ALBANY, N. Y, Jan. 5.-Gov
Thomas E. Dewey today predicted
State treasury surplus of Sl4O,-
100000 in 1914 and exhorted New
York's Legislature to lock it up
in a special fund for postwar re-
construction and employment.
The prediction and proposal fea-

extensively with solutions to prob

Urging that freezing of the sur

Gov. Dewey asserted.
When the men in our armed
forces and the workers in our war
plants return to their peacetime oc-
cupations they have right to expect
that we, at least, shall have done
our part to help create employment
opportunities
Gov. Dewey, who many observers
believe may be subjected to a
draft for the Republican presidential
nomination, confined his 6,5OO-wor
message to State issues.
He described in his message a

pute between the Alexandria board

affair is tempest in a teapot. :"

Soldier Ballot Bill
Near Vote in GEORGIA
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
ATLANTA, Jan. 5-A revised SOL
dier voting bill, designed to reconcile
differences between the House and
the Senate but not substantially.
different from the original measure,
was brought up for passage today
at Georgia's special legislative ses-
sion.
House Speaker Roy v. Harris said
the substitute measure was agreed
on by legislative leaders after a
conference with Gov. Ellis Arnall in
an effort to expedite legislation to
facilitate absentee voting by nearly
250,000 Georgians in the armed
forces. /
Meanwhile efforts to call by petit
ton an extra session of the Legis-
lature TO consider repeating Geor-
.gia's liquor law were abandoned by
the sponsors.
Representatives Eugene E. Yawn
OF Eastman and G. D. Battles, sr.. of
Bainridge, who started circulation of
the petition yesterday, said they had
decided it would be futile to con-
tinue lin the face of administration
opposition" Signatures of three
flfths Of the 205 House members and
the 50 Senate members would have
been required to force the extra
session. Mr.. Yawn said the petition
had been signed by only five or six
Representatives when he and Mr..
Battles determined to withdraw it.
A Senate amendment to the vote
bill providing that creation of a
State war ballot commission would
not abridge existing rights of ap-
peal to the courts, and another re-
vising a section abolishing the poll
tax as a prerequisite for voting by
service men and women, were reject
ed in the substitute measure. The
original version was changed how
ever, to make certain that the poll
tax exemption would not extend be-
yond the term of military service.
Otherwise the substitute incor-
porated all the amendments ad-
vanced by the Senate, with one
minor exception.

U. S, Britain Establish
New Agency 10 Study
Caribbean Problems
b. the Associated Press.


Creation of a system of West
Indian conferences to give the de-
pendent peoples of British and
American islands in the Caribbean
voice in deciding their social and
economic future was announced yes
terday by the glo-American
Caribbean Commission.
1t may serve as a model for other
regional agencies expected to be
set up in the postwar period. The
British Colonial Once is known to
be deeply interested in its successful
development.
This is the third agency created
in two years to handle problems
common to British and American
Caribbean territories. The first was
the joint commission, which at the
start was concerned mainly with
food shortages and other economic
Embellishments caused by the war.
Research Group in Action.
Late last year the two govern
ments established, as an adviser to
the commission, a Caribbean re-
search council to handle the techni-
cal aspects of such matters as fishery
development and improved food
production in the islands.
The regional conference also is
an advisory group to be composed of
both official and unofficial repre-
sentatives and to make recon-
mendations for commission action.
The official members, in general,
will speak for the British and
American governments in the is
lands, and the unoficial members
will represent the island peoples.
Will Meet Soon.
Membership will change according
to the subjects to be discussed at
successive meetings, though the con-
ference will have permanent secre- |
tariat. The first meeting will be
held early this year, probably in one
of the British islands and under
British Craftsmanship since the
main problem for discussion is likely
to concern British interests pri-
marily.
That is the problem of providing
equipment and materials for a $24,-

Mr.. Cullum added that he also
had received an application blank
which he was requested to fill out
and file with the board. He declared
however, that before taking such
action he would ask Mr.. Faulconer
to explain why he held the ODT
certificates of war necessity filed
December II by Mr. Cullum with the
board until Monday without notify
Ing the postmaster that a formal
application for gas was necessary.
He pointed out that the card sent
him by Mr.. Faulconer also stated
that the postmaster's application
had been approved, indicating that
no further steps were necessary to
obtain the gasoline.
Mr.. Cullum also asserted the chief
clerk had written him requesting
that he mail back to the board the
certificates of war necessity which
had been returned to the POST Office
together with Mr. Faulconer's card
He said this is the first time that
such a request has been made. The
certificates, he explained, are kept
by the post office for three months,
when they are sent to the ration
board along with request for gaso-
line coupons.

In a letter Monday to K. P
Aldrich, First Assistant Postmaster
General, Mr.. Cullum charged that
his office could collect and dispatch
only part of the mail scheduled
to go out Sunday night because the
ration board had not sent him
any gas coupons. He said he haC
requested the coupons on December
IT, when he sent the board several
certificates OF war necessity together
with letter asking that the neces-
sary coupons be issued.
He also contended that the delay
was the result of his reprimand OF
Mr.. Faulconer last summer after
patrons complained they were not
receiving ration books mailed by
the board.
He declared his difficulties in OBJ
tanning gasoline for Post Office
trucks were connected with the
Brooke Lee political machine, :"

DEAR DOROTHY DIX: read In
the paper where some colonel said
that WACS would make better
wives than women who had had no

this is true?
SERVICEMAN'S WIFE.
Answer-Well, I can think OF
several ways in which an army
training would benefit the domestic
technique of women and make them
more soothing companions to live
with. For one thing, a wife who
had been disciplined by a drill SER
geant would take orders from her
husband more meekly than one who
was accustomed to handing him
back talk when he even dared to
make a suggestion to her.
For another thing, the lady SOL
dier would have had habits of neat
ness and order ground into her 20
thoroughly that she would never
leave hairs in the brush and the top
of of the tooth paste. And perhaps
a global war will teach women how
to do things on time, so that the
