WASHINGTON, April SO.-Herbert
Hoover has just taken n step that has
satisfied the Providence Journal that
he was not party to any plan or con-
spiracy by which the Wilson admins
tration was planning to perpetuate It's
policies And the Providence Journal
has published an editorial declaring
that, after examining proof submitted
by MIR. Hoover 1t is glad to tell its
readers that there Is no truth in any
suggestion OF collision between the
White House and Mr. Hoover, and that
there is an entire lack Of sympathy
on Mr. Hoovers part of the political,
economic, industrial and international
policies Of the president
This makes II possible to disclose for
the first time some of the CirCum-
stances about which the story was con-
structed of COLLISION between Mr. Hoover
and the White House. Indeed, largely
because the New York World which
had been a staunch supporter Of Presi-
dent Wilson, came out for Mr. Hoover
for president on either the Republican
or the Democratic ticket, and largely be-
cause members Of the Wilson admin
istration did not conceal their enthusi-
asm for Mr.. Hoover, the conclusion
was Immediately drawn Of n Demo-
cratic plot TO divide the Republican
