Senator Connally D-Tex) one
of the Senate conferees and a
States Rights" supporter, spoke
of state and national ballots in
connection with the compromise
seeking conference.
The Senate conferees will meet
Tuesday to arrange joiA meet
ing with the House committeeman.
They will go into the conference
confronted with:
l. The Senate-pr ~sed Green-Lu-
cas- bill under which Federal bal
lots for president, vice president
and members of congress, would
be used generally among the men
overseas. They could request state
absentee ballots Lut if they fail
to receive them would be given
the Federal ballot.
2. The House-passed Estates
Rights bill which recommends
that the States pass LEGISLATION to
send their own absentee ballots
to men and women in uniform.
That bill does not include a Fed
eral ballot.

supporter of the other. This would
unite all the elements of the party
which, if combined, make it capa-
BILE of government-which if divid-
ed, means that the pre-New Deal
old guard Republicans will remain
dominant.
To treat the problem this way
calls for more than ordinary dis
interestedness and magnanimity of
mind. But the next President will
need those qualities, and the first
candidate who displays them will
at once rise high in public esteem.
Nor would it be bad politics for
candidate to display in the Re-
publican convention the same at
tributes of greatness which Hamil-
ton displayed in the disputed cleo
ton of 1900 For he would put
himself on a level where his rival
must either ascend to it also, or
sink way below it.
All this rests on the assumption,
which is, I believe, sound, that
there would be plenty of room in
a new administration for both Will
kie and Dewey, and that it must
seem more important to them
personally than in reality it mat
tiers to the nation which is the first
man and which the second.
If Willkie were the President, he
would need more than anything
else the thing which Dewey is in
high degree, a systematic, thor
ough, cool, and young administra-
tor who by his orderly grasp of
concrete matters, and his excel
lent judgment of men, is on top of
his specific job, and not all hot
and bothered under it. The i'm
mense problems of the demobiliza-
ton, in the fullest sense of the
word, will call for these qualities.
If Dewey were President, he
would need to be more than an ad-
ministrator He would need what
Willkie has so abundantly and so
bravely-the capacity to- touch
mems hearts and share their
hopes. Perhaps he tns this capac-
ity. For he is a young man who
has certainly grown and is surely
growing, not only in mind but in
character. and SO one will hold it
against him that it took him a
long time to understand the war.

GIL D0DDS GIVEN
HALLAHAN AWARD
BY BILL KING

BOSTON, Feb. 13-lR-As a re-
ward for running the fastest in
door mile in Boston's track his
tory-a 4:09.5 Performance in the
Boston A. AS famed Hunter event
divinity student Gil Dodds to-
day was awarded the John j..
Hallahan Memorial Trophy with
an almost perfect total of SO votes.
Dodds, recipient of the Sulla-
van Award as the nations out
standing amateur athlete in 1943,
was the first selection of all but
one of the eight-man Hallahan
board, which annually designates
the B.A.A. meets outstanding COM
petitor on the basis of perform
ance, competitive spirit and sports
manship.
Runner-up to Dodds, who totaled
80 out of a possible 40 points in
the balloting, was Johnny Fulton,
the Stanford junior, with %, That
At athlete won the Lapham "1O0O'
in easy fashion from the power
full Joe Nowicki, the University
of Rochester Marine trainee, with
2:12.8 effort.
The others who figured in the
Hallahan deliberations were high
jumper Bill Vessie of Dartmouth,
with 5 votes, Ensign ellie Hunter
of Columbia, the Billings two-mile
winner, with 4 and Claude Young
of Illinois, and Court Ellis of Bos-
ton English High with one each.
Although Dodds' latest triumph
over his arch-rival, Bill Hulse,
holder of the American 4:06 rec
ord, appeared easily gained, it
probably was the most satisfac-
tory one of his career. In four
previous B.AA. meets, Dodds
disappointed his hometown admir-
ers with his erratic performances.
Until last night he never had
won a major race in Boston but
once he left the mark with Hulse
and two other rivals, Dodds' home
town ink took flight. Dodds took
the lead after the first lap and
maintained such terrific pace
that Hulse was unable to make
any challenge. When he finished,
20 wards ahead of Hulse, the only
other to 90 the full distance, Dodds
had wiped out Walter Mehrs Bos-
ton record, set in 1910, by a fifth
of second. He also erased the
previous Hunter mile mark of 4:10
set by Glenn Cunningham in 1888.

NEW YORK, Feb. 10. - Up -
Branch Hickey, the city boy VINO
made good on the farms, has a
few thousand words to say in de-
tense Of the chain store system OF
baseball. And those words are just
his pair of jacks, or openers.
The Brooklyn Dodger president
turned on a flow OF choice oratory
at his press conference the other
day. lulling his listeners into a
hypnotic state from which they
emerged with one vivid impression
to wit:
Until a better plan is ready to
be substituted, Mr.. Hickey will
fight for the farm system until the
bitter end.
eff 16 major league clubs were
doing you'd really see baseball our

100 leagues operating" he said.
The farm system, he declared.
was responsible for building the
number of minor leagues from
low of II in the 1905 to their re-
spectacle figure at the time OF
Pearl Harbor. In the lush '20s the
total reached 81, but counter en-
tertainment and the depression,
making it impossible for club own
ers to operate successfully, cut the
figure until minor league baseball
seemed on its death bed.
Mr.. Hickey then illustrated, with
gestures. how major clubs had
come to the rescue. He used an
elagorate allegory, comparing the
minors to a very sick man who
had been given up as lost A new
doctor in the person of major

do any harm and might do some

American life and economy. NO

There seems, also, to be some
difference of opinion on the ques-
ton of government participation IN
the economic life of the country
after the war ends, although the
three potential candidates gave
expression to their views in dis
cussing different subjects.

II can see yet John McGraw
sitting in the grandstand with me
and making out my batting order,
showing me where four players he
would give me for one player
would fit into the lineup" he
said.
Mr.. Hickey finally got tired of
this door-mat role, and began ask
ing his friends in college athletic
circles to keep an eye out for
promising players. AS a result he
gradually got so many players he
didn't have a place for them all,
so he conceived the idea of &C.
quiring clubs to take care of the
surplus.
He is convinced reorganization
of minor leagues isn't possible
if the money is to come from To-
cal people. Major clubs are will
ing to, and can afford to, take
their losses in exchange for the
chance to develop young players.
If somebody comes up with a
better plan to help the minors op.

be silly to kill the goose that is
