TOE PimJADELnilA INQUIRER, SUNDAY MORNING, FEBRUARY 25, 1934 a i 3 G. P. Insurgents vi nuiw jjukumi, and o. Arthur Capper, Liberal of Kansas, who was BmonK th'iMr'' Emulates Ancestor 1 CI SESSION fore formulating lt campaign platform, national headquarters will proceed. Independently, with its own mode of old-faahloned direct campaigning on the theory that this is what the country expects of the minority party.

close enough to the Roosevelt administration to hope to benefit by the President'! popularity If It continues. Await Analyst! The Joint Congressional committee Is the centre group, which hopes "JT i'i Senator Hastings, presiding as host, spoke only briefly, emphasizing that it waa a personal tribute to Mr. Wheaton. At the same time he touched on the campaign plan announced in a public statement yesterday by Senator Hastings and Chester C. Bolton, of Ohio, chairman of the House Campaign Committee.

Everett Sanders, chairman of the Republican National Committee, was not present; neither waa Bennett Gordon, for years the reserfrch director of the Republican National Committee and author of the pointed pamphlet attacks on the Roosevelt administration, which have been issuing spasmodically from Republican national headquarters. 3 if a BONNIWELLPAPERS OUT Petitions for Judge Eugene Bonniwell as a candidate for the Democratic nomination for Governor were circulated In Philadelphia and other parts of the Btate yester day. Bonniwell is going into the pri mary campaign opposing judge Charles D. Copland, of Westmore land county, and George H. Karle, III, of Haverford, picked for Governor by the Oulley-Van Dyke leadership and Indorsed by the Democratic State Committee.

Copeland's candidacy is associated with the Senate ambitions of Roland 8. Morris, former Ambassador to Japan, who li opposing Joseph F. Outfey for this nomination. The Ouffey-Earlc ticket has been under fire. Independent Democrats charging that It represents an attempt to deny members of the party the right to pick their own to be able to go Into the campaign on a platform broad enough to hold "any reasonable Republican." This platform would be developed on the basis of an analysis and cor-lalation of the findings of the 3760 research bureaus in the United States.

The analytical work and production of findings would be done by a special research bureau under the direction of Sydney Brooks, for years head of a similar bureau for the International Telephone Telegraph Company. The House campaign committee of 20 and the Senate campaign committee of nine have unanimously Indorsed this program centring around a research bureau. The Senate committee include! Senator Gerald P. Nye. insurgent Republican, Mr.

dordon will continue as the research director of the national committee to that end. The national committee and the Joint Congressional committees, officials said, will go their own ways, prepared, it necessary. to pursue separate courses toward the same objective. In view of this division In the Republican high command, with former President Hoover avoiding direct political Involvement, the party at first glance appears to be going into the campaign spilt mree ways. With the 'position of the national committee as a whole undetermined, national committee headquarters reflects the attitude ol the party extreme right wing The insurgent Republicans represent the party' extreme left wing.

An advocate of a direct and Immediate frontal attack on the Roosevelt administration, Mr. Gordon has been offered no place In the new campaign organization. While the Joint Congressional committee awaits the findings of a highly systematized research bureau be 1 Ik i mil ill aaa. KWHWI a matt wmmt fl V3 on EvinrG- Ready Monday!

Republican Revival Seen as Vare Quits Continued From lint Page Of fact It has never been the policy of the City Committee as such to indorse primary candidates. The Mme result was reached by the members entering Into their own agreement on slates. in anopunij ine war bonrd or whnt Citv Chairman Hazli tt prc- iers can me "advisory committee" system, the orwinizitlon at least conceded the failure rf a dictatorship vested in a chieftain who, because of illness.

Is uimlile to take his place with the troops In the field. Since 1928, when he was stricken with paralysis, Vare seldom (rot within 60 miles of the organization he tried to direct. During the summer months his headquarters tent Is in Atlantic City. When winter comes he retreats to his Florida estate. As a result he lost personal contact with his cohorts and was forced to reply on reports submitted by lieutenant.

These, It Is admitted by those close to the organization, were generally colored to suit the whims of the person submitting his estimate of the political situation. nionR the main body of Republican voters here Is a disposition to wait further developments before getting excited over the retirement of Vare and establishment of the new system of leadership. Since the Republican rout In the election last November It has been apparent, to all who cared to fare the problem thnt the party in Philadelphia was sadly in need of overhauling. End Drifting rnliey But It was equally known that Ilazlrtt and others holding key positions In the organization were loath to make a move. They followed a drifting policy and the more they drifted the more hopeless became their plight.

yesterday that Vare has at last come to a realization of his own impotency to fullill the role of leader. Having reached that conclusion, it was related, he sent word to llnzlett stilting. In effect, that he lelt. he could carry on no longer. And with it came the suggestion that he was willing to step out of the picture and let others try their hand at directing organl tatlon affairs.

Group leadership exe'rclsed through an advisory committee la admittedly a temporary expedient. No one member of the organization felt, strong enough to take the helm and endeavor to sleer the machine. In some quarters, however, it Is felt, that out of the experiment there might emerge a capable leader. It was recalled that when Kd Vare died the organization had a somewhat similar problem on its hands. Generally shaking there was, at the time, little confidence In the leadership ability of William 8.

Vare. To meet the situation Churl-' H. Hall, the Trainers, the late inns C. Cunningham and others formed a war board. Vare was taken In.

Before long Vare came to the lop us the recognized leader and one of his first moves was to dissolve the board. (lark Still Kicks Hazlett will announce tomorrow the make-up of the advisory committee. Each Senatorial district is entitled to two members, with the larger district having three. Altogether the board will comprise about, 21 members. There is a possibility that Hazlett will go outside the Clly Committee in making his selection.

District Attorney Charles K. Kelisv )im been suggested lor membership, was apparent from the turnout nt the Hazlett dinner that the City Committee Is virtually united In its desire to bring the party back to a fighting looting. It was noticeable that Councilman John J. McKinley was back in the fold after a period of Insurgency. The outstanding malcontent is James C.

Clark, president of the county commissioners. He has been carrying on a feud with Hazlett and in consequence refused to attend the meeting. Not a few politicians were trying to reconcile the decision to refrain from slate making with a previously announced agreement under which Hazlett was to speak for Vare In conferences looking to the slating of a primary ticket. The latter circumstance was accepted as an indication that Vare is desirous of having a finger in the pie, even though it be Hasslett's finger injected at the Instance of Vare, If, within the next few weeks. Hazlett participates in any confer ence with up-State chieftains the voters, naturally, will take the Vare A.

co-ed, who, aside from being chosen as the molt beautiful tlrl in tlie school, it also, like her famous ancestor. a tidied horseback rider, that being her favorite tport, withdrawal with considerable salt. They will conclude that his retirement was a smokescreen, that he Is still up to his neck in the political game. Voters to Decide The decision in favor of a free and open primary Is regarded as sound political tactics at this stage of tlie proceedings. Republican leaders have before them the example of the Democratic Party, which Is rent with dissent ion because the Btate Committee, at the demand of Joseph T.

Ouffey, Indorsed a pri-1 msry ticket headed by Guffey for I ITnileH Ktate Kimiitnr nnH C1trun I H. Earle, ill, for Governor. It seems to be realized that any attempt to dictate the make-up of the Republicnn ticket will only result in Increasing factional feeling, end for this, if lor no other reason, party chieftains are disposed to keep nanus oil ana let the voters Uo their own choosing. Home Philadelphia leaders apparently feel that the hnnds-ofl policy of the organization adversely affects the Gubernatorial of General Edward Martin, chairman of the State Committee, and Lieutenant Governor Edward C. Shannon.

It Is known that both had been counting heavily on a Philadelphia indorsement. Friends of these candidates, however, relused to take thla doleful view of the situation. It la their contention that in a free-for-all race they will be as good as the next and are willing tu take their chances. One month from tomorrow, on March 2K, Is the final day for candidates to Ille their nominating petitions with the Becretury of the Commonwealth. Former Congressman Thomas W.

Phillips, of Butler, and Congressman Edward Lowber Stokes, have announced their candidacies for Governor, but others suggested are still awaiting developments. Nominating petitions have been lifted for State Treasurer Charles Waters and are being circulated some lip-State counties. He may announce his candidacy when he returns from Florida this week. Attorney General William A. Schnader is pushing his campaign here and there in the State.

Yes- terday he took it to Erie. Here In I Philadelphia Hazlett observed that "Hehnnder Would make a good candidate." Judge Harry S. McDevitt Is looking -over tho field while his papers nre being circulated under the direction of County Commissioner Clark. Judge Marlon Patterson, of Blair county, is recruiting support from the dairy fanners, While it was announced that there was no discussion of Guberna torial candidates during the course I the City Committee meeting, it was learned yesterday that nt least three were mentioned by name in a more or less incidental manner. These were Judge McDevitt, Lieutenant Governor Shannon and Attorney Genera) Schnader.

Virtually all these candidates have friends and supporters in Philadelphia. Some had been hope-lul of receiving organization in dorsement, But If the "hands off policy Is obtained tliev are doomed disappointment, it is likely, however, that some of these aspirants will be supported by groups within the organization. If. tlie free-for-all race a candidate looms as the likely winner, he may lmd himself supported not nnlv by the enure Philadelphia organization, but by the State group well. Nominating petitions for Governor Pinchol as a candidate for the Kcpuuiicnn nomination for United States Senator will be in circulation this week, it was said yesterday at Ilarrlsbiirg.

The Governor, recuperating from shingles in New York. wiU return to the Capitol in ten days, his friends asserted. He will sign Hie petitions and then depart for furtJier rest in Florida. Senator David A. Reed will not formally declare his candidacy until early part, of next month.

He indicated during a recent visit Philadelphia.
