Hilles, chairman of the republican | national committee, before leaving | for New York today after attending the session of the subcommittee on arrangements for the party national convention, discussed political ques- tions, including the possible candi- daey of Ceolonel Roosevelt for the republican nomination for president. “All the information I have is to the 00 - MUTHER | THIS TICKLES ME ALL OVER euect that Colonel Roosevelt is not a candidate for the republican nomina- tion,” Chairman siilles sald. “He has de- clined to permit his name to go on the primary ballot in the only three atates where it has been suggested, Minnesota, Nebraska and Michigan Statement of Progressives. “In the statement iasued by the pro- gresaive national committee it was made plain that any reasopably satisfactory man would be acceptable as the republi- can nominee. They insisted that they I meant just what they said and we wiil | take the statement at its face value I think we will be able to nominate a man who will be satisfactory to all elements of the party and that our candidate will be elected. “In regard to Ju e Hughes, no one knows just what his attitude is today toward the presidency, In discussing the subject with a friend in 1912, Justice Hughes sald, when he went on the United States supreme court bench he took the vell and renounced the world “There 18 no man big enough to refuse the presidency, in my opinion.
