Praaa Mambar Audit Buraau Circulation Tadays Roundup j By MALCOLM EPLttY NOMINATION of Governor Dewey for pres. dent at the GOP convention opening today J in Chicago, seemingly a foregone conclusion, i should prove highly acceptable to Oregon repub- jjflicans. They gave Dewey a jt tremendous write-in vote at the primary, despite the lack of it definite Dewey campaign v in this state. That vote certainly indicated sentiment in Oregon for Dewey as the man to head the ticket, and a similar showing was made for Earl Warren for tho vice-presidential spot. In case you've forgotten, here's the way the primary vote went: Stassen, 6061; .AJUv Br PAUL MALLON CHICAGO, June 26 The logic and weight of events here forecasts certainly "Dewey and warren, a tie ttcKet first and only Dre dieted in this column as far back at January 28, and repeated frequently since then in the face of seemingly adverse surface events.) Behind the Dewey-Bricker convention fight and the per sistent Warren withdrawals is this following guiding repub lican situation which has not changed materially in the past six months: .The average leader-delegate who has come to this national party assembly may n o t b e personally fond of the New MALLON York state governor. They describe their re actions in various ways. Some say he is not "amenable." Others say that he is too lone wolf ish. Still more questioned his republicanism and his party consciousness, and a few of these oven went earlier to Albany frankly asking that question. They received an interesting re ply. Dewey s grandfather, they were torn, was one of the founders of. the republican party, His father was a county chairman, a republican postmaster, West Pointer and newspaperman who got into active politics. Each questioner was thus invited to compare his own family party record against such an unusual one. EPLEY , President Dewey, 50,001; Bricker, 3018; Willkie, 3333. J Vice president Warren, 12,548; Stassen, 2155; t Bricker, 1184; Dewey, 929; Willkie, 483. J Remembering that those are write-in votes, r (there were no names on the ballot), it would J s e e m there should be supreme satisfaction r among Oregonians with a ticket headed by Dewey, and even greater enthusiasm if Warren is there with him. e J Furloughs Halp Us, Too A PROBLEM that caused considerable con- r cern here in connection with the opening of the Marine Barracks has been partially solved, at least, by the adopted policy of grant J ing immediate 30-day overseas furloughs to the marines arriving here. J What had many of us worried was the prob H ability of a heavy immediate visitation from S relatives and close friends of the marines upon " their arrival at Klamath Falls from Pacific com " bat areas. It wasn't that these folks wouldn't be welcome here, but we were afraid the com J munity simply would be unable to furnish hotel a rooms or apartments for them. That would cre J ate a most unfavorable impression of the com- munity among the visitors. . But the 30-day furloughs, which are being " granted immediately to all returning marines - physically able to make the trips to their homes, J change the picture. It appears most of the ma- rines will visit their relatives and friends at home, instead of at Klamath Falls, and only a small percentage of the previously expected visitation is now likely. J The barracks, of course, will still bring many ft visitors here, but not in such great numbers, and the "housing jam-will be less serious. It is . this community's job' to see that visitors who come here in connection with our military in JJ stallations are made welcome and feel the warm hospitality which we must extend to the service , JJ men. Our chances of doing that properly are improved by the furlough policy. ' Guest Housa J "NNE of the features at the Marine Barracks V which Klamath bond buyers will see next JJ Sunday is a "guest house" at the near end of the barracks area. This guest house is intended for relatives of marines who are seriously ill. The guest house is a pleasant place, with a lounge (including a fireplace) in the center and J wings with several dozen rooms. It will be seen from all of this that the navy J and marine corps are not forgetting family reta r tionships and are treating that phase of the program with sympathy and good taste. .... j; A Railroader Retires A MAN well known to many railroaders and J r business men here is W. L. Hack, superin m tendent of the Sacramento division of the South- ern Pacific. After 48 years continuous service with the company, Mr. Hack is retiring this week. Mr. Hack's story is one that typifies a success j ful American career. He started as a track " laborer and car cleaner at Indio, Calif., when m he was 15 years of age. He became a locomotive J engineer, road foreman, assistant superintend- ent, and finally superintendent, first of the Salt Lake division. He became superintendent of the Sacramento division in 1925 and his di- vision embraced the Klamath area for about . five years, in the thirties. His ability has been JJ devoted in the past few years to keeping a vast volume of war-time traffic moving. Mr. Hack retires with the good wishes of all who know of him and his able work, and surely with the personal satisfaction that goes with the completion of a successful career. NT .... Our good friend Scott Warren, noting that t this scribe took credit the other day for brincine- about, through prayer, the late spring rains, came up with a Biblical quotation to the effect that the prayers of the wicked availeth nothing, w A prayer from this corner, he said, could J produce little more than a sprinkle. "New" Party? YET the knowledge persists that Dewey is looking forward to a "new" republican party (not without authority is this idea) and naturally there is some general partisan recal citrance which has worked in the favor of Ohio's Governor Bricker, and held the conven tion in suspense. Underneath these mentioned considerations, however, is the primary fact that the repub licans must carry New York state in order to win the election. In that state, the average voter or leader looks on Dewey as the party leader, and no one will say Bricker or anyone else would have a better chance to win there. This is the argument the Dewey leaders have used on the delegates with unanswerable effect upon the unlnstructed bulk of delegates. What has hammered the point home, however, Is the fact no one needs to mention, namely, that any republican leader is courting danger being caught off such a high front-running band wagon. Bread and butter politics, or any other kind, requires state, county, and city leaders to want to be associated and identified with a winner. Consequently, Ohio's Governor Bricker, who has been out meeting these captains and lieu tenants of the party and has acquired numerous personal friends among them, has found him self faced with a difficult if not an insuperable condition. It seems, therefore, clear to me that . only a sensational or shocking event, which would upset the situation, could make his nom ination possible. .... Draft Warren Move THE underlying facts behind the movement to draft Warren, the California governor, are equally plain and forceful to the delegate lead ers. Warren Is regarded by them as a sincere . person, and his various attempts to declare himself out of the national picture are recog nized as not just window dressing or the type of coyness assumed to extract a more pressing invitation. As has been widely noted. Warren's lieutenant governor is running for the senate, and if e himself is elected vice president, he might lose top control of the state, or at least lose personal control of the work he hat started. Consequently, he would be primarily pleased to remain only as keynoter of the con vention. But, to win the election, the republicans must also carry California. It is a difficult state to gauge at present, but most authorities would give the edge now to .Roosevelt. Warren's per sonal popularity is such that, if he were nom inated for second place, the experts would turn immediately and give the republicans the best chance. What has not been so widely noted is the tact that, under California law, Warren could appoint an interim governor, and thus ehnnu his own man to carry on in his place. Of course, if the republican ticket does not win the No vember election, he would retain his governor ship, as would Dewey. Therefore, he could rea sonably accept the proposed draft despite his personal inclinations. .... Would Bring Power CERTAINLY no other candidate could bring so much needed political power to the ticket, at least not in the dangerous spot. Ohio, for instance, is not regarded as such dangerous ground as California. Some movement has, or will shortly be started to promote the carpen ters union chief, William Hutcheson. 'Indiana. for the vice presidency on the ground that his union laoor influence would be helpful, and there is no question it would be to a consider able extent. However, the other candidates, Stassen of Minnesota, Griswold of Nebraska, Dlrksen and Green of Illinois, etc., come from the right states.. It may be true, conventions do not always follow the logic and weight of circumstances. Some are stampeded and upset. Nothing is abso luely sure in politics until long after the signing and sealing, and, in fact, until the actual de livering. Yet I personally feel sure these con siderations are the motivating influences behind this convention and likely to control its decision. t.. in JW ., , SIDE GLANCES 140 D0l- 1000 '"i"""1 '" P""iyiv.nii T.TZT t f t-Vi iA i f snaHored hom.t line main toad o Drvoib i. yi'l-rt i V- ' i'Jxl t dn """i d.itructlon throughout .torn Ptnni Wt k ' rST?
