It Is rumored in democratic circles, and this explains why Oswald West is turning his at tention to putting Herbert Hoover on the primary ballot. Aside from C. S. Jackson, the closest friend McAdoo has in Oregon, is Mr. West, and if Mr. McAdoo intends being' a candidate for the nomination, Mr. West would be the last man in the state to try to line up a delegation which would be against the late director of railroads. . With Mr. West assuming the active role he is taking in the Hoover boom, ; he is acting as leader for a consider able percentage of the federal office holders, and a large number of the men who are recognized as among the leaders of democracy in Oregon Because these influential leaders are lining up behind Mr. Hoover there is a suspicion lurking in the minds of the lay democrats, the common or garden variety of partymen, that Pal mer, Gerrard. Cox and other prospec tive aspirants will receive a cool re ception from the reputed leaders when their boomlets are started here. Hoover Sentiment Helped. Also, there is an impression that possibly the administration is not averse to Mr. Hoover. Mr. West stands pretty well with the adminis tration, via Mr. McAdoo, and the fed eral officeholders who rarely ever make a move that misht be consid ered offensive in the eyes of the pow ers at Washington, are helping the Hoover sentiment without ostenta tion, so this lends color to the impres sion that Mr. Hoover may not be ob jectionable to Mr. Wilson. William Jennincrs Bryan is consid ered as backing- Mr. Gerard, and Mr. Gerard telegraphed the Jackson club Ust month that Mr. Hoover is a good man, so the Bryan and Gerard follow Ir.g may line up in Oregon to capture ten delegates for Mr. Hoover. Any way, It was part of the programme conceived and nut into action two months ago to send to the national convention at San Francisco, delega tions for Hoover from Oregon, Wash ington, California, Idaho, Nevada, Missouri and Iowa. The first start tcward delivering the goods In this compact is being made in Oregon with the petitions to place Mr. Hoover's name on the democratic presidential primary ballot. The big idea is to stampede the democratic convention for Mr. Hoover. - . Candidates to Emerge. Tn due time a number of democrats Will offer themselves as candidates for delegates, and among them will be men who are inclined toward Mr. Hoover. Bert K. Haney, the first to announce himself as a candidate for delegate-at-large, is convinced that Mr. Hoover is the right man for the democrats to name for president. It is also possible that, to carry on the Hoover propaganda, Mr. West will also submit himself as a candidate for delegate. Mrs. M. L. T. Hidden, the only wom an candidate thus far, has not been Identified as being a part of the Hoover machine now being carefully assembled in Oregon. Since the Hoover boom appeared, talk of other democratic possibilities has virtually ceased, for Hoover makes a strong appeal to many mem bers of the state central committee. to the Jackson club, to federal offi eers and prominent leaders. DemO' cratlc sentiment continues to expand for Mr. Hoover, who in his own de fense says he Is not a democrat nor an aspirant for the nomination. CHARITIES PLAN ONION DUPMCATIOX OF WORK IS BE ELIMINATED. TO Representaivcs of Various Bodies 'Hold Meeting in Chamber to Discuss Plans. Plans for unifying relief work of the various bodies engaged in charit able effort in Portland were formu lated at a meeting held yesterday at the Chamber of Commerce at which were present representatives of the Salvation Army, Volunteers of Amer ica, Pacific Coast Rescue and Pro tective association. Catholic Women's league, together with county officials who have to do with this class of work. Ben Selling was chairman of the meeting and among those who participated were County Commis sioner Hoyt' and Judges Tazwell and Kanzler. It was the consensus of opinion that a central clearing organization for charities should be organized that would facilitate the relief of needy persons by eliminating duplication of effort and check on the efficiency of the work done. For financing the plan a committee of three was au thorized, which Chairman Selling was Instructed to name and of which he is to be the chairman. Commissioner Hoyt recommended that the welfare bureau at the court house be utilized as the headquarters of the organization. IDAHO CONVENTION' SET REPUBLICAN'S TO MEET APRIL 2 8 IX POCATELLO.
