PACE EIGHT
EVASIVENESS
OF DEIS HIT
BY GOV
WEY
By JACK BELL
EN ROUTE TO ST. LOUIS
WITH DEWEY, Oct. 16 UP)
Gov. Thomas E. Dewey shaped a
new attack today on the admin
istration's demobilization plan
to supplement his assertion that
President Roosevelt is attempt
ing to "hide behind evasions by
his associates" on GOP-raised
campaign issues.
James C. Hagcrty, the New
York governor's executive assist
ant, indicated that Dewey plan
ned to reply probably in his St.
Louis speech tonight to a letter
written by Maj. Gen. Lewis B.
Hershey, director of selective
service, to Mr. Roosevelt.
Dewey asserted in his Septem
ber 7 speech in Philadelphia that
Hershey had said it would be
necessary to demobilize the
armed forces gradually after the
war, attributing to Hershey the
statement "we can keep people in
the army about as cheaply as we
could create an agency for (hem
when they get out."
Hershey wrote Mr. Roosevelt
' that this statement, made at a
V. news conference in Denver last
'August, represented "personal
opinion in a field over which I
have no responsibility." He add
ed that it was so understood at
the time.
Since then, Hershey said the
war and navy departments have
informed a congressional com
mittee that "the needs of the
armed forces to defeat Japan and
the availability of shipping
would be the only regulating fac
tors governing rate of demobili
zation of personnel after the de
feat of Germany."
Dewey asserted yesterday that
"Mr. Roosevelt confesses that
every single statement I made in
my Oklahoma City speech was
exactly correct down to the last
period and comma" in a docu
ment released through the White
House Saturday purporting to
answer the GOP nominee's accu
sations. .
"Mr. Roosevelt's failure to pre
pare this country and the result
ing price we have had to pay is
established out of the mouths of
his own followers," Dewey de
clared in a formal statement.
The document released by the
White House listed 10 statements
made by Dewey in his Septem
ber 25 Oklahoma City speech
bearing on the state of prepared
ness for war, the difficulties en
countered in the war production.
program, ana statements made
by the president before the Unit
ed States became involved In hos
tilities. The release said the republi
can nominee distorted quotations
by the president, Gen. George C.
Marshall, army chief of staff,
Gen. H. H. Arnold, army air
forces commanding general, Sen
ator Harry S. Truman, the demo
cratic vice presidential nominee,
and others by lifting them out
of their context.

Spirii of Former Witch
Br ALEX H. SINGLETON
SCRAPFAGGOT GREEN,
England, Oct. 16 (A1) In an eerie
end to one of England'! weirdest
witch tales, the villagers of this
little Essex town have driven a
new stake through the grave of a
woman burned at the stake and
buried two centuries ago. to peg
the spirit they say disturbed
their nights.
Over the telephone to London,
Town Councillor Arthur Sykes
told how he and seven of his
neighbors recently rolled back
the big boulder that marked the
witch's last resting place and, he
added, "We had the first quiet
night's sleep in many a day."
This is Sykes' story and, he
added a bit petulantly: "I'm a
practical man, but there's been a
lot of queer things going on
around here."
They started "the queer
things after a bulldoier, widen
ing a road so that military ve
hicles could use it, pushed aside
the boulder which generations of
the townspeople believed mark
ed the resting place of the
"witch."
What sort of ''queer things?"
"All sorts." said Sykes. "Bells
ringing at midnight. Clocks go
ing wrong. Chickens disappear
ing. Things being moved and
no sense to it."
WARD
, .'j;;,.-wr.d: JuyVf.T.;.. l,v..-.
Some of the townsfolk dcfl
nately were brooming alarmed,
he reported, "and they wondered
what would happen next." So
they decided to take action and
consulted Harry Price, who has
written a book on "spirits."
He furnished them, Sykes
said, with the .Instructions for
setting this one to rest. The vil
lage did the rest, even to measur
ing the grave "by the Inch," said
Sykes, to be sure of doing it
proper" before driving the stake
and rolling back the boulder.
"Mind you," he said, "I'm a
practical man, but ..."

For years, Ward Week has been a tradition. Millions
of American families have awaited its coming each
Spring and Fall. Months ahead Montgomery Ward
store managers in every part of the country planned
together, bought together to make Ward Week a time
of exceptional values. Then came the war ,t, with its
urgent call for materials and production. An event like
vWardWeek,withitshugeassortmentsof civilian goods,'
seemed out of step with the nation's march towards
victory. So, Ward Week was shelved . . . until now.
Today merchandise is still far from plentiful and (
we urge you to buy only what you need. But once again
we can invite you to shop and save in Ward Week.
In every department of our store, you will find timely
values. See them all but, please, buy only the things
you need and let your neighbors have their share.
