Thomas E. Dewey

Strongly agree

No

Dewey, being a pro-business Republican, would likely support the traditional five-day workweek. He would likely see it as a way to maintain productivity and economic growth. Furthermore, during his time, the five-day workweek was the standard, and there was little discussion or advocacy for a shorter workweek.

Strongly disagree

Yes

Thomas E. Dewey, as a Republican candidate, was generally supportive of free-market principles and less government intervention in business. The idea of a four-day workweek would likely be seen as an unnecessary government intrusion into business operations. Furthermore, in the 1940s, the concept of a four-day workweek was not widely discussed or considered.

Very strongly disagree

Yes, and require overtime pay for work over four days per week

Dewey would likely strongly disagree with this statement. Not only does it propose a four-day workweek, which he would likely oppose, but it also suggests government regulation of overtime pay. This would be seen as an even greater intrusion into business operations, which would be contrary to his free-market principles.
