Albany, New York (UP) –
Governor Thomas E. Dewey will throw his campaign for the Presidency into high gear early next month with major political speeches at Philadelphia and Louisville, Kentucky.
While the speeches were the first announced for the campaign, there were indications that Mr. Dewey may deliver his first major speech around Labor Day. He will speak at Philadelphia Sept. 7 and then go to Louisville to address the National Federation of Republican Women’s Clubs the next night.
The Philadelphia speech will be delivered to a Republican rally in Convention Hall under the sponsorship of the State Committee.
