The high tide yesterday after noon reached a level which was more or less astounding to those who are not so well versed in the actions of Father Neptune. There was no damage done in any way shape or form but so high did it rise that for a brief interval a small portion of the radio road was wet down.. Gentle waves roll ed close to the top of the road leading out of the city giving the impression to autoists that they were skirting the edge of a lake.

HOOVER ACHIEVES
COLORADO VICTORY

Special Dispatch to The star.

DENVER, Colo, April 81. - Demo-

aside in Colorado during the week to
permit the Republicans to occupy the

of their Denver County convention and
their State and congressional district

forces achieved victory practically all

Clarence c. Hamlin, national COM
mitteeman and leader of the Hoover
forces. was reelected by a comfortable
margin over Fred o. Roof. who sought
to unseat him. Hamlin also brought
about the defeat of Mrs. Anna Wolcott
Vale by Mrs. John E. Hillman for the
post of national committeewoman. but
in doing so-according to consensus Of
opinion--he sacrificed the chance to
send a Hoover instructed delegation to
Kansas City. The motion to instruct
for Hoover was lost by only 48 votes,
which could have been mustered but

THE WEEK IN POLITICS
Summary of National Developments Based on Reports
From The Stars Special Correspondents
and Staff Writer'S

has fled for the presidential pri-
mary May 90. Two prominent Re-
publican delegate candidates, how
ever. have announced they will vote
for Hoover If elected.
Gov. Al Smith has continued to
make friends in North Carolina dur
ing his stay at Asheville. but Senator
Simmons boss of the Democratic
organization. still insists that the
State will be against the nomination
of the New Yorker and that he cam
not be nominated,
The Lowden claim of % delegates
In Minnesota is disputed. The dele
gates chosen in the tenth district
have announced they will vote for
Hoover, and this would cut the Low
den strength to 81 at most. Another
check for Lowden came in Arizona,
where former Gov. Campbell, lead
ing Republican, has recently an
nounced himself for Hoover.
The Pennsylvania primary will
bind the delegates of neither the
Republican nor the Democratic
parties for no candidate has filed
for the presidential preference.
However. on the Democratic side,
the candidates for district delegates
to the national convention have an
nounced themselves either for Smith
or against him. and good line on
the situation will be given by the
primary results. The Republicans
will send an uninStructcd delegation
to the Kansas City convention. al
though a half dozen Of the candi-
dates have announced for Hoover
and there is much sentiment in the
State for him. Smith is reported to
be reasonably sure of IS of the rs
delegates from PENNSYLVANIA and
may have as many as so.
The Republican State convention
in Colorado was virtually a Hoover
affair all down the line. it is report
ed. with the reelection of Clarence
c. Hamlin as national committee
man, a Hoover leader The delega-
ton will be at least II to 4 in favor

to make 1t appear a check for
Hoover but this report Is now de-
MED. Hoover will have the oregon
delegation solidly. Mrs. Nellie Ross,
former Governor Of Wyoming. is in
vading Oregon in the interest Of AL
Smith. The fight there is between

vention is TO be held Tuesday An

Smith.
From Illinois comes reports that
Smith will have So of the States

Lowden received another boost
for the Republican nomination when
the Republican State convention of
his State, Illinois, instructed the

Claims of % Lowden delegates from

are based on the assertion that the two

they have been claimed for Hoover,
This is denied by Lowell E. JepSon OF

"I am for Hoover" he says, "and
was elected as Hoover man. So was

and when we met recently he assured
ME that he would vote with me for Mr..
Hoover"
In a statement last week, Clarence
