The unanimity 0f opinion for
Hoover among leaders is surprising
il view of his opposition to the
McNary -Haugen bill which had the
support of congressional represen-
tatives from the states mentioned
and also because of the fact that
Hoover has never been popular with
the political leaders.
The west was supposed generally
to be for Lowden but If the re-
ports brought here are as authentic
as they seem and if Hoover can
draw in sufficient votes from the
industrial east, where he was sup
posed to be more popular than here,
he will have an excellent chance of
