EE, OWENS IN * CONGRESS RACE

Seeks G. 0. P. Nomination For Seat Now Held by Rep. Ludlow.

Basing his campaign platform upon the “need for a return to free enterprise,” Ernest E. Owens, Indianapolis attorney, today announced his candidacy for the G. O. P. nomination to Congress from the Twelfth District. _ Rep. Louis Ludlow, a Democrat, now represents the district. “This is the time for patriotic men and women to determine whether or not our manner of life as exemplified by a system of free enterprise shall be preserved,” Mr. Owens’ announcement stated. “I am unaltérably opposed to the philosophy of the New Deal because it seeks to curtail free enterprise. It does this by putting into action its false doctrine of ‘controlled scarcity’ This nation was not built upon such a theory. The New Deal has solved no problem. It has been a crazy-quilt of political opportunism.” Mr. Owens said the basic issue of this campaign is peace. “We shall not again tread the path of 1917. The real question in the present European war is who shall dominate Europe. That question is none of our concern. We attempted to settle that question over 20 years ago and got nothing out of the conflict but the ill will of everyone. - “There is neither reason nor excuse for our entry into the present European war.”

CANDIDACY OF

‘New England Turns \ Cool; Bosses Shy From Him and Public Is Questioning.

By LUDWELL DENNY Times Special Writer

WASHINGTON, Jan. 30. -- Tom Dewey’s candidacy is bogging down. The young crusader’s glamour is not winning delegates. Hence his managers’ decision to put him in the Illinois primaries to buck the un-instructed-delegation strategy of his enemies. His swing around the New Eng-

land circuit was discouragin g. They came, they listened, they gave him a polite hand — but no delegates. After all, he wants more than an opportunity to use his admirable voice; that is why he gave up a career as a singer and turned to politics. But he is no farther along than a month ago in ‘his campaign for the Republican nomination for President. That is poison for an out-in-front candidate. Either a leader’s strength begins to grow rapidly in the late winter or early spring before the convention, or the party bosses in the states and districts start + quietly looking elsewhere. The problem of the Dewey managers is to prove his vote-getting powers somewhere, anywhere, before the reaction sets in—if, indeed, it has not already begun.

New York Also a Worry With New England holding out on

Mr. Denny

ponents, and with - Pennsylvania hard for him to crack, he must get a goodly number of Midwestern and Western delegates or be crowded out, as so often happens to early leaders come convention time. Not the least of his worries is his own bailiwick of New York. Some of the other candidates may smile} with the columnists at the Presidential ambitions of Frank E. Gannett. But to Mr. Dewey it is not funny to be deprived of a solid New York delegation. More important than the upstate New York delegates he is losing to Mr. Gannett is the loss of Jimmy Wadsworth. Rep. Wadsworth, an ex-Senator and an old guard general in many national conventions, is as crafty as they come. Mr. Wadsworth of New York is out to stop Mr. Dewey of New York.

Bosses—Pass Up—Support

There are only three ways in which a candidate can get the nomination. He must have the support of the bosses, or of the moneybags behind the bosses, or so much popular support that bosses and moneybags find it expedient to climb aboard. As indicated by the decision of so many state organizations to plug for uninstructed delegates, which they can' trade in the convention back-room, Mr. Dewey has not been able to win over many of the bosses. He is doing a little better with the moneybags, but here again he is stopped in important places. Some of the big boys in New York are holding out. And Mr. Pew of Pennsylvania, the biggest of the lot, is wavering between Senator Taft

So Mr. Dewey has to get public support, a great deal of it and quickly. The war unquestionably has slowed down Mr. Dewey, for the same reason that it has boomed Roosevelt popularity and revived third-term talk. His very youth, which was his chief asset six months ago, may defeat him. Many a voter is saying: “In these troubled times, we need an older head.” That may be illogical; youth suffers most frem depressions and wars, and older heads got us into this mess. 4

G.O.P. Sees 40 Kevaote

In Martin's 12-Point Talk

_TOPEKA, Kas, Jan. 30 (U. P). —Republicans saw today in a speech of their Congressional floor leader the keynote of their 1940 Presidential campaign. Rep. Joseph W. Martin of Massachusetts, Republican House leader, told a Kansas Day banquet and a nation-wide radio audience that the G. O. P. must maintain neutrality, eliminate unnecessary public spending and revise the Federal tax structure. f The banquet, celebrating the 79th anniversary of Kansas’ admission to the union, was attended by National Committee Chairman John D. M. Hamilton and the 1936 Presidential candidate, Alf M. Landon. ; Also present were representatives of the clubs boosting Thomas E. Dewey of New York and Senator Arthur H. Vandenberg of Michigan for the Republican Presidential nomination. Both hope to swing Kansas’ national convention dele-

Mr. Martin, a “darkhorse” possibility for the nomination, said the Republican program in event of victory in November should follow the recovery platform suggested by minority House members last spring. He restated its points which included: # 1—Keep this country out of war: (2) Move immediately to curb “unnecessary, wasteful and reckless spending”; (3) Repeal all “repressive or harassing” taxes restraining business; (4) Revise the remainder of the Federal tax structure to eliminate or modify provisions retarding business recovery; 5—Repeal the President’s discretionary monetary authority; (6) Amend the National Labor Relations Act to clarify the mutual obligations of worker and employer; and the duties of both toward the public: (7 Define specifically the area of governmental competition with private enterprise; (8) Restore “American markets to the American farmer and wage earner and develop new markets for agricultural products”; (9) Adopt immediate legislation to rehabilitate the railroads; (10) Create a special committee of Con-

the reciprocal trade policy on industry and agriculture; (11) Clarify Federal rules and regulations “so industry and business may know what to expect”; (12) “Reject all experimental legislation not clearly helpful in promoting recovery, or which would subject agriculture, labor or industry to compulsory decrees of a Federal bureaucracy.”

TAFT, BRICKER ASSAILF. D. R

Ohio Governor Charges ‘Personal Malice’ in Veto of Old-Age Pension Funds.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 30 (U. P.). —Ohio’s first and second favorite sons for the Republican Presidential nomination are joined today in firm preconvention partnership after sharing a platform here in blisters ing attack on the Roosevelt Administration. Governor John W. Bricker, the

dark horse No. 2, was introduced to the Ohio Society here last night by Senator Robert A. Taft, No. 1, to charge that the Administration, through the Social Security Board, had played politics with old-age pension funds. : Charging “partisan malice” to President Roosevelt for last week’s veto of a deficiency appropriation for Ohio old-age pensions, Mr. Bricker assailed “the bureaucratic dictators in Washington.” He contended that the Roosevelt Administration overlooked social security irregularities by the Democratic Administration of Governor Martin L. Davey in 1936 because “there was a national and state election on in Ohio and there was a single ballot or both state and national candiates.”

Hints McNutt Advice Rejected

Mr. Bricker managed to convey this thought--without exactly uttering it that—President Roosevelt had rejected the advice of Federal Security Administrator Paul V. McNutt last week in vetoing the bill which would have given Ohio the $1,300,000 that was withhelde in October, 1938, on complaint against administration of social security in the state. “The Federal contributions were withheld as a political punishment and without any regard for the needy old people of Ohio,” Mr. Bricker said. “Bureaucracy had to be served and the greed for power to be satisfied.

“Then came the act of Congress,

Ohio her money. I want to express the thanks of the people of Ohio to her Congressmen for their support. I also want to thank Governor McNutt, who at the Chicago American Legion convention assured me of his interest in Ohio’s claim, and I am confident he did all in his power to help.” Two Exchange Compliments Mr. Bricker and Mr. Taft, who is president of the Ohio Society, exchanged compliments in their remarks and it is understood that practically everything has been settled between them except the personnel of the Taft delegation to the

convention and -the potential, pay-

off question—when or whether during balloting the Bricker supporters will be able to obtain a run for their man. That could come only after stalemate had fairly conclusively established that Mr. Taft was 0 of it. Senator Arthur H. Vandenberg (R. Mich.), perhaps the man to beat this year, turned up at yesterday's party at the Taft home for Mr. Bricker and a scattering of other Republicans turned out with Ohioans to look the Governor over. Mr. Bricker made no Presidential Die here, asserting he was a “last ditch” Taft supporter. But like New York District Attorney Thomas E.’ Dewey, who has been campaigning New England, Mr. Bricker called attention to us economy ad-
