|Dewey's Rejection

Held No Bar 10 Draft
BY the Associated Press

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Feb. 24.-Gov
Thomas E. Dewey Of New York will
accept a draft nomination for the
presidency, but he will not alter in
any way his determination not to
become an active candidate before
the Republican convention in June.
That was the Interpretation
placed today by intimates of the
Governor on his action in tele-
graphing his strongest disapproval"
OF the course taken by "a candidates
In filing petitions at Madison for
election as supporters of Gov. Dewey
in the April 4 Wisconsin primary
Gov. Dewey apparently sealed the
door against any exit from the po-
sition he has taken that he is not
seeking the nomination, but is not
saying before hand what he would
do If 1t came to him.
Position Clarified.
His friends made it plain, how.
ever, that the 42-year -old Governor
who led on the early ballots in tht
1910 nominating convention, is will.
ing-if the convention is willing
to take his chances on what he anc
most other Republicans believe will
be a battle to defeat President
Roosevelt for a fourth term.

express the hope that they would
withdraw the petitions which hao

norman, Secretary of State and a
candidate at large pledged to Gov
Dewey, said he believed the Gov

papers have been filed would con-

Wisconsin Stand Given.
Our being candidates is not
Gov. Dewey's choice, but ours" Mr..
Zimmerman said. There is moth
ing in Gov. Dewey's telegram that
makes him less a candidate than
he ever has been before and there
is nothing in our nomination papers
that makes him more of one"
II the group carries out the de-
termination to run, that would
place a renounced Gov. Dewey slate

In New Jersey Gov. Walter E,
Edge, who is credited with being
favorable to Gov. Dewey, signed a
bill repeating the New Jersey elec-

the primary four years ago.
Some supporters of Gov. Dewey,
who filed petitions to place his name
on the ballot before the Legislature
acted, have threatened suit to force

Dewey apparently said nothing in
this instance, since the repeater soon

Early this month two women who
were among those indicted on the

charges OF transporting women fol
immoral purposes. They are Wilma

@. Please describe the flag of
China. E. L. H.

the upper right-hand corner is a
blue sky bearing white sun with

the Kuomintang, the peoples party.

@. Is the word archipelago ap-
piled to an island-studded body of

1t originally was the designation of
what is now known as the Aegean
Sea.
@. Where is the worlds largest

sometimes take longer than usual in transit:
CENSORSHIP: With more than Is, 100000
pieces to be censored each week. occasional
delays are bound to occur. And censorship is
necessarily tighter in combat areas, which
means more time lost in reading.
SECRECY AND SAFETY MEASURES: 1t is some
times necessary to impound, temporarily,

units in order to maintain absolute secrecy
regarding troop movements.
IRREGULARITY OF SCHEDULES: Mail often
piles up at ports while conveys are being
assembled, and between sailing times.
SINKINGS: Service mail goes on all United
Nations merchant ships. Every time vessel
is sunk, quantities of mail are lost.

bags destined for that vessel. 1t may take six
weeks to reach the ship. When it gets there,

The Army Air Forces cause the worst head

In other cases service postal officials have
had better luck with mis-addressed COM
munications. A letter addressed to a sailor
stationed at "Oedrucjtiwbm B. H." was sent
to the Office of Naval Intelligence for decod
ing. The experts were stumped, but girl

On the other hand, mail properly addressed

in the Navy, where men are frequently trans

The overzealous censor had carefully re-
moved exactly the information the bureau
needed in order to find the mans mail. 1t took
two months to straighten that one out.
Army and Navy officials are constantly
trying to improve mail service. They don't
expect, however, to see the day when they
won't get complaints.
Colonel Ambrose treasures one letter. the
writer of which had evidently been told to
write the Adjutant General. His letter finally
found its way to its intended destination
despite the address, which read simply:
The Angel and General.

I'VE may be able to satisfy everyone. Until
then, we'll just have to do the best we can."
