That was all, but It was enough to send a thrill through the senate chamber crowded with Senators who remembered the powerful Influence the Idaho orator had In the ,1028 pampalgn. . 1 .

Borah .In Tight Place "Since by this support of Mr. Hoo ver on the theory that he supported the 18th amendment and his op position of the Dcmlcratlc candidate on the ground that he proposed nul lification, I ask him how he stands. Will he support President Hoover as an advocate of the 18th amend ment or as a nulllfer of the consti tution?" Does the Senator ask me If I will support Mr. Hoover?" Borah asked. 'Yes," Lewis replied. I will- not," Borah then said, and resumed his seat.

Borah said he would confine his remarks to the prohibition plank be cause tho platform as a whole was Inadequate" and "foil dead at tho feet of the American people."

Ana me in creasing demands of the people over burdened with the depression. Turning to the plank he choso to discuss, Borah said It was "clear that a majority of the members of the con vention were for repeal of the eighteenth amendment, naked re peal." There were in tho convention, he said, 204 delegates from the Demo cratic states which will not send Re publican electors to the electoral college and more than 300 federal officeholders who voted as they deem ed It "politically expedient." "Tho two who had most to do with the drafting of the plank." Borah sold, "were two members of the cabinet, both of whom are open ly and uncompromising for repeal." He added he referred to Postmas ter General Brown and Secretary Mills. Fes Interrupt Senator Fess of Ohio, retiring chairman of the Republican national committee, Interrupted to say: "I don't think you want to say Mr. Brown opposed the eighteenth amendment." , Borah said he had talked with Brown a month ago and added he would show he was for repeal In the convention. 1 "Mills, who had most to do with shaping the plank, has been an open advocate of repeal for years," Borah added. "It Is clear the convention was overwhelmingly for repeal of the eighteenth amendment. "If the Republican party's voice was heard in that convention then the Republican party Is for repeal of the eighteenth amendment. "Then why did they not declare for naked repeal?
