such standard have no hesitancy
in prophesying that q majority Of
the American electorate will eagerly

is the last word But we are con-
fident that We point the way Just

"Satisfactory". to Dewey.
The plank, 1t is reported, Is salts
factory to Gov. Dewey Of New York,
the expected presidential nominee
of the COP. Indeed, John Foster
Dulles, New York lawyer, who has
been Mr.. Dewey's principal adviser
on international relations, worked
with the committee on the draft.
Here is the text OF the plank as
presented:
we pledge:
81. Prosecution of the war to total
victory against all our enemies in
full cooperation with the United
Nations.
"2. Support Of. our armies and
maintenance Of our Navy with
every civilian resource under the
competent and trained direction of
our General staff and Ofice OF
Naval Operations without civilian
interference.
IS. Organization of the home
front to the maximum of our civil
ian resources, eliminating incom-
petence, vacillation and red tape.
against All Enemies"
I'VE declare our relentless aim to
win the war against all our enc
mics; d) for our American security
and welfare; (2) to make the Axis
powers impotent to renew tyranny
and attack; 60 for the attainment
of peace and freedom based on
justice and security.
I'VE shall achieve such aims
through organized international CO.
operation and not by joining world
state.
I'VE favor responsible participa-
tion by the United States in a post
war co - operative organization
among sovereign nations to prevent
military aggression and to attain
permanent peace with organized
justice In free world.
Such organization should develop
effective cooperative means to di-
rect peace forces to prevent or repel
military aggression. Pending this,
we pledge continuing collaboration
with the principal United Nations to
assure these ultimate objectives.
I'VE believe, however, that peace
and security do not depend upon the
sanction Of force alone but should
prevail by virtue of reciprocal in
terests and spiritual values, re-
eognized in these security agree
ments. The treaties of peace ought
to be just; the nations which are
the victims of Axis aggressions
should be restored to sovereignty
and self government, and the Or
ganized cooperation of the nations
should concern itself with basic
causes of world disorder. 1t should
promote a world opinion to in
fluence the nations to right conduct
develop international law and main
tain an international tribunal to
deal with justiciable disputes.
I'VE shall seek in our relations
with other nations. conditions cal
culated to promote world wide
economic stability, not only for the
sake of the world but also to the
end that our own people may enjoy
a high level Of employment in an
increasingly prosperous world. We
shall develop pan-American soil.
