currents Of advice and opinion are
bearing down upon Herbert Hoover
as he busies himself here determin-
ing campaign policies and deciding
matters Of strategy Of organization.
These come largely from east and
south, but some from the west, %
the Republican presidential candi-
date confers with his chief advisers
from the various sections and once
gets his grip firmly upon the con-
trolls of the party machinery.
With the return Of Hoover from
the west, there has been IN increas-
ing pressure from New York and
New England for greater activities
IN those sections. The set up Of the
eastern organization never has been
precisely described and apparently
there are several groups operating
more or less Independently.
There also is an increasing de.
Inand from the south for more ef-
fective organization work there. In
that section too, some advisors would
have the effort concentrated largely
IN those states where local leaders
claim sentiment has been manifested.
Another subject to which the
nominee will address himself this
week is that Of party finances. He
has called in ]. r. Mutt Of Cleve-

lie plans to say q few words at the

tional political lines. In emphasizing
his reason for this, the Democratic
presidential candidate likes to refer
to last years experience, when, he
says, there were only two Democrats
present, and he was one of them.
Reiterating. his determination to

as possible when he begins his swing
around the country, Governor Smith
told newspaper men that the only
reason he broke this rule Monday
night at Newark was because Z large
crowd had waited several hours to
