Republicans Warned By Governor Gales Must End Stand As 'Mere Opposition' Indtanapo.i*, Sept. 11 — (UP) — The Republican party had a blunt warning from Indiana Gov. Ralph F. Gates today that it must adopt , a “constructive" program if it expected to survive. Gates told a Northern Indiana OOP rally last night at Lake .Manitou that his party nationally had been "too long merely ‘the king's loyal opposition,’ without having a constructive program which would lead to the betterment of; America." He sounded the keynote for the Hoosier Republican campaign in 1946 by critizing his own party and warning national GOP leaders that constructive policies for supporting free enterprise must be formed I soon if the party was to “continue as a national force in the affairs of our nation.” Political observers interpreted the speech as an indication that Indiana Republicans would cast an eye to their own national policy weakness when campaign time (•oils around. Gates took time to assail the Democrats, however. He charged that the opposition's doctrines were j a threat to free enterprise.

Gates said the Republicans had been content "too long” to “register an adverse vote in congress. “No party can long exist which does not have a constructive program. No party can exist as the mere opposition of the party in power,” he said. “I look forward to the day when, nationally, the Republican party adopts in forthright fashion, pollc- - les which will be progressive and ’ which will be constructive, designi ed, primarily to preserve a free enterprise system in America. "We are truly at the political I crossroads. Decision must come ■ soon, if our party is to continue as a national force in the affairs of our nation." The Indiana Governor's address featured the first of a series of three rallies of party leaders. Oth- | er meetings for central and southI ern districts follow late this month. Other speakers last night were state GOP chairman William E. Jenner; state labor commissioner Charles W. Kern; U. S. Sen. Raymond E. Willis, R.. Angola. It was announced that U. S. Sen. Homer E. Ferguson, R., Mich., would, be chief speaker at the annual outing of the Indiana Republican editorial association at French Lick, Sept. 29. Ferguson has taken a lead in demanding a congressional investigation of the Pearl Harbor disaster. o — ' Chilean Nitrate A ton of Chilean nitrate contains < 320 pounds of nitrogen.

Wainwright Tired By Long Reception Nation's Highest Award Presented

Washington, Sept. 11 —(UP) — Gen. Jonathan M. Wainwright, who endured 39 months of Japanese captivity, was resting up to day from a new ordeal —too much acclaim from a grateful nation. America's newest idol, the man whose gallant defense of Bataan and Corregidor gave his country time to plan its comeback, expects to spend today and tomorrow resting and having an abscessed tooth treated before flying to New York for the ovation he will receive there Thursday. Walking with a cane, Wainwright was visibly fatigued after the four-hour public reception accorded him yesterday by hundreds of thousands of Washingtonians. The left side of his face appeared to be badly swollen. Immediately after the Pentagon press conference which wound up yesterday’s ceremonies he and Mrs. Wainwright left for their

Shoreham hotel suite. It was learned that earlier in the day secretary of war Henry L. Stimson served cocktails to Wainwright and his party in a private reception in Stimsjbni’s office. This type of hospitality, which took place soon after Wainwright’s plane arrived, was a rare departure from Stimson's usual official receptions. All the top war department officials, civilian and military, were on hand in Stimson’s office to greet the returning hero of Bataan and Corregidor. Following his appearance at the war department Wainwright received the keys to the city at a gigantic public rally on the Washington monument grounds, appeared before both houses of congress separately and then went to the White House where President Truman bestowed on him the country's highest military award, the medal of honor. In brief speeches during tht day he urged the nation to maintain its preparedness to prevent successful attacks in the future, declared there must be no easy peace for Japan and said he hoped the tulj story of Japanese treatment of war prisoners "may be revealed in all its ghastly detail.” Wainwright's press conference was extremely short and no questions were asked. He said simply that the Japanese “heaped indignities” upon him and his men but refused to say more on the sub ject.
