CHICAGO, June 26 (INS)
Dewey was a first
ballot cinch for the Repub.
lican presidential nomination
today with Gov. Warren Of
California a favorite to be his
running mate.
The COP convention assem-.
bled, with its presidential nom.
inee already known and its
platform already written.
Interest centered largely on the
possibility that Gov. Bricker will
withdraw to place Dewey's name
In nomination, but Bricker man.

will let his name 20 before the
convention and take his beating.

STRONG PLATFORM
The tentative platform has
strong planks on the war, foreign
policies and farm affairs, but fea.
lures a demand that the armed
forces themselves be consulted in
the writing of the peace and that
the Senate ratify any treaty end
ing the war.
In an appeal for the farm vote,
the platform denounces regimen.
tation and the doctrine of scarcity.
Senator Vandenberg wrote most
of the foreign policy plank.
Though many Midwesterners ex.
pressed regret that the Repub-
licans agreed on international CO.
operation even though opposed to
a world state" overwhelming
adoption of the platform Is
assured.
This morning. an ms poll
shows Dewey with a total of S3S
delegates to but 128 for Bricker.
The rest scattered or undeclared.
Only $50 are needed for nominal
ton.

GRAB REAR BUMPER

Eagerly, the delegates voted to
throw Michigan's support I'M
anlmously to Dewey, thus catching
the crowded bandwagon by a rear
bumper.
But the Mckay fight gave the
assembled delegates their one big
moment.
Realizing that he could not be
reelected as national committee

late yesterday afternoon plotted
counter strategy by launching Hal
