TElf MEDrORD MAIL TRIBUNE Wednesday, Sepf. 20, 1944 DEWEY CRITICIZES THEORY THAT F. R. IS INDISPENSABLE Future Peace and Prosperity Should Not Hinge on One Man Says GOP Candidate Portland, Ore., Sept. 20 U.R) Gov. Thomas E. Dewey turn ed south to California today for more campaign speeches follow ing last night's appeal to voters In the November election to re ject the theory of an "indispen sablo man" and the argument that future peace and prosperity depend upon re-election of Pres ident Roosevelt. The republican presidential nominee made his challenge of the "Indispensable man" Issue before an overflow audience of more than 7,000 persons In the Portland Ice coliseum and over a nation-wide radio hookup. "None Indispensable" Dewey opened his blast against the "indispensable man" claim by declaring flatly that: "There are no indispensable men." "If our republic, after 150 years of self-government, is de pendent upon the endless con tinuance of one man in office, then the hopes which animated the men who fought for the dec laration of Independence and the constitution have indeed come to nothing," he said. Dewey's address was made after a series of delays caused by two wrecks on the Great Northern railroad between Se attle and Portland. Dewey's special train rammed the rear end of a stalled regu lar passenger train at the scene of the earlier wreck shortly be fore noon. Dewey Uninjured Dewey and his wife and most members of the official party escaped personal injury. The overnight stay at Portland was lengthened to allow time for refitting the special train and replacing broken glass. Dewey will confer with Gov. Earl Warren and other political leaders in California and also will make two major addresses before he starts the long swing back across the country to Al bany, N. Y.

"The peace and prosperity of America and of the world can never depend on one man," the GOP candidato told the nation last night. Essentials Listed The essential requirements for peace and prosperity, he countered, are three-fold. He listed: 1 "Unity In our government and strength and unity among our people." 2 "Harmonious action be tween the President and con gress." 3 "A strong and vigorous America with Jobs for all." None of them, he added, have been evidenced In 12 years of the Roosevelt administration. All of them can be realized, he promised, by a change in ad ministrations next January. "The plain fact is," Dewey said, "that for 12 straight years the New Deal has given this country a continued demonstra tion of quarreling, dissension and disunity. It has set group against group, race against race, and class against class." As examples of disunty In government Dewey recalled the quarrel between Vice President Henry A. Wallace and Secretary of Commerce Jesse Jones over activities of the foreign econ omic administration "in which they publicly called each other 'obstructionists' and 'liar' and the quarrels within the War Production Board which were climaxed recently by sending WPB Chairman Donald M. Nel son to China. Ickes' Tirades Tire "We have listened without surcease to the shrill, abusive tirades of Mr. Ickes (Secretary of Interior Harold L. Ickes)," he said. "We have heard Vice President Wallace recklessly denouncing unspecified Ameri cans as fascists." "An administration which cannot unite its own house even in war can never unite the nation for the tremendous peace tasks ahead of us . . . the one indispensable thing to achiev ing this teamwork and devotion, this unity in government we have so long lacked, is a change from the indispensable man." As an example of lack of har mony the Whito House and con gress, Dewey recalled the Pres ident's veto of the 1944 tax bill last February which provoked Senate Democratic Leader Al ben W. Barkley, of Kentucky, to voice a vigorous protest on the senate floor. "My opponent has demon strated that ho cannot work with the present democratic congress," Dewey said. "How in the name of the future of our country can he be expected to get along with the republican congress which will certainly be elected this fall?" Job Lack Unsolved As for Job opportunity, Dewey repeated his complaint that after seven years in office with "unprecedented power," and spending 5(1 billion dollars, BLUE Goose . .1 - : . ..... .. -w- thousands of our other smaller own world-famous duCom ice and r "there still were 10 million tnv jjCmpioyca. vve Ilt-'CU lu ruviso aim jnur cally reduce the unnecessary burdens and handicaps placed by government upon the Job making machinery of our econ omic system,". Dewey contin ued. "We need to revise our pres ent tax policies which now de ter every kind of business en terprise which makes Jobs. We need a drastic change in gov ernment policies which now In cite labor disputes and place handicaps upon responsible la bor leaders in their work . . . We need, above all, a govern ment which believes In the fu ture of the American people." Dewey argued that President Roosevelt will not be indispen sable to writing or preserving of the peace terms either. dJOCALS Rummage Sale Daughters of Nile Patrol will hold a rummage sale Friday and Saturday in the Masonic building, West Main and Holly.

Phone 5214 TELEGRAM HOT REPLY JOHN LEViS Cincinnati, Sept. 20 (UP) United Mine Workers' President John L. Lewis charged today that Interior Secretary Harold L. Ickes Is a "political office holder, grown fat In public of fice," and denied charges by Ickes that coal production has been lagging. In a reply to a telegram from Ickes charging that the nation's mines are not producing as much coal as they should despite man power shortages Lewis said that Ickes' statement was based ' on absolute ignorance of mining practice and Is a display of per sonal malice unbecoming a cabi net officer. "What I would like to know," Ickes wired, "is whether you, as president of the United Mine Workers of America propose to live up to your long vaunted role of abiding by your con tracts or whether It Is your pur pose to evade the compliance of your contract?" Lewis Answers Lewis answered that Ickes had failed to consider the UMW's request that safety measures rec ommended by the U. S bureau of mines be adopted in all mines taken over by the government and then added: ' May we in quire whether that statement was cleared through Sidney (Sidney Hillman)?" "No, Haro'd. Our message was not political. Bread and butter are not political Dead men in coal mines are not political. They are elemental human con siderations that the shallow va-! porings of a professions' politi cian cannot hold in check," Lew is said. "The mine workers of this country through this convention are asking for fait treatment from you who are a political of fice holder, grown fat in public office. Do they get it, Harold; do they get It?" Livestock Portland, Ore., Sept 20 (UP) Livestock: Cattle. 200: calves. 50. Active, atronK. Canner-cuttrr cows now 25 f' 50c higher than last week.
