POST-WAR ALLIANCE

BETWEEN UNITED STATES & BRITAIN WITH SOVIET & CHINESE PARTICIPATION. ADVOCATED BY PROMINENT REPUBLICAN. (By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright) NEW YORK, September 6. Mr Thomas Dewey, Governor of New York State, when attending a Republican Convention on Mackinac Island, proposed outright continuation of the British-American military alliance after the war, and said he hoped Russia and China could be brought into a four-way ararngement. Mr Dewey said: “We have had a de facto military alliance with Britain practically ever since the war of 1812. In the two principal cases since, when war was made on Britain, we went to her defence. I think the alliance will continue on a more formal basis after this war, and it will be to our interest. Americans have never previously had such a shock as when they realised that Germany might capture the British Fleet. You and I remember how everyone was chilled.” The “New York Times” said that Mr Dewey’s suggestion had an electrifying effect on the delegates, and added that in delivering such an obvious blow at the Republican Party’s old-time isolation, Mr Dewey was regarded as having moved definitely into the class of advanced Republican thinkers on international affairs, vieing with Mr Wendell Willkie and others.
