13 THE MORNING OREGONIAN, THURSDAY, APRTTj 1, 1920 DOVER BOOM HELD GRAFTILY arranged Veiled Hints of Past Months Recalled. Few SPONTANIETY IS DOUBTED Johnson's Manager for Oregon Predicts Defeat of New Aspirant la California. AN 2 artistic home wedding was i Margason, Henry Foster, Harold It is percolating in ntnt political Quarters that the Herbert Hoover presidential boom, instead of being spontaneous, has been carefully and craftily staged. There are indications In Oregon that the Hoover boom was Etewir.g for at least three months before coming to the surface, and that the machinery was wound up and set to start when word was given. As far back as last December, when Jir. Hoover was not supposed by the ceneral public to be a presidential possibility, there were men who said that they would support this presi dential aspirant or that other one. "provided Hoover isn't a candidate for the ' nomination." A somewhat curious chap who is interested In the fortunes of one of the avowed candi dates, jotted down the names of these men and wondered whether there ever would be anything to the Hoover whisperings. In February those on the list blossomed out as ardent ad vocates of Mr. Hoover, albeit at that time no one apparently knew his po litical affiliation and some of the democrats were laboring under the Impression that he would be with them. Within the past 10 days many of the men who last December hinted of the Hoover possibility have been coming to Portland. It is all circumstantial, but there is a. suspicion that someone was looking jifter the Hoover organization and building it up in Oregon without the outsiders, or the democrats, having the slightest inkling of what was to drop. Apparently, a similar gum-shoe campaign was being carried on for Mr. Hoover in other states, certainly In other Pacific coast states. Oregon Statements Simultaneous. Some of the men who were active In launching the Hoover republican club last Friday night were ap proached last December to support presidential aspirants, and they in variably hedged and said they would. providing Mr. Hoover was not a can didate. R. W. Kuhl of Medford and Kditor Pattersot. of Heppner came out simultaneously for Mr. Hoover in their papers about February 1, on the same approximate date that a score of Oregon republicans began spreading Hoover sentiment. One man who headed tne vvooa petition in central Oregon is now an ardent Hoover man, and has been called to Portland for a consultation. Uy piecing together fragments here and there, it looks as though the en tire Hoover boom was primed care fully and timed to be sprung' when it was. The activity in the demo cratic ranks was discouraged by Mr. Hoover wherever it appeared, but subsequent developments lead to the suspicion that "inside" information had been Issued to republicans friend- ly to Hoover, giving them a pro gramme to work on. This Informa tion, it is indicated, called for the formation of Hoover republican clubs everywhere, and there was evidently the promise made that at the psycho logical moment Mr. Hoover would is sue a statement classifying himself as a republican and placing mm as a receptive candidate for the presi dential nomination. Supporters "Drift In." In the week preceding Mr. Hoover's statement, published in The Orego- nlan yesterday, there have drifted Into Portland men from Curry, Coos, Clatsop, Harney, Jackson, Grant and other counties to receive instructions on the Hoover campaign. They were among those who were on the poll tical fence three months ago. The whole situation, so fa"r as Fortland and Oregon is concerned has the aspect of being staged and framed and is not the spontaneous uprising that might be supposed. It is said that Hoover buttons and the mem bership blanks for the Hoover re publican club were prepared some time before the meeting held at the library Friday night, and which was called by a gathering at the Univer ity club a few days before. The Hoover buttons materialized as if by Enaglc. Another feature of the Hoover cam paign is the inclination of the grain and food administration forces to be the backbone of the Hoover fight. The food administration ramified into every county in Oregon and into the cities. All of this machinery Is being ereared up for Hoover in Oregon, and, presumably, the same programme is junder way in the other states. Johnson's Manager Not Annoyed. Sanfield MacDonald. campaign man ager for Hiram Johnson in Oregon, is not dismayed by the advent of Mr. Hoover. He is far from being down hearted; he is not even annoyed that there is another Richmond in the field. "Any man who carries the stamp of presidential timber is entitled to as pire to the presidency," eays Mr. Mac Donald. "And the people are the ones who . do the stamping. Mr. Hoover claims California as his state. Mr. Johnson is a Californian. Therefore, California presents to the public two aspirants for the republican nomina tion. I predict that Mr. Hoover will be disposed of completely on May 4, "when the California .primaries are held. Mr. Johnson will' defeat Mr. Hoover so completely that the latter will be out of the race. When Cali- that of Miss Carolyn Simon, who became the bride of Milton A. Wurzweller at the residence of her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Nathan D.

Lawrence Cook and Oliver fornia rejects Mr. Hoover, how can the east accept him? Political conventions are partisan. Until the other day no one knew what party Mr. Hoover belonged to. He has said that he belonged to neither. Now he says he is a republican. Well, re publicans will,, remember that Mr. Hoover appealed to the voters of the United States to elect democrats to congress, when President Wilson made that appeal. Will a republican con vent! n feel kindly toward a man who has urged the election of democrats. as against republicans? "Disposal" Is Predicted. "I feel that Mr. Hoover's entrance s hurting Mr. Wood more than any other candidate, for I have seen men who were on the fence and presum ably leaning toward General Wood, now wearing the Hoover button. How ever, Mr. Johnson will dispose of Mr. Hoover in California next month," The active members of the Delta Gamma eorority will give a tea next Saturday afternoon at the residence ot Miss Mary Alta Kelly, 58 Laurel hurst avenue, from 3 until 6 o'clock.

OLD OFFENDER IN TOILS PAROLED PEXITEXTIARY PRIS ONER. AGAI" IX JAIL. John Weinberg, Under Five Years' Sentence for Larceny, Unable to Keep Out of Trouble. Women's Activities John Wemberg, a mechanic now on probation from the Oregon State penitentiary after receiving a five year sentence on a charge of larceny May 19, 1919, was fined $50 and ! seven days In jail by Municipal Judge Rossman yesterday on a charge of disorderly conduct. This sentence, which may mean that he will be compelled to serve out the previous sentence in the peniten tiary, was the result of an early morning joy ride with two companions in a car declared by the police to have been stolen. It was the third time that Wem berg had faced Judge Rossman on minor charges within the last few months. On previous occasions the judge had been won to clemency owing to the fact that Wemberg was on probation and it was declared that any sentence in the municipal court might mean that the man would be sent to the penitentiary. Weinberg's young wife was also used as a factor in the defense. "You are on the way to the peni tentiary and I can't stop you," de clared Judge Rossman in pronounc ing sentence. Wemberg was arrested after he and two companions. James Dunn, special deputy constable, and S. S. Corbin, street-car conductor, had wrecked a machine said to belong to H. S. Hamilton, 1177 East Davis street at the intersection of Milwaukie ave nue and Tolman street. Judge Rossman discharged the case against Corbin.
