For both Smith and Hoover, the
present week has been one Of prepa-

familiar ground. Choosing to begin
his real campaigning almost within
hail Of the sidewalks Of New York,
Hoover will speak Monday at New

other nearby New Jersey cities. On
Tuesday Smith will begin a western
swing with a speech at Omaha.
Hoover's week at Washington has

RUNNING MATE
PROBLEM STILL
BOTHERS C. 0. P.
Pershing and Dawes Head
Long List of Possible
Candidates.
BY LEO r. SACK

KANSAS CITY, June 14.-Cam-
paign managers for the numerous
vice presidential candidates con-
tinued their efforts today as the
convention met for what may be it's
last session.
With Herbert HooVer's nomination
but matter of hours the only I'M
certainty was who will be chosen
as his running mate.
Talk Pershing
Prominently mentioned are Gen.
John j. Pershing, Senator George L.
Moses of New Hampshire, the per-
manent chairman of the convention,
and Vice President Dawes, accord
ing to informed politicians. Others
in the group of aspirants have
strong backing.
Friends Of General Pershing are
ardent in their support of him. SEN
ator Moses stock has risen several
points as result Of his speech &C
cepting the permanent chairman
ship of the convention.
Moses is known as one of the best
Democratic baiters in the Senate
and he made a Enthusiastically
snappy assault on the opposition.
The delegates we're pleased.
Opposition to the denomination of
Dawes has developed in influential
quarters. He is willing to accept
the job, leaders have been informed
but question has arisen whether he
would be acceptable to Hoover and
whether he would not hurt the
ticket.
Dawes ReactiOnary
Another objection given con-
sideration is President CoolidgeS
i'll feeling toward Dawes because of
his opposition to the administration
Further, Dawes is regarded as a re-
dictionary and has worked with the
anti-Hoover coalition.
Senator Edge of New Jersey, SEN
ator Arthur Capper of Kansas,
Hanford MacNider,. former Ameri-
can Legion commander, Repre-
sentative Hamilton Fish of New
York, Alison Houghton, Ambassador
to Germany, Representative John
@. Tilson of Connecticut, Repub-
lican leader of the House, and Col.
Henry w. Anderson Of Virginia, are
among others mentioned.
