Il basis Of permanent peace.
Mr.. Hoovcr's speech made great
impression on his audience. Especially
were they impressed with the suggestion
that moral values should be uppermost.
Since that time. there has been a
growing feeling that Mr.. Hoover would
himself De the ideal candidate for the
director gencralship.
Recently the sentiment for Mr..
Hoover has crystallizcd to an extent
which led to Mr.. Bok's offer of $50, 900
q year for the services of the great Or
ganizcr. The advocates of Mr.. Hoover
point out that his association with the
fair would assure, first of all. getting
the stock subscriptions necessary for the
fairs success. The Federal Government.
as we'll as individual subscribers, would
have every confidence III both the plan
ming and execution of any undertaking
behind which Mr.. Hoover stood.
No less important a consideration.
they point out, is that Of Mr.. Hoover $
relations with foreign peoples.
His friends among the backcrs of the
fair believe that he may bc able to nc-
cept an invitation to become director

able to get into the law a pledge TO

move in this fight has been directed
toward gradually committing the Gov.

Presidents Hands Tied
Tho first step was the committing OF
President Harding to such payment
when he was seeking the delegates from
Ohio to the Republican National Con-
vcntion. Mr.. Harding regrets that
commitment, but feels bound TO it, even
though 1t was made without full
realization of the financial difficulties
confronting the Government.
The second step was the President
rccommiting himself to the bonus las,
spring when he asked the Senute tC

sion. but indicated that he favored a
bonus later on.
