G, 0. P. RECALLS OLD ADAGE TO HANG TOGETHER Only Hope of Hoover Foes to Keep Jobs Is in His Re-Election. RY RAYMOND CLAPPER United Prm Staff Correnoorulent WASHINGTON, Jan. 29.—Political unpopularity of President Hoover in some sections is reacting unexpectedly to help his campaign prospects, according to information coming to this writer. This ill wind is blowing some good in the President's direction, because of the predicament in which it has placed state and local Republican politicians. Their first instinct is to look out for themselves. They are beginning to realize they are in danger of being swept out of office in a general housecleaning if they let the country turn Hoover down. Work for National Ticket Therefore they are saying if the party is going to win in national and state elections next fall, if the thousands of Republican jobholders are to keep their jobs, every one will have to get out and boost the national ticket instead of criticising it. In presidential elections it is the rule that the state ticket tends to follow the presidential* ticket. This year, it may be that in many states, the local tickets will try to pull the fictional ticket. That is the view taken by numerous politicians out In the country. Nevertheless, many Hoover convention delegates will be uninstructed. One reason in some places is that candidates for delegate, running pledged, might have greater opposition than if they went uninstructed. One Minnesota Republican leader told this writer that it would be Unwise to attempt to put through an instructed delegation there because of hostile feeling toward the administration. They will try, however, to get only men and women known to be favorable to the President on the delegation. May Need Only One Ballot New Jersey and Pennsylvania Republican organizations are planning to set up uninstructed but proHoover candidates for delegate. The regular Republican organization in one Wisconsin district has decided in favor of a pro-Hoover but unmstructed delegation. In North Dakota the regular Republicans have decided in favor of a slate of pro-Hoover delegates, openly committed. The other wing, headed by Senators Nye and Frazier, have decided upon an uninstiucted slate. All of these eariy moves confirm hie opinion of politicians in both parties that Hoover will be nominated on the first ballot. CHERRY SISTERS WILL RETURN JO FOOTLIGHTS “Stage Deplorable,” Say Survivors of Famed Old Variety Team. By United Frees DES MOINES, la., Jan. 29.—The Cherry sisters, whose vaudeville act back at the turn of the century, was so bad it was good, arc worried over the state of the American stage. But though they think “things are 20,000 times worse” today than when a barrage of old vegetables greeted their first appearance before the footlights, they are going to make a comeback. Effie Cherry, one of the two surviving sisters, characterized offerings of the present theater as “worse than burlesque.” The cause of the depression, Effie Cherry believes, is the automobile. She figures it out that the government spends tremendous sums on roads and then every one goes broke paving for their cars.
