merce.
Mr. Burton stated that he found con-
siderably more enthusiasm for Mr.
Hoover than he actually had anticipated,
and that while not caring to make any
definite prediction at this time he is
inclined TO think that the latter will re-
Ceive a vote in the Ohio primaries far
beyond the fondest hopes Of the Hoover
supporters. Mr.. Burton did say that IL
Is generally conceded in the State tina;
Mr.. Hoover will succeed in obtaining at
least half Of the Ohio delegation 10

said today that he is seriously consid-
erinR making several more speeches be-
tween now and the primary One of
these speeches will be in Springfield
Ohio, which section Mr.. Burton said is
showing considerable interest in Secfe,
tary Hoover. He went so far as to MAKE
the prediction that Secretary Hoover
would probably carry that district de-
spite the fact that it is represented in
Congress by Representative Brand, ar
dent supporter of Senator Willis. and
who recently voiced his opposition 10
Mr.. Hoover's candidacy in a debate In
