HOOVER POLICIES CANPAGN ISSE Republican National Commit- tee Replies to Democratic Bombardment. BY DAVID LAWRENCE. ‘There no longer is any doubt in po- ltical circles that the Hoover admin- istration and its policles is going to | be one of the principal issues In the congressional campaign. ‘The Democrats have been bombard- Mr. Hoover for several months, but not until today did the Republican Na- tional Committee take up the challenge defensively. The committee has issued & long typewritten analysis of the Re- publican platform pledges and just what the Hoover administration has done about each one of them. Just why the strategists decided to focus_attention on what the President has done instead of on the achieve- ments of the Republican party in Con- gress is not yet clear, but it was taken to mean that no such significant out- line of the Hoover record would have been made public at this time except in connection with the forthcoming congressional campaign. Hoover Much Concerned. ‘Thus far the President has not said & word about his desires for a Repub- lean Congress, though everybody knows he is much concerned about the out- come of the election in November, be- cause whether he says anything about it or not, the politicians will examine the results and declare that the country has either voted its confidence in Mr. Hoover or has repudiated him, as the case may be. ‘While the Democrats have made Hooverism the issue and have tried very hard to make the voter feel that in bal- loting for Democratic Representatives and Senators this Fall he will be ex- pressing his opinien of the Hoover ad- ministration, it was not expected that that Republicans would counter by dis- cussing the Hoover record. All the President’s instincts are in favor of battling out every issue in the and it may well be imagined that he did not relish the idea of hav- ing the attack concentrated on his administration without having anything said in reply. In other words, the thctics of the Republican National Com- mittee reflect a belief that when the mwll examined in detail d mi t ver latform pledges the ic e o8 constan! Hoot with g\‘l:ll’ :g diverted somewhat Bl Debate on Hoover Policles. ‘The Democrats are not likely to miss the chance of & debate on Hoover poli- cles, but there are certain sections of States go Republican in elections.
