bert Hoover, If nominated by tho
Republican puny as Its presiden
tial candidate, Is to make his cam
palgm largely through tho medium
of tho motion picture and radio.
Alan l'ox, one of tho New York
Hoover campaign leaders, who
made tho announcement after Mr.
Hoover had visited the city, said
the secretary approved the plan.
Motion pictures showing the sec
retary of commerce's uclivlUca In
Belgium reliof, Russian child feed
ing and MiKHtaulppI flood relief
work are to bo assembled into film
programs to givo pictorial presen
tation of his humanitarian work.
"We are goinff to fight this cam
paign with tho movies and tho
radio," Mr. Fox said, "The per
sonal appearance of a candidate
on tho platform is a tiling of tlio
past.
"Mr.- Hoover Is an admirable,
radio speaker and the pictures are
a knockout. There Is no "such op
portunity to depict in pictures tho
'career of any other candidate."
Mr. Iox said that the radio and
moving picture campaign did not
preclude the possibility of .Mr.
Hoover also making platform
speeches'-;- Ho said ho supposed
Mr. Hoover would follow the plan
of Presidents McKlnley and Hard-
ing and make a few important
speeches in public.
Tho plan has been conceived,
Mr. I'ox Intimated, with the idea
that (Jovernor Smith is to be tho
Democratic nominee and' with, tho
hope of counteracting the gov-
u,nu,"I adroitness on tho stump.
