Stimson silent on Presidency
Washington (UP) –
Secretary of War Henry L. Stimson today declined to take a stand in the presidential contest on the grounds the Army should be “absolutely free from any suspicion” of political influence.
Mr. Stimson, a Republican, told his press conference he saw no reason to change his policy of refraining from disclosing how he would vote.
