WON'T SPARE EFFORT

What Chairman Sanders and his 1ieutenants will do about i; must await still further cogita- tion.
 Some are urging that the whole Republican plan of campaign be revised, that MT. Hoover take the stump, very actively and reply more directly to Democratic at- tacks.
 Some are counselling greater concentration of pressure on the states where Republican prospects are best.
 It goes without saying that the party organization at least will throw in every last available ounce of effort.
 Renewed attempts will be made to draw former President Coolidge more actively into service. Will H. Hays has been commissioned to take matters in hand in his home state of Indiana. Postniast- CT General Brown is asked to do something about Ohio.
 All down the line, no Republi- can who might conceivably swing single vote over to Hoover will be deprived of the opportunity.
 The call for help has gone out, apparently, insistently.

MAINE SPEAKS OUT

Nothing like it has happened since 1912, and even that year pre- sents no exact parallel because with the Roosevelt bolt. many par ty workers realized the cause was utterly hopeless and just curled up and quit.
 In 1916 Republican anxiety waa largely allayed when it became virtually certain. before the cleo ton, that the East would go fol Hughes. The leaders were un- worried, and were surprised ou' of their skins when the Republi- can west reelected Wilson.
