Fishing for Nomination, Al?

Owing to the recent reports of emissaries who have been canvassing party sentiment that opposition to the renomination of Herbert Hoover as the 1932 Presidential candidate is growing in the East and West, many influential leaders of the G. O. P. have turned a hopeful eye in the direction of General Charles G. Dawes as a substitute standard hearer. But the General is distinctly cold to the proposition and when approached upon the subject termed the movement to ease him towards the White House as “absolute nonsense.'* But despite General Dawes' terse dismissal of the growing boom he is, failing the traditional renomination of the present incumbent, 'he most logical candidate upon whom the G. O. P. could build their hopes. Dawes, in a word, has everything that a Presidential candidate should have. His record in high finance and economics that stamps him as a genius in those abstruse matters should make his candidacy very acceptable to American industrialists, while his war service with the U. S. Army, during which he was promoted from major to Brigadier-General, insures the whole-hearted approval of the ex-soldiers of the country. Then, too, he has had an extensive training in diplomacy and statesmanship, having been Vice-Presi-dent under Coolidge and represented his country at many European conferences and commissions. Finally, the General has the color that appeals to the masses, his forceful and picturesque personality having won him millions of admirers nil over the country But when one considers Dawes’ intimacy with the Hoover household, his reply of “absolute nonsense ’ seems final.
