Herbert Hoover Issut d a statement here today in which he expressed surprise that 'under the "circumstances so large a vote should liave been cast in California for the delegates favoring my nomination." "For my friends, in entering my name, introduced no personal Issue but asked an opportunity to register a protest at Senator Johnson's extreme opposition to any league to prevent warand reduce armaments." said the statement. "With a group of amateur -4'lubs only a month old, they were of rour.se handicapped in opposing the regular party organization but the real .'situation is that the people of Call fornia have been much torn between loyalty and friendship to their senator tor his able rescue of the state during his governorship from vicious corpora tion control .and hi too narrow virion on our international necessities. The fact that In these circumstances more than a third of the ' party protested against this latter view should strengthen the support of the repub lican majority In the senate."
