The confidence of the voter in the
capacity and fitness of Herbert Hoover
for the presidency was the keynote
sounded last night by Senator Borah
in a speech which eliminated huge
demonstration by Massachusetts, Re-
publicanS for the Hoover Curtis ticket
This confidence of the electorate was
characterized by the Senator "as the
dominating, winning factor, pointing
toward Hoover's victory" His address,
prepared for delivery late last night

tails rally, which included two-hour
torchlight parade and the listening by
a large audience filling the BoStor

I'm the South, they do not speak of
parties, but of Hoover: Hoover, the
executive, the man among men. The
business man, the laborer and the farm
er feel that he approaches the prob
lens of today both as a student and
as doer of things, as man who will
not be driven to accept false theories.
but who insists upon thoroughness and
permanency as the elements of his pro-
gram.
In the last 40 days, I have talked
with men and women in every walk of
life and with almost every outlook upon
life and that is the measure they arc
giving to MIR. Hoover. They believe he
is equal to the task; that he is equipped
to deal with our great economic and
social problems and to deal with them
not only Soundly, but with Justice"
Emphasizing that the Government
touches the life of American citizens at
almost every point" the Senator ap-
pealed to the Bay State electorate to
support Hoover on this basis. Both
our material and moral welfare are
vitality affected" he declared, for bet
ter or for worse. by the wisdom or un-
wisdom of our Government, no less by
administration of laws than the laws
which we pass"
