Dewey and Stassen
Confer Over Phone OF
Campaign Issues
By the Associated Press

PAWLING, N. Y, Aug. 5.-Gov.
Thomas E. Dewey and Harold E.
Stassen conferred "at length" by
telephone late last night on the in
flation problem, the meat supply and
other campaign issues"
Announcement of the conference
between the Republican presidential
nominee and Mr.. Stassen on mat
tiers drawing fire in Congress was
made by Gov. Dewey's press secre-
tary, James C. Hagerty.
Gov. Dewey talked to the former
Minnesota Governor from his
Quaker Hill farm home here. Mr.
Stassen, who lost the nomination to
Dewey, was at his home in st. Paul
MINI.
Mr.. Hagerty also disclosed that the
telephone talk on campaign strategy
was the second that Gov. Dewey and
Mr.. Stassen have had this week.
Mr. Stassen recently visited the
New York Governor at Mr.. Dewey's
home here. At that time Mr.. Stas-
sen said he planned to play an
active part in the campaign.
Just what part Mr.. Stassen will
take apparently was discussed last
night, but Mr.. Hagerty said there
was no final decision as to how the
two Republicans will dovetail their
speeches"
However, the topics considered
during the conference seemed to
indicate Mr.. Stassen might dea.

the meat situation.
Gov. Dewey spent most of yester-
day going over a preliminary out

The other four counties
W hi h with Montgomery
make up the Sixth Congress
sional District having return
ed substantial majorities for
Mr.. Beall, he will be returned
to Congress for his fourth
term. The charter county
manager form of government
won by 1907 votes-"yes"
1886, mo" 1882. The re-
turns from the 81 precincts
in the county showed 2 to /
or better vote against the
charter in all the up Coun-
ty" areas with Bethesda,
Chevy Chase and Silver
Spring casting especially
heavy majorities in it's favor.
The total number of qualified
voters in the county is 81, 1881. OF
these 1854 went to the polls on
Tuesday. Broken down, the regis
tration is 34,199 Democrats and
1873 Republicans. Those who de-
clined to state any party utilization
numbered 2,784, and Is are regis
tered with miscellaneous parties
such as Socialists, Progressives,
etc.
In 1914, 35,742 persons voted. In
1916, $1,000 went to the polls in
the county. This years vote of
38,584 was a record one.
This was the second time the
"home rule" issue had gone before
the people. A charter drawn up
and voted on in 1914 was defeated
by 1885 votes in the face of about
opposition from the Democratic
administration.
In contrast to the 1914 charter
election, Tuesdays referendum
was marked by a less vigorous OPP
position. Both major parties took
a position of neutrality in the
issue.
A court fight last summer to
keep charter off the ballot was un-
successful. Opponents claimed a
budgetary provision conficted with
the State Constitution, but the
Maryland Court Of Appeals upheld
the charter drafters.
The charter as adopted will set
up seven member county council
to pass all local laws now enacted
by the General Assembly. A $12,-
600 year county manager with
broad powers would be hired.
The charter, barring unexpected
legal blocks, will become effective
December 2, the present Montgom.

parade, Betty Joe Wear, Dot Wear
and Norman Smith. The funniest
costume was worn by Helen eau
