Wallace Is Reported
RooseveIt's Choice
For Running Mate
~ the Associated Press

~ the Associated Press.
Reports spread In congressional
circles today that Vice President
Wallace has received presidential
best wishes for success in his CAM
paign for second-place renomina-
ton on ticket Mr.. Roosevelt is
expected by many to head in a
fourth-term bid.
The reports were linked to a con-
ference Mr.. Wallace had with the
President shortly before he took of
recently for Siberia and China
Friends In the Senate said MFR. Wal.
lace obviously was pleased with the
results of discussion that appar-
emily touched on political as vel
as diplomatic matters.
There have been some efforts te
unite the anti-Wallace groups be.
hind single candidate. Appeal.
thus have been made to supporter.
Of House Speaker Rayburn, Senator:
Truman. Democrat, of Missouri ane
Barkley, Democrat, of Kentucky and
others to join In backing a man who
would be acceptable to the Presi-
dent and might prove a better vote
getter than Mr.. Wallace.
The name Of Justice William o,
Douglas is reported to have been
suggested In some of these con-
ferences, although there was doubt
that Justice Douglas himself would
be interested.
This development on the Demo-
cratic side came as Indiana, the next
to the last State to form a delega-
tion to the June rs Republican
Nominating Committee convention.
began picking its % delegates.
Twenty-Five will be chosen In dis
trict caucuses tonight and the other
seven at the State convention
Friday.
Gov. John w. Bricker of Ohio
called again yesterday on Gov.
Thomas E. Dewey of New York and
other party leaders for an open dis
cussion of current issues, telling an
interviewer at Hershey, Pa:
Il am not criticizing Dewey or
any other candidate, but want the
leaders Of the party to assume, the
responsibility of presenting the
issues honestly and frankly. .
The party is entitled to know the
position of an who would assume
to be leaders of the party"
Speaking at Lancaster, Gov
Bricker said the first aim of the
American people after the wal
should be to free the country from
needless costly bureaucracy"
He told the Lancaster TRAFFIC
Club last night that the 'NeW
Deal philosophy OF government
- deprives people OF their lib
critics and their powers OF self
government"
Gen. Bricker said that "unless
free enterprise is preserved and en-
couraged here in America and I'M
less our energy is turned into as
many new fields of production as
possible, our armed forces win be
dennobili1ed into some new and
ghastly WPA."

Every day in every way it ap-

The army is discharging perfectly

no use for any such assistants.
And so it goes. The money is

in the federal government it seems
to be a race to see who can squan-
