COMPLETES SWING
 IF TWELVE STATES
Asserts It Is Too Early To Predict Whether President
 Will Be Nominated

WASHINGTON, oct 19.-President Coolidge will have opposition in the republican national convention next year, Senator Moses of New Hamp- shire, chairman of the republican senate campaign committee, said to- day on his return from swing through 12 states.
 The senator, who conferred with the President duEing the day on the political situation. added, however, everywhere he had found a favorable spirit toward Mir. Coolidge with scarcely any leading republicans who did not take his running for granted.
 Pinchot, Pennsylvania. and John son of California were among those mentioned by Senator Moses. He would not venture a prediction as to whether AIr. Coolidge would be nominated. saying it was too early ,hat there are today more men "af- firmatively for Henry Ford for president than for any other one man."
 They are not all of one party he said, nor are they organized. If Ford accepts the nomination of the farmer-labor party IS he seems in clipad now to do. the situation will be somewhat unhappy for the re publicans as I would think that every GlecJOTdl vote fOTu WILL SGl will be at the expense of the re- publican party"
 Lowien Is Active.
 Senator Moses said Governor I.owdenAis conducting an active cam paign for the republican presiden- tial nomination, adding that he has a capable representative in Wash iIgton who is undertaking to per- suade the republican leaders in the states to stand for uninstructed delegates.
 "In one or two congressional dis tricts in Indiana" he continued. Johnson for President" clubs has been organized. Also Senator Wat son has an organization in that state that undoubtedly will try to get the nomination for Watson.
 There is no doubt that Pinchot is a candidate. Governor Dixon of Montana recently made a speech nominating him. I expect that Sen ator Johnson will get some delegates i'll Pennsylvania also.
 "I was told in New York that that state will go for Senator Wads- worth.
 Senator Moses said he had not found any material change in the political sentiment in the west There still is this feeling of dis satisfaction and resentment" he added. They find it hard to de- fine or explain. but l think it exists very clearly and it seems that the situation has been very badly dealt with by the republicans

His Form Affected.

Q O o
 His Form Affected.
 The Rancocas colt. too went lame not long after his Kentucky Derby i triupmph and this, combined with ! later developments, undoubtely has affected his form.
 One of the most interesting fea- lures of the race tomorrow will be the matching of riding wits and gen. eralship between Steve Dpnoghue, premier rider of England. and Eari Sande, leading American jockey who will have the leg up on Zev. Both are exec )tional horsemen and quick witted pilots, bred in the strategy of the turf.
 Donoghue. who has won five Eng fish derbies. piloted Papyrus to vic tory at Epson Downs, this year for his third, successive triumph in this classic. He ranks at the top in mum Der of victories in England this victories so far to his credit. heads the eastern track riders.
 My own Ready To Run.
 Admiral Cary T.. Grayson's My l Own, which arrived late today at Belmont Park in response to an emergency call from the Jockey club. is fit and prepared to run against Papyrus, according to the bay colts trainer. w. P. Burch.
 My Own has been Zev's outstand- ing rival for three-year- hoaors this year and was chosen as first all ternate to the Rancocas colt when Americas candidate for international honors was named. Many. in fact be- lieved My Own more formidable contended because the Grayson colt has showed marked ability at ianger distances.
 My Own has won all six of his starts this season. his last victory coming in the s10,0o0 Maryland handicap last Saturday. when the son of King James won handily over a strong field and covered the mile and a quarter in 2;02 2-5.
 My owns first victories were at Saratoga and the fifth was in the National trial sweepstakes. the sec ond official test for candidates to meet Papyrus. The detailed record of the races follows:
 Saratoga Springs. the crown point stakes, one mile: Won easily in lar 4-5. Dream Maker. second; Homestrctch. third
 Saratoga Springs, The Lake Plaza stakes, one mile: Won easily In 1:3S. Mutiny, second Moonraker. third.

 Abandonment Trophy
 The international challenge cup, which will be at stake in the S100,000 international race at Belmont park, Is one of the handsomest trophies ever offered for thoroughbreds com petition.
 The cup is of solid gold. stands about 12 inches high, and weighs about 100 ounces. It is hand made copy of a cup fashioned in 1707, dur ing the reign of Queen Anne, period when racing was most popular and had royal support.
 every feather clearly etched, orna- ments the top of the trophy, which also bears on one side the arms of the United States. The other side is reserved for a list of winners
