C. 0. P. LEADERS
SHIFT TO HOOVER
Present Trend Indicates
Early Nomination.
BY LEO r. SACK

WASHINGTON, Jan. 16.-Herbert
Hoover's march to the Republican
presidential nomination appears to
be a triumphal procession.
The election year, now in its third
week, is disclosing such nation
wide drift for Hoover that ex-
perienced Republican politicians are
concluding that the Secretary of
Commerce will be nominated on one
of the early ballots at Kansas City.
Exclusive announcement in the
Scripps- Towards newspapers on
Saturday that Secretary of the
Treasury A. w. Mellon and the
Pennsylvania delegation of seventy
nine votes will support Hoover was
as a development OF the
highest Importance. Its publication
created furore in national political
circles.
With Melon joining forces with
the rank and file of voters from
New Hampshire to California, Hoo
ver's nomination can't be stopped,
politicians were agreed. To them
it meant that the MELONS, who
speak not only for Pennsylvania, but
for financial and industrial interests
throughout the nation, had con-
Guided that Hoover is the outstand''
ing candidate among the Repub-
licans and that he, at the head of
the ticket, offers the best chances
of q Republican victory.

Put Faith in People

The sovereignty of small nations
is respected.
1t is for the purpose of giving
stronger guarantees to these prin-
ciples, of increasing the amount and
extending the breath of these
blessings, that this conference has
been assembled.
Our most sacred trust has been
and is the establishment and eX-
panSion of the spirit Of democracy.
We have put our confidence in the
ultimate wisdom Of the people. We
believe we can rely on their in
telligence, their honesty, and their
character.
1--WE are committed thoroughly to
the principle that they are better
fitted to govern themselves than
anyone else is to govern them
Next to our attachment to the
principle of self-government has
been our attachment to the policy OF
peace.
When the republics Of the west
ern hemisphere gained their indie
pendence. they were compelled to
fight for it. They always have been
brave, resolute and determined
people, willing to make any sacri-
fees to defend what they believed
to be their rights.

Plea for Understanding

Turning again to the question OF
peaceful means of settling disputes,
the President declared:
ut is a high example that we
have set for the world in resolving
international differences without
resort to force y. Our republics
seek no special privileges for them
selves, nor are they moved by any
Of those purposes Of domination and
restraints upon liberty Of action
which in ether times and places
have been fatal to peace and prog
resS.
THE lights which Columbus fol-
lowed has not failed" the PreSi-
dent said in conclusion. 1.-THE cour-
age that carried him on still lives.
They are the heritage of the people
Of Bolivar and Of Washington.
I'VE must lay our voyage of ex-
ploration toward complete under
standing and friendships"

CHICAGO, Jan. 16.-Every COM

baron and sponsor of the Chicago

The utility baron said he hoped

Respect Others Rights

But when once their rights have
been secured they have been al
most equally solicitous to respect the
rights OF others. Their chief efforts
have been devoted to the arts of
peace. They never have come under
the delusion of military grandeur.
Nowhere among these republics
have great military Establishments
ever been maintained for the pur-
pose Of overawing or subjugating
other nations.
1--WE all have nourished a COM
mendable sentiment of moderate
preparation for national defense,
believing that for a nation to be I'M
reasonably neglectful of the military
art, even if it did not invite and
cause such aggression as to result
either in war or in abject hunilia-
ton, it must finally lead to a dis
astrous disintegration of the very
moral fiber Of the nation.
"But it is one thing to be prepared
to defend our rights as a last ex-
tremity and quite another to rely on
force where reason ought to pre-
vail"

New World Republics to
Work Out Own Destiny
Says Havana Speech.
BY CARL d. GROAT,
United Press StaR Correspondent

HAVANA, Cuba, Jan. 16.-The
American republics must join to-
gether to work out their own des-
tiny in their own way" President
Coolidge told the Pan-American
conference here today.
In speech preaching the Golden
Rule, peace and democracy for the
western world, the President gave
what was generally regarded as a
new vitality to the Monroe Doc
trine.
At the same time, he declared
that the policies he outlined in
volved mo antagonism toward any
other section of the world or any
other organization"
These passages, largely viewed as
a friendly notice to the League of
Nations and the world at large that
the Americans will bind themselves
ever more closely together, without
outside interference, we're linked
with assurances that the Americans
intend to let justice, equity and re-
spect for each others sovereignty
prevail in all their relations.
