SMITH OPPONENTS
SWING TO HOOVER
New York G. O. P. Sees Cali
fornian as Best 1923 Foe
for Governor.
BY FREDERIC WILLIAM VILE.

Opportunity came to this writer dur
; ing the recent week end to sound out
responsible Democratic and Repub-
lican sentiment in pivotal New York
( State. 1t is considered there that the
pre- convention campaign in both par
ties is now in fun blast. and. despite
reluctance of Republican presidential
candidates to come out into the open,
that the situation is fairly clarified
Democratic conditions in the big
Commonwealth, upon the conquest or
whose as electoral votes both parties
so largely depend, may be summarized
as follows:
l. Gov Smiths ascendancy, In the
cpinion of his supporters, is now so
thoroughly assured that his nomina-
tion relatively early in the Demo-
cratic national convention is looked
upon as a foregone conclusion.
Southern Foes Fade.
2. The Smith camp. without making
any aggressive campaign for dele
gates, can discern no other Democrat
in the country, wet or dry. capable OF
rallvjnw around himself enough
strength TO be considered n real fac.
tor.
& Southern Protestant dry anti
Smith sentiment has failed to ma
terialize to any extent that causes the
Smith people either dismay or anxiety.
Smith counts now upon sufncleht
Southern votes to give him the NOM
tnation under the two-thirds rule aft
er comparatively few ballots.
4. Smith enthusiasts figure OUT ms
election as a result of carrying New
York, Massachusetts,. connecticut,
New Jersey. the South minus per,
haps Kentucky and Tennessee) anu
some Western States.
MANY responsible Republican lead
ers anpear to have written off" New
York State in the event that AL Smith
Is the Democratic nominee. Their
view is that the governors personal
triumph in the recent Statewide eiec-
tion made his grip on the common
wealth political stranSlehold Re'
publican strategy in the country at
large, it is argued, now unmlstakahH
calls for the nomination of somebody
who can win the West and carry the
election of 1928 without New York's
electoral vote.
Stampede Is Doubted.
It's been a commonplace, within and
outside Of New York State, to say
that tens of thousan nds of Repub-
Iicans" who always voted for Smith
for goyetnor would vote against him
for President. This correspondent
asked dozen Republicans of promi-
nence to say how justified that as
sumption is There was consensus
that it isn't justified at all. "Ten per
cent" was said to be "a liberal esti-
mate" of Republicans of that class.
In Smith quarters opinion is eX-
pressed freely that Herbert Hoover is
the Republican who would give the
governor the hardest race in New
York state. Various reasons are as
eicned for this view. The Hughes
