"Dogs Of War" Called off?

Quite period of time has elapsed since the pub
lie ear has been assaed by the bolsterous euog1es OF
Mr. Hoover by Secretary of War Hurley, and the pub
lie credulity taxed by the marvellous achievements OF
the Executive III relieving depression reclted by
Assistant Secretary Of the Navy Jahncke Indeed it
must appear to the astute observers OF political
strategy that the dogs of war have been called OIL,
temporarily at least There has been comparative ST.
ence also the part of Of the other defers OF
the Chief perhaps for good and sufficient reasons.
1t was little too much to expect that any consider
able number Of people, especially those looking Tor
Jobs could be convinced that Mr. HOovers record to
date entitled him to membership in trio OF execu-
tiyes on equal terms with Washington and Lincoln.
1t must be great relief to the public in the in
terim to turn to the more or less naive utterances OF
Mrs Gam the accomplished official hostess Of the
Vice Presdent-himself an asprant for denomination
-on her oratorca tour to win the women voters, OF
to win them back likely to the standard bearer
of the tWoear garage sanitary plumbing and the alb
clifton of poverty
The Lady has AN advantage III that she does not
need to bother about issues that arise from the de
preston, now well into the third year She announc
ed early in her speaking campaign that President
Hoover could not be held accountable for something
that did not exist ergo, there being no depression,
there could be issues arising from depression Now
Net some contentious Democratic opponent come out
of hiding and disprove that,
It must not be inferred, however, that The
Lady has issue. She announced it III later speech.
The issue, as she it, is the reelection OF Her
DefL hoover ana from ner pOnN OF view WHO eau
say she is not Justified especially if the ticket be made
up as it was in 1923?
Thus The Lady with plain statement of facts
and ncontrovertble logic not only suppants for the
time being the clustering Mr. Hurley and Mr.. jain
exc, the Claim Agent Of the Hoover Administration,
but takes precedence them in the campaign Her
social precedence has already been established The
Vice President Of whom she is the official hostess,
is the official who by custom performs the social dut
les for the Administration He is, in fact the active
social leader Of the political Four Hundred at the Ma
tonal Capital His official hostess is of course, of
equal social rank The Vice President impressed this
fact upon the resident and visiting public in Wash
ington when he established the Gold Room in his Of
fcal suite and adopted the topper" his daily head
gear He has borne his social duties ably assisted by
his official hostess with forttude and There
fore most people will agree perhaps, that the official
hostess should become the First Lady of the Hoover
Campaign.
Who could be better equipped to go on tour
among the women of the country-nto the cities,
towns villages, hamlets and the farms-and in
truct them in their political duties than the official
hostess of the social leader of the Administration?
Ia way, the tour Of the eloquent and elegant
leading spokesWonan Of the party is without exact
precedent, but it is reminiscent of feature Of the
1916 campaign. That was a planned tour of the en-
4ire country by body Of women who as it turned
