STASSEN, TAFT IN
 TALKFEST
Report of Meeting Causes Stampede of Delegates
 from Big Hall
By RELMAN MORN

PHILADELPHIA, June 23.-IRl- The Republican convention has moved away today from Conven- tion Hall to that celebrated hotel room, long distinguished in Amer ican political history for it's foggy atmosphere.
 It went there on freight ele- vator.
 The other occupant of the eleva- tor-and descending very rapidly was Senator Robert A. Taft, who slipped out the back entrance of the Ben Franklin Hotel and went to midnight rendezvous with candidate Harold E. Stassen. The maneuver, of course, was to avoid newspapermen.
 The atmosphere here is so sur charged with electricity that it was only a matter of minutes, there alter, before most of the 14,000 people, jammed in Convention Hall, knew what was taking place.
 People began leaving the hall at once. Great bald patches of empty seats greeted handsome Rep. Katharine St. George, of New York, when she rose to deliver the con- cluding address of the evening.
 Near Panic
 In effect, the convention began its change of venue late yesterday afternoon. When Gov Dewey's announced that Senator Ed Martin. carrying an estimated 40 Pennsylvania votes, had cross ed to the Dewey side of the field, something comparable to panic set in.
 Until then. the situation had been hanging in delicate balance.
 It appeared to be tipped slight ly, but by no means definitely, in the direction of Gov. Dewey.
 Then came the news from Penn sylvania. It was like large chunk on anthracite landing on scale built for weighing molecules.
 A description of the meeting be- tween Tart and Stassen is not now available. The Senator locked him. self into a conference room on the eighth floor of the hotel and did not show himself again un- til 2:10 a. m. when he left to go to bed.
 One communique was issued, however, by an aide. T wish you guys would move on down the hall" he said. We got heavy thinking to do in here
 Gloomy Taftites
 Meanwhile, the many support CTS of the Senator stood in little knots in the lobby below, glumly staring at the four-leaf clovers they have chosen as the Senator's symbol. No music was sounding Little Eva, the baby elephant, was gone. The pretty Ohio clerks were as pretty as ever, but not so ex- uberant. Disaster brooded heavily over the hotel. It was so quiet you could seem to hear time homb ticking.
 The Taft delegates, however, de- nied any apprehension whatever.
 Tt can still change" said one.
 TDuff's still got the other 33 yotes," said another, and they'll go to Bob"
 They can't lick old Bob,' added a third. And then he asked, thoughfully: What kind of iel- low is this fellow Dewey?"

gees, unable to return to their home lands.
 MT Berg took us frs. t' the hospital staffed by DIP doctors. nurses, laboratory technicians, phar- macists and general help Their
 hospital they had bull. themselves from the ruins of d bombed build ing. To it's excellent staff is given much of the credit for ihe nigh health rate at the Hanau Camp.
 Vocational Training
 The shops were inspected under the guidance of Dcnald Moxeiey an army captain who remained in Germany as vocational training specialist with the IRO. People in the camp, young and some nos 50 young, are tested Tor abilities and are given such training as their tests and interest indicate. Training shops we saw included blacksmith: tinsmith, where the only material available for use was the tin of ten gallon cans-what those boys made from cans would provide the utensil needs of any household. There was an electrical shop, radio shop. Though school hours were over, young toys were still around, work ing overtime on various projects interested intelligent craftsmen
 Women learn sewing, weaving develop housekeeping skills. All they need is more material. They have so pitifully little to work with.
 MT. Berg took us to their homes homes of one room in which three to five persons lived. Here the families prepare breakfast and an evening meal, The monday dinner is prepared in the camp kitchens. This is a brief review of our trip to tie camp and in no way conveys the diligence, industry of the people, the neatness of their crowded homes, We liked their looks.
 Not Unlike Alaska Because their countries in climate and occupations are not unlike Alas |ka, Gen. Wood is interested in the possible settlement of Balts in the Territory.
 Col Harold s. Pomeroy recently made a survey of the possibility of settling Balts in Alaska and from Gen. Wood we learned that his report was not encouraging. In conversation with Gen. Wood, Col Anthony Riddle, U. S.. Col. Sage, we learned that the Army, while in- terested in placing refugees in Alas ka in numbers from one or two or any small group to numbers suffi- cient to staff a pulp mill-should Alaska ever get pulp mill-the feeling is that any such movement should be instituted by the Alaskans Alaska's small population is ap- preciated and only under circum- stances that would be approved by Alaskans and which would be con- patible to the refugees would any settlement, small or large, be con- sidered.
 The refugees were assured home and protection by the army. Of the 8,0o0,000 displaced persons that the German armies had forced into Germany from other countries of Europe which they had occupied, T. 900 ,000 had returned to their homes in 1946. There are now about 500,000 |residing in the American zone and it is these with whom the Army is especially concerned

 SENATOR I5
 CANDIDATE
Permits His Name 10 Be Proposed = Drive for
 Dewey Heading On
By JACK BELL

CONVENTION HALL, PHILA- DELPHIA, June 23.--tR-Senator Arthur II. vandenberg gave con- sent today for his name to be placed formally in nomination for the Presidency at the Republican National Convention. (.
 His move cheered those Presi- dential hopefuls--led by Senator Robert A. Taft and Harold E. Stassen-who were trying desper- ately to halt Gov. Thomas E. Dewey's blitz bid of the nomina- tion on an early ballot. They figured vandenberg' name before the convention would hold from Dewey some votes which other wise might race to him.
 vandenberg stuck by his stand that he is not actively seeking the nomination. But Gov. Kim Sigler oi Michigan said he had obtained the Senator's consent for him to put up his name.
 Drive For Dewey
 Dewey's big drive got anoth- CT push, this time from Missouri. Senator James P. Rem, chairman of the Missouri delegation issued this announcement: T have decid- ed to support Governor Dewey. I look forward to his nomination on an early ballot. I believe he will be the next President of the United States.v M s
 Even before Kem's announce ment, an Associated Press check indicated Dewey would get l8 of Missouris 33 votes on the first ballot with others split among three or four candidates.
 Asked if he was nominating Van- denberg in the belief Vandenherg can win or as a gesture of respect, Sigler replied If didn't honestly believe there was real hope of winning 1 would not nominate him"
 yandenberg Appears
 Sigler made the announcement alter vandenberg had put in his first appearance at the Michigan headquarters.
 These workers for the nomination of Vandenberg have tacG discourag- ed by his aloof attitude and the Senator made an apologetic little speech.
 T know I am a problem child for you.p he told the Michigan group. but set my course year ago and must steer 1t to the fin- ish.v
 He said year ago that he would not seek the nomination. but would not refuse it if it were offered.
 The Taft-Stassen moves to head off Dewey kept their packers in an almost continuous round of conferences. The principals them- selves were meeting.
 Secret Conferences
 Taft and Stassen first met sec retly last night. This morning. Taft told reporters T rather ex- pect I will see him tStassen) again today. but it is still little indefinite"
 When questioned by newsmen, Taft refused to discuss what had transpired at his secret conferences tContinued on Page Six)

HIM - thought I'd drop you a
few lines concerning a friend Of
mine. He's TO years older than I,
seems to have a pretty steady head
on him and says he dearly loves me.
He started off giving me 8 or 10
dollars week but now he asks me
to be patient until he can build a
home, then he would give me what
ever I wanted I don't love him but
thought that if I could make up my
mind, I might would marry him.
Would it be wise?
Ans: No - not if you know that
you don't love him. There's 40
earthly reason for you to marry
right now. You have your own home
your children and you are doing
quite well. Were you to marry
someone that you did not love, it
would most surely bring a lot of UNI
happiness on you and your children.
CIV - I would like to go north
and live after I finish college next
spring. Would you advise me to go
there and get a secretarial job or
stay here and teach? 1 really don't
want to teach but my mother would

ever, you realize that your husband
is not too enthusiastic about moving

to consider his feelings before max

this summer and he said he loved
me. Now want to marry this man.
Should 1 save all of my love and
spare time for him?
Ans: He hasn't given you the
least bit of encouragement. 1t stands
to reason that if he were sincere
he would write or get in touch with
you in some way, rather than keep
you guessing. Spend your spare
time scouting around attracting new
friends - there's no point saving

you think about it?
Ans: Going into business for your
self definitely will not be snap -
you will punch the clock early and
late and in many instances when
have to work harder and your re-
sponsibilities will be much greater
than ever before. 1t takes a hard
headed business man to operate a
business successfully today. With
no experience - you would start
out with two strikes against you.
My problem is about my husband

seven months. He is a good husband
