impression that their story would
be told vigorously and confidently by
their candidate; but it did not elec-
trify them.
The answer to the second question
will be given only If Mr.. Dewey is
elected.
The country wants leadership.
That is always so in times of crisis.
Mr.. Harding seemed good enough
in 1920, Mr.. Coolidge in 1924 and
Mr.. Hoover in 1928. In those three
election years the national dispo-
sition was to get along without a
leader. But when the walls came
tumbling down the cry went up for
leader and in 1882 Mr.. Roosevelt
was elected by a Nation that be-
lieved he possessed the qualities q
leader should possess.
Question Of Leadership.
If the country decides to make
change this year 1t will be because
the country believes Mr.. Dewey is
more of a leader than Mr.. Roose-
velt.s We may talk about the cam
paign issues" but we will be think
ing about the personal capacities OF
the two men. We will be making
up our minds, as the weeks 60 by,
on that one simple, but supreme,
question: Which is the best able
to lead the country through the
critical years Immediately ahead of
us?
Republican voters. the rank and
flle, the noncoms and the lesser
lieutenants of the party, already
have shown their faith in Mr..
Dewey's ability to lead the party.
They demonstrated this so fully
before the convention met that
there was nothing for the two-star
and three-star generals of the party
to do but accept their decision.
Now, however, Mr.. Dewey must
justify this faith. To do this he
must turn dubious party organiza-
ton into an active fighting force.
He can choose some of his aides, but,
like it or not, he must depend for
the most part on the very men who
obtained the least pleasure from his
nomination.
General Staff Weak.
These are the Governors. Sena-
tors, national committeeman and
other top-fight party people who
have made so little effort to conceal
their feeling toward him. GA feeling
not helped greatly perhaps by the
young candidates announcement

Churchill Expected
Ito Talk in Commons
|0n Robot Attacks
~ the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
LONDON, July 1.-German flying
bombs crashed intermittently into
Southern England today and 1t was
believed likely that Prime Minister
Winston Churchill might make .
brief statement to Commons next
week on this new form of German
attack. ,
1t was felt, however, that Mr..
Churchill would not give very full
details on the districts where the
missiles have been hitting, the ex-
tent Of damage they are doing or
the methods used to combat them.
Yesterday the Prime Minister
toured anti-aircraft sites watching
the battle against the winged bombs.
The number Of robot planes COM
Ing over increased after dawn and
the Air Ministry announced addi-
tional casualties and damage.
Some Of the planes were shot
down by gunflre.
Workmen still were digging in the
ruins Of a nursery demolished yes
terday, with an undetermined num-
Der Of fatalities. Twenty-six babies,
all less than years old, were shell
tered there.
In one Of the most detailed descrip-
tions yet given Of the Na1 flying
weapon, the International Informa-
ton Bureau. German propaganda
agency, said In a broadcast heard
by the Associated Press that q
rocket propelled gear" gives the
winged bomb q speed Of 375 miles
per hour, carrying an explosive load
Of more than one ton. The range,
the broadcast said, Is fixed before
firing.
The robots, the agency said, are
launched from underground en-
placements which are indestructi-
BILE for all practical purposes"
