Thursday, December 7, 1939 WASHINGTON Washington, Dec. s—With the organization by the foremost Re publican lexers of New York State of a "Dewey-for-President" campaign for delegates, and the yenlpg speech in that campaign made by the District Attorney of New York County in Minneapo- lis, the three-cornered battle for Ihe Republican Presidential nom nation is at last fully under way. Senator Arthur Vandenberg's organization committee has been actively at work for several weeks, proclaiming him as Michi gan's Favorite Son, and issuing impressive "literature" in his US half, with almost all of Michi gan's foremost Republicans, from the Governor down, as signa tories. Senator Toft's personal cam paign In the West, which has taken him and his politically-able wife to the Pacific Coast, has also been going on since the extra session of Congress ended. It has ihe blessing of most of the Ohio Vprty leaders, including Governor pricker, who was being talked of as a Presidential possibility him- Headachy, Logy?

Between Three Men As Washington political ob servers view the prospects from this point in time and space, the real battle for the nomination is between those three men. Each of them, it is expected, will go to the convention with a practically solid block of delegates from his home state. Dewey's will be the largest, Taft's the next largest and Vandenberg's third. Each will have a considerable number of delegates from other than their home states, the number of whom cannot as yet be estimated even approximately. No exper ienced observer expects any one of these three lading candidates to have a majority of delegates when the convention opens, but each will have enough backing >to be an extremely powerful factor in the final decision. Only one man can get the first prize, and he is not always the candidate who has the greatest strength short of a majority. Observers with long memories are harking back to the Repub lican convention of 1920, when it seemed a foregone conclusion that the nominee would be either General Leonard Wood or Gov. Prank Lowther of Illinois. The convention became deadlocked and when the nomination of either of the leaders became ut terly hopeless, the effort to find a candidate who would not be too objectionable for both Wood and Lowther to agree on him re sulted in the selection of the darkest "dark horse" in the con vention, Warren Harding. Having that episode in mind, some astute lookers-on are be ginning to look over the "dark horses" now in the Republican field. A three-way deadlock is less likely than one involving only two candidates, but it-is possible; and there are many Republicans who have their lightning-rods in readiness in case they might be useful. The present outlook is that many states will send delegations for "favorite sons" who will have no expectation of getting the] - : - ' : : T.'

Bridges, Mass achusetts' Gov. Saltonstall, Rhode Island's Gov. Vanderbilt, Penn sylvania's Gov. James, are among those who are expected to have considerable numbers of delegates if not solid state blocks, when the convention convenes. Delegation for Landon Kansas Is expected to send a solid delegation for former Gov ernor Alf Landon, who will be re membered as the Republican candidate for President in 1936. Representative James W. Wads worth, of New York, and Repre sentative Bruce Barton of the same state are most often spoken of as possibilities in it should turn out that Mr. Dewey cannot get the nomination and the New York leaders should be unwilling to throw their tremendous strength to either Vandenberg or Taft. Hovering over the whole Re publican picture is the shadow of former President Hoover. Mr. Hoover has no organization work ing for his nomination, he has made no public declaration one way or the other, and those in his personal confidence assert that he has no ambition or desire to run for President again. But his recent frequent con tacts with political leaders all over the nation, his public ad dresses and magazine articles and the quite general and def inite growth in Mr. Hoover's per sonal popularity and the public's respect for his opinions, look to some of the Washington observ ers as preparing the way for his selection to lead the Republican party once more, whether as the result of a deliberate effort on his part or as the result of a dead lock from which no other way out could be found to which the con vention would agree. Swinging Toward Opposition All of the concern, which al mo st amounts to excitement, about the next Republican con vention, is based upon the belief that the public's mind is swing ing toward the Opposition party, and that the right man with the right appeal whom the conven tion will nominate has a better than 50-50 chance to defeat any candidate whom the Democrats may put up. There are many ob servers here who think that does not hold good if Mr. Roosevelt runs again, but the number who think he will not ask for a third term is increasing. As among the three leading Republican candidates, Senator Vandenberg is the first choice of .those who know him best through their association with him for ten years in the Senate. But this idea is partly based upon the fact that Mr. Dewey, who still ranks first in polls of Republican voters, has not yet developed his ideas of na tional and international policy in public addresses. He has just be gun to do that. President Lincoln. President Garfield and President McKinley were born on Friday—the un lucky day.
