Herbert Hoover in 192S, announced
Monday he would not support the
president for le-election on the plat
form adopted by the party conven
tion. Uorah's decision, which had
been impatiently awaited by repub
lican chieftains, was given to a sen
ate which crowded tensely around
him to hear his reaction to the pro
hibition plank adopted by the party
at Chicago.
It heard him condemn not only the
prohibition plank, but the entire
platform as "wholly inadequate and
wholly unresponsive to the neces
sities and demands of the people."
The outspoken prohibitionist served
notice that the liquor question
would be carried to the people.
A few minutes later, when asked
pomtblank if he would support Pres
ident Hoover on the Chicago plat
form. Uorah replied in three words:
"I will not."

Ho announced he would not be
bound by the platform declaration
"for a single moment," but would
carry the issue to the people. Later
the luahoan indicated to newspaper
men that lie did not intend the for
mation of a third party. His name
often has been linked in political
discussion with such a movement.
His declaration was quickly im

Therefore, without questioning any

leave aside a document which, with
