A Wispering campaign Is on In some
ouarters against Mr.. Hoover, alleging
that at one time he sought naturaliZa-
ton as an Englishman. But the same
charge was made in 1920 when he
was mentioned for the presidential
nomination. The records were
searched in England and it was Off.
cially reported that no Herbert Hoover
had ever made application for nat.
uralization as an Englishman, and,
indeed, no man by the name Of Hoover
| had ever made such application. II
Mr., Hoover becomes a candidate
and at present he is giving his atten.
| ton to his Job as Secretary Of Com
merce-doubtless this matter of the
records will become public.
If the farm aid problem can be dis.
posed Of at the coming session of Con-
gress by the passage OF a bill to help
| the farmers which the President will
approve, the situation will be changed
in the twinkling Of an eye. The West
and Middle West, having obtained
their wish, may be expected to line up
with the East on the matter of Re.
publican nominee without much diff.
Guilty. There are signs that such a
bill may be put through. Such so.
luton would aid both Mr.. Hughes and
Mr.. Hoover to the nomination. The
dyed.in.the.wo supporters of the Nc.
Nary. Haugen bill are insisting that
bill. with it's equalization fee. be put
through again, and nothing else.
They lay themselves open to the sus-
picion, however, of playing politics
with the farm aid question. Either
the farmers must stand ready to meet
the losses of marketing the surplus
crops themselves, or the Government
must meet the losses. II the Govern.
ment meets the losses, it amounts to
subsidy to the farmers. Eastern
IeaAess prefer to see the subsidy
