Dewey Seeks Sfassen's Help By United Press Gov. Thomas E. Dewey of New York settled down today to do some "front porch'' campaigning on his recent rival, Harold E. Stassen. The two men got together on the front porch of Dewey's Pawling, N.

Y. farmhouse to tafk over campaign strategy. The GOP standard bearer made no secret of the fact that he is eager to have Stasscn taking the stump for him, especially in the midwest. Though he trailed Dewey and Sen. Robert A.

Taft in the" GOP convention balloting, Stassen has a wide following-, particularly among young Republican liberals. There has been considerable speculation that he may turn up in the Dewey cabinet if the New Yorker wins in November. Some political observers think he's a good bet for attorney general. Stassen made a name for himself as a county attorney in Minnesota before being elected governor of the state in 193S. Hits Session Call The Stassen-Dcwcy huddle was the second informal get-together which the New York governor has had with- party chieftains.

Last week he sat down with Sen. Taft to discuss party policies. And later this month, he will meet with Senate President Arthur H. Van- dcnberg, House Speaker Joseph Martin, and Majority Leader Charles A. Halleck.

Meanwhile. Dewey's campaign manager. Herbert Brownell. opened headquarters in Washington and immediately rapped President Truman for calling congress back in a summer session. He indicated that despite Mr.

Truman challenge, the Republicans feel no obligation to make good on their 1948 platform at the session which opens Monday. "The Republican platform." said Brownell. "calls for a program of egislation by a Republican congress under the leadership of a Republican president. Obviously this cannot be done at a rump session called at a political convention for political purposes in the heart of a lolitical campaign." 'repare Wallace Platform.

Strom Thurmond of South Carolina, the Dixic- crat candidate for president, resigned from the Democratic national executive committee and predicted that the once-solid south, will ignore President Truman and support the Dixicrat ticket. He said the Dixiecrats will carry their campaign into many states and "when November has come and gone, the leaders of the present Democratic party will be split 48 ways.
