The supporters of General Leonard
Wood. it was stated officially, will make
no effort to have the generate name
written in as candidate for the Re-
publican preference. Hoover leaders
have publicly announced that they will
not interfere with Governor Sproul as
the first choice of the delegates elected.
Nevertheless. there will undoubtedly be
sporadic attempts here and there
throughout the state to write in the
names of such candidates as Senators
Knox and johnson, General Wood, Gov
ernor> Srroul, Herbert Hoover and
others. But as no organized or con-
certed effort will be made along those
lines by any of the prominent candidates
and as the writing in Of names is a
difficult matter, more or less, the Re-
publican presidential primaries in this
state will tell the country nothing that
it does not now know about Pennsyl-
vania and t9c plans of the state lead
ers. The delegation, no matter who is
elected, will be, tC all intents and pur-
poses, uninstructed and will then be

Palmer's Name on Ballot
The Democratic ballot, on the other
hand, supplies the basis for a real in
sight into Democratic national poll
tics. A. Mitchell Palmer, attorney
general and leader of the Democratic
state organization, is a candidate for
the Democratic preferential vote for
President. He is the sole candidate
whose name appears printed on the
Democratic ballot. His friends, run
ming as candidates for delegates to the
San Francisco convention, promise to
support the popular choice.
The Palmer candidacy is being vigor-
ously opposed by the "wet" forces, led
by Judge Eugene G. Bonniwell, of the
Philadelphia Municipal Court. The
judge has called on his supporters to
combat the Palmer candidacy by writ
ing in the name of William G.. McAdoo,
