GOP BIGWIGS MAY PICK DEWEY Latest secret strategy of conser- vative Republican bigwigs is to get together sometime in April, decide who the GOP candidate should be and organize a careful drive to nominate him on the first ballot at the National Cenvention. Those who would sit in on this carefully conceived plan include Herbert Hoover, Senator Bob Taft, and Colonel “Bertie” McCormick of the Chicago Tribune. The idea behind it is that, if there is a deadlock at. the conven- tion, it will give a black eye to the party and get the GOP Presidential campaign off to a bad start. They want to capitaiize on the fact that Roosevelt is in continual hot water with his own party and that the country is sick of political bicker- ing.

Then he might have some chance for a Cabinet job.” ‘I can't advise Wendell to do that,” replied Crum. “In fact, the are certain Republican candidates that T myself wouldn’t care to sup- port, and I am quite sure that Wendell would not care to serve in the Cabinet of any of those can- didates.” “Well, it would strengthen him with the party if he would come out and say he would support who- is nominated,” Hamilton in- sisted. “But I thought you said he was through,” remarked Crum “He is as far as the nomination is concerned, but I don't think * Bricker or Dewey could win without his support in the Hamilton admitted “Then he’s a long way from be- ing through,” concluded Crum.
