President Roosevelt may ride a campaign train this fall if nominated, with new government travel rules allowing exclusive use for the President and armed services. Dewey would also get one if campaigning by rail occurs. An ODT spokesman said travel restrictions target government trains and cars, with general travel limited to official war work and approved duties.
