But political observers generally recognized that Hoover was not an active candidate. Persons who have discussed politics with the former president usually were convinced that he did not expect to be nominated, was not seeking the nomination but would accept it if offered. Political leaders accepted the Hoover statement as removing the former president from the field of nominee possibilities. "I expected it," said Sen. Charles L. McNary. R.. Ore., minority leader of the upper house. “I think he is only interested in principles and platform. I never did think Hoover was a candidate.” Sen. L. J. Dickinson, R„ lowa, who is a dark horse candidate, himself, said: "If all the rest would withdrew

I could be nominated.” Sen. William E. Borah, It., Idaho, an active candidate, and Sen. Frederick Steiwer, R., Ore., convention keynoter and a possible nominee, refused to comment. Democrats uniformly were silent. Anti-Hooverites among the Republican leadership have privately expressed hope that Hoover would eliminate himself more definitely from the presidential picture. Some of them would have been better pleased if the former president had accompanied his disavowal of candidacy with a declaration that he would not accept the nomination if it were offered.' Tlte Hoover statement did, however, go beyond announcement that he was not a candidate. Hoover repudiateu published reports that [ he was a party to a stop-Landon movement which apparently is flourishing among eastern party leaders. And there was so sharp a disagreement wijh Sen. William E. Borah implied in last night’s statement that it appears to some ■ observers that the former presij dent cannot agree with a vital part ' of thte senator's campaign platform.
