PRESIDENT IN INTERVIEW
DISCUSSES GOV. HUGHES.

one of the standing traditions Of the
White House here to-day when he was
interviewed by Buffalo reporters, who
afterward quoted him directly.

the President, L was at Albany. and
while there had a long talk with Gov.
Hughes. In the course of il / tried 10
get the governor 10 run again this fall
But he said his mind was made I'd and
that he would not be a candidate again
1t wasn't until after he made this state
mcnt to me that I offered him his new
position, and he accepted. The governor
gave me many reasons"
Was his principal reason the matter
of expense to maintain his position as
governor"
That was one thing referred to. but,
as l have stated, the governor gave me
several reasons His mind was made up.
and you know what Hughes is once his
mind is made up. l knew then that he
wouldn't run again for governor. and
that much was settled. He had argued
the thing out as he always does He had
lined up his arguments for and against
running again. and he reached the con
clusion that he wouldn't run again. That
being settled, he was offered the posi-
ton in the United States Supreme
Court"
What about the political outlook in
the nation?" was the next question
asked the President. What deduction.
If any. do you make from the Demo-
cratic victories in the several Congress
sional districts thus far?"
I'm not political prophet" said the
President Il am not versed in these po-
litical affairs"
