HOOVER OR TODAY Takes Wall Baroe Rt 0 S Yuaks Pay ‘Washington, Sept, 1 UM—Herbert " Hoover is ready to rest a’ while aft- er & week of grinding work at his general headquarters here. He inaugurates a program of rec- weation today by visiting Griffith stadium teo see Babe Ruth and the other New York Yankees in a game ' “dgafnst the Washington Senators. Tomorrow the republican presi- deatial candidate will attend church and spend the remainder of the day quietly at home save for an auto- moblle drive in the afternoon. = He has no engagements for Labor Day, but probably will put in a few hours at his officé cléanip: up a week-end accumulation of mail. ) About the middle of iext week Hoover plans to leave on fishing trip of -several days in Chesapeake Bay, angting for trout and other fish tht abouht off the mouth of the Potomac river. He will be accom- panied on this trip by only a few personal friends. A real Baseball fan, the republican .standard bearer frequently ‘attended baseball games during hs seven years here as commerce secretary and with his desk clear he avails himself of an opportunity to see one game in a highly important series in the American league, * While he will it in a box in the main grandstand, he will munch peanuts along with most of the oth- er fans, but he probably will show leas partisanship than The thousands around him. His love of peanuts is second nly to his love of basebal, and he usually makes at least two calls on a vender during the regula- tion time of play. Hoover wijl find fishing from a boat on the billowing swells of the Chesapeke quite different from ang- ling in:the whirling streams of his beloved California, but the experi- ence will be no new one to him as he frequently has fished off the Po- tomac. He will use a rod, but some of those who will accompany him will be less orthodox and will revert to the old hnd line style if they can find a corner behind the boat cabin sheltered from his gaze. Winding up the last day of his first week in Washington since his western tour, the repliblican nomli- nee had a string ef visitors yester- day, receiving reports on the pro- gress of organization work in the south nd giving final instructions to James W. Ggod, of Jowa, western campalign manager, to conduct an economical cmpaign in the corn belt. He also received an invitation from Mrs. Henry Breckenridge, of New York, to address the annual meeting of the Child Health associ- ation, .of which he is president, at Chicago in October. He took the in- vitation under adviseme:.t. 4 Other callers included Senator Si- meon D. Fess of Ohio, who said con- ditions in his state were “very satis- factory”; former Senator Joseph T. Frelinghuysen of New Jersey, and William J. Ronovan, assistant Unit- ed Btates torney genéral, The nominee's engagement lisi for this forenoon included Frederick M. Prince, banker and railroad man of Boston, and Senator Arthur E. Cap- per of Kansas, CAMPAIGN STIL 5 BEWILDERING * PARTIES | EADERS (Continued from First Pdge) followers, and the season around Labor Day should see these prepara- tions begin to bear definite results. To Fight In East It goes without saying that what- ever other decisions they may make, both 8mith and Hoover will reserve a considerable part of their stump¥ speaking for the -east. No plan of campaign has been brought forward in either party which does not con- template a hammering .offensive along the northern Atlantic eea- board, where electoral votes grow thickest and where both parties pro- fess to see encoliraging signs. The east will be stumped early and late by both democrats and repgblicans, and October is likely to see the most persuasive spell-binders of them all concentrating there for the windup. It is upon this section more than | any other that political attention | has been centered during the pres- ent week. Back in Washington, Mr. Hoover began a long scries of dis. f cussions with party aides by talking over his prospects in New York and New Jersey. Gov. Smith, returning northward from a holiday on the Jersey shore, stopped for a short speech at Newark, and later in the week established an eastern contact with the farme problem hy appearing at the New York state fair at Syra- cuse, Hoover's running mate, Sen- ator Curtis, also was cn tour in the east, visiting Syracuse, Harrisburg and ather cities. ““Cargying into effect his original propesal for an intensive drive to overcome opposition in the south, Senator Robinsen, the democratic vice presidential nominee, will be- gin at once a swing through Dixie. In his speech of acceptance at Hot Springs Thutsday -he emphasized farm relief and prohibition, and he pow proposes to further appeal to his fellow-drys in the south not to quit the democratic ticket because of the modification views of Gov. Smith, He argues that 8mith, in the ‘White House, would be firmly com- mitted to strict prohibition enforce- ment, and powerleas to induce con- gress or the states to impair the law. Religious Jssue The south, in particular, contin- ues to debate sharply the religious issue—a subject which Senator Rob- inson also has taken occasion to discuss publicly in thé past. From democratic headquarters in New York, Senator Harrison of Mis- sissippi has charged that an under- hand campaign of prejudice and misrepresentation is being conduct- ed’ in the southern states, under the inspiration of someone close to the republican campaign comimttee. Senators Copeland of New York and George of Georgla have urged the voters not to reject Smith because he is a Catholic, and former Sena- tor Hardwick of Georgia has de- clared that certain “political par- sons” opposing the democratic nominee in the south in the mame of prohibition, were really actuated by religious intolerance. None of these challenges appear to have lessened the determination of the Protestant churchmen who are at the head of the anti-Smith democratic organization. They are appealnig ‘to the friends of prohi- bition and the foes of Tammany to redouble their efforts in every state. Bishop Cannon, himself, at- tending a prohibition conference in Europe, cabled home a thundering attack on Smith's modification program. ° Drive in Northwest There appears a growing belief among the democratic leaders that a real party drive in the northwest would be worth the candle. Chair- man Raskob, announcing at St. Louis a set of democratic claims which left almost nothing to the republicans, put Minnesota and Wis- consin in the front ranks of the states “assured” Smith and Robin- son. With this classification, as with many other things in Mr. Raskob's announcement, the republican lead- ers dis; e; but they do not con- ceal that they have had disquieting reports from the northwest twheat country and are prepared for a battle there. Both Wisconsin and . Minnesota are 8o heavily republican in ordi- nary years the democrats maintain no very vigorous organization in ecither state. This year is the excep- tion. During the past week Sena- tor Blaine, a leader of the Wiscon-, sin republicans, has announced that he has no doubt” his followers will vote for Smith, and Represent- ative Frear, another La Follette re- publican, has endorsed Hoover. In Minnesota the sole republican sena- tor, Schall, has refused to work for the election of Hoover. In N¥braska, on the contrary, Gov. McMullen has announced after some hesitation that he will stay wth his party—a disappointment to the democratic leaders who had hoped his defection would turn Ne- braska into the democratic column. They still see possibilitics there, and are threatening to make a serious try for the Dakotas, as well, Some There were other disappoint- ments and happy surprises, too, for both sides. In the week's grist of political news. Lamont DuPont of Delaware, whose brother and busi- ness associate recently bolted to Smith, announced he would vote for Hoover despite the republican nomi- nee’s dryness. Henry H. Curran once * republican candidate for mayor of New York, and now head of the Assotiation Against the Pro- hibition Amendment, came out for Smith. A less definite pronouncement by Willlam Green, president of the American Federation of Labor, at- tracted attention at every political council table. Speaking before the New York federation, Mr. Green praised Gov. Smith's labor record: recalled that the American Federa- tion was not itself taking sides; and then added that he felt sure labor- ing men would know how to vote for their friends. He left his hearers to draw their own conclusions. Be- | fore it adjourned, the state federa- tion endorsed Smith. Talking in Millions Meantime the two party chairmen are talking in millions again, and nobody seems to object. Chairman Raskob’s announcement fhat the democrats hoped to raise a cam- paign fund of $4,000,000 was fol- lowed by a republican decision to try to get along on $3,000,000. If, these figures come true, it will mean a big jump for the democrats over four years ago and a republican re- duction. The official figures for 1924 were: Republicans, $3,063,952; democrats, $1,230,214. Times and politics change. The report of Bryan's managers in 1900 showed a fund of only $425,000, and some who will vete this year re- member when a presidential nomi- nee rode the rails like any other passenger and swapped stories in the smoking car with his fellow travelers. Now he has a speical train, and even a vice presidential candidate rates a private car. * ~ HEARST CAUSE O POITIGAL SHOGK His Stand for Hoover is Big Surprise New York, Sept. 1 (P—A & ment by William Randolph H expressing the belief that the dem- ocrats will not be successful in the presidential campaign today caused & stir in political circles. The publisher’s statement, which was cabled from KEurope to the Brooklyn Eagle, was taken by re- publican leaders to mean that he would suppart Herbert; Hoover in thé election, although the state- ment did not specifically pledge Mr. Hearst to that course. “I do not think the democrats will be successful in this campaign on the anti-prohibition issue which Mr. Smith injected into the cam- paign after he had received the nomination,” Mr. Hearst says. He gives as bis reasons that *“th hibition issue in a presidential paign is distinctly a false issu “the people of the United & not want Tammany in control of the nation.” Although Mr. Hearst expresses the belief that prohibition is proving a failure in the United States, he 15 of the opinion that the vast major- ity of the people of this country have not yet lost faith, or at least hope,\in prohibition‘as & temper- ance measure. Senator Pat Harrison of Missis- 5ippi, a’ member of the democratic national advisory committee, said he believed Mr, Hearst ‘“allowed his personal feelings to influence his Jjudgment.” “Of course Mr. Hearst is not fond of Governor Smith since his political aspirations were clipped by the governor,” Senator ‘Harrison said. The governor refused to run on the same ticket with him when the pub. lisher wa seeking the democratic nomination for the United States senate from New York in 1922. In the last mayoralty campaign the governor and Mrs. Hearst had sharp exchanges. Senator George H. Moses of New Hampshire, vice chairman of the re- publican eastern advisory commit. tee, said: “We welcome Mr. Hearsf port. It will help a lot.” Dr. Hubert C. Work, chairman of the republican national committee, when asked if his party’s leaders would welcome Mr. Hearst into the fold said “Why, we've always con- sidered Mr. Hearst in the fold.” He apparently referred to Mr. | Hearst's statement issued shortly be- fore the republican national conven- tion last June in which the publish- er announced his support of Mr. Hoover for the nomination. WAY NOT WED GENE TIL TILE S WON (Daily News Hints Miss Lauder Has Yiews On Wedding New York, Sept. 1 UP—A copy- righted despatch from South Bris- tol, Me., in the Daily News today quotes Miss Polly Lauder as indi- cating the possibility that her mar- riage to Gene Tunney will not take place until a successor has won the heavyweight title relinquished by the champion. “It is our belief,” the News quotes her, “that as soon as Gene is really rid of the boxing title, he will be auickly forgotten. As soon as a new |champion is crowned, the masses will forget the old one. “Then we can marry and live in peace. When the ceremony is per- formed,and we are not decided as to that yet, it shall be done as quietly as possible.” Miss Lauder denied she would soon join Tunney in Europe for a wedding in Paris. The ex-champion's flancee sald she knew nothing of Tunney's ac- tivities abroad. Gene has not writ- ten her, she said, since he sailed two weeks ago. “Since Mr. Tunney has scarcely been gone long enough for me to receive a letter here,” she said, "I have no idea what is going on over there. We have received several cable messages from him, but they are always addressed to all at home, I certainly am anxiously awaiting & letter.” Miss Lauder is wearing an gagement ring which she described as “charming.” The ring consists of a square-cut dlamond about a half inch in diameter, in & lacy platinum setting, inlaid with smaller dia- monds. The circlet of the ring is also of platinum, set with smaller stones. sup- TO! . Newport, R. L, Sept. 1 (®—The sixth annual gold mashie tourna- ment on the Occan Links of T.
