Seldom in private, .so cial or business contacts, either, and then only pari way. ll uouUI run counter to his char acter, which traces hack to his boyhood in Owosso, Mich., anrj he insist-, on not doing anything that doesn't come naturally. 1'iess photographers can cite main instances ol IJeuey s relusal to o e lor pictures in roles he oiilil mil customarily portray. I'm example a photographer at j county lair unfed 1 lie governor to remove his coat, roll up his -leeyes and try to ring the bell atop a -lab-like pole with a mal lei Deuey relused, explaining he did not indulge in such u pastime. Yet al a lair in Sprinelield, M,i"i , last year he offered no ob ject line when a photographer -.napped him feeling a cow Dewey owns a big dairy farm at I'awling. Dutchess County, and examining a cow is not out of character with him.

At news conferences, however, he is occas ionally sarcastic, especially if he thinks the questions are of the sniping type. In Flint, Mich., near Ihe end o. a Western lour last year in search of support for his candidacy for the Hepuhlican nomination, he let fly . A reporter asked Dewey wheth er he had any comment on Senator Hubert A. Tuft's statement that Republican leaders should speak ovit on domestic and foreign is sues. "1 spoke out in 1944 and I was the only one who did." he snapped in appai'cnl reference to Tuft's rel ative silence during that cam-; paign. Dre Is No Cheaper Way To Advertise Effectively! lone 700 For An Ad-Han le Ivlountasneer ice-a-Week By MoreThan 13,500 People I'eoplc just don't slap Dewey on Ihe back, no matter how well they know him He isn't the type. Nor does the governor do any back slapping on his own account. Nei ther does he kiss babies. To woo voters, he refers instead to the accomplishments of his ad ministration, using superlatives. To understand Dewey's charac ter you must go back to his Owos so days. His father, George, long dead, was postmaster and editor of a weekly. George's father helped found the Republican party. Gov. Dewey's mother. Annie, still liv ing an active life in Owosso, is partly of Irish extraction. Annie Dewey is of the old school that believed in bringing up chil dren in the tradition of no non sense, hard work, ambition to get ahead, and adherence to Christian principles. In Owosso, the people who knew him as an argumentative boy and young man still call him "Tom". But few persons in New York or elsewhere in the country refer to him in his presence by this abbre viation. Most people call him Governor including his intensely loyal staff. Dewey is irritated easily and be Dewey has been trying for sev eral years to develop a more win ning public personality. His asso ciates believe he is succeeding He smiles and waves frequent ly, extends cordial handshakes on i reception lines, poses patiently for amateur photographers, chats with railroad men, hotel help and other ordinary citizens concerning their personal problems. He has a flair for showmanship.' At Saratoga Springs in 1!)46 he waited in an automobile outside the convention hall until it was time to go on the radio with a speech accepting renominaton. He , then entered th hall to the accom paniment of rtnging cheers, ap plause and band music, all of which went over the air waves. Although most of his addresses are prepared and ne toitows ine texts rather closely. Dewey takes! a stenotypist with him on speech making trips. Dewey's caution sometimes en genders animosities. When he took office as governor in 1943, he began the practice i which he still I follows") of having the state police investigate men under considera tion for appointment to state positions. Republican county leaders, who had recommended many of the men Investigated, howled their heads off privately. This story, doubtless false, is l ate, has touched he has appointed! told around the state capitol: A Republican legislator asked Dewey to appoint him head of a depart ment. In an Interview, Dewey told the applicant that investigation had turned up evidence that he drank and gambled and for those reasons could not join the "team."
