to Michigan

New York's Governor Dewey. the
Republican choice for president,
swung his crosscountry speaking
tour on to his native Michigan to-
day.
At Owosso, his birthplace. and 81
Lansing. he will follow up the anti
Administrator blast he left yester-
day In politically-doubtful Ken
lucky.
At Louisville, before an audience
OF the National Federation OF Wom-
ems Republican Clubs and the gen.
eral public, he devoted most OF
his second major campaign speech
to criticism OF the secrecy sur
rounding the present security con-
ferences at Dumbarton Oaks. He
scored what he termed "hugh.hush,
pussyfoot' methods, and told a ma
tionwide radio audience that the
small nations as we'll as the large
must have a say in the postwar po-
Icy set-up.
No document signed at the end
OF the war will in Itself preserve
peace, he said, and, citing sacrifice
and continuing effort as the only
solutions, aligned himself with
those who favor the forceful preser-
walton of peace.
In line with his plea that the
voices OF small nations be heard,
he charged that Washington vast
ers' are proposing ito buy them
selves international power out of
our pocketbooks."
At Spokane, Wash, Senator Pep
per (D-Fla.) said the Republicans
had opposed the recognition OF Rus
STA and that IL President Roosevelt
were reelected. there would be
greater Hope" that Russia would
take full part with US in the war
against Japan"
And in Washington, Dewey's
previous campaign remarks that
the administration is afraid to
let men out OF the Army at wars
end because 1t doubts its ability to
provide Jobs, were answered by
President Roosevelt at his news
conference merely with smile.
Mr.. Roosevelt, however. com
mented on one of Deweys asser'
tions. Dewey had said that the
Administration was tired. quarrel
some and defeatist. The Chief Exc
cutive observed that he had said
before that he would like 10 go
back to Hyde Park but not because
he was tired or defeated.

Dewey Train Goes
Through Ypsilanti

Governor Dewey's special train
passed through Ypsilanti at 1888
this morning, headed for his homo
in Owosso.
There the last bunting was in
place and the final banner hung,
while one Owosso housekeeper
swept and garnished as never be-
fore a white, tree-shaded home on
oliver Street-all for a common
cause-Owosso' favorite son, Gov.
Thomas Z. Dewey, was returning
home.
Townsfolk joined, professional
decorators in draping a speaker
platform and lamp posts with hunt
ing and hanging portraits OF the
Republican presidential candidate.
The finishing touch was the stretch
ing Of large "Dewey-forProsi-

oughfare.

directed the construction OF a plat.

This problem, which was disclos-
ed today, may not be settled before
the end Of the deliberations be-
tween Russia, Britain and the Unit
ed States on plans for an interna-
tional agency TO keep peace, and
may have to be worked out by
Messrs. Stain, Roosevelt and
Churchill themselves.
1t is the one point, it was under
stood, on which the Russians have
firmly refused a compromise agree
ment.
The issue is deeply significant.
because officials feel II is the one
way OF enabling the world organiza-
ton TO function in case one OF the
big four nations is an aggressor.
The agreed voting procedure on
the council of the proposed agency
is that the decision to use force
against an aggressor must be made
by at least a majority of the coun-
ell. specifically including all the
permanent big power" members.
Thus, under the general voting
procedure, any of these five coua-
tries--the U. s.. Britain, Russia,
China, and, eventually. France
could effectively veto international
action against itself.
