WASHINGTON E
By George Dixon

WASHINGTON, April PSI
" went up TO New York the
other day, TO make my annual
crop survey, and got a distinct
impression. The glst of it was
that New York-largely speak
ing-is about the only commun-
ity in the country not yet fully
awake TO the possibility that
Thomas L. Dewey may be the
next president of the United
States.
This is strange, when you
think Of it, because Manhattan
should be the most Dewey con-
scious spot in the land. He
never really operated anywhere
else until he became governor.
Voters in the farthest hinter-
lands can tell you all about
Dewey-and do at the drop of a
hat-even if they can't name
the mayor preceding LaGuardia,
who, by the way, was John
Patrick O'Brien.

lies of their members is some

Hillman has talked In terms of

ers in the 1914 elections. These
figures obviously represent a

and they are set down here
merely As rejecting the proper
tions of Philip MurEay,s- and
Sidney Hillman's political ambi-
tions.

sltish fund.
MANY units Of the Go have
already imposed a compulsory
aSseSSment upon their members
for the support of the Clio po-

action.
IT WILL be recalled that ex-
tensive naval forces attacked
Tarawa to soften it for inva-
sion.
For nearly two days and two
nights battleships poured shells
into the island, wrecking it's
installations and driving its
Japanese defenders to shelter.
Sea power did its job of Com
ditiening" Tarawa as effectively
as air power did it in Casino.
Nevertheless, when we in
vaded the island we suffered
what were perhaps the greatest
casualties thus far sustained in
taking any fortified position in
the Pacific.
For a while the outcome
seemed in doubt. In the end we
took the island, whereas we did
not take Casino. Why this diff
ference in ultimate results?
The answer is that Tarawa,
being an island. could not be
reinforced by the enemy.
We need only imagine Tarawa
TO be connected with the main
land, so that its defenders could
receive a continuous reinforce
ment in men, supplies and mu-
nitions.
In that case we would have
had as little luck in taking Ia
rawa, Notwithstanding the thor
ough conditioning by battleships,
as we did in taking Casino
after its conditioning from the
skies.
Let II be understood once
and for all that air power is
not a jack-of-all trades. It can
not take territory mile by mile
or occupy wrecked towns street
by street.

Double KIDNAPPING
Battles Police
Two States Fail in Hunt
for Ohio, Detroit Tots

Police Of two states, tracing
every clue, continued their in
tensive search Saturday for the
henna-haired, turbaned nurse
maid, suspected of being the kid
naper of baby Paul Jevahirian Jr.
and little Ronnie Thompson Of
Dayton, o.
While the best leads conferred
the quest in the northwestern
part of Michigan, Ohio and Mich
igan police were overlooking no
clue elsewhere.
Tips from residents of the De-
troit and Dayton areas were re-
ceiving careful attention. These
reports were spurred by total
of S1,700 in rewards offered for
the return of both children, and
apprehension of the kidnaper.
Several times in the last two
weeks, hopes of the searchers
have been raised by apparently
good tips. only to be dashed as
they failed.
Little Paul Jevahirian, stolen 16
months ago from the home of his
grandparents. would be 2 years
and A. months old now. The
Thompson child was 20 months
old when his newly-hired nurse
maid walked away with him sew
eral weeks ago.
The maid is in her early 40s,
about 5 feet 6 inches tall, and has
hennaed hair which she covers
with a turban because the dye has
made 1t unsightly. Her left arm
is carried stiffly across her abb
domen and she speaks with a
drawl.
