The Hoover tbought, tossed Into the middle of eddying discussions over party policies and strategy, has stimulated discussions over party lnrlrhln And "whither are we drifting" among the Republican e ecutlvea, the national committeemen and women, and the state and coun ty chairmen. Survey Made 1 cnuntrv-wlfta fiurvev hv the Associated Press today brought ex pressions from leaders ox tne party In 25 states.

He believes organization Dy precincts su perlor. RMpnl Hoover Lead It was apparent from some replies that a feeling exists in some quarters that the holding of such a gathering on the Hoover say-so might project the former nresident into actual party leadership. fiftlrf Honrv fi. Caufleld. of St. Louis, last Republican governor of Mis souri: "I do not think It Is advisable for blm (Hoover) to take the leadership in uinc anv nartv meeting. He Is a very fine man, but I don't think at this time he has tne commence t.h nnhllc."

Let Democrats Alone Keep the party, they said, on the bed-rock of Its fundamental prin ciples: let the Democrats alone and stay away from movements to change the name or principles of the grand old party. Perry W. Howard, national com mitteeman from Mississippi, said. "1 am opposed to the pre-conventlon. "I am opposed to any reorganiza tion of the party or change of Its - anv coalescence with any group that will In any way affect Its fundamental principles. -Motional committeemen and women who said they agreed with the Hoover notion, at least in principle, -ed Ned Crelghton and Mrs. wllma Hoyal of Arizona: Harrison E. Spang ler of Iowa; Hugh Butler of Neb raska; Harvey 0. Jewett, Jr., of South Dakota; J. Will Taylor of Tennessee, and George w. Snyder of Utah. Like Mr. Howard. W. David Tllgh man, Jr., of Maryland, chairman of the Republican state central commit tee, used no diplomatic language in expressing opposition. Said Mr. Ollghman: "I don't look with favor on the proposal for a na tional meeting, as I feel It would be of no real value to the party at pres ent. I think that Chairman Hamilton is proceeding in the right manner In having groups of leaders for confer ences." Maternal Instinct Strom In Monkey OKLAHOMA CITT. Sept. S.

STATES ILL SUBSTi IN GAME RESTi WASHINGTON. Sept. 8.-H7FV-The wildlife restoration act. signed Thurs day by President Roosevelt, author izes annual distribution of some $2. 760.000 to the states that agree to cooperate. Each state Is required to adopt assenting legislation, but any gov ernor, until after adjournment of the next regular legislative session, may give his state's assent by executlvo order. The measure does not levy new taxes, but provides for distribution of existing taxes on sportsmen's equip ment to the various states on the basts of area and number of hunt ing licenses sold. States and the federal government, through the sec retary of agriculture, are to coop erate In using the money for wild life conservation projects. No state may receive more than $150,000 a year under the act, and a minimum of $15,000 la provided for any state that will set aside $6,000 for the work. The states are to set aside with these maximum and mini mum exceptions, one-third as much in state funds as they receive from the federal government.

Economic Experts Tell Washington, London That Nippon Will Be Bled White by Outlay in Far East By peWITT MacKENZIE NEW YORK, Sept. 3. (AP) On the basis that It's an 111 wind which olows nobody good out of the dis turbing 81 no - Japanese hostilities, economic experts are trying to solace Washington and London with the prediction that the Nipponese are headed for a financial disaster which will render them impotent for many years. It certainly would take a load oft many American and British minds If the Japanese were compelled to go and sit down in a corner for a while and stop throwing tear-gas bombs Into the camp of the western world. Many Blessings. . Among other things, Uncle Sam and John Bull would be more than glad to be able to move about In the Far East with the same free dom as of old, without danger ol having their toes stepped on by the smiling but ambitious Japanese. Lovers of peace would like to see a slackening of the Anglo-American-Japanese naval competition which Japan is charged with forcing. And money-minded tradesmen would be most happy to get rid of Japan's disastrous competition In cheaply manufactured goods. The Idea, right or wrong, that the west would benefit In considerable measure from the economic weaken ing of Japan Is not new. America and England begtm to note back at the time of Japan's invasion ox Manchuria In 1931, that the more the Japanese poured their gold onto the thirsty plains of northern China, the less the west had to fear in every way from the Mikado's domains. Danger or Clash Fade. The dangers of a clash between Japan and America or England re ceded as the cost of Japanese glory In the Far East increased. Despite the fact that she has been In the throes of a financial crisis. Japan has gone all out In her mili tary expenditures In China. The Chinese estimate that the Tokyo government is spending $5,000,000 S day In the campaign and the Jap anese public long ago began crying out against high taxes and the cost of living.

Students Don tit Miracles BELOIT, Wis. (UP) A majority of students at Belolt college go to church, but they do not believe that God worked miracles, a survey re vealed. Out of 412 students who turn ed In answers, 378 reported they be lieved the creation of the earth was a geological process while 68 were "content to let it remain a mystery." ' Chipmunk Too Crafty THREE RIVERS, Cal. (UP) To make sure he would not lose his au tomobile key while on a fishing trip. J.

(UP) Clerks In the marriage license bureau are learning that it takes all sorts of persons to make a world. For Instance, among recent license applicants were a twister, a trlcholo glst, a flask man, and a boner. And that, the clerka reported, Is only a starter. Othera who have applied for licenses have 11 r-ted their occupations as a topper, a legger, a looper, a paint filler, a salad girl, and an egg-breaker. Those are only a few of the unusual occupations in a metropolitan area that come to light In a marriage bureau, clerks said. Upon questioning, the bureau found that a twister Is a hosiery worker performing one specific task. The trlcholcgut explained that he prac ticed trlcholcgy and walked away before a puzzled clerk could question him further. The dictionary revealed that trlchology is "the science of treating hair." No one In the bureau la certain what It Is that a flask man or a paint-filler does. Toppers, legger. and loopers axe connected with the hosiery business. Harry Wilcox, a license clerk, said he envlee most of all the egg-breaker. She explained that she does nothing but break eggs In a bakery, A coll cleaner, Wilcox said, keeps the colls clean which connect the beer barrels with the tavern spigots. A coll winder explained that he works In a factory where armatures are made. Most surprising of all to Wilcox was to find that an enrober has nothing to do with clothing. He works In a candy factory where he enrobes creams with chocolate. A boner said he was employed In a packing plant, boning meat. The license bureau wasnt real sure about a shovel-engineer, but some of the clerks thought he might be a dltch-dlgger. A wire-puller said he worked for the telephone company while a rigger explained that he la one of the men sent out to set up heavy machinery which has been delivered In pieces. In the laundries hand -finishers are Important employes. They work at the Ironing boards. . - Togglers and lackers ply their trade In the tanning Industry.
