By JACK BELL

WASHINGTON, Aug. 28. = 'f' - Senator Bricker (R.-Ohio) predicted today that Gov. Thomas E. Dewey will win the Presidency in the Mo- vember election 'by a tremendous majority"
 His forecast contrasted with a more cautious one by Gov. Roy Turner of Oklahoma that President Truman will win in a campaign in which Turner said there is work to be done"
 Bricker, who was Dewey's running mate in 1914 when the late Presi- dent Roosevelt again was reelected told a reporter on a brief visit to Washington that "all the signs are different now
 Unless something mighty un- expected happens, Governor Dewey is going to win this race by a tre- mendous majority the Ohio Sen ator said.
 T think the results are pretty well set already"
 Turner told a news conference yesterday the Truman -Barkiey clubs which he heads are going to supply some of the work that will be needed to help elect MT. Truman { He said clubs have been formed in Minnesota and the District oi Columbia and are being set up in Georgia, Kentucky, Missouri, Okla homa and Michigan -sssas..-77 z x Turner disclosed that MT. Truman has tentative date for two days of campaigning in Oklahoma somt time between Sept 27 and Oct. 3 This may be part of a southern ol southwestern swing made by tht President, he said.
 Henry Wallace takes his thiro party bid to Virginia tomorrow fol meetings in Richmond and Norfolk
 Bricker said he is confident his home State of Ohio will give the Dewey Warren ticket majority oi from 250,0OO to 500,000

 HUGHES DIES
 LAST NIGHT
Retired Chief Justice, Su- preme Court, Passes
 Away

OSTERVILLE Mass, Aug. 28.- R-Charles Evans Hughes, retired Justice of the United States who narrowly missed becoming Pres ident in 1916, died last night.
 Hughes, Secretary of State in the Harding and Coolidge Cabinets and twice Governor of New York, succumbed last night only a few hours after he was reported in a critical condition from a heart ailment.
 The 86-year-old former Chief Justice-the only American ever to be appointed twice to the U. 5. Supreme Court-died at the Wian- no Club, where he had come on August 5 to convalesce from an illness that had confined him to his Washington home for several months.
 The former jurist's son, Charles Evans Hughes, Jr, New York attorney, said death was caused by congestive heart failure and uremic poisoning.
 The younger Hughes said his father had shown marked improve ment" but that he suffered "a sud- den relapse" early this week.
 Since leaving the nations high est judicial post July l, l941, be- cause of declining health, Hughes had spent most of his time living quietly. and. in < relative ohscurity in Washington.
 Born in Glen Fall, N. Y., April II. 1882 he entered Colgate at the age of IA and graduated from Brown University. After receiving his law degree from Columbia in 1884. he began his legal practice in New York.
 Elected Governor of New York in 1907, he resigned during a sec ond term to become U. s. Asso- ciate Justice in 1910. He remained on the Supreme Court bench de- Splte OllcES lAOAIl NCPoSAANoAo w make him their Presidential candi- date in 1908 and 1912.
 However, in 1916 he accepted the nomination and left the court to run against Woodrow Wilson. He was defeated in one of the clos est races in history-Wilson win ming by an electoral vote of PIT to 254 after being given Califor- nia's vote.
 Hughes actually had retired tht night before with confidence of be- ing elected, only to wake the next morning and learn of his defeat.
 At the time of his death, besides his son. were two daughters, Mrs William T. Gossett of Bloomfield Hills, Mich. and Mrs. c. A. Wad- dell of Riyerdale,. N. Y.

HOPE WORK MAY BEGIN
 15T0F YEAR
Interested Parties Make Inspeetion-First Plans
 Are Announced

Paul J. Timbal. President of the Alaska Industrial Corporation. re- | turned to Juneau late yesterday afternoon from a two-day trip to Sitka and said that all indications point to the fact that the com pany he represents will undertake to establish pulp interests in the Shka area in the very near future.
 After surveying the region for the past two days in company With Roy Johnson and Charles Semal, also officials of the Corporation, Timbal said he is completely sat- isfied with the findings and that he expects to extend a pulp bid in the region within the next two months. The area is not opened to bidding at present, but it is ex- pected that the Forest Service will open the Sitka pulp region to bid ding in the near future.
 Optimistic
 Timbal added that he is very optimistic concerning the Sitka venture, and that it is hoped to begin working on the proposed pulp site by the first of the year, if everything goes according to plans
 The size of the plant, the ap- proximate investment, and the number of men such an operation would employ are uncertain at the present, with the outcome hinging on the. next isw months Timhal said. however. that 1t is tenta- | lively planned to begin operations with 200 unit ton per day plant. High Grade Nature
 It is also uncertain whether or not the construction of hydro electric plant in the area will be required. Timbal said it was def mite that the pulp plant would te of high grade nature, and would be designed to work in con- junction with other interests of the company. Other operations of the company include the processing and manufacture of chemical pro- duce.
 Chasing it as one of the most beautiful and hospitable countries he had ever seen, Timbal said he has thoroughly enjoyed his brief stay in the Territory. and he plans to return with his fam- ily when time permits. He will re- turn to Seattle today, and then to New York, where he is repre- sentative for the Belgium-iinanced company.
 i Charles Semal is principal stockholder and technical advisor from Belgium, and Roy Johnson is President and engineer for the corporation
