A SUGGESTION THAT HE WOULD
PREFER oDELL

Republican politicians who were at the Repub-
Ncan State Headquarters in the Fifth Avenue Hotel
extended a warm greeting to Aeutenant-Governor

William Barnes, jr., chairman OF the Executive
COMMITTEE. and Frederick S. Gibbs, National Com
rnitteeman. Mr.. Barnes and Mr.. Gibbs have ex-
pressed their belief that Mr. Woodruff is to be the
Republican candidate for Governor.
Senator PIatt was at the headquarters in the
afternoon. He would not admit that he had ex-
rpressed himself to Mr. Woodruff or to any other
Brooklyn Republican giving assurance of the
Republican nomination for Governor. He said to
Mr. Odeil that it seemed to him that his attitude
chad been misunderstood. He said he merely
yEanted to have the strongest candidate nominated
