NATiUNAL REPRESENTATIVES — Alasks Newspuwpers. 1411 murth Avenue Blde, Seattle, Vesi\ Hhbbon R ST BRI ELECTION RESULTS KNOWN As far as the First Division 4s concerned, the election results of the General Election of October 12| are now known. The suceessful candidates have now until January Business Mauager | f»\m which he will receive, or gther thousands added‘ s to salaries of other top union officials. ! The legislation sailed smoothly through the con- | vention agenda-—as did most Lewis-inspired reso- lutions. Dewey, a Liberal (Cincinnati Enquirer) | When President Truman accuses Governor Dewey of promising to wreck compvletely the accomplishments | of the Roosevelt administration he is far from the truth. Mr. Dewey has shown, by word and deed, that | he recognizes certain concepts of the former adminis- tration as valuable. He proposes alterations and im- provements. But he does not propose to junk ideas simply because they were advanced by a predecessor | /who ran under another party banner. We have had few administrations in the history | of American government which were entirely bad. | From each presidential term certain valuable contri- | butions have come. By that method we have built our laws and our theories. Our-best executives have sifted, as well as they could, the good from the bad; {have built more solidly by using sound and seasoned |timbers. Mr. Dewey promises continued price controls. He | is—and as Governor has been—favorable to advanced |social legisiation. He favors the conservation of soils jand other natural resources, and will continue the | |zovernment’s efforts to protect and rebuild them. | i The GOP candidate definitely is committed in opposition to the erratic methods which marked much of the New Deal. He advocates individual enter- |prise; will fight the centralization of power in Wash- ington; will encourage rather than discourage busi- Iness. But to indicate that he will wipe out all the |gaina that have come¢ dyring the last 16 years is pure political buncombe. Mr. Dewey, on several occasions, |has proved that he is, in its best meaning, a true ' “liberal.” | . Flexible Schedule t (Cincinnati Enquirer) | Harold E.

The Washington 7 Merry-Go-Round By DREW PEARSON Contirued from Page One) really big money is coming labor. And it, in turn, to get around the Taft-Hartley Act, is spending the money through its own separtely organized commit- tees. Also significant is the fact that the “ biggest GOP contributors—the duPonts of Delaware, the Pews of Pennsylvania, and rthe New York financial set are pouring their money not into Dewey's campaign, but into the Senatorial races. They regard Dewey as good as elected. SPLITTING CONTRIBUTIONS Careful scrutiny of the big money gifts is illuminating. Take one family nlone—the The Republican Senatorial Cam- paign Committee is headed by a duPent henchman, ex-Senator John Townsend of Delaware. His job is to win GOP Senate elections in Tennessee, Oklahdma, New Mex- 1co, Minnesota, Wyoming and Mon- tana. To help him, the duPont fam- ily poured in the following amounts of money during June, July and August: Lammott duPont, $2,000; Irenee duPont, Jr.,” $2,000; Irenee duPont, Sr. $2,000; I. Sophie du- Pont May $2,000; Octavia M. duPone Bredin, $1,000; Pont $2,000; Lucile duPont Flint, §2,000; R. R. R. Carpenter (a du- Pcat in-law) $2,000; Pierre S. du- Pont 3rd, $2,000. Under the Hatch Act no one man ran contribute more than $5,000. Howeveyg, by splitting contributions between members of a family or between different committees of the same political party, the Hatch Act is held not to be violated For instance, a few days before Lammott duPont gave $2,000 to the GOP S rial Committee on June 18, he gave $2,000 to the GOP National Committee. That was on June 9. ‘Also on June 11, he gave $1,000 to the ,Republican Congres- sional Committee. Also while Irenee duPont, Jr., and his father and 1. Sophie du- Pont May were- giving $2,000 e: to the GOP Senatorial Committee on July 20, they also gave $2,000 ecach ¢o " the Republican National Committee on July 9. Again, on July 14, the same three duPonts gave $1,000 to the GOP Congress- ional Committel. And on July 30, Octavia duPont Bredin, Mariana duPont Silliman duPonts. | Marjana M. du-| and Lucille duPont Flint gave $1,000 to the GOP Congress- ional Committee, while on Aug. 2, Pierre S. duPont 3rd gave $1,000] the same Committee. Again, lon Aug. 18, Pierre 3rd gave $2,000 | to the GOP National Committee. | It's these gifts to the ‘side” { committees which really tell the to | comes from. | Note——Three significant contri- butions appearing on the GOP Na- tional Committee list are for $1,000 |each from Albert B. Wells, George B. Wells and Mrs. George Wells of Southbridge, Mass. The Wells family own the American Optical Company of Southbridge which was | prosecuted under the anti-trust| laws by the Justice Department under a Democratic Administration. Under earlier Republican rule, the Justice Department didn't get too nasty with anti-trust suits. PAT HURLEY CAMPAIGNS When Pat Hurley, ex-Ambassador” to China, travels through New Mexico campaigning for the Sen- ate, he really travels in style. The _ other day Pa Howell, owner of the Scuthern Pacific Hotel in Carri- z0z0, New Mexico, was a little surprised to receive a wire from Hurley reserving 10 rooms for three ! days. The wire stated that he and Mrs. Hurley would need four rooms; their secretaries, chauifeurs and campaign manager six more. The telegram asked for telegraphic con- firmation. Pa Howell does not run a big hotel and he wondered why Pat Hurley would want to bring such a big retinue to a town of only~ 500 people. But he arranged to oust a couple of traveling salesmen, even though they were regular guests, and wired Hurley that the ten rocms would be ready. However, when the Hurley poli- tical caravan arrived in Carrizozo, the ex-Ambassador did not stay at the Southern Pacific hotel. His party stayed at Petty's Court on the edge of town Pa Howell was a bit surprised at this and phoned Hurley. “I've held these rooms for you,” he told the would-be Senator. “In fact, I've kicked out some people to have them ready.” “You are entirely mistaken,” boomed Hurley. “At no time did | I ever ask you to reserve any rooms for me.” That ended that—except for one thing. When Hurley held his big campaign rally in Carrizozo, and most of the town’s 500 people gath- ienrd to hear him, Pa Howcll got jup and addressed the crowd. His speech was brief and to the point. | ' nach“ He merely read Hurley's telegram to him reserving the hotel rooms, his reply to Hurley, and a second Hurley telegram clinching the res- ervation. “If a man can’'t keep his own hotel reservaitions straight,” Pa Howell told the crowd of New Mexicans, “I don’t see how he can irom | story of where the campaign money geep straight the problems of New Mexico in the Senate.” IN CALIFORNIA Some Congressmen go to ex- treme lengths to dodge the real truth, but eventually the facts get out. Such is now the case with Congressman Bud Gearhart, Re- publican of California. Last May quite a controversy raged around Congressman Gear- hart when it was reported that this argumentative gentleman from California had introduced a secret | proposal favoring companies prose- cuted under the anti-trust laws. At a secret meeting of the House Ways and Means Committee, Gear- hart proposed that companies or- dered by the cqurt to sell their ossword Puzzle wheross 30.
