W.Willkie May 801 l From G.O.P. Parly Platform Seeks High Tariff And Subsidy Convention Headquarters Chicago. June 2S. — (UPl—The 19(4 plat form approved unanimously by the itepubllean national convention left three doora oi>en today for Wendell L Wlllkle, the 1940 OOP presidential nominee, to bolt the party which be joined a tew years ago Those doora were labeled "foreign policy," "tarff" and "state’s rights." It was notably in those three categories that the 1944 platform disputed the policies outlined by Wlllkle In a recent aeries of newspaper articles. Only Wlllkle knew whether he considers three defections from his views serious enough to lead hint away from the Kepnhllcan party. When he withdrew from the race for the OOP presidential nomination two month* ago after being roundly beaten in isolationist Wisconsin. he said his future political course would depend on what sort of platform the Republican adopted and who they nominated The foreign policy plank as adopted still contained such phrases a* "world state," "sovereignty” and "peace force*” which Wlllkle challenged In a press conference less than 24 hour* before It* approval. WlHkle’s newspaper ankles called "states’ rights" a "retie" rather than an issue Tbe platform stressed a need for avoiding federalized control of public employment service* and prompt return to state control of the national guard. High Tariff Wlllkle said many tariffs could be lowered through reciprocal arrangements which would benefit the consuming public. The platform declared that the domestic market Is America’s greatest market and that tariff* which protect it against foreign competition should be modified only by reciprocal bilateral trade agreements approsd by congress. Although it may cost the support of the candidate who polled 22.000.ttoo votes four years ago, the platform was calculated to prove partlcuily attractive to the agricultural midwest where the Republican party has made its greatest recent gains. Th.- farm plank condemned sub•ldles as a substitute for a "fair" market price hut called for support prices and commodity loan* if necessary to assure a farm income •-quitable with that of labor, bus Ines* and industry. The theory of crop control was declared acceptable as a last resort If farm surpluses idle up despite effort* to deveiope foreign market*, new use* and more efficient domnstfc distribution. Two segment* of organised labor split on their reaction to the tabor plank K. €. Adami, spokesman for along mountain ridges, American officer* surveyed enormous quantities of captured war material — everything from locomotive* to batl>y buggiio. There were Japanese guns and plenty of ammunition, considerable food and clothing. Even more Important was the fact that the captured portion of .Matpan had plenty of fairly good road*. None of these things, however, counted for much when compared to the real prize of the battle ih<- Island of flalpan Itoelf key of the ‘Marianas. |WII f AN ACCIDENT ISN'T FUNNY it’s expensive whether it happens at home or anywhere else.
