DEWEY CHEERED
BY CHlCAC0ANS

CHICAGO, Oct. 25-RECheere
bv station crowds along his wa
down the west shore Of Lake Mich
igan. Gov. Thomas E. Dewey cam
into Chicago today for ma1ol
broadcast on what he termed cor
rupt political patronage.
Greeted by what he called .;
tremendous outpouring OF citl
zens. the Republican presidential
candidate told a news conference
he had no doubt that President
Roosevelt instructed leaders al
the Democratic National conven'
ton in Chicago to clear every
thing with Sidney"
Asked by a reporter it Dewey
believed the President had told
his party's leaders here In July to
"clear everything with Sidney
Hillman, chairman Of the CLIO Po'
ltical Action committee, Dewey
replied:
There is not the slightest doubt
about it,
Another reporter asked Dewey to
comment on the assertion OF Sena.
tor Truman D-Mo), the democrat
ic vice-presidential nominee, that
Dewey had declined to repudiate
the support Of senator's whom Tru-
man has called ''isolationists" and
on Truman's comment that Dewey
must be known "by the company
he keeps" .
Dewey replied that Truman's
comment suggests something Tor
the people of the United States to
think about when they consider
who put Truman where he is and
what words were used in that con-
nection."
Dewey's arrival in Chicago was
greeted by crowd that filled the
lobby Of the Chicago and North
western station and gathered in
Canal street outside the terminal.

lie continued.
aIf we permit initiation to- get
out of bounds, the danger of SUBJ
sequent collapse will be that much
| greater" he warned.
For the first five months after
We Day, food prices may sag away
from ceilings because of the near
balance of supply and demand, but
there will probably be no sagging
away of prices Of textiles, shoes,
and durable goods, because the
pressure there is much tighter, he
disclosed. ss
The following five months will
probably bring the start of drop
ping Of price control, by commodity
groups, he added -
As result of price control, farm
prices have risen as far and as
rapidly with the control during this
war as without the control during
the last war. Farm costs, however,
have been held down much more
during this war than the last, he
continued.
At the end Of World War /, farm
prices had risen 1870 per cent and
farm costs were up 90 per cent,
while so far during this war, farm
ers have received an increase Of
1T per cent in sales, and farm
costs have been held down to 80
per cent.
In the pricing OF reconverteo
goods, our general object is to get
IS close to 1912 prices as we pos
sibly can, with adjustments in some
leases on industry-wide basis and
in some others on an individual
basis, DR.. Brooks revealed.
1T is our hope, he continued,
that this can be done, because 20
companies do about 80 per cent Of
the total business in the recover
sion field, and IL major commodity
groups make up about IS per cent
of the goods to be reconverted.
The other Is per cent will be
turned out by about $4,000 small
companies.
ut is our desire that pricing in
the major commodity groups be
set up by Washington, in coopera-
ton with the Industry Advisory
COMMITTEES, and pricing for the re-
manning Is per cent be worked out
in Washington by the Industry Ad-
visory committees, in cooperation
with District offices on the basis Of
Standards" he concluded.
DR.. Brooks was introduced by
Cyrus D. Hogue, who paid tribute
to the great service rendered to
the community by Q. II. Shoemak-
er, recently resigned head of the
New Hanover War Price and Ra-
tloning board.

Under the direction Of Lieut.. E. J.

invited the public to attend the

From July, 1914, to Arnistic,

Both inflationarv and deflation-

tematized manner, and action was
taken to create a more active as
ISOLATION in the county.
| Considerable discussion last night
was heard on lost motion in New
Hanover Superior court. It was
pointed out that great number
of cases appeared on the court
calendar which were never tried.
Numerous reasons were given
as to why a case should be con-
tinued for further action and law
yers were of the opinion that TOO
much time wa; required between
the time cases were placed on the
calendar and the time they were
tried.
Murray James, chairman of the
calendar committee, said that each
member of the bar should not re-
quest that a case be set for trial
until after he had exhausted ev-
cry effort to settle without trial,
and should not ask that it be set
for trial if there were any rea-
sons why it could not be tried.
Then, when placed on the calendar
for trial, he said. they should not
be continued at the request OF
counsel unless a legal excuse had
developed that the counsel did not
know previously. I'm this way,
he said, $50 much lost motion
can be overcome.
The matter was referred to the
law reform committee. consisting
of Aaren Goldburg, chairman, j..
D. Carr, r. M. Kermon and S. F..
Lotion.
Several members Of the Associa-
ton praised District Solicitor Cliff
ton Moore Of Burgaw who was pre-
sent for his frankness and fairness
to all defendants and lawyers ap-
pearing in criminal court.
Eve sincerely appreciated his
ability as a lawyer, but above
all we respect him as a member
| OF the legal community" it was
said.
Solicitor Moore was praised for
his consistent service.
Speaking to the members, Moore
said that criminal litigation IS
not decreasing. We disposed OF
more cases last year than ever
before" he said.
The solicitor asked that a special
committee be appointed to study
the court situation in the county.
"These meetings are beneficial
to local bar members in giving
them an opportunity to discuss To-
| cal problems and becoming bet
ter acquainted, he said in describ-
ing his sentiments to the attor-
neys.
Local lawyers have not assun-
ed an unfriendly attitude toward
him by reason of the duties OF his
office, he told them.
He also said he appreciated
statement by a local attorney,
who told him he did not hit below
the belt
J. @. LeGrande, state representa-
tive nominee from this district,
told lawyers that more orderly
system of settling civil cases
should be followed, and that I'M
necessary continuances should be
Illuminated.
The meeting was presided over
by Marsden Bellamy. president.
Minutes of the last meeting, which
was held February 7, were read BY
Clayton c. Holmes, secretary and
treasurer.

BLOOMINGTON, Ind, Oct. 3d.
Indiana gained momentum up the
Western Conference championship
trail today by swamping under
manned Iowa, 80 to 0, for their third
Big Ten conquest against one loss.
Freshman Dick Deranek took the
spotlight from the great Bob
(Hunchy) Hoernschemeyer as he
sped for touchdowns in the first
and second periods on brilliant runs
of 46 and 81 yards.
But Hunchy was very much in
evidence all afternoon as he ran and
passed to spearhead a Hoosier Of
Tense that rolled up a total of 18
first downs and 358 yards gained.
Without Dick Woodard the Hawk
eyes gained only II yards by rushing
and none by passing and got only
two first downs.
