Linked with Prize Boner

what makes LHS lued SO StdEtiluH is that Hurley is all loaded up with political liabilities. He be- came inextricably associated with the prize political boner of the cen- tury when he called out his troops to drive the bonus army from the capital before it reached the nerv- ous MT. Hoover in the White House.
 Feeling about Mir. Hurley on that account was still so strong last fall in his home state of Oklahoma that c. 0. F. leaders ganged together to keep Pat from following his announced intention of going down to cam paign for the party ticket.
 And, to crown 1t, here's Pat ad- hitting payments-as a lawyer. of course, and not as a lobbyist, as he'd have you know-of $1O0,0O0 from Associated Gas & Electric, companies in the f''power trust" with which even the other holding won't associate.

 Some observers would also add Senator L. J. Dickinson of Iowa. but many folks are unable to take "Dick" seriously on any count and they just bust out laughing when you mention him as a possible party nominee.
 Both Are Through
 Lucas and Hurley. incidentally, have something in common. They're still remembered here as two men who very conspicuously took the so-called rap for MT. Hoover.
 Hurley's political career was blasted by the bonus army epi- sode and hls subsequent ate ten,pts to defend 1t, wherein he acted at Hooyer's behest.
 Lucas was all set to become re- publican national chairman until, at Hoover's wish. he covered him- self with mud by Q secret. under- handed attempt to defeat Senator George Norris in Nebraska.

Washington, Aug. 13-Few re- alizod that the trim, dashing figure of former Secretary of War Pat Hurley, standing before the Black lobby committee and making a lot or fuss about the questions, was that of an earnest presidential candidate in whose stout heart hope never dies.
 Alr. Hurley's protests that he was being singled out because oi his republicanism reflected that inner ambition.
 He is a conspicuous example oi the way the presidential chiggei burrows under a mans skin, there to remain through the hosts last stages of decrepitude and senility
 Al in many similar cases. even his best friends can't persuade at- tractive Pat Hurley that he has no more chance of being nominated by the republicans than has the caretaker on his Virginia estate. Pat still thinks the lightning may strike.
