Senator Harding of Ohio, his friends
say will be a candidate. His recent
announcement that he would not run
Is not taken seriously here. His sup
porters look for such a strong demand
for him that he will enter the contest.
BORAH ALSO MENTIONED.
Senator Borah has been mentioned,
as has Senator Lodge and other OPP
ponents of the treaty, but close political
observers believe their strength is
based largely on the present treaty
situation and that new issues will elm
mate them.
q Senator Poindexter is a conspicuous
presidential candidate. His friends
were booming him internationally more
than year ago.
Senator Cummins probably will

minute to capture the convention.
There are many other possible candi-
dates, some of whom are not openly
affiliated with either great party. Two
Of these are General Pershing and
Herbert Hoover. Should either of
them run, he probably would do so
on his personal record rather than on
any political party record. Pershing
has avoided identity with party and
there are few who know toward which
group Hoover inclines.
Pershing is being kept out OF the
limelight so consistently that there is
belief his hackers intend to produce
him as an eleventh hour candidate and
send him on n tour of the country
that they are holding back his tour un-
til 1T can be made when the campaigns
are getting under way.
There Is considerable sentiment
throughout in favor of Hoover and in
dependent clubs. urging him as a can
didate. are expected to spring into be-
ing within a few weeks.
