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:

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.

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.
