must know In advance the terms on
which 1t will be allowed to take over

"But," he declared "the govern
1nents stake in, and its control over,
private business being what they
are, there Is point beyond which
neither state nor local government
nor industry can go until national
policies are determined and an
nounced."
Warren said the governors should
have o hand in working out those
problems.
The determination Of western
states to retain their war-born
manufacturing industries was re-
fected in Warren's discussion OF
regional problems"
He said that for generations some
regions have not been able, for rea-
sons beyond their control, to use
their national resources for indus
trial development but in the war
emergency they have realized that
ambition to some extent.
They do not propose, II they can
help II, to give up the gains they
have made Warren said. They
should not be asked to do so, partic-
ularly when the establishment Of

He read to the conference tele-
gram from President Roosevelt

many Of our troubles"
McGrath, speaking principally or
public works as an aid to employ
ment In the reconversion period
proposed that the federal govern
ment set up a public works fund to
be loaned to the states to finance
such activities.
I'm this manner" he said, "as
much money would be available for
public works as under q federal
grant system, but we would divorce
ourselves from the top heavy costs
Of federal controls and the respon-
Sibility would rest upon each Of the
sovereign states to conduct their
postwar building programs in ac-
cordance with sound principles OF
business administration.
IF the states are capable-aS all
Of the mare-in administering their
complex systems of government they

ton"
Politics
The convention atmosphere was
charged heavily with Republican
politics by the pre- sence Of three Of
the most frequently mentioned COP
presidential nomination possibilities,
Two Of them-Governor Thomas
e. Dewey Of New York and Gov
ernor John w. Bricker Of Ohio
broke the convention eve quiet with
separate hour-long press conferences
which revolved around the question
of the proper conduct for a presi-
Dental aspirant.
In contrast to his message To
Dewey-pledged convention delegates
In the recent Wisconsin primary tc
cease working on his behalf, how
ever, he conceded that he now was
doing nothing" to discourage q
draft-Dewey movement.
He admitted that he had read In
newspapers and been told that there
were enough Dewey delegates to get
the nomination on the first ballot
Of the epublican national conen-
ton meeting in Chicago June 26,
denied any personal knowledge that
such reports were true but con-
coded:
I'm afraid it is beyond the stage
Of rumor."
When asked whether he thought
that President Roosevelt should an
nounce he would be a fourth term
candidate, Dewey remarked that
"he got by in 1870"
In response to a question as to
whether he considered that good
strategy, Dewey said his theory was
to never give advice to the oppo-
sition."
