Charles Evans Hughes, who won York for the republicans as a iberal and a reformer, will be 68 years old before the republican na- ional convention is held. That is little above the usual age for a pres dential candidate. Furthermore, fact that he has been defeated terests desirous of putting somebody | on0e would be against him, despite in the White House who, like its present occupant, is safe, sound, and | not given to experimentation. The visit of Dwight L.

He was further recommended as a_man whose nomination would be well re- ceived by powerful business inter- ests. 1t is a curious thing how the chief business man of the administration, Secretary of Commerce Herbert Hoover, has not gained the whole- hearted support of the biggest busi- ness interests and the bankers. | Hoover is held in the highest re; | by the upper middle class business | interests, the business men who just { mis. being potentates of finance and H | neces- | rd commerce. It is possible that these tremendously big business concerns | fear that he would enforce his own | ideas rather than theirs. It is also | possible that they feel that he has, | to their disddvantage, extended to | the smaller business interests re- | | | sources formerly available only to the few large business and financial houses of the country. In other words, Hoover may be too full of ideas, and too democratic in the ex- tension of business cooperation and | marketing information to less dom- | inating influences, through his tr mendous extension of the serv of the department of commerce ' Vice-President Charles G. Dawes | also fails to get the support of the big business interests, because he is uncomfortably liable to rather er- | ratic action and utterances at times. Furthermore, he would not be likely to bring about the international co- operation which Hughes with his diplomatic ~background, achieve, an international cooper; tion which the bankers of the e believe necessary to the full d velopment of the opportunities of | the United States for economic | dominance.

NOISY WELCOME FOR CHAMBERLIN Air Hero Commends Former Associate, Levine Omaha, Aug. 24 UP—All whistles and curfews in the city shrieked their blasts Tuesday as Clarence Chamberlin, transatlantic pilot, flew over Omaha and landed at the mu- nicipal air fleld to be welcomed by city officials. This was his first trip west since he made his famous New York to Germany hop. Chamberlin came here by train this morning from Shenandoah, Iowa. He went to Fort Crook fleld, south of the city, and flew in an army plane to the north side where the airport is lo- cated. g Chamber of commerce luncheons, parades and speeches occupled the 25-year-old flyer throughout the day. “It's easy to learn to fly,” he told boys at the Masonic home, “but it s diMeult to land a plane, rightside up.” Chamberlin, who carried the first Ppassenger, Charles Levine, in an air- plane across the Atlantic ocean, threw several sidelights on the char- acter of the passenger who financed the flight and who now is in con- troversy with Maurice Drouhin, French aviator, concerning a return flight from Paris to New York. Mrs. Levine, Chamberlin declared, knew beforehand that her husband was t0 g0 as a passenger on the flight, as 414 Mrs. Chamberlin. “Levine had plenty, of nerve,” the fiyer related. “As a matter of fact—and this has not keen told—he was much more worrled about a large roll of bills which he had in his pocket than about himself. “Before the take-off he had brought with him a large amount of money in bills, which was to have been used to take care of his pay- roll. We were quite a distance out before he remembered that he had forgotten to leave the money behind When he thought of it he shouted it consternation, declaring that he cer- tainly hated to go down into Davy Jones’ locker with all that money on him.” Major General Bullard To Wed Phila.
