HOOVER MEETS BONUS GROUP! GETS PROTEST Bonus Marchers Claim Victory When President Receives Them. By Brrlpp-H nrrnrd \rimpaprr Allinnrf, WASHINGTON, Oct. 14—Soldier bonus marchers, who were driven out of Washington by troops last Ju&; or. orders from Com-mander-in-chief Herbert Hoover, today feel that they have gained an Important tactical victory. They were received by Mr. Hoover, after waiting two hours and fifteen minutes in the White House lobbv for the privilege of personally presenting to him a sharp resolution, adopted at the recent convention of the Bonus Expeditionary Forces at Uniontown, Pa. Because the resolution “severely cepsured” him and his administration, the President did not personally receive the resolution, but it was presented to Brigadier-General Frank T. Hines, director of the veterans' administration, in his presence. Mr. Hoover, however, did shake bands with Hoke Smith of Florida, national field commander of the B. E. F., the spokesman for the delegation of twelve, including two women, who called upon him. It appeared for quite a while that the veterans would not see Mr. Hoover at all. Smith, in a brief speech to the President, pledged the “unswerving allegiance of the Bonus Expeditionary Forces to the flag, our country and its Constitution.” Hoover did not reply, and the petition was given to Hines. The presentation took about two minutes. The veterans seemed confused, disappointed when they came out of Hoover’s office. Smith said: “We were received

G. 0. P. FACES LOSS OF NEGRO, FOREIGN VOTE Defection May Prove Highly Damaging to Hoover at Election. Bit Hcripp*-Hnwanl \rimpnprr Allinnrr WASHINGTON, Oct. 14.—The Republican high command has begun frantic efforts to win back two normally Republican groups hostile to President Hoover—the Negroes and the various elements of foreign ancestry, but reports today indicated that their rush to the Democratic standard has not, been checked. Hoover's reception of 100 Negroes at the White House a few weeks ago has been bitterly by eighteen Negro newspapers as a belated effort to repair the party's neglect of the Negro voter. According to editorial charges, the affair was arranged by Everett Sanders, Republican national committeeman. and Ray Benjamin, attache at the Chicago headquarters, and the SB,OOO bill was paid for by
