WASHINGTON. April 16 You msy
have noticed that Washington waa
not one of the placea rutted by Mr-
Hoover on hla
highly publicized
tour. T h I a waa
not an oversight.
K he came here,
he would not
have many placea
to go.
The fact la moat
of the Republi
can authorltlee
here are Irked
every time they
pick up a news
paper and find

name In it. They know he la not a.
presidential possibility and he knows
It, but apparently no one else does.
You can mark It down In your lit
tle notebook that Mr. Hoover's candi
date for the next Republican presi
dential nomination la Ogden Mills,
the former secretary of treasury.
Tou may also not that, while Mr.
Mllla Is probably the most brilliant
and capable man In the Republican
party, he haa no more chance of get
ting the nomination than you have.
The smartest Republican author
ity from the midwest aaya President
Roosevelt would carry hla section to
day. He thinks the preaident haa
lost ground, but not enough.
Incidentally his one-two-three pick
for the Republican nominations la
(1) Col. Prank Knox, 2 Senator
Vandenberg, (3) Governor Landon of
Kansas.
Republican authorities here have
been astounded at the amount ot
talk about Knox In the middle west.
He Is weak In Washington, but that
may be to hla credit.
The smartest Republican strate
gists privately consider the coming
Kansas City meeting a mistake.
It is always bad strategy for an
opposition party to try to draw up
an affirmative list of principles. The
truth la that those who will meet
In Kansas City are agreed on only
one thing; namely, that they are
against the new deal. If you go be
yond that Into a list of particulars,
you will find there are as many dif
ferent viewpoints among the pro
posed Kansas City delegates as there
are delegates.
The promoters of the meeting
know this now. For that reason, you
need not expect much from the
leathering, despite all the ballyhoo
about it.
Note The eastern wing of the
party (Hllles, Rorabach, etc.) had no
connection with the arrangements
for the meeting, regardless of stories
now going around to the contrary.

todey at the Truesdnle hospital.
SANTA MOXIOA, Calif.,
(April 13. Well, the papers
were nil savins: "The fute of
.Europe will be decided thin
week nt Stresn, Italy." I have
never remembered in my whole
long life of ever picking up a
paper where there wasn't some
where in it, "The fate of Eur
ope is in the balance."
It looks to me like Europa
hadn't got any fate. They go
from one mess to another. It's
been cut up, subdivided, resold
and resulxlivided, let and sub
let. Europe is just like a bunch
of checkers on a checkerboard.
One minute the reds are in the
kinK row. The next minuta
somebody is jumping over 'em.
Yours,
fix
