honeymoon home for their eldest
daughter, Nora. Her hance, James
Haight had disappeared on the eve
of the wedding. Her sister, Lola,
lives apart from the family; she
had eloped and returned divorced.
The youngest Miss Wright, Pa
tricia, is going with the county

Ellery that Jim Haight's backr

From First Page

convicting himself of insincerity
The most that can be done-and it
is being done-is for his friends to
say they believe that if the national
convention does nominate Gov
Dewey for President, he will accept
the nomination.
That seems to be about all they
can do, and hope that enough OF
the leaders and individual delegates
will believe them and hold out fol-
Gov. Dewey until the balloting be-
gins in the convention.
In the meantime, supporters OF
Wendell L. Willkie and Mr.. Willkie
himself will hammer at the door in
many states for delegates. So will
Gov. Bricker of Ohio and his back
ers, and the hackers of former Gov
Stassen of Minnesota, of Gen. Mac
Arthur and others.
Here and there the Dewey boom
was dubbed Stop Willkie" move.
Some of the opponents of Mr.. Will
kie undoubtedly are for the nomi-
nation of Gov. Dewey. But it was
obvious the demand for Dewey went
beyond any such maneuver. 1t is
fast becoming the job of the Willkie
supporters now to stop Dewey"
The selection Of Chicago as the
Evening star., 1944-01-12

place for the Republican National
Convention was expected. 1t was
a bitter pill for the Willieites, who
had been working until last Satur-
day to take the convention else
where. In its final session yes
terday the committee voted unani-
mously for Chicago, the Willkie sup
porterS bowling to the will of the
ma jority. The date Of the opening
of the convention, June 26, also had
been forecast. E !
The committee adopted a report
OF its committee on call which fixed
the number of delegates to the ma
tional convention at 1859 or Sc more
than in the 1910 convention. 1t will
take $50 to nominate a presidential
candidate, a bare majority of the
total vote.
The delegate strength was reap
portioned in accordance with rules
adopted at the last convention, sew
eral States gaining materially and
others losing delegates. The District
of Columbia still will have three
delegates in the convention-as it
did in 1910. New York has the larg-
est delegation-93-which is one
more than four years ago. Several
of the Southern States lost dele
gates, as for example South Caro-
lima which will have four delegates
instead of 10. Provision was made
for two delegates from the Philip
pines, as in the past, though how
these delegates will be selected re-
mains in doubt, since the islands
are now occupied by the japanese.
Foreign Policy Pledge.
The committee voted its approval
of the Mackinac Island foreign
policy declaration of the Republican
Postwar Advisory Council. This
pledges the Republican party to
support a policy of international
collaboration to maintain peace in
the future.
A committee on arrangements for
the national convention was ap-
pointed by National Chairman Har-
rison E. Spangler. The active
chairman of this committee is Wal
ter S. Hallanan of West Virginia, a
Willkie supporter in 1910, but who
has since left the Willkie group.
Among the "a members of this COM
mittee are friends of all the princi-
pal presidential possibilities.
Its membership is as follows:
Wallace S. Hallanan, West Virginia,
acting chairman; H. E. Spangler,
Iowa, Harold w. Mason, Vermont,
and Henry P. Fletcher, Rhode Is
land, ex-officio members; Robert P.

ling, jr, legislative liasion ofIicer for
Selective Service.
His proposal, Senator Austin told
"a press conference, would affect
only that number and type OF
persons who, depending upon the
numbers required and the purposes
for which they are required, can best
perform the work with the least
comparative sacrifice and with the
least harm to the national welfare. -
Call First for Volunteers.
To fill these stated numbers of
jobs, when deemed necessary by the
President, the Austin bill would call
first for volunteers, then drafting
OF men and women of suitable abili-
ties for work in war industries or on
the farm or in such other employ
ment, possibly including Govern
ment work, which the President
might determine to be essential.
As to the order of categories-
single men deferred In An child
less married 4-Fs and so on-from
which the labor draftees would be
called, Senator Austin said he would
offer specific recommendations.
Under the Austin bill and its
counterpart introduced in the House
by Representative Wadsworth, Re-
publican, Of New York, a drafted
worker would receive the prevail
ing rate of pay in the assigned work,
would get travelling expenses paid,
would retain seniority and other
rights in his previous job and would
not be required to join any union
or organization, though he could do
so If he wished.
In case of strike. the striking
workers could be conscripted into
their jobs.
