New Hampshire Test For Dewey, Stassen » _______ Eight Delegates To National Convention Manchester. N. H.. March 9y- ! (CP)-New Hampshire opened the season on presidential candidates today with a preferential primary hailed as a test of strength between Gov. Thomas E. Dewey of New York and former Gov. Harold E. ‘Stassen. At stake were the eight delegates to the Republican national | convention. A record number of voters —per- : haps as many as 60,000 —was expected to be lured to the polls by the combination of the widely publicized Dewey-Stassen duel. The weather was cloudy and cold. For Democrats, only a state party quarrel was to be settled. Though two opposing slates of candidates were entered in the contest for New Hampshire's 16 seats in the Democratic national convention, al) members of both tickets were pledged to President Truman. The Republican primary was narrowed to a test between Dewey and Stassen. But it might also throw a sidelight on the voting popularity of Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower and Sen. Arthur H. Vandenberg. R.. Mich. Two candidates still were pledged to Eisenhower, despite the general's renunciation of political consideration. and another proclaimed himself favorable to Vandenberg.

WE SAID IT IN 1920... WE SAY IT AGAIN TODAY THRIFT IS NEEDED TO CURB INFLATION Note below what General Electric was telling its employees after World War I. See how this compares with what we've been saying recently. The passages quoted are from messages of Terry and Tremaine, then managers of the G.E. Lamp Department, to their employees in September 1920.

Because history is repeating itself again. Because the right answers then are the right answers now. The cure to inflation in 1920 was "more production, greater thrift." Today we are saying Produce more, buy carefully, put the difference away in savings." But, whatever the words, the basic principles are the same!
