On the Republican side. President Hoover continues to pile up delegate strength long after he has passed the number, needed to nominate, but life as a candidate is not all roses for him, at that. The pressure on him ;to approve this or that prohibition plank grows more and more Insistent as the convention date approaches. Within the week Republican modi fications have swept Ohio's primary for.-senator-ahd' governor; the Ameri can minister to Sweden, John More head, has appeared with state de partment approval before a commit tee of congress to advocate the Swed ish system, of liquor control, and -a somewhat similar scheme has been given public approval by Senator Da vid Reed of Pennsylvania, a stalwart of the stalwarts: There is no indication Mv Hoover is doing 'anything ' directly about this, but some very Important lead ers are working hard at it. At least some of them .have chosen to make the. first approach through the drys rather 'than the modif Icatlonlsts; ' to see how far the dry organizations will go, and try to draft ' a i plank; which will keep their support.
