It is understood that Mr Roosevelt studied suggestion's for such a Bill, while in the Pacific. Some believe Mr Roosevelt may be planning the step as a bold political move, but others feel that Mr Dewey would also.endorse such legislation. Popular opinion polls indicate a large majority of Americans as in favour of the step.
