Hoover Boosted

Hoover’s name was being uttered
at republican rallies all over the
country in a not unusual swing to-
wards renomination of the incum-
bent, but heartened by the disturb-
ance in democracy’s camp.

Several democratic leaders, active
in trying to head off the Raskob
program, continued their assertions
that embracing such an issue would
amount to throwing away the 1932
chances of the party, though other-
wise they appeared excellent.

Some republicans agreed with
them. Out of a Texas meeting of
party leaders came a prediction
that the G. O. P. would have easy
sailing as a result of the democratic
row. That group yesterday endorsed
without qualification President Hoo
ver’s record and called for his re-
nomination. So did the state con-
vention of the party in Michigan.
