BOISE, Idaho, June 19.—Idaho Re- publican leaders greeted with varied reaction today Senator William E. Borah's announced willingness—with reservation—to seek a sixth term. ‘The veteran Idaho statesman, who withdrew his candidacy for the Re- publican presidential nomination, in- formed Idaho party officials by letters he reserved the right if nominated, to “exercise full freedom of views and of discussion” on national issues and candidates. He reiterated stern opposition to any move toward “return to the gold standard.” To which Ralph E. Whitten of Bolse, an avowed candidate for Borah's seat, replied: “Borah's letter amounts to partial repudiation of the national party platform.” But State Chairman R. P. Parry of Twin Falls wrote Borah: “I see no reason why you should be concerned over any variance between the money question. Your own views | are generally known and widely re- spected here in Idaho.” Parry’s letter was in reply to one written by Borah, in which the Sen- ator expressed a willingness to step | down from the seat he has occupied 30 years and permit party leaders to | nominate & candidate of their own choice in view of Borah's stand “on the Republican monetary plank.” L —Star Staff Photo. your views and those of others on | - PROBERS OF CULT TOEXHUME BODY Round-up of Suspects in Black Order Terrorism Continues.
