Washington, Jan. l0.-The state
ment by the president to a caller to.
day that Taft would have more than
600 votes on the first ballot bears out
the reports being received by senators
and representatives of conditions in
their states. 1t Is not overstating
the situation to say that many re-
publicans of national reputation who
are not friendly to Taft's candidacy,
believe be will be as far In the lsad
In another six weeks that his nomin-
alton will be generally conceded.
There has never been such re-
markable growth in political senti.
ment in so short time as has been
shown by the Taft boom since the
Secretary's return. This Is not due
to his own presence, although that
has inspired his followers With fresh
courage. But the presidents letter,
taking himself out of the race, paved
the way for the Taft movement as
nothing else has done.
There Is belief that the Hughes
movement has been on the decline
since it was evident that the govren-
or was not In control of the party
machinery OF his state.

ant postmaster-general, who has
