ment in the conflict between Ex~
. President Hoover ar.d .Senator Bo-
jrah. That duel is not sd diferential
as the Lundon-Knox relatioriship
appears to be on the surface. For
jMr. H aver is frankly out to elimi-
! nate the senator as a possibility,
and Senator is just as frankly bent
Ion making things as unhappv as
.possible for the former President.
| I gather all this from the disserta-
,Uon of another anti-administration
pressman, who points cut that Mr.
[Hoover is bent on smoking out
Borah; that is. making the Senator
declare himself on such issues as the
question, inflation with refer-
to the soldiers bonus, and the
Townsend plan. The idea is that if
he can definitely commit the man
from Idaho to these things, it means
curtains for the latter in the Conser

Is the idea that Mr. Hoover wishes
to eliminate a rival aspirant, who
has attained rather unexpected sta- j
ture as a popular Republican candi
date? Is it possible that the line
old Liberal wants Mr. Hoover out
of the way. on the hypothesis that
the big money end of the G. O. P.
will take even a Liberal Republican
when the alternative is the re-elec
tion of Franklin D. Roosevelt? Natu
rally Senator Borah has a concrete
idea as to which Progressive ought
to be favored. Perish the thought!
Mr. Hoover has no personal ambi
tions: he only desires the restora
tion of the old Republican ideals, and
Senator Borah cares only for the
purging of his party of Wall Street,
domination.
This being the condition of the
minority party, the question natu
rally arises: when do they go from
here?
As my Republican colleagues in
the column business refuse to haz
ard a guess beyond the general one
that It means a dark horse has a

Position to prophesy, I win not un
dertake to be more definite.
It might be pertinent, however,
to suggest that, at under existing
circumstances the Republican nomi
nation will be as valuable as a last
election’s campaign poster, what
they may do is to improve the op
portunity to get rid of their most
disturbing element.
There is no possiblity of healing
the breach between East and West.
If Mr Hoover is denied thk time,
his insistence will plague them in-1
definitely. As to Borah, for a gen
eration he has been n thorn to the
stand-natters. To a large extent
these two keen each other alive as
sources of political irritation. It’s
too bad. from a Republican stand
point. that b-’th cannot be nominat
ed and so effect the killing of two
birds with one stone.
