The article presents information on the Grand Old Party. In Washington, before the leaders of his party, Governor Thomas E. Dewey made no bones about the split in the Republican Party. Governor Dewey's speech brought to a climax the baffle which has been going on within Republican ranks since the defeat of last November. At first glance this division might look like the usual little squabbles in a defeated political party. The situation is serious for the Republican Party and for the two-party system in this country. For the record shows that over the past twenty years the Republicans have not won a single Presidential election and have gained control of the U.S. Congress only once, in 1946.
