J. J. SURRIS. mer 1-4651 Dewey Is Given Pryor Support For Presidency ALBANY, July 10 (AP)-Governor Thomas E. Dewey put the executive mansion latch out for Republican of Congress bearing presidential campaign advice today as another major backer of Wendell L.

Willkie pledged his unqualified supyort. Refreshed by a weekend of relaxation at his Pawling farm in anticipation of today's heavy schedule of conferences, the Republican presidential nominee returned to Albany last night to learn of his unreserved endorsem*nt by Samuel F. Pryor of Connecticut, eastern campaign manager for Willkie in 1940. Pryor's statement, which also predicted "a comfortable majority" of Connecticut votes for Dewey and his running mate, Ohio's governor John W. Bricker, was satisfying news to Dewey leaders who have made no secret of their hopes for Willkie's personal backing.

The party's 1940 nominee has congratulated Dewey on his nomination, but has given no indication of whether he will support the governor. Another of Willkie's long-time supporters, Senator Sinclair Weeks is among a Republican group of Massachusetts members of Congress and candidates slated to conier with Dewey late today. Weeks was one of two Willkie backers named to the reorganized Republican national executive committee last "hoped" week. He Willkie said Thursday he would support Dewey but that he knew nothing of the former's plans. Heading the Massachusetts visitors will be House Minority Leader Joseph Martin and Governor Levarett Saltonstall, a candidate for the U.

S. Senate, vacancy caused by resignation Senator Henry Cabot Lodge, to enter military service. luncheon Dewey's schedule also listed: conierence with three Republican members of the Congressional delegation from Vermont, one of the two to go Republican the Democratic landslide of 1936. They are Senator Warren R. Austin, Senator George Aiken and Rep.

Charles A. Plumley. Possible discussion of foreign policy was indicated by the inclusion Mackinac Austin. He declaration heiped frame 1or postwar American participation in international efforts to maintain peace. Dewey conferred Thursday night with Senator Arthur H.

Vandenberg of another of the Mackinac statement's coauthors. Dewey slipped back into the exacting role presidential nominee after. a restful interlude at the farm, his first return there since his nomination. About 700 Pawling citizens turned out Friday to give him a warm, neighborly and non-partisan welcome, then left him to the enjoyment of his 150- year old farm on Quaker Hill. With Mrs.

Dewey and his two sons, Tommy, 11, and John, 8, the governor spent part of Saturday posing for cameramen and showing reporters around the 468-acre farm and through the 12-room, white frame farm house he purchased in 1939. Yesterday, however, was a day of complete rest for the Dewey household. after all its members joined 150 other worshipers in services at Christ Non-sectarian church, a small and picturesque edifice atop Quaker Hill.

ROBERT SHADDUCK Robert Shadduck, 59, of Wheelerville died yesterday morning at the Robert Packer hospital, MRS. ALBERT SHARP Mrs. Albert Sharp, 73, of Avoca R.D. 1 died this morning at the Nelson, Military Leaders at Odds Over Production WASHINGTON, July 10 (UP) -War Production Chief Donald M. Nelson and the nation's top military leaders were embroiled today in a bitter dispute over reconversion of industry with some possibility that the issue may have to go to President Roosevelt for a showdown.

The fight, involving Nelson's plans for an immediate start on limited reconversion, reached a new high over the weekend when the joint chiefs of staff warned that the proposed relaxation of wartime restrictions could "prolong the war." At the same time, however, chairmen of two strong congressional committees--Harry S. Truman, of the special Senate war investigating group and James M. Murray, of the Senate small business committee strongly supported Nelson's plans, although Truman was critical because they had not yet been put into effect. The program originally was to have become effective July 1 but was delayed because of Nelson's recent attack of pneumonia, from which he still is convalescing. WPB officials said the plans were in the final stages of preparation and emphasized that "no one" had ordered them discarded de-' spite the opposition of the military and of many of Nelson's top lieutenants, including WPB Vice Chairman Charles E.

Wilson. Nelson's program envisaged a gradual reconversion of civilian manufacture by plants in which war work has definitely ceased and in areas where not needed for war maroduction. He also planned removal of restrictions on the use of aluminum and magnesium to permit production of civilian goods that would not interfere with war work. Mr. Roosevelt's two highest military and civilian aides already appear committed on opposing sides of the issue.

War Mobilization Director James F. Byrnes was consulted by Nelson before the reconversion plans were announced; and Admiral, William D. Leahy, chief the President in his capacity as commander in chief of the armed forces is a member of the joint chiefs of staff and signed the letter opposing the program. "In view the major offensive operations underway on every front," Leahy's letter said, "it is essential at this time, that there be no relaxation in war production and that deficits in deliveries be made up at the earliest possible date." HERE IS JUST A SMALL PART of the cargo of bombs that one of the American B-29 Superfortresses used in its raid on Yawata, Japan's great steel center, on June 15. The bomb capacity of the new air battleship is a military secret, but from the Japanese viewpoint it is more than plenty.

(International) Era of Is Forecast by Henry Wallace EATTLE, July 10-(AP) A post-war "era of the Pacific" marked by vast international airlines and communications systems through areas now thinly populated is forecast by Vice President Henry A. Wallace. In a nationwide broadcast yesterday on his return from China and Siberian Russia, Wallace asserted "trade with Russia and China will help keep the factories of America busy in the days, that lie ahead," and said he "convinced that a main area of development after this war. will be in the new world of the North Pacific and eastern Asia." He was in Seattle only briefly to make his address, then left for Washington, D. where he said he would report to the president Tuesday.

"The new frontier extends from Minneapolis via the coast states and Alaska through Siberia and China all the way to central Asia," he said "Here are vast resources of minerals and manpower to be developed by democratic, peaceful methods--the methods not of exploitation, but on the contrary the more profitable method of creating higher living standards 1 for hundreds of millions of people." During his seven weeks travels, Wallace said he saw virtually no likelihood of postwar internecine strife in China, and said: "Personally I am convinced China and the USSR will take the necessary steps to ensure continuing peace and to promote the cultural and commercial exchanges among the nations of the Pacific to the benefit of all" Wallace said he brought the personal thanks of Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek to Rep. Warren G. Magnuson (D-Wash) and President Roosevelt for the repeal of the Chinese exclusion act. Magnuson sponsored the repeal measure which, Chiang said, "gives us face Orient." Throughout Siberia there was much evidence of the workings of the lend- program with American steel and aluminum in factories far in the interior. However much he might admire the peoples he visited, Wallace said his travels served only to strengthen his faith in the United States.

REMEMBER THE BLOCK DANCE IN ATHENS $1,215 Is Raised In Scout Drive A total of $1,215 has been realized in the Waverly Boy Scout drive to date, officials of the local chapter announced recently following a check of reports of canvassers in the village. goal of the drive was set at $1,600 but the amount raised to date is the greatest ever achieved toward furthering Boy Scout work in the village. Residents of the area are asked to call Clarence W. McCray, treasurer of the local committee, if they have contributions to make.

As a result of the campaign, 40 Waverly Boy Scouts will have a vacation at Camp Brule, official Scout camp of the General Sullivan Council. These boys have individually earned half of the money needed, and the other half was provided from the funds raised by the executive committee. Boys attending camp will have unusual opportunities to qualify for many of their merit badges and other Scout advancements. To earn money, Waverly Scouts have taken part in the various drives in the village and particularly in the scrap metal, fat collection and paper drives. Two cars of scrap baper have been shipped from Waverly due to the Scouts' work, sisted by William Peters, Clarence McCray, Clayton Salsberry, and the cooperation of Mayor Fred Gillan of Waverly, Money from the scrap paper was returned to the troops.
