Votes for Dewey
COP Leaders Agree State
Delegation viii 90
for New York Governor
Michigan Politics
BY FRANK MORRIS

Michigan'S 3S votes in the Re-
publican national convention next
year will be cast for Gov. Thomas
Dewey of New York, despite the
fact that Dewey has Scotched all
efforts here to start a movement
in his behalf.
The election Tuesday was the
cincher, as far as local COP lead
erS are concerned.
Dewey is their man. Before the
Republican sweep IN New York
state and in local contes
throughout the East. the Michigan
leaders were content to take
Dewey's word that he did not
want 10 he nominated. They were
waiting for strawS in the wind.
Willkie had a considerable fol-
lowing, having carried this state
against Roosevelt three years ago
Gov. Kelly has been partial to his
friend, Gov. Bricker of Ohio.
The road now is clear. II
Dewey is able 10 upset the COM
bined plans of President Roosevelt
and James Farley. as he did
Tuesday, local Republicans feel il
would be an unforgivable over
sight if they did not Jump now on
the wagon of a man who after
all, can sing Michigan, My Mich
igan' without his tongue in his
cheek.
Bricker supporters here are
about ready TO give up. Willkie
has considerable support among
the rank and file, buu none re-
mains among the party workers
who attend conventions and rule
the organization.
DIGNAN CLOSE FRIEND
The principal Dewey flag-waver
has been Secretary of State Dig
nan of Owosso, who has been q
lifelong friend of the parents OF
the New York governor. Dignar
would be cheering aloud for the
former OwosSo boy whom he
used 10 take pheasant hunting eX.
cept that the governor told Dig.
nan in no casual terms not &c
embarrasS him by starting a pres.
idential movement here.
Gaging the elections Tuesday
Michigan party leaders are now
convinced that Dewey can carry
New York, Pennsylvania. Ohio
Michigan and Illinois in 1914
These are the key states. They
are enough to elect any candidate
KELLY CHAIRMAN
SO their attitude is:
PAY no attention to Dewey's
conversation. Michigan will be
battling for a hometown boy"
Gov. Kelly, of course, will be
chairman Of the delegation anc
will have much 10 say regarding
the disposition of the states IS
votes But Kelly'S candidate, Gov
BriCker, has just about disap.
peared over the horizon anc
Dewey's friends expect Kelly
soon will be enlisted in the Dewey
movement.
The Michigan argument is that
Dewey will not refuse the noml.

history has declined the honor oil

The ever growing American
airpower in the Pacific and India
is the darkest cloud hanging over
Japan and overshadows all mill
tary thought and plans.
JAP CHIEFS WORRIED
II enters into the deliberations
of the imperial Japanese army
and navy general Stats more than
any other aspect of the war.
1t is all the more bitter with
the realization that like Germany,
Japan is slipping in the air and
sees no way either of checking
the growing American numerical
superiority or paralleling it in
production because Of Japan 5
lesser resources.
Relatively less attention is be-
ing paid to the construction of
air raid shelters than concentrate
ing upon highly organized fire.
fighting
Japans aerial defense largely
centers upon a great number OF
fighter planes. This increasing
American air superiority preoccu-
pies the minds of the japanese
general stats far more than
Anglo American land and sea OPP
erations.
The Pacific theater of war is in
the form Of a rough triangle with
Japan as the apex, with the Solo
mons as the left angle and the
western point of Sumatra. 1900
miles away, as the right angle.

PLENTY OF SHIPS

While losses of ships from
American and British submarines
have been heavy there are still
many vessels for bringing in food
to Japan and add 10 her re-
serves for that anticipated long
war.
II is believed that the Japanese
government is deliberately seek
ing 70 find the minimum rations
on which the Japanese can work
and fight.
The adoption of policy OF
Spartan economy is almost be-
coming a national religion.
Japanese foreign policy. ever
since Shigemitsu. probably her
ablest statesman today. became
foreign minister. has been con-
centrated on bringing about an
END of the war between Germany
and Soviet Russia
There are a number of high

possible way Of averting an Axis
defeat in Europe and the Pacific.
All efforts, thus far accord
ing 10 reliable sources in a posi-

of the obstinancy of Hitler. who
has not only rejected Tokyo's
suggestion but is said TO have Bit
terly resented Japan's intrusion.

NOT TRUSTING JUNGLES

The Japanese are not trusting
to the Jungle as a barrier.
Surabaya, the former Dutch
naval base has been cleared and
heavily fortified as have num-
Der of other places in Java.
The Sunda Straits and the Ma
lacca Straits are heavily mined.
We zigzagged very slowly
through the Sunda Straits plotted
through the dark by two torpedo
boats.
A direct approach to Singapore
by any fleet seems out of ques-
ton. The Japanese have powerful
air units stationed at Singapore,
again taking a lesson from the
experience of the British.
High pressure work has been
going on for months strengthen
ing Corregidor.
In order that nothing OF this
rebuilding work might be seen
from the repatriation ship Tiea
Maru. it was not permitted TO
enter Manila Bay but lay off San
Fernando where repatriates from
Manila were taken aboard.

The Anglo-American strategy
which has concentrated on Europe
first for the initial two years OF
the war. has given Japan ample
time 10 dig in and consolidate its
military conquestS.
They have not wasted that
time.
Competent military experts who
have been there told me that
Singapore today is much stronger,
especially in its northern back
door, than when in possession OF
the British.

Eastman Requests
Abolition Of Civilian
Leaves for Holidays

Defense Transportation Director
Eastman announced today that as
means of relieving congestion en-
trains and buses he has requested
Government agencies and private
employers to refrain from granting
vacation leave to employees where
travel would be involved between
December II and January 10.
Mr.. Eastman also asked Govern
ment and business to make special
effort to curtail official travel during
this period, if trips could be post
poned without impairing the war
effort. Government agencies like
wise were asked to refuse all re-
quests for speakers at conventions
held during the holiday season and
to avoid calling meetings involving
travel during that time.
Mr.. Eastman pointed out that
earlier in the year he had asked
Government agencies and private
industry to schedule employe vaca-
tlons so as to avoid holiday periods.

Mr.. EaStman's request to Govern

one he riade last year.
The armed services. he said will
cooperate during the critical period
by limiting the number of furloughs
granted.
Letters were addressed by MI.
Eastman TO private employers
through their trade association As
well as to all Government agencies
asking a curb on holiday travel. A
portion of the letter to Federal
agencies follows:
Military and essential civilian de-
mandS on intercity transportation

But the average man isn't tied
to house at all
Plenty of men, living in nearly
perfect houses, look back on the
dingy little apartment they had
when they were first married as
the incest home they have ever
known. They don't remember
the color of the walls or the in
convenient kitchen. They re-
member that they were happy
there and that in those days their
wives put their comfort and hap
piness above everything else.
HER HOUSE, HIS HOME
If the wives continue to do that
in their perfect houses" - we'll
and good. 'ut if they become so
absorbed in keeping perfect
house perfect that it becomes
their main interest in life-their
husbands are bound to resent it.
SO it is mistake for any wom-
an to think that a house means
to husband what it does to her.
If it is financial burden, or if
it ties them down too completely,
he may even secreC.s loathe it.
Women can become tied to
houses. But not men. They only
become tied to homes - homes in
which tlcir happiness and their
comfort come first.
