Budget Director Burton is a grad

research. He assisted Dewey in his
unsuccessful race for Governor in
1898.
Like Mr.. Lockwood, Mr.. Breitel be-
gan his career with the Governor in
the district attorneys ONCE. When
Dewey went into private law practice
in January, 1912, just before run
ming for Governor, Mr.. Breitel went
with him as an associate. In Al
bany he is responsible for all legal
action the Governor takes. His
duties include the study Of legisla-
tive bills.
Mr.. Dulles figured prominently in
the news in recent weeks when Gov
Dewey sent him to Washington as
his representative to confer with
Secretary Of State Hull in a BIZ
partisan move to bring about CO.
operation in planning for a lasting
peace. Gov. Dewey said at that time
he regarded Mr.. Dulles as "one OF
the very ablest Of American author
tiles on international relations"
Mr.. Dulles was born in Washing

DENVER, Colo, Sept. s.-Lead-
ers of both parties in Colorado and
Utah were given the green light
Thursday and the campaigns are
now under way.
Active campaigning in New Mex
leo is being delayed longer than
usual due to the war.
In Colorado the early trend toward
Dewey although not as heavy as for
Willkie, leads observers to feel that
the chief COP worry is the Old
Guard While not apparent on the
surface, the undercurrent indicates
that Dewey still has selling job
ahead of him. The incumbent Gov.
John c. Vivian appears to have
little opposition in Roy E. Best,
warden of the State penitentiary
whom the COP terms a Demo-
ocratic desperation nominee" DEM
ocratic hope is that Senator john
sons defeat of ex-Gov. Carr, Colo
RADIO favorite son in an upset in
the COP landslide in 1912 and labor
opposition to the Colorado Labor
Peace Act now being challenged in
the State Supreme Court might
unite the badly split machine. The
Labor Act may cause Vivian trouble
as the campaign progresses, Demo-
cratic leaders say.
Utah Democrats, after being split
in two factions during the past
eight years, enter the 1914 campaign
with united front. Harmony was
restored at the platform convention
last Saturday. Senator Abe Murdock
spanked the peace drive with a
warning that the Democrats face
plenty of opposition from the COP.
Dewey leaders term the Democratic
reconciliation panic and fear" and
an effort to save Gov. Nav and the
incumbent Representative.
In New Mexico both Democrats
and Republicans have slipped badly
on national and State issues as the
campaign opens. The majority of
changes in party affiliations before
the recent State primary were in
the ranks Of Federal job holders,
which indicates that this will be the
main issue later. Incumbent Gov.
Dempsey is expected to face stiff
opposition under the New Deal BAN
ner but appears to have. the better
organization.

Connecticut Doubtful
Rv Roberf n R,~..s

HARTFORD, Conn, Sept. O.
Connecticut campaign activities
have been almost entirely organiza-
tional since both parties nominated
their State tickets the first week of
August in order to get names of can
dldates on ballots to servicemen
overseas.
1t appears now that the Republi-
can State ticket, the incumbent
officers headed by Gov. Raymond E..
Baldwin, will be stronger than
Dewey and Bricker. The Democratic
State ticket is headed by ex-Gov.
Robert A. Hurley, who won the
nomination by rather narrow mar
gin from Leo V. Gaffney, who had
the backing of United States Sen
ator Francis Maloney. Maloney was
booed loudly when he addressed the
convention and retorted with an
announcement of his candidacy for
reelection in 1916. The Democrats
also had some trouble with the re-
mainder of the State ticket, and
members of the Federation of Dem
ocratic Women took the convention
floor to protest the absence, for the
first time in several years, of a
woman from the State slate.
United States Senator John A.
Danaher, renominated by acclama-
ton by the Republicans, is under
fire for falling to support the Roose-
velt foreign policy and appears
likely to lose some Republican votes.
He will, however, get some Demo-
cratic support, but it is not yet clear
how these elements will balance.
Danaher's opponent is Brien Nc
Mahon, former Assistant United
States Attorney General under
Homer S. Cummings. Cummings led
an aggressive campaign for McMa-
hons nomination, emerging from
semiretirement in Connecticut poll
tics to become the dominant figure
IN the Democratic party again
Mcmahon was nominated without
opposition when Maloney forces, in
eleventh hour strategy, decided to
concentrate their opposition on
Hurley.
Republicans have renominated all
members of the House. Democratic
candidates include the veteran Her
man P. Kopplemann of Hartford,
contesting the 1st district seat for
the fourth time with William j.
Miller, and two women, Mrs. Chase
Going Woodhouse, Connecticut Col

mated to oppose John d. McWilliams

when we hear of the ideas for new
industrial cartels in which Russia
and Great Britain will have the
lions share so far as the enemy's
industries and businesses are con-
cerned. We are given a further in
dication in the talk revolving around
incorporation of smaller states into
two big eastern and western groups,
regardless of whether they are out
right annexations or 60 by the name
of friendly governments.
The American Government has no
territorial ambitions, except in re-
gard to some rocks and coral reefs
with no economic value in the
Pacific. But our present political
leaders, unmindful of the tremend-
GUS nationalistic trends which have
existed in Europe for hundreds of
years, believe that the panacea for
peace Is to be found in trade agree
ments and the removal of trade
barriers. These failed in the eight
years which preceded the war and
are not likely to succeed in an i'm
proverished and downtrodden Eu-
rope where the nationalistic feelings
Of all countries had been worked to
high pitch in the five years of
conflict.
During all this time nationalism
and freedom has been more empha-
sized than ever before. 1t would be
having too much faith in human
nature if we believed that the ma
tions which have survived the un-
precedented tyranny of the Ger
mans would give up their national
aspirations because somebody else
had decided to take them over. 1t
would be foolhardy to believe that

Jersey COP Worried
By Robert T. TAYLOR.

NEWARK, N. j., Sept. 9.-Those
Republicans in New Jersey, who
during the week were happily
watching their leader, Gov, Walter
E. Edge, assist Dewey open his ma
tioral presidential campaign, pulled
up with a jolt Thursday.
That was the day their State
chairman, Lloyd E. Marsh, told then
to get out and work for the Re.
publican ticket first and then for q
revised State constitution which
Marsh had heard some Republican
groups were putting first.
Getting the States present consti.
tuition. which was written in 1874
rewritten into new document anc
then adopted by the voters at the
November 7 election happens to be
pet Republican project. The re-
vision ties in with the Republican
efforts to dethrone Mayor Frank
Hague of Jersey City, State Demo-
cratic boss.
Marsh's words brought grins o1
satisfaction from these Democrats
They have been fighting constitu-
tlonal revision with remarkable pre-
occupation in a presidential election
year, slamming savagely not only al
Republicans, but at those indepen-
dents and anti-Hague Democrats
notably Charles Edison, former Gov
ernor and one-time Secretary of the
Navy-who have espoused the new
constitution.
The Democrats said that Marsh
was startled by discovery that the
Political Action Committee of the
CIO was accomplishing something
in New Jersey. Marsh's own words
were: My opinion is that the COM
mlttee is doing more in the way of
registration than are the regular
political forces"
What the Democrats saw. of
course, was an opportunity to con-
centrate still more strength against
the constitutional revision ques-
ton. If the COP holds back some
OF its fire, they can swing more guns
on Edison. Edison is touring the
State for revision with a jovial
method of hitting Hague that ap-
parently gets under Hague's skin.
For he has lashed back with a bitter
personal attack.
Edge brought the fight against
Hague and the plea for new consti-
tuition before the Nation when he
spoke on Dewey's behalf Tuesday
night. He was ctamped for time on
the air, but he managed to get in a
charge that the New Deal does bus
mess with ''the radical Hillman and
the Communist Earl Browder."

leaders, he is confident OF his partys
success despite the fact that in 1896
and 1910 President Roosevelt was
the winner here.
Democrats believe that the Presi-
dent will repeat his record counting
heavily on the mining districts and
the CIO in the industrial centers.
The Republicans count on carrying
more than SO of the 81 counties of
Pennsylvania, including all the agri-
cultural districts where the Demo-
Gratis admit they are weak
The recent gallop poll gave Roose-
velt So per cent of the States presi-
dental vote and Dewey 48, but Gov
Martin has pointed out that in 1928
the polls gave the State to Smith
but Hoover won by 987 ,796 votes.
Philadelphia. which went to the
President in the last two elections
is counted upon by the Republican
Organization to swing to Dewey this
time. Allegheny County, containing
Pittsburgh, which three times pro-
vided Roosevelt plurality, is not
counted upon too heavily by the
COP, but it expects the Roose-
velt lead there will be greatly re-
duced.
On the face Of the registration
figures the Republicans should win
with Dewey and elect their State
wide ticket, but the registration in
1896 and 1910 was also strongly Re-
publican. The States latest en-
rollment figures, those of last De-
cember, show there were then 2,51O,-
498 Republicans and l,819,472 Demo-
Gratis in the State, Republican lead
of 691,016.
The soldier vote in a close election
could be the determining factor in
the fight. There are $4,000 Penn
sylvanians in the armed services,
100000 OF them eligible to vote. That
many ballots under the 1914 special
legislative session act have been
already sent out, but politicians
figure that not half of them will
vote. In 1941 only 1888 soldier votes
were cast; in 194l, 1882, and 1943
9095.

Ohio Leans to Dewey
Bv L. X. C0nnor,

COLUMBUS, Ohio, Sept. 9.-The
various surveys and polls which show
probably Republican" at the COM
ing national election reflect on the
whole the political consensus in the
State.
Without the various situations,
such as the absence of young men
at war and the large migration of
war workers from one city to
another and from, into and out of
the State, which have injected an
uncertain note this year, the polls
and surveys and political consensus
might more nearly place Ohio in the
certain Republican column
One factor which has not been
accurately assessed as yet, and
which, for that reason, Is causing
considerable speculation, is the
number of voters registered this
year.
In Cleveland it is estimated that,
due to the unsettled conditions men,
toned above, some 100000 fewer
votes will be cast for President this
year than in 1910. Similarly, it is
estimated that in Columbus the
number of registered voters is down
about 5000 from four years ago.
1t has been reported that in Akron.
a typical war-industry town where
the movement into and out of the
city by workers has been great, that
the number of registered voters this
year is only about $4,000, as COM
pared to almost twice that many,
100000 four years ago.
Registration Is Easy.
Under Ohio's permanent registra-
ton law, registration is easy, as
voters may register at any time.
And much is being done, especially
in those cities where the CIO unions
are strong, to get the labor vote
registered, for it is admitted practi-
cally beyond any argument by both
Republican and Democratic leaders
that Ohio's rural areas will be pre-
dominantly and almost universally
Republican this November.
What happened four years ago,
when President Roosevelt carried
Ohio by slim 1896 votes, with
l38.O48 OF that Majority having come
from Cuyahoga County tCleveland)
illustrates why the Presidents
hackers in Ohio are so anxious this
time for all big city voters to qualify.
II the rural areas would be much
more Republican this time than in
l94O-and it is expected that they
Will be just that-and at the same
time the urban support of MIR.
Roosevelt would let down, he would
be in serious trouble in Ohio.
