CU1HBBREA3STJ EVENING TIMES, SATURDAY, MAY 9, 1931 cP-LEADERS THINK CURTIS CAN HAVE POST Some, However, Believe He Does Not Want Re-nomination For Vice-President BACK TO SENATE? ManyJThink Hoover's Running-Mate May Prefer His Old Position CHURCH NOTICES By RODNEY DUTCHER Washington, May 9 (NEA) comfort about political writing is that whenever you get tired writing about presidential politics you can turn to vice presidential politics. Hardyly any state Is so poor that It hasn't a candidate for a vice presidential nomination and plenty of reasons why its favorite son is the logical choice. Many states have potential presidents, too, but nowhere near as many as can produce they term the best men to strengthen a national ticket. Some states have several such candidates. Political writers usually are In deadly earnest when they discuss presidential possibilities, but everything goes -when it comes to the vice presidency.

For a long time back it has been common custom in pre-convention years for correspondents to light on some especially good friend in political life and give him a good boost as a likely vice presidential choice. Makes "Hero" Happy The practice doesn't cost anything. It makes a lot of people happy, especially the hero and his family. It's a good trick for a dull day when news is lacking. And the writer is always able to argue that the party is pretty sure to do worse when it actually does select the presidential candidate's running mate.

Also, there has been some serious discussion this year. The second Dlace on the ticket Is perhaps getting more attention than usual at this stage of the game because there is. not quite the usual uncertainty about the presidential nomination. The Republicans expect to renominate Hoover. Most Democrats are anticipant of or resigned to a presidential candidate from New York state, which leaves 47 states in -which to find the other fellow.

Republican leaders have hastened to spread' the word that Charlie Custic can have the vice presidential nomination again if he wants it. Many of them hope he does. Prefers Senate Activity One hears of Charlie's yearnings to get back in the Senate where lie can be more happily active, but conditions happen to be such that if he renounces the vies presidency next year so that he can run for the Senate again altogether too many people would seize on that as a sure sign that Curtis felt the party was likely to be licked and was merely going after a sure thing. The old warhorse has held public office for 47 years and no one thinks he is going to retire voluntarily.

E. Church South, there is plenty of vice presidential talk among Republicans, based on the possibility that Charlie doesn't want it. Mention of Governor Theodore Roosevelt of Porto Rico, Secretary of War Hurley or Hanford Mac- Niderof Iowa, our to Canada, seems rather inconsequential alongside the suggestion of Senator Arthur Capper of Kansas. It has been obvious lately that the Republican is worrying about the farmer. Capper is the administration Republican from an agricultural state who is most conspicuously identified with agriculture.

His farm publications circulate In several states and he appears to have held the esteem of farmers without joining the insurgent group. In the same election that returned a Democratic senator from Kansas last year over Henry J. Allen, Capper held his seat with a majority of 135,000. Other Republicans than those mentionaed have been suggested to succeed Curtis, but none seems as logical now as Capper. George street, Rev.

F. Baker May Have Chance Outside New York, most of the men suggested for the Democratic presidential nomination are really only vice presidential possibilities, if that. If one of them merits serious consideration at this time it would appear to be Newton D. Baker of Ohio. His nomination, barring a change In the present situation, presupposes a bad jam at the Democratic convention in which forces favoring Governor Roosevelt, Owen D.

Young and Al Smith would all be baffled. Neverless, Baker, Senator- Robert J. Buikley and Governor George D. three of distinctly be presidential considered as vice possibilities. Some prophets believe the Democrats are pretty sure to pick their man for the second place from.

Ohio, which in presidential years is one of those very important states. Vice presidential booms will be 1 developing during the next session of Congress, beginning seven months before the convention, and before that session is over Senator J. Ham Lewis, who was elected by such a tremendous majority in Illinois, may have maneuvered himself into an advantageous position. West of Illinois and south of Ohio the prospects for Democratic vice presidential aspirants don't seem so hot. B.
