Since leaving Washington on July 14, the republican presidential can- didate has covered more than 8000 miles, has been greeted by nearly a million persons, delivered five pared addresses, includir cepting the nomination, more than two doze ralks. He returns to V tonight to take f his campaign f ditions as he has found heartened for the strenuo; that is ahead getting under way The reception given him in To the state of his birth, and reports 1 received while rom leaders from all of the grain gro states were particularly pleasing, for in going to the place of his birth to renew bovhood associations he was moving into the one section of the country which had furnished cause for apprehension by at le party leaders. While some of his advisers told Hoover bluntly that the outlook in Minnesota, Wisconsin, and s other northwestern states was not ¢ satisfactory as might be, they his acceptance speech had acted to favorably and th was a strong indication that he would carry every state in the turbulent grain belt. In his personal s the nominee was e to bring line several who at best had only luke-warm toward his cand dacy and others who had hestitated to announce their support. pre- n rear p ast some Iks with leaders, een Hoover returns home with the campaign issues drawn, and with the prohibition question standing well fo the forefront owing to the declara- tion of his democratic opponent for amendment of the 1Sth amendment 0 as to permit state determination of the liquor question, The republican nominee has stead- ily declined to make any comment on Gov. Alfred E. Smit accept- ance address. However, dvisers say he will discuss th ohibition question later, emphasizing his own declaration against repeal of the 15th amendment and against any modifi- cation of the enforcement laws which would permit that which the constitution forbids Hoover's campaign plans have yet to be mapped out, and details will depend largely on conditions as th develop in various scctions of ¢ country. It is generally helicved by his adviser however, that he will visit the border states and invade the south and also make some specches in the east before his second swing across the country at the close of the campaign so as to be at his ford university home in time to vote on November 6 When he departed from Cedar Rapids, candidate was given an enthusiastic farewell by the citizens there, while 200 residents of his birthplace West Branch, were gathered at th station there for a last greeting as his trajn swept through the village running an hour and a half hehind schedule, due to a change of plans agreed on in the forenoon.
