|Offer Of Cabinet Post
To Wheeler Within
Few Months Predicted
By Phelps Adams
North Ansricon Newspaper Alliance

Former Senator Burton K.
Wheeler of Montana was reported
today to have patched up his diff
ferences with the national admin
istration and to be heading for an
important post in President Tru-
mans official family.
At least one among Mr.. Wheeler's
friends in the Senate insisted TO-DAY
that the Montana Democrat would
be offered a cabinet post within the
coming months.
Mr.. Wheeler came to the Senate
as a progressive Democrat in 1873
and was q candidate for the vice
presidency on the Progressive Par
tvs ticket, headed by Senator Robert
La Toilette in 1924. At the outset
of his fourth Senate term. he split
with President Roosevelt and the
New Deal on the Supreme Court
packing issue, and thus was en-
broiled in one of the bitterest feuds
which the Capital has seen In recent
years.
| Defeated In PRIMARIES.
Last year he was defeated In the
primaries when he sought the DEM
ocratic nomination for fifth term
Mr.. Wheeler returned to the pri-
vate practice OF law here and early
this year was persuaded to accept
a post as counsel to the Senate War
Investigating Committee.
Because the salary which the COM
mittee was able to pay was small
Congress passed and sent to the
| White House a bill which would
have permitted the former Senator
| to continue the private practice OF
! law while serving as committee
counsel. This President Truman
vetoed.
Senatorial sources report that the
President was deeply disturbed by
Mr.. Wheeler's action in accepting
the committee post rendered to him
by the Republican leadership, pre-
pairing to begin an investigation OF
alleged scandals in connection with
the purchase of oil for the Navy.
The President, in long conference
with Mr.. Wheeler, Is reliably re-
ported to have told the Montanan
that a promising future awaited
him within the Democratic party,
and that he should not desert 1t.
Remained With Committee.
Despite this appeal, Mr.. Wheeler
remained with the committee fol
some weeks after his interview with
the President AN danother bill au-
thorizing committee counsel to con-
tinue to pursue the private practice
! of law was sent to the President
While this bill was before the Presi-
dent, committee members were
startled by a report that Attorney
General Clark would resign this
month, and that the President would
appoint Mr.. Wheeler to succeed him
Within two hours after this re-
port reached the committee, Chair
man Brewster received Mr.. Wheel
er's resignation as committee coun-
sci and within a few hours after
the news of the resignation had

Stop-Dewey Campaign Spurred
By Governors Western Trip

Harold E. Stassen of Minnesota said
he hopes the delegate strength of
Senator Taft of Ohio measures up
to expectations In certain sections of
the country, particularly in the
South.
The obvious inference is that
what is Senator Taft's will not be
Gov. Dewey's.
Similarly, some Taft supporters
say they would like to see Mr.,
Stassen-or anybody else, for that
Imatter-block Gov. Dewey out In
States where they think the Ohio
Senator has little support at pres
ent.
Mr.. Stassen, the only announced
candidate, has been eyeing South
ern delegates. But his recent trip
| to Texas has been regarded as a
bid for secondary support in an
area where Senator Taft has been
the favorite in the past.
! Mr.. Stassen already has framed
direct challenge to Gov. Dewey
in Wisconsin, where Wendell Willkie

met his political Waterloo IN 1914.
That year Gov Dewey played coy,
but took the ma ajority Of the dele
gate crop anyway.
The New York Governors home
State of Michigan may be holdout
from the Dewey column because of
the uncertainty about the possible
candidacy of Senator Vandenberg.
Senator Vandenberg, who appar-
entity has as much-if not more
popular appeal as any Republican
today, remains available, but has
made no discernible effort to get
any delegates. He told the Michigan
Republican convention, in effect,
not to indorse him.
But Michigan Republicans are
expected to hold themselves in
readiness.

Gov. Thomas E. Dewey's scheduled
invasion of the West stirred fresh
speculation in Washington today OF
possible stop-Dewey drive among
other prospective candidates for the
1e48 Republican presidential NOM
ination.
The New York Governors July
iunket to scenic points beyond the
Mississippi is regarded by Repub-
licans here as more of vote-seeking
trip than the sightseeing tour 1t has
been labeled in Albany dispatches.
While Gov. Dewey has said he is
taking his family along and making
no speeches, his friends haven't
tried to deny that he plans to meet
about as many Republican leaders
as want to see him.
He will make a stop in Salt Lake
City for the annual Governors Con-
ference, which sometimes has pro-
vided a sounding board for Gov
Dewey in the past.
All of which has started talk
among friends OF some other Re
publican aspirants about gangins
up against the New Yorker In the
partys Philadelphia convention, 8
little more than year away.
But one COP Senator who is GER
! tain to carry his States favorite-
son Endorsement into that conven-
ton, said he thinks the stop-Dewey
urge among other possible candi-
dates will never iell into even an
underground agreement among
them.
Instead, this Senator said he ex-
poets that opponents will put their
faith in favorite sons and the
strength of more widely supported
candidates, each hoping for stale
mate that will give him a chance
for the nomination.
