was made on September % by bag
carrying 500 pounds of mail. The
danger of q balloon falling into the

controlled by attaching chunk Of

CAPITOL HEARS TWO '36 BOOMS:
 FISH AND F. ). R.

WASHINGTON, June 21.. - The political conventions of '36 still are quite distant, but the blooms for President" have begun.
 There's a '.McCarl for President movement started among Republi- cans in Nebraska for the Comptrol- Ter General of the United States and the former Secretary of Sem ator Norris. The Hoover situation remains very oig question mark, to say nothing of Wadsworth, Mills, Shell, Steiwer, Vandenberg ct. al.
 As matter of fact. Pat Hurley, Secretary of War in the Hoover ad- ministration and himself some thing of figure in Republican politics, is credited with the observ- ation that he is about j.'the only adult in c. O. P. who is not a candidate.
 Insofar as Washington is con- cerned, however, there are only two out in the open. One, of course, is Franklin D. Roosevelt. The other is a member of the House who re- presents MT. Roosevelt's own con- gressional district in Congress = Hamilton Fish, Jr.
 The Fish Boom
 The Fish for President" boom was started last Marsh by Harold Knutson of Minnesota, member of the all-powerful House Ways and Means Committee and senior mem Der in the House from west of the Mississippi River.
 Knutson didn't stop at merely tossing his New York colleaguei 1 hat into the 1886 presidential ring with the customary. T know of no one who has broader appeal to all elements and with him I am satis- fled we can sweep the country" He started to work.
 On Capitol Hill he is known un- officially as Fishs campaign man. ager. In his office he is ready and eager at all times to talk about his candidate and his chances of cap turing the Republican nomination next year. He'll even tell you "of the record" just where he thinks Fish is strongest and weakest by states.
 Not Ambitious
 So far as is known Candidate" Fish has done nothing to dis courage Campaign Manager" Knut- son. His views on the subject were set forth in detail, in an in- teryiew he gave about a month after Knutson tossed his hat in the ring, at Omaha, Nebraska. Said MT. Fish then:
 T might be a candidate for president in the next national elec- tion if the call for me to run were made on the basis of patriotic duty. -s7-------- 7r--s '-------------
