WiIIkie Describes
Washington S Gain
As Boom Town. Sign
Republican Nominee
Pluns to Discuss It
In Coming Compoien
" the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo,
Aug. 2.-Wendell L. Willkie thinks
the coming election will be decided
on issues rather than party lines.
Willkie made that clear yesterday
In a joint press conference with
William Allen White, the Emporia
(Kans) editor.
Willkie remarked to reporters that
new census figures had demon
strated that Washington, d. c., was
a boom town." While many cities
lost population during the last
decade. the nominee said, Washing
ton gained.
II shall have something to say
about that during the coming cam
paign."
Questioned by reporters, Willkie
said he believed fully half the
voters are independent-they cross
party lines very easily"
There used to be pride among
many people about their party par
tisanship," Willkie continued. Now
they are proud Of their independ-
ence."
White Senses Drift.
White expressed a similar view,
telling reporters that independent
voters would aid Willkie In the No.
vember election.
"The general drift is toward us.
I think it is in the stars" White
added.
White. was asked whether he
meant that Willkie would be elected.
He replied that the Republican
nominee "or some one equally good
will be elected"
"The general drift is toward U.S."
White concluded. II have been con-
vinced that voters don't just hang
on to parties.
"The independents are a big,
definite minority that might become
a majority in any election"
viii Meet Martin.
Willkie arranged to spend most Of
Saturday going over Republican Or
ganizational problems with Chair
man Joe Martin of the national
committee and other party leaders.
The nominee gave his press con-
ference a definite impression that
he would tell the organization
leaders his plans, but that he would
map out most of his campaign for
himself.
Waldo Rogers, Republican can
didate for Congress in New Mexico,
told Willkie he had an excellent
chance of carrying that State be-
cause many New Mexico Democrats
resented the treatment Vice Presi-
dent Garner received at the Demo-
cratic convention.
The nominee made public a tele-
gram from Representative Robert
G. Allen, Democrat, of Pennsylvania,

Wild Plane Stages
Rodeo, Ties Up Field
BY the Associated Press.

Gs tHe hsSoCihteo fIeSs
DALLAS, Aug. "A runaway
Army training plane staged a 15o-
horsepower rodeo yesterday in the
middle of Love Field.
Flying Cadet Harold F. Beery Of
Salem, Iowa, decided to start his
motor again after landing. He gave
the propeller a twirl, the motor
roared and the ship lurched into ac-
ton.
Cadet Beery, tossed aside, watched
his plane whip in circles toward the
middle of the huge airport, where
it spun noisily for the next half
hour. Three air liners and at least
10 other Army and private planes
were kept in the air by the field
dispatcher.
Finally tire blew out. The crazy
