Reds Linked
To Roosevelt
BY AL KAUFMAN

ALPENA, Sept. 20-AccuSing
President Roosevelt of giving fed
eral jobs TO 100000 known Com
munists, Rep. Fred Bradley (R),
of Rogers City. declared today
that Thomas f. Dewey is the
man 10 throw these rats on their
ears out Of Washington and give
the country back TO red-blooded
Americans.
Every time Congress throws
them out, Roosevelt puts them
hack In another federal bureau
and usually at n higher salary"
he told COP audience. includ-
ing Gov. Kelly. in speech
marking the official opening Of
the Michigan Republican cleo
ton campaign
These willy left-wingers have
iniltrated in Washington and
embedded Themselves so deeply
that they are trying 10 make
Congress = laughing stock 80
they can take over our govern
ment."
CAREFUL OF RUSSIANS
Bradley was careful not 10
offend the Russian Communists
whom he described as our faith
full allies" but condemned the
~. 6. A. brand" He said they
were running rampant IN -this
country under the gHise of patri-
otto organizations.
The three-teTm congressman
remarks overShadowed Kelly's
first campaign speech, but both
carried plea for support of the
national and state Republican
ticket.
Devoting the major portion of
his talk in behalf of the COP
presidential nominee, Gov. Kelly
said that America must elect
Dewey 10 restore unity between
federal and state governments in
the postwar era.
LACK OF UNDERSTANDING
This understanding does not
exist today between the federal
government and the AZ states.
The governors Of the Demo-
cratic states agreed with this
conclusion Mt the governors
conference this year in Harris
burg. Pa.
"Gov. Dewey will bring about
this spirit OF unity, cooperation
and recognition of mutual
rights and duties that Is 80 nee
esSary for the future liberty
and happiness Of the American
people"
Declaring that Dewey has not
mertgaged his future IN securing
the nomination. Kelly said that
the Republican leader will have
the best available men and women
in his cabinet.
PICKS ABLE AIDES
"He has conclusively proven
throughout his career that he
is adept in selecting the best
talent available and that he can
work with them.
America needs that kind of
leadership today. America will
have that kind of leadership
and team play with Dewey as
president"
In his own behalf. Kelly asked
for support of the state ticket on
the basis Of his record during his
first term in office.
Those who labor In shops
and factories. those engaged in
business, those who till the soil.
those In professions and those
who direct activity Of tho
homes are all important parts
of our Michigan family.
KELLY'S POLICY
THAT family cannot prosper
IL any part of II Is economically
Ill or neglected or II parts
should be favored at the ex-
pense Of the others.
That has been the policy Of
this administration for the last
two years and will continue II
we are elected In November"
Appearing with Kelly were
John r. Dethmers. Republican
state central committee chairman
and candidate for attorney gen.
eral, and Secretary of State Her
man Dignan.

 Command Show-Music Conference

The First Service Command in collaboration with the Special Ser vices Division, Washington, D. C., held a soldier show and music con ference at Fort Devens, Mass, for a period of four days, February 8 through February II. The purpose of the conference can best be stat ed by quoting from War Depart ment Circular PA, in part: "In view of the curtailment of the do- mestic entertainment program of fered by USO-Camp Shows, Inc, and the increasing induction into the armed forces of male enter tainers, it becomes increasingly ev- ident that for purposes of enter tainment it will be necessary for commanders concerned to develop and rely upon soldier shows as a means of providing this form of recreation.
 The conference opened with greetings from the Commanding Officers and the Officer personnel Capt. Frank McMullen, formerly of the Yale University School of Drama listed the objective of the soldier shows as follow: The crea- ton and maintenance of soldier morale, a means of stimulating mass participation through individ- ual and mass expression and the creation of worthwhile, off-duty oc- cupation.
 A large and impressive roster of names representing the top in many divisions of the entertainment world gathered together to add thought and experience to this new branch of military endeavor. Among the first to address the as- semblage was John Garfield, of stage and screen fame, who was one of the early celebrities to bring entertainment to overseas installa-

Mrs.
 Y. Stuart, make up artist, explain ed the use of available makeup materials.
