Three Prospects
For Presidency
at Sessions

Mackinac Island, Mich, Sept. G.
Forty-six members OF the Republi-
can Post War Advisory Council to-
day were preparing for formal
op 2ning OF sessions which it Is
expected will provide the principal
planks in the 1914 presidential
campaign platform.
New governors, 10 in number,
have already. indicated that they
are desireous OF fortnight action
as are prospective presidential can
didates, among them Thomas f.
Dewey, New York, John w. Brick
err, Ohio, and Earl Warren, Califor-
mia.
Dewey asserted that for 100
years there had been a mutual
understanding between this coun-
try and Great Britain. and he be-
lieved that IL must continue.
Dewey also advocated the joint
use OF the armies OF the two de.
mocracies to maintain the peace.
He added that before the end Of
the war he hoped for a complete
understanding between this coun.
try and Russia. He said that all
Americans were hoping that Rus
STA would go to war with Japan.
For 100 years we practically
depended upon the British Navy -
protect us. and Americans never
realized until 1910 and the Battle
Of Britain how much We depended
upon the British" Dewey said.
"The Nazis might have taken Bri-
tain and that would have present
ed a crisis for u.s."
While advocating close alliance
with the British, Dewey said he
believed that the Constitution
should be followed and the Senate
must retain the power OF veto OF
treaties. He spoke If the "brazen-
ress" OF those who would circum-
vent Senate approval of agreements
and treaties by the use OF the
exc 'utive order. :.

now thinking in terms of the world
rather than of their own country.
but did not believe that this would
last after the peace came.

Bricker said. land the sooner we
get away from rationing the better
off we will be.
"The people will not stand for
RECOMMENDATION once the war ends
and the emergency period is con
Guided"
Gov. Warren said he believed the
foreign program should be forgot
ten in the coming campaign, as the
raising OF such an issue would
serve to divide the country and
the Allies. He did. however, say
that now was the time to discuss
the foreign policy In the hope that
the two major parties could go to
the people with a program which
both could support and which
would be understood by the public.
