Both Wendell Willkie and
Tom Dewey were defeated by
Republicans who increased the

1t is ineXact TO attribute this
circumstance TO the war. In
1910. there was no war: in 1914,
the war was not really an issue
for Dewey never attacked the
conduct of the war nor the &C
knowledged pattern for peace.
In fact, the Hull-Du1les agree
ment placed the Republican
party in full support of Dunn
barton Oaks.
The selection is far enough

that Tom Dewey and his advis-
orS missed the mood of the OPP

not devote themselves TO keep

Her speech started as an eX-

age. il ended as an owl adver-

Secretary of the Interior Ickes
announced today the signing Of a
contract between the Bureau of Re-
clamation and the National Re-
sources Commission of China. It
calls for bureau engineers to pre-
pare the designs and specifications
for what may be the largest con-
crete dam ever built.
The Chinese government will pay
an estimated $500, 900 to the bureau
for its technical assistance.
The contract carries no commit
ment for actual construction which
Mr.. Ickes said rests entirely with the
Chinese government and might re-
quire IS years or more.
Key feature of the proposed de-
velopment plan is a dam larger thar

gorge of the Yangtze near Ichang in

reading the DeLacy speech, resulted
from the fact that he saw, in the
speech, additional confirmation of
his suspicious that his own reports
to the State Department were being
permitted to leak out to critics.
! Gen. Hurley, his friends said. had
been under attack by such journals
as the Daily Worker" Pm" and
by "fellow-travelers" in and out of
the State Department, and he saw
in some of the criticism material
which he believed could have only
come from those with access to his
messages
When he returned from China
some weeks ago, he had made up his
mind to resign. But he first went
to New Mexico for rest and on his
return to Washington prepared q
report on alleged sabotage of his
policies in China by representatives
of the State Department.
To support his report, he prepared
a file of "intercepts" he had OBJ
tanned in China, purporting to show
that while he was working with
Generalissimo Chang Kai-shek and
Chinese Communist leaders toward
q reconciliation, the Chinese Com
muniSts were being told, in effect, by
other representatives of the State
Department that they should not
pay too much attention to what Gen.
Hurley was saying, that his policies
were not the permanent" policies
of the President and the State De-
partment.
1t Is reported that after the death
of President Roosevelt, such Incl
dents multiplied and brought about
change in the attitude of the
Chinese Communists, which Gen.
Hurley attributed directly to the
sabotage" of those whom he con-
sidered Communist sympathizers in
the State Department.
He is said to have the evidence
now in the form of messages sent
to the Communists and intercepted
by American agents in China. They
are a part of the documents which
Gen. Hurley is said to have shown
the President and Secretary Byrnes.
/ In the course of his speech in the
House Mr.. De Lacy declared:
1T was Gen. Hurley, sent to China
specifically to help heal the rift
between Chang and the Commun-
lists, who reversed our policy OF
bringing about an understanding
between a coalition for victory over
Japan and stable, democratic
postwar China"
The Representative also declared
that Hurley backed the generals

ton" in the form Of cables sent from
China by correspondents of the As
Sociated Press, the United Press, the
New York Times and others. Ir

formal talks with some officials In
the State Department.

charges need no more confirmation

he was completely on one side ir

unification of all factions there.
