POINT TO HUSTON
ASNEXT CHAIRMAN
Political Forecasters Pick
Him as Next Leader of
Republican Committee.

BY the Associated Press.
Now that the date of the long ex-
pected meeting Of the Republican ma
tional committee has been set for Sep
TENDER 8, political forecasters in Wash
ington have become almost unanimous
In pointing to Claudius H. Huston of
Chattanooga, Tenn, as the next chair
man.
That general impression is growing in
strength despite that the latest word
from the White House Is that Ralph
Williams OF Oregon, vice chairman OF
the committee, and George Woodruff of
Chicago, as well as Huston and several
others are under consideration for the
post. {.
Served Under Hoover.
The strength of the Huston boom is
based on a number Of factors, not the
least Of which is his long personal
friendship with President Hoover, whose
wishes naturally will have the greatest
weight with the committee in making
its decision. He served under Mr.. Hoo
yer for time as Assistant Secretary Of
Commerce, was active in his pre-con-
vention and presidential campaigns, and
is understood. Furthermore, to be IA
vored by majority of the committee
membership If his name is presented.
Still another consideration regarded
as pointing t othe choice of Huston is
the knowledge that he was advanced
from the Craftsmanship shortly after the
Kansas City convention. At that time,
however. Mr. Hoover wanted to honor
DIR. Hubert Work, the first of his cabi-
net colleagues to take an active part in
behalf OF his candidacy, with the lead
ershlp, and the latter accepted with the
understanding that, after the election,
he would be allowed to retire.
DR.. Work Fixed Date.
In issuing the call for the September
meeting DR.. Work fixed the date for
carrying out that plan, specifying that
the committee should consider the cleo
ton OF chairman and a second vice
chairman and the filling of vacancies
In the membership.
The call, issued at Denver, thus con-
frmed the resignation Of Mrs. Alvin =.
Hert OF Kentucky as second vice chair
man. Mrs. Worthington Scranton of
Scranton, national committeewoman
for Pennsylvania, is prominently men
toned to take over her task of leading
the women Of the party.
Among the existing and prospective
membership vacancies, considerable in
terest Is attached to those affecting
Georgia and Mississippi. Ben Davis,
Negro. failed Of reelection as national
committeeman for Georgia during the
Kansas City convention, and Percy
Howard, Negro committeeman for Mis-
