DISTRICT FUND BILL | gether | had mailed his filing papers to Charles- ton was made last night by his secre- !tary. who said the Senator had been |urged to make the race by the entire West Virginia delegation in Congress end by “other prominent persons.” Thus the former Assistant Attorney General places his name alongside Curtis of Kansas. Watson of Indiana, Norris of Nebraska, Reed of Missouri, Walsh of Montana and George of Georgia, the latter three Democrats, in the senatorial lists for the nomination. Had he lived, Willis, Republican, Ohio, would have made the eighth to enter the presidential contest from the Senate. Entry Is Surprise. Time for filing in West Virginia for next month's primary closes April 20. In filing there delegates must declare if they will or will not be bound by the primary vote in the convention. There had been no previous indica- |tion that Goff would become a candi- date, and his entry as West Virginia's “favorite son” immediately gave ri to speculation as to whether Herbert Hoover, who yesterday picked up seven more delegates to complete his 29 in the Kentucky convention to bring him neck-and-neck with Frank O. Lowden llil the delegate race, would go in there also. While Hoover supporters have in- dicated that he would wait until the Ohlo primary, April 24, is over before deciding whether to enter West Vir- glnl-. political observers belleve he will orego the latter oportunity because of his reluctance to contest “favorite son” votes. It is true he entered Ohio against Willis and Indiana against Watson, but only, it is held, in the belief that he stood no chance of gettinz the second choice delegates in the early convention balloting.
