That was Mrs. Anne Thomas

She twisted q handkerchief and
tears welled behind her spectacles.
In response to the reporters time
honored question "how do you feel?"
Mrs. Dewey responded q bit sharply:
How else would I feel at a time
like this? I'm proud"
The radio was blaring, both the
telephone and the doorbell were
ringing, and no one in the. modest
white frame house had had time
for supper.
Asked if she thought Michigan's S
delegation, which had been voting
for Senator Vandenberg, would sup
port her son on the third ballot,

Rail Talks DeadIocked
Still Despite White House
BY the Assoeioted Press

There were no signs of progress
today toward breaking the deadlock
in the dispute between three unions
and railroad management, although
the White House continued its
maneuvering to develop some basis
for agreement.
The Government continued tech
nically to run the railroads through
the Army as 1t has since President
Truman ordered their seizure May H.
The rail unions involved-the
locomotive engineers, firemen and
enginemen, and switchmen - are
under a temporary court order not
to strike while the Government re-
mains in control of the carriers.
Justice T. Alan Goldsborough, who
issued the order, has said he will
decide next Tuesday whether to
keep the injunction in force.
Presidential Assistant John Steel
man has continued White House
efforts to get the unions and man
agement together. After the latest
discussions yesterday the White
House reported little appreciable
progress.

PHILADELPHIA June 25.-Dark-
haired Frances Hutt Dewey, for
the second time in four years, stood
quiet and smiling beside her hus-
band before a roaring convention
crowd. And less than an hour later
last night, the wife of the presi-
dental nominee turned in for the
night.
Yesterday was long, gruelling
day for Mrs. Dewey.
In the company of a few aides,
she sat in Bellevue-Stratford
Hotel room and tabulated the votes
as she watched the afternoon ses-
sion unfold on a television set in
the corner Once in a while. the
Governor would pop in for few
minutes. The two boys, Tom, jr., Is,
and John, IL. were at the big show.
Mrs. Dewey was calm but alert. Her
slight touch of laryngitis seemed
better
Again she took her place near
the video screen when the evening
session began. Then suddenly the
mounting tension collapsed.
Bricker Speaks and It's Over.
The face of Ohio's Senator Bricker
appeared. He spoke and it was all
over.
Mrs Dewey looked down a mo-
ment, touched her face lightly with
her hands and gave a deep, deep
sigh.
Il guess" she said quietly, I'D
better 60 put on my hat"
A minute later Gov. Dewey
walked into the suite. He went di-
rectly to his wife, standing in front
of the mirror in their bedroom.
They clasped each other and stood
silent and still for a moment
Within two minutes the Governor
walked out into the hall where re-
porters and photographers were
waiting and marched down to a
nearby room.
His wife, still wearing the simple
black faille suit, black-and-white
print blouse and delicate orchid cor
sage which had been her costume
all day, followed him a minute
later. She smiled and said hello
as she passed the ,newsmen. But
she withheld all comment pending
q news conference this morning.
Soon she was on her husbands
arm and-f1anked by police, on her
way to Convention Hall.
Stands Silently Beside Governor.
There she stood silently at the
Governors side, smiling OCCASION
ally to the crowd but mostly look
ing intently up at the new nominee.
There was just the trace of a tear
as they turned to leave.
