Take Dewey's "No"
CLEVELAND (JPS)—Despite
an unqualified repudiation by
Gov. Thomas E. Dewey of New
York, leading contender for the
GOP Presidential nomination;
Gerald L, K. Smith was em-
powered by the native fascist
America First Party, of which
he is founder and executive di-
rector, to give the governor one
more chance to toe the line of
Smith's "nationalist" program.
Stating that Dewey "slopped
over too much into thg- inter-
national side," he expressed the
hope that the governor will "go
back to the faith of his dear
Christian mother who attends
my meetings at Owosso."

membership peak in its history. Mrs. Shulman announced the
launching of the 1944-1945 drive for 200,000 members.
