American Honor First
Is RooseveHs Slogan
forNationalCan

NEW YORK. April e.-Col. Theodore
Roosevelt 10 today regarded as q recep-
tive candidate for the Republican Presi-
dental nomination.
For the present Colonel Roosevelt II
not expected to .renounce his position
that his name shall not appear upon
ballots in the primary elections IN the
various States. but there came from
Oyster Bay last night q story indl-
the Republican nomination.
II the g.. o. convention wants to
nominate the colonel on an America
hrst" platform. the colonel Ia willing.
That was inferred from an interview he
had with a political caller. who expects
to be 3 delegate to the Chicago conven-
tion. and who said:
You know. colonel. I may make up
my mind that we'll have to nominate
you"
Mr.. Roosevelt then suggested that the
Republican party should not nominate
him II 1t expected him to ''pussy-foot"
on single issue he has raised. His
slogan. he said. was the protection OF
American rights everywhere.
The colonel denied that he wanted
war: in fact. he asserted he abhorred
an unjust or wanton war, and would
use every honorable cxpedient to avoid
even a Just war.
Colonel Rooseveit's statement was
by a small group OF callers at
Sycamore Hill. They departed with the
firm conviction that the former Presi-
dent Is a receptive candidate.
Chief interest In the Republican
political situation conferred today on the
next word from oyster Bay. Is there
to be a formal announcement by Colonel
Roosevelt or his lieutenants and will he
seek to amplify or analyze the state
ment he made to his political caller yes
