By the Associated Press.

BUENOS AIRES, Sept 9.-The
Foreign Ministry announced tonight
that Argentina is withdrawing its
delegate from the Emergency Com
mittee for inter-American Political

leo, Venezuela. Chile and Argentina.
The Argentine delegate was Mi
quel Angel Chiappe, counselor of

sented only his own government ra-
ther than the American govern
ments as whole. He has been alb
sent from Is consecutive meetings
but attended the latest session early
this week and then returned to
Buenos Aires for consultation with
his government.

Hershey Is Silent
On Dewey Attack

Maj. Gen. Lewis B. Hershey, Sc
lective service director, had no COM
ment to make yesterday on Gov.
Thomas E. Dewey's denunciation of
a statement attributed to the gen.
eral declaring it would be as cheap
to keep men in the Army as to
create a Federal agency for their
employment when demobilized.
Gen. Hershey would not elaborate
or discuss its accuracy, it was said
atshis Office.
T. The selective service head made
the controversial comment, the As
sociated Press reported, in response
to a reporters question at a press
conference In Denver August 21. He
was quoted Is saying demobilizatioa
necessarily would have to be grad
ual and added:
I'VE can keep people in the Army
about as cheaply as we can create
an agency for them when they are
out"
Gov. Dewey assailed this senti-
ment In the opening speech of his
transcontinental tour at Philadel-
phia Thursday, remarking that it
was attributed to the selective serv-
ice director and apparently had ad-
m1nlstration sanction.

There has been some speculation
that Mr.. Murphy may 60 to Quebec.
The whole range of German control
problems will be one of the most
important subjects for discussion by
the two leaders.
MIR. Murphy told reporters after

End Of Hardship Goal.
He said that in contrast to the
New Deal program, the Republican
party proposed to re-establish lib
erty at home, and added:
Our goal also Is to prevent
hardship and poverty in America
to provide opportunity and Sc
curity-and to promote social bet
terment.. Such goal can be solidly
achieved only if we give full scope
to Individual incentive and Amer
lean ingenuity and turn our backs
finally and completely on alien
PHILOSOPHERS Of government"
Then Gov. Bricker listed four
steps to be considered in a con-
structive program:
First, We must clean our gov
ernmental house Of the debris with
which it is now cluttered and which
has been accumulating during IL
years Of the New Deal. To clean
house we must get rid Of needless
bureaucracy.
Second, we must restore respon-
sible cabinet government in Wash-
ington. AL agencies, boards, bureaus
and commissions which are not
performing essential governmental
functions must be Immediately
hquidated. Cabinet members must,
and under the administration Of
Thomas E. Dewey will, be chosen
on the basis Of their qualifications
for the job. They will be charged
with full authority and they will
be held personally responsible.
Would Halt Capitalization.
Third. the Republican party pro-
poses to end the reckless trend to-
ward centralization of all power in
the Federal Government. Unless
that trend is ended, State and local
governments sooner or later will be
reduced to provincial administrative
units - mere satellites revolving
about an all-powerful national
planet.
Finally. the Republican party
proposes to create in this country
an atmosphere of opportunity for
the individual. The one great
problem after the war is jobs-hon-
est jobs-productive jobs. We pro-
pose to put men and women to
work IN private industry as prompt
ly as possible after victory. We
propose to give special attention
to those who have served in our
armed forces"
