WASHINGTON 81
], LETTER SKI

Tor the last 20 years will confirm
that as general statement.
Thus when two men stand head
and shoulders above the other can
didates for the republican nomination,
as do Hoover and Dawes, the man
who has the least opposition within
the party seems likely to win. And
it's fact that while some important
political elements which would stand
for Dawes would put up a real fight
against Hoover, the elements in the
Hoover strength would have little
trouble in accepting Dawes.
Dawes Better Bet

the better bet.
The important anti-Hoover senti-
ment will be found among farmers,
senators and other politicians. Among
these classes of influence Dawes has
been busy building up his fences.
He is the strongest candidate who
will appeal to all three, although
any one of them might prefer some
one else.
Hoover's great strength lies with
the business and financial interests
He has had the aid of a matchless
publicity machine and for a long time
has appealed to the imagination of
the ordinary man.
But is Dawes found wanting in
those respects? Not at all. He is
a banker himself and is tied up

Both Men Want Job
The two men are both believed to
be extremely ambitious for the presi-
dency.
With the foreign situation as it
is, Americas international bankers
will be quite solicitous about the next
president. 1t is predicted that the
Morgan interests, for instance, will
support Hoover.
But the Mellon interests and per-
maps, ge'>'ra'~> speaking, the domestic
financial interests, are likely to line
up for Dawes. Dawes is one of their
own. And these interests are pron-
ably much more potent politically
than the others.

state. After Watson had been given
several votes in the convention. or
perhaps only one. if the delegation be
instructed for him. then it can turn
to some other candidate. To which
one, however, is still problematical.
Dawes Is Strong.
OF the socalled big four" Repub
lican presidential possibilities since
the Coolidge announcement, Vice
President Charles G. Dawes appears
to have the inside track at the present
writing so far as the Indiana delega-
ton is concerned. The Indiana Farm
Bureau is intent on sending a Lowden
delegation. it Is said, and may offer
his name for the presidential pri-
mary next year. whether the politi-
clans want him put forward or not.
Gen. Dawes is regarded here as the
logical inheritor of the Lowden
strength in the Republican national
convention. He, too, has favored the
NcNary- Haugen bill. 1t is not ex-
pected. however. that Gen. Dawes will
become a formidable candidate in the
convention until Mr.. Lowden has been
=
to be nominated since both are from
Illinois and Gen. Dawes is A friend Of
Mr.. Lowden. 1t is believed that Sena-
tor Watson is friendly to the Dawes
candidacy and certain influences are
at work to see that the Indiana dele
cation goes to Dawes in the end.
Dawes will have strong newspaper
support in Indiana as the convention
draws nearer. The indianapolis
News, for example. already has de-
clared editorially for his nomination,
and others are expected to follow suit.
Secretary Hoover of the Depart
ment Of Commerce has friends in the
State, particularly among the bust
ness men, who believe he would make
an excellent President and a strong
candidate. A plea for his nomination
