Dewey adviser to meet Hull
Albany, New York (UP) –
Governor Thomas E. Dewey, Republican presidential nominee, named John Foster Dulles today to represent him at a conference with Secretary of State Cordell Hull on post-war international plans.
In a telegram to Mr. Hull, the Governor said he was “happy to extend my fullest cooperation to the end that the result should be wholly bipartisan and should have the united support of the American people.” Mr. Dulles is Mr. Dewey’s foreign policy adviser.
Mr. Dewey added:
Mr. Dulles, who is well known to you and to President Roosevelt, has given a lifetime to study and constructive action in the field of foreign affairs. I consider him one of the very ablest of American authorities on international relations. He is fully acquainted with my views and has my complete personal confidence which I am happy to say is shared by a number of members of the United States Senate of varying political views.
