Clean House
Now Seen As
DeweyTheme

ENROUTE TO ALB A N 4
WITH DEWEY, Sept. 28-(P-
Nearing Albany and a pause in
his presidential campaign, Gov.
Thomas E. Dewey appeared to-
day TO be focusing his attacks
on the New Deal more and more
on appeals to voters to help
him "clean house in Washing.
ton.
In train-stop addresses to rail
road yard crowds, the G. o. p.
nominee has emphasized that If
the Republicans win in Novem-
Der he would sweep New Deal
ers out of the Government from
top to bottom.
There is a job in Washing
ton which I would particularly
like to do" he told a Muncie,
Ind, crowd yesterday. Il should
like to start the best house
cleaning job the Government
ever got"
The candidate apparent ly
found responses satisfactory as
he named Secretary of Interior
Ickes, Secretary OF Labor Perk-
ms and others among those he
would remove from influence in
National affairs. In more than
half-a-dozen train p torn
talks, such references have been
greeted by yells from the
crowds.
Dewey was warmed up to
these responses, evidently con-
WINGED that people who Gimp
box cars and trucks, perch atop
automobiles and mass in streets
at his appearances, like him to
assail what he calls bureau
cratic regulations
AS he approached the end OF
an $500 mile campaign trail
through q states to the West
Coast and back, the nominee
found that train stop turnouts
were increasing in size. After
his caustic, fighting reply N
Oklahoma City 10 President
Roosevelts first speech, Dewey
was met by Tulsa throng he
said was the biggest station au-

years of political campaigning
There were large crowds also
al Monett and Springfield, Mo.
and yesterdays turnouts al
Muncie and Bellefontaine, O.,
were much larger than those III
comparable towns earlier in the
tour.
Dewey's return TO Albany to-
day was expected to signal a
week of comparative quiet in
the campaign while he catches
up on SpeechWritlng, tends TO
State business and gets a little
rest at his Pawling farm next
week end.
The Governor gave no evil
dence of fatigue as result OF
the three week trip, m n y
nights of it spent on moving
train. Conductor Paul West re
ported the train will have trav.
eled 8,545 miles on reaching AL
bany instead of the 600 miles
previously estimated. The in
crease resulted from rerouting
and other itinerary changes.
Dewey made seven major adj
dresses and gave q brief train
stop talks.

The Henry G. Shirley Memorial
highway, a ribbon of concrete be-
yond the Pentagon, which is to be
the main route south from Wash
ington after the war, was opened
today as far as the Fairfax County
line.
Unlike peacetime openings of ar
terial highways, there was no cut
ting of ribbons or making of
speeches. Having completed paving
the bridge over the South Glebe
road (the new highway scars over
or dips under every intersecting
road the contractor merely re-
moved the fence, and surprised mo-
torists who had been using parts
of the highway continued joyfully
on.

the Pentagon to It's present terminus
at Leesburg pike. 1t will eventually
be a $500, 600 four-lane highway

Corp. development on the Arlington

neer for the Public Roads Admin
istration, which constructed the
Shirley Highway, said today that

eral restaurants over the week end.
DR.. w. A. Browne, city health
officer, said the Army officers made

to make the corrections.

BALTIMORE, April 25.-The
