WASHINGTON, July 6.-Leaders
OF the Republican organization
began assembling here today to
complete plans for the campaign by
which they hope to elect Secretary
of Commerce Hoover President.
Chairman Work of the Repub-
lican national committee has sum-
moned Senator Moses, probable
manager of Hoover's campaign in
the East, and a group of national
committeeman from eastern States
for a conference tomorrow after
noon.
officers of the eastern organiza-
ton probably will be announced
tomorrow, and arrangements COM
pleted for an intensive campaign
particularly in New York, New
Jersey, and other States where
Governor Alfred E. Smith, Demo
cratic nominee, is felt to be strong

Once the eastern organization is
completed, Republican leaders will
Hoover hopes to have his forces we'll
organized and functioning smoothly
before he leaves for the West, prob
ably late next week.
So far, reports of confusion and
1ndecision have been current about
the efforts of his campaign head
quarters. Announcements from
Hoover's Office have been denied by
Work, and Works statements have
been reversed by Hoover's spokes-
man.
While he was at the summer
White House in Wisconsin, for eX-
ample, Work was quoted as saying
he was not informed that Hoover
proposed to resign as secretary of
commerce or that he intended to
visit President Coolidge en- route
West.
Reports Are Conflicting
At Hoover's Office, meanwhile, it
was announced definitely that the
secretary would ask to be relieved
from his departmental duties when
he stops off at Brule, Wis, later this
month.
Work said yesterday that news
paper men apparently had mis-
quoted him frequently while in the
West and since his return. Work
volunteered the information that
he talked in low voice and proba-
Div had been misunderstood.
Work said he had been misquoted
In western dispatches, which said
he did not regard the farm prob
lem as national issue
All the national committees plans
appear uncertain. No date has been
set for Hoover'S departure; both
eastern and western managerships
remain unassigned, and other i'm
portant offices are untitled.

MONTGOMERY, Ala, July a.
While no Democratic leader In Alabama
has announced his intention of oppos-
ing Gov. Alfred E. Smith for the presi-
dency in the present campaign, oppo-
nents of the New Yorker are making a
quiet campaign among the ultra-drys
to turn votes to the Republican ticket.
First indications of an organized effort
peared when the Alabama w. c. T. u.
launched drive early this week against
the Democratic nominee
Activity for Hoover thus far is con-
fined to certain ministers who believe
or pretend TO helieve--that election of
Smith means the return OF the open
saloons
Word has been sent out by these
workers that for one time Alabama
must desert the Democratic party
The charge Is made that Gov. Smith
"bolted the platform" in accepting the
nomination.
Just how far the opposition will get,
the wisest political observers are. un-
willing to guess. That strong follow
ing can be corralled Is conceded. unless
the Democratic forces get busy and
counterfeit the work that is now being
done from the pulpit, Two or three
country weekly newspapers In the State
have announced determination to
follow the Republican leaders. so far as
the national ticket is concerned. Others
are giving comfort to the enemy"
Activity In the Republican camp dur
ing the week includes the announce
ment that meeting will be held in
Birmingham Wednesday by the State
committee to nominate a full State
ticket for all Offices. as we'll as IL candi-
dates for presidential electors.
In addition to naming party candi-
dates for State Offices. the committee
also is authorized to lay plans for wag-
ing a vigorous campaign. A special
effort will be made In many sections
where the party Is weakest to avoid
conflict so far as county officers are
concerned and work for the Hoover
