Hoover when he died were his two sons, Herbert Jr. and Allan. Son of a small-town blacksmith, Mr. Hoover was orphaned at 10. He worked his way through college, became a top-flight engineer and, at the age of 28, a wealthy man.

He first gained public acclaim as organizer of mass relief for starving Europe during World War I. He entered politics as secretary of commerce under Republican Presidents Warren G. Harding and Calvin Coolidge. IN 1928 Mr. Hoover defeated Democrat Al Smith for the presidency.

It was a bitter campaign in which the nation held Smith's Roman Catholic religion against him. Mr. Hoover was a Quaker. Seven months after his in-auguration, Mr. Hoover watched the nation plunge into the economic abyss of the Depression.

His critics blamed him for the catastrophe and called him a "do-nothing" president. In 1932, Franklin D. Roosevelt easily defeated him, inaugurating the New Deal. Mr. Hoover left office in political disgrace, but if there was bitterness in his heart over the charges he concealed it.

The narrator, Raymond Massey, points out that Kennedy dreamt of an "honest, decent, law-abiding America." young inspiring leader is gone," Massey says. The implication is that corruption now extends from the White House on down. Meanwhile, Democratic sources were circulating transcripts of a story conference that took piace in Beverly Hills, on Sept. 22. At this meeting, the film, "Choice," was planned.

Russell Walton, public relations director of Citizens for Goldwater-Miller and one of the four participants, confirmed the accuracy of the transcript. It included quotes such as these: Walton: "We want to incite the people to feel that Lyndon Johnson is incapable of coping with these problems because of the Bobby Baker scandal, because of the Billie Sol Es-tes affair, because of the $14 million that was made while he was on the public payroll. "Therefore the purpose of this film then is to portray and remind the people of something they already know exists, and that is the moral crisis in America, the rising crime rate, rising juvenile delinquency, Thus, year upon year, step by step, he regained the affection of the nation. Long before his death a new generation of Americans looked upon him as an elder statesman, and even his most vitriolic enemies conceded his renewed stature. Mr.

Hoover displayed indomitable courage in another arena of life as, during the past 26 months, he fought against one serious illness after another. HIS ORDEAL began in the summer of 1962 when he withstood an operation for abdominal cancer. Then came sieges of anemia, internal bleeding, kidney hemorrhages and a respiratory infection. Not for 17 months had Mr. Hoover been able to leave his 31st-floor Waldorf apartment, which he once described as his "comfortable monastery." His last public appearance was in May 1963, when, against doctors' orders, he spoke at a reception for astronaut LeRoy Gordon Cooper Jr.

At 3:55 p.m. Saturday Mr. Hoover's nurse notified his personal physician. Dr. Michael J.

Lepore, that the former president had suffered a massive hemorrhage of the stomach and intestinal area. TRANSFUSIONS were begun at once. The bleeding eventually was arrested. But Mr. Hoover's internal organs began to fail and poisons spread through his blood stream.

He was in and out Hoover was a devoted public servant and he will be forever remembered for his great humanitarian work." In Gettysburg, former President Dwight D. Eisenhower said: "He has by his great service earned the gratitude of America and the entire free world. Everywhere, he was known as a friend of humanity. "Mrs. Eisenhower and I join the nation in grieving for the loss of a man who has meant so much to the republic, and to whom we give our deep affection and admiration." Barry Goldwater, Republican presidential candidate, described the former chief executive's death as a profound loss to the American people and to the cause of individual freedom and dignity throughout the world.

"Herbert Hoover embodies and came to symbolize the finest principles and qualities for which our country stands," Sen. Goldwater said in a statement issued at his Washington office. James Farley, the man who as Democratic national chairman helped Franklin D. Roosevelt defeat Mr. Hoover in 1932, spoke of the former President's "dedicated, unselfish" work on behalf of all people.

"IN HIS many years of public activity, he made a contribution to the well-being of mankind in many areas of the world," Farley said. tary junta mat overtnrew Diem last November.

He was restored to that position by Khanh after the August riots and had the main voice in naming 17 political and religious elder statesmen who are serving on the High National Council.

LEADING contenders for the post of prime minister are two noncontroversia) men whose past experience has been in foreign affairs rather than domestic administration. They are Ambassador to London Vu Van May, who resigned as Diem's foreign minister in protest against the president's handling of the Buddhist crisis, and Phan Huy Quat.

Nixon said in Augusta, Maine, that Mr. Hoover was "one of those rare individuals who lived to hear the overwhelming favorable verdict of history on his career." "FOR 60 YEARS he walked proudly with the giants of the earth and in the end won the affection and respect of millions of people all over the world," he added. Former. Gov.
