The World and Hoover.

The New York World. one Of the
most influential newspapers in Ameri'
ca. particularly ia the shaping of Dem
ocratic policies, comes out with an edi-
torial covering half its editorial page
in which it commits itself to the can
didaey Of Herbert Hoover, in these
words:
We should be glad to support Mr..
Hoover as the Democratic candidate
for president on a platform that rep
resented the historical principles of the
Democratic party. We should be glad
to support him as an independent can.
didate on platform Of progressive lib
eralism We should not hesitate to
support him a. the Republican eandi-
date on platform representing the
kind Of government which Mr.. Hoover
has exemplified in his public career
This is going good ways for the
World, since ii is not inconceivable that
the Republicans win nominate him:
and were they to do so. this advance
prefer Of support would be Of material
value. But the Worlds influence is
more likely to be effective in its own
party. Readers of the Herald have not

Government by Mystery.

| / Just what the row is all about in the
French Chamber of Deputies is not
clear. But then, nothing ever Is clear
about French polities--at least from
the small part of the story which the
outside world is permitted to hear. II
was so all through the war. Ii has not
changed
There was a startling example OF this
mystery manipulating few days ago.
One morning we read that Premier
Clemenceau could be president of
France if he cared to, There was anoth-
er candidate in the field, but he was
not to be taken seriously.
The following morning we read that
Premier Clemeneeau had been defeated.
That was ALL There was no explana
ton, either Of the defeat or Of the Sc
crecy, though it must have been known
DAYS beforehand that NJ. Clemenceau
was at least in danger OF beating.
A similar mystery enshrouds the Rus.
sian question. A week ago yesterday
food of news about the Russian situa-
ton was suddenly let loose. Its com
nlexion was all of the red military men
ace The next day a second food OF Rus
sian news was released. of quite a diff
ferent complexion. tending TO justify
the allies change of policy in lifting
the blockade.
The inference was that the first batch
was released by the British war office
in its attempt to forestall Premier
Lloyd Georges lifting of the blockade
against soviet Russia; and that the
second lot was put out through the
agency of the premier or his faction to
Justify the sudden change OF policy.
The point is, however, that both
patches were full of items of informa
ton which. on internal evidence, must
have been known for weeks, If not for
months; indeed, there were open inti-
nations in the dispatches themselves
that such was the fact.
Now the whole question of what the
supreme council in general and the
British in particular are going to do
about the Russian question, as regards
helping Poland and as regards throw
ing the "barbed wire fence" across up
per India and Persia, is once more in a
state of incertitude.
The London Times remarks, with
pardonable evaporation, that England
is tired Of this mystery mongering."
So are the rest of us. Boston Globe.
