ing. il seems reasonable TO as
sumo that the confusion is fairly

The bafflement stems from
special order TO the officer
personnel. Ostensibly il is in
English. but every officer TO

fled him.
THE order. exactly as issued

There was not much change
in the record until 1909 when
there was a jump to 5,307 in
juries and 126 deaths from tet.
anus. This CHASTITY toll stimu-
lated both the antitetanus and
anti-fireworks campaign so that:
In 1914 there were 1,506 in
juries and three deaths from
tetanus.

THESE DAYS

THERE they stood on the
l. rostrum Of the Chicago
Stadium, a contrast in person
alities.
Tom Dewey, urban, polished,
medium in height, black-haired,
black, piercing eyes; job n
Bricker, small city, tall, white
haired, raw-boned, blue-gray
eyes.
Both are, as things 60 these
days. young men: Dewey, AZ;
Bricker, so.
Both are middle westerners,
Dewey from Michigan, Bricker
from Ohio.
Both are lawyers and gov
errors of a state.
Both come from middle-class
families.
Both are married to quiet,
comely women who will not
disturb them by pursuit Of in
dividual adventures.
Tom Dewey and John Bricker
are very different human be-
ings. Tom Dewey is not effu-
sive. but he possesses a sharp,
incisive intellect, capacity for
organization, a willingness to
delegate authority and respon-
sibility, and a power to get
work done and done right.
Tom Dewey does not spare
himself and does not spare his
assistants. but he does achieve
results.
He resents loose ends. and as
the Republicans in Chicago dis
covered, there were none in his
organization.
He operates In politics with
the RIGHTEOUSNESS of a we'll
managed. large scale business
organization.
, He does not tolerate loose
ness in government. In a word,
Tom Dewey puts his accent on
administration.
John BRICKER is a gentler
- soul and if, as is true, he
came out Of the convention the
most beloved figure in the Re-
publican party. it is because
his nature is to be loved.
Months ago I wrote that John
Bricker would gain the great
est popularity even IL he did
not get the delegates and 1t has
turned out to be so.
John Bricker did not want the
vice presidency.
Governor Warren Of Cali
fornia was forced to refuse it
because he could not afford the
luxury of being a vice president
of the United States. Neither
can John Bricker.
A public servant all Of his
adult life, his means are linn
tied.
The vice president receives
SIS, 900 a year and has to pay
income taxes the same as the
rest of us. He receives no al
lowances, yet must maintain a
position equal to his station in
Washington.
Unless a man has something
OF a private fortune, he finds
this verN tough going. John
Bricker possesses no private
fortune.
I saw him during the hours
when he had to make the deci-
sion. 1 heard him talk in con-
fidence to his intimate friends.
/ saw that look of wonder and
concern and uncertainty.
And / heard him say to his
manager, Don't worry about
me. The question b, will my
running help the country and
party? I come third In con-
slderation.-

Employers 'Seourged'
Bricker Tells Voters

"The New Deal has almost de-
/ stroycd fair collective bargain
ing and has substituted in its
place political bargaining detri-
mental both TO employer and
employe."
Another result, Bricker went
on, has been TO put the brakes
on our industrial progress.
The by-products of il have
been class hatrcds, riots, strikes
and strained relations among all
concerned. Labor groups have
been set off against other labor
groups
The Ohioan said he believed
that New Dealers never made a
"graver blunder' than TO treat
the interests o. employer and
employee as separate.
1t even has proved to be bad
politics, he continued, because
now that Sidney Hillman
Chairman of the Political Action
committed and Earl Browder
and the Communists generally
are sitting in the drivers seat of
the New Deal, laboring people
everywhere know that they are
being exploited for political
gain"
