Relative UnknoWnS Slated
to Steer Party Through
Liquor Fight.
BY RAYMOND CLAPPER
United Press stan Correspondent

WASHINGTON. June 6-Ticklish
problems confronting the Republic
an national convention at Chicago
will be handled by practically a
complete change Of cast from that
which conducted the 1923 conyen-
ton.
Relatively new figures have been
selected to steer the proceedings
through the first real fight over pro-
hibition that the party has had in
years. IN addition the depression
has thrown new problems into the
lap OF the national conventions.
The expected denomination of
President Hoover and Vice-Presi-
dent Curtis. while disposing Of TWO
important uncertainties which hang
over most conventions. only leaves
the delegates more time to become
excited over issues.
Dickinson Bone Dry
Among the persons who will be
assembling at Chicago week from
today will be these ranking mem
bers Of the cast.
Senator L. J. Dickinson Of Iowa,
the probable temporary chairman
and keynoter. Bone dry, long a
leader in the farm bloc in congress,
he will attempt in one composite
rNFnssH ~ fuF
he believes to be Mr.. Hoover's views,
the general party views and his
own.
Representative Bertrand H. Smell
of New York is the probable perma-
nent chairman Of the house rules
committee. He was one of the ia
nous triumvirate which, under the
late Speaker Nicholas Longworth,
ran the house with an iron hand.
He is one Of the parliamentary ex-
perts Of the country. Smell will
have the job of gaveling the con-
ventiOn through its first prohibi-
ton fight Of consequence. This is
his biggest convention Job.
Scott Almost Unknown
Joseph L. Scott, Los Angeles at
torney who viii place President
Hoover in nomination is unknown
in national politics. although he did
some campaign speaking for Mr..
Hoover four years ago. It will be
his Job to present a glowing picture
of Hoover the man. and the states
man.
Charles L. Scott Of Kansas will
nominate Vice~President Curtis. He
has been a newspaper editor for
years, formerly was a member Of
congress and is now attached to
headquarters of the Republican ma
tional committee here.
Political celebrities and important
figures Of former conventions will be
on hand in large numbers.
Dawes TO Be There
Charles G. Dawes. president of the
Reconstruction Finance Corporation,
and former Governor Frank o.
Lowden of Illinois will be delegates
from Illinois.
William S. Ware of Pennsylvania,
who started the break to Mr.. Hoover
at Kansas City four years ago, will
be present again as chief of the
Pennsylvania delegation.
The most prominent woman in
the convention will be Mrs Mabel
Walker Willebrandt, the dry Joan
of Arc of 1923. but since then the
attorney for grape concentrate man
ufacturers.
Senator Borah probably will not
be there, depriving the convention
