Even before the Chicago Conven.

No one who listened or read the
hrst Dewey speeches can doubt his
right TO be a candidate for the
presidency. In his very first speech
he stated his philosophy for the
American people. II Is vigorous.
wholesome philosophy based, upon
the inimitable record Of three CEN
turtles on this continent OF the most
constructive activities ever evil

upon this earth. Americans, orig

built here not only a free society,
but an energetic. dynamic. forward

sees nothing in the experience Of

We Americans still remain the
most dynamic people on earth. In
fact, his position Is that our pro-
gress is in It's infancy, that the
