B8 ORRON NAVED AS 1R CHANGE {Two Speakers In Campaign Rally Urge White t House Plans. 8y the Associated Press. TRENTON, N. J.,, June 5.—A presi- dential' boom for Dwight W. Morrow, Ambassador to Mexico and candidate for the Republican senatorial nomina- gnn in New Jersey, has been launched ere. With Mr., Morrow occupying a seat on the platform at a political rally last night, Edward C. Stokes, former Gov- ernor of New Jersey, and Dr. John Grier Hibben, president of Princeton University, advanced his name as & White House possibility. “Mr. Morrow,” said Mr. Stokes, “is not only worthy to have a seat in United States Senate, Ambassador Mor- Tow is presidential timber. “I know that I am treading on deli- cate ground. At Atlantic City the other day he disavowed being a candidate. I don’t think he has anything to do with that question. No man in this country is big enough or great enough to de- cline a call to the presidency.” He cited Mr. Morrow's part in the history of the State and recalled that New Jersey had sent Woodrow Wilson to the White House. “We had a Democratic President from New Jersey,” he sald, “and now we are going to have a Republican President from New Jersey.” . Dr. Hibben, in opening his address, said: “T wish to add that if the Ambassa- dor should become President of our country—which is not a wild flight of the imagination—we are going to claim part of him for Princeton, for while he 1s not a graduate of Princeton we have done the next best thing by adopting him, for we made him a doctor of laws & few years ago.” Mr. Morrow thanked Mr. Stokes and Dr. Hibben for their complimentary statements, which, he said, left him “al- most speechless.” MRS.
