Y By RODNEY DUTCHER Chicago—Who said Hoover was un- popular? Until the Republican convention here the theory was that his popu-| larity was at its height in 1928 and had waned a lot since. But now one fact that every regular Republican who opposed his nomination four years ago was found in the Hoover camp when the 1932 convention Dated this 11th day of June. 1932. | opened—and f th Si : A. C. ISAMINGER, jpened—and some of those who once County Auditor, Burleigh Co., N. D.|Mmost bitterly attacked him are now ——_—_—_— among his eulogists. . Senator L. J. Dickinson, the key- noter himself, was one of those who inveighed against Hoover as a leader of the ill-fated Lowden movement of '28. Senator Jim Watson of Indiana, who was hurling all sorts of mean names When he himself was a can- didate, would have been here whoop- ing for Hoover had he not been so busy defending Hoover policies as party floor leader in Washington. Charlie Curtis, another ‘28 candi- date who had assurred the party that it might as well fold up and quit if it were going to nominate Hoover, was anxiously seeking a renomination for vice president. One could name many more such who contributed to the unanimity for Hoover. It seems to prove that a lot of the boys were dead wrong about him—or that there really is such a thing as practical pos, after all. * IN THE SHOP WINDOWS The aan é tet it inside show- cases of a large store in the.

These terms, passed by Judge James H. Wolfe after Ensign had entered a plea of guilty to a rob- bery, are to be checked regularly by the youth's sister, to whom been paroled. The course is HE'D WALK 30 MILES Denver—What is worse than a good, old-fashioned case of home sickness? Little Curtis Phifer, 12, remarks that there is nothing just as miserable. The lad was taken from the custody of his mother, Mrs. Nan Phifer, and placed on a farm near Boulder. Curtis didn’t think much of the farm, so he started to’ trudge 30 weary miles back to his mother’s arms. Authorities found him with his mother, and it was decided to let her keep him, must reconcile that theory with the| quarters, featured (exclusively) all jthe deplorable scandal books about Hoover and the Republicans that have been published in the last couple of jyears. ... And an automobile show- | room in the hotel, facing on Michigan | avenue, displayed large pictures of Al Smith, Speaker Jack Garner and Newton D. Baker. x x & ALL ABOUT A BUTTON Wet and dry leaders, here for the platform fight, spent a lot of their time posing for newspaper pictures. Most of them were willing to stand on their heads if requested. All except the famaus Bishop Can- non, who did his best to elude the photographers. . . . Handsome, allur- ing wet ladies were all over the place, trying to pin huge celluloid “Repeal” buttons on one’s lapel. A photog- rapher approached one of the nation- ally known elderly dry ladies, asking the privilege of taking her picture. She spotted one of those buttons on his coat. She said: “Are you a drunkard? Have you no respect for your mother? If you will take that button off and throw it away I will let you take my picture.
