Pepper Ridicules Dewey in biting Senate speech
Senator Pepper assailed Republican presidential contenders in a sharp Senate speech. He labeled Dewey coy and handsomely groomed, Bricker a modern Harding, and Willkie unacceptable to the party’s old guard for foreign policy courage. Pepper contrasted them with Lodge’s 1920 views and warned of GOP appeals to prejudice. He spoke amid a lone Republican presence, White of Maine, and did not indicate support for Willkie.
