itical situation and his reasons for
entering the campaign were explained
by him today.
AS he trudged along the road from
Oyster Bay village to Sycamore Hill,
on his way home from church, the

liefs convinced him that they needed
an effective leader AS to the pros.
poets of victory, Colonel Roosevelt ex-
pressed his opinion that on popu-
lar vote he would be the choice OF his
party by a big majority. How far
this result might be modified by the
nterpositon of the machinery of pol
tiles he was unable to say.

Republican voters favored him was

The colonel said he thought that
about represented the situation. In
all but four or five states, including
Delaware and Utah, Colonel Roose.

celve a majority Of the popular vote.
He added that he felt confident be
