HERALD AND NEWS, KLAMATH FALLS, OREGON PACE TWO lUn fr, His DEWEY'S VOTE HARVEST GOES WAY OVER TOP (Continued From Page One) nominating Dewey, an east erner, lor president with War ren, iar westerner, as the pos sible vice presidential choice. The forces of Gov. John W. Bricker continued their fight nonetheless. Middling Charged Gov. DwiKht H. Green of Illi nois had the job of officially welcoming delegates to the windy city in a speech that ac cused the Roosevelt administra tion of "political meddling" with the armed forces in running the war. Green declared that republi cans would give the professional fighting men a free hand. Governor Green denounced "New Dealers" as seeking to remain in power on a "win the war" slogan and asserted: "The winning of the war is uppermost in the mind of every American . . . There is no 'win the war' party in America and public opinion has so properly rebuked the attempts of the new dealers to grab that slogan that they have almost complete ly abandoned it." He said a republican triumph this year would "strike dread into the hearts of the enemy." Military Freedom "They will know," Green said, "that the government of this nation has passed into the hands of men determined to cut all the red tape and bureaucra tic interference with the trained leaders of the United States army and navy. Those officers will have in the conduct of the war the unstinted support of the republican administration, free from the political meddling of second-string bureaucrats." He praised the delegates as "unswayed by the weird pre tense that an 'indispensable man" exists" and said they were dedicated to work not only for "the heralded objectives of the 'four freedoms' but resolved to reestablish here in America the 33 freedoms guaranteed to all citizens under the constitution." The delegates were undemon strative as they hunted out their seats. They blinked under burn ing beams of electric light 275,000 watts altogether, the management said that stream ed down on the platform from the bunting-hung balconies. Chicago was hot today, and the Stadium was steaming like a big coffee cup before the for mal proceedings started. Spectators and delegates join ed in singing "Home on the Range." About that time, i a story came in over the Associ ated Press teletype in the AP's platform working section re porting tnat Dewey reached his office later than usual today but otherwise made no change in his schedule. Dewty is known to have mad train reservations that will place him in Chicaao in time for an acceptance speech l nurtday. 'Among notables on the plat form was Will Hays, of the mo tion picture industry, who was national party chairman in the Harding campaign of 1920. - High ovehead hung a huge picture of Abraham Lincoln, the party's first winner, barelv visible through a haze of to bacco smoke.
