THE OREGON DAILY JOURNAL, PORTLAND, FRIDAY, MAY 7, 1920. HOOVER THREW THE PRESIDENCY i AWAY, SAYS N. Y. WORLD v."1 By Fred S. Ferenson (Cnitod New, g(ff Correspondent. 1 New York, May 7. A more In tensive "personal worker's" cam paign for the nomination of Herbert Hoover at the Republican national convention may now foe expected, as a result of the marked victory scored Sy Senator Johnson over the former ".od administrator in i California. ; To the .numerous queries that came to the 'Hoover headquarters! here today as to whai Hoover "would do now" in view of tbe outcome of the first .real test of! his strength ' in Ithe West, the Jreaponse was , that he "would continue f f Aaintt ' "Hurt what Vi . tt.jt tMn "rlnlnv frtr the past six. months.", ! HOOVER FORCES EXCOCBAGED The leaders of the Hoover Republican clubs are encouraged rather ' than , dis ' couraged by the California results,: and believe that they can go a long , way between new and June 8 in developing sentiment that will make Hoover a : strong factor at Chicago. : Some of Hoover's best friends admit that his announcement i early in April that he was an out-and-out Republican, nd that he would not accept the nomi nation of - any other, party, was a po litical error. One of the best cards he held was the ever lurking possibility that if the Republicans! did not nomi nate him the Democrats might make him their candidate. MORE IS CHARACTERISTIC They admit that when he removed -this fear from those factions in the Republican party opposing him, he. lost ground. But, they declare, this was a typical Hoover step. Ie may not have been good politics, but lit was playing the game square, with all of the cards on the table, as Hoover, saw It. The Democratic New York World, , the first big paper 1n Ithe country to declare for Hoover. 'on any ticket." today asserts editorially that when Hoover ceased to be an "independent progressive" and entered . the Republi- can primaries in California, he ''practically- threw -away the presidency." "As the matter now stands," says the World." "It ts eonceivablo- that the Re publican f politicians in the; conflict , of factions' may find themselves in -a sit uation in Chicago ;in which they will take Hoover, but jthey i will, take him on their,.,own terms, not on his terms. MAT REJECT HIM '' j " V ' ' ' ' ' "It is far more likely1, however; that they will not take him at all, and that another alliance iof Republican radi cals . and reactionaries I will deal with him in the national convention "as the Johnson-Crocker alliance dealt ."with hfm in the California primaries. The Hoover campaigners will now go back to their first plan ; of action, how ever. Work of organising. Hoover clubs will be' intensified, women workers will he actively enrolled, and it will be a ': town-to - town, -neighborhood - to - neigh- borhood. and on down 1 to a house-to- nouse canvass ior Hoover Daciwra. HAS FEW DELEGATES The number of Hoover delegates in the convention will, of course, amount to nothing. By the time the conven tion is called he may have a handful but "hardly more.-" ' The Hoover campaigners.'howeVer. are confident that General Wood cannot be nominated and are equally confident that Senator Johnson's uncompromising stand on the League of Nations -wilL prevent his nomination. - , j i There must consequently be a com promise. And by yards, and yards of petitions, by thousands of telegrams and by other means' .of showing the num ber of Hoover -voters jirt the country, his boomers hope, to convince the-convention that Hoover is 'the logical -man to name. ' ; ' - -': "., " They recognize that ilf such a cam paign is successful they will be show ing something entirely inew in politics. But they see the bitter fight that is hi prospect between the Penrose and John son wings of the party, , and they sUll "have. hope. s . ;,;. - was telling him that he would be nomi nated in Chicago on the third . ballot, before the roll call had even got down to New York.

''.:""' His formal statement, issued after a conference at which Hitchcock, Colonel Procter and Thomas W. . Miller were present a conference, he said, to "talk things over" was to Ue effect that after getUng together and mapping out plans for ; the' --future campaign, his leaders were sorry that reports had been cir culated on any 'lack of cooperation in the Wood campaign and that the organ isation would have no further misunder standings.
