BOWLING GREEN, KY, Oct. A.
Gov. John w. Bricker Of Ohio as
serted today the Democrats own
nominee for Vice President had said
the Roosevelt administratic was
responsible for inadequate overSall
planning and delay In determining
basic policies" of the war program.
The Republican candidate for
Vice President, opening q four
week Western campaign that will
carry him to the Pacific Coast,
quoted from speeches, writings and
official reports which he said had
been made by Senator Truman, his
Democratic opponent.
Yet, Gov. Bricker asserted in q
prepared text released by his cam
paign staff, Senator Truman now
would have the American people
believe that the welfare Of this Ma
ton and its future, as well as the
peace Of the whole world depend on
another four years Of Roosevelt and
the New Deal"
Truman Articles Quoted.
Gov. Bricker remarked to his out
door audience that Senator Truman
had obtained facts as chairman Of q
Senate committee which investi-
gated the war effort, $50 we may be
confident that he is revealing the
painful truth"
Senator Truman, he continued,
wrote for the American Magazine in
1912:
"'The reasons for the waste and
confusion, the committee found,
were everywhere the same: The lack
of courageous, unified leadership
and centralized direction at the
top. -
"With the world going up in
flames about us, we owe it to our
selves to insist that the President
act promptly to halt the selfish
fights for power, the endless bicker-
ing and dissension which have so far
blocked the complete utilization Of
our productive energies. -"
Criticism Of HiIlman Recalled.
Gov. Bricker told his audience
Senator Truman said in radio
address:
'M-day, or Mobilization Day, and
they didn't even know it until sew
eral months later. And then 1t
turned out that the plans available
were all based on assumed facts. The
assumed facts proved false, and
hastily improvised plans had to be
substituted
GovA Bricker declared that the
Democratic vice presidential nomi-
nee also had criticized Sidney Hill
man, chairman of the CIO Political
Action Committee supporting Presi-
dent Roosevelt for fourth term.
Referring to Hillman's activities
concerning the awarding of a war
contract" Gov. Bricker added, Sen
ator Truman said:

position too strongly. - If Mr..
