THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

VICE PRESIDENT LIGHTNING MAY HIT EASTERNER Tilson, Edge, Fisher and Fuller in Running for G. 0. P. Choice. Bu Times Svecial WASHINGTON, Dec. 23.—The star of Republican politics may have moved from eastern to western skies as far as the presidential nomination is concerned, but the outstanding candidates for the vice presidential nomination come from six states on the Atlantic seaboard. It is taken for granted that Vice President Dawes eventually will appear as a presidential candidate, and he does not figure in discussion of second place. Moreover, should thp nomination go to Hoover, Curtis, Lowden, Longworth or some other western man, Dawes probably would be unavailable, for geographical reasons. Senator Edge of New Jersey and Majority Leader Tilson of the House are believed to be the most popular candidates for the vice presidency, if political considerations should necessitate choice of a man so far east as New Jersey or Connecticut. Should Curtis be named for first place, however, it is doubtful whether another Senator would be considered as a running amte. Two Governors Named Two eastern Governors have been mentioned, but each has a fairly

large handicap. The first is Governor John S. Fisher of Pennsylvania, supposed to be friendly to the Hoover candidacy. The Republicans may think twice, however, before taking a man from the State whose Senator-elect is now under Senate Investigation, because of alleged excessive expenditures in the primary. Governor Alvan T. Fuller of Massachusetts, a stanch Hooverite, has been talked of as a vice presidential possibility. But many feel the part he played in sending Sacco and Vanzetti to the chair would be a distinct disadavantage. A1 Smith’s threat as the Democrats’ possible standard-bearer has led some Republicans to look favorably on a New Yorker for second place. But most of the prominent Republicans in that State are reposing in graveyard that stands as a monument to Smith’s vote-getting ability. Mills Also Mentioned Despite \helr apparent unavailability, the G. O. P. is discussing such men as Ogden L. Mills, undersecretary of the treasury; former Senator Wadsworth and Theodore Roosevelt. There is nobody else to discuss if a New York man is wanted. It is doubtful, however, If the convention will forget that Smith defeated Roosevelt by 107,000 in 1922, Mills by 250,000 last year and con-

tributed tc Senator Wagner’s victory over Wadsworth. Senator Moses of New Hampshire, now acting as president pro tem of the Senate, is another likely choice —if he will abandon the floor, where his wit enlivens debate and repartee, for an office that will bar him from active participation in his colleagues’ exchanges.
