MUSICAL ARTISTS RALLY FOR HOOVER
GALLI-CURCI LEADS AMERICAN PRESIDENCY By Cable.— Frees Association. — Copyright. NEW YORK, Saturday. Much interest has been aroused by a statement made by the Secretarv of the Interior, Mr. Hubert Work, that the Secretary of Commerce, Mr. H. C. Hoover, now has enough probable votes to secure his nomination for the Presidency on the first ballot at the Republican National Convention. The first touch of gaiety in the politic a 1 campaign comes with the announcement that a committee of noted musical artists, headed by the prima donna Amelita Galli-Curci, has been formed to support the candidacy of Mr.' Hoover Madame Galli-Curci says there is a belief that musical folk are not practical folk. This is obviously untrue. Therefore the support of leaders in musical art in an important political campaign is significant. "We agree that Mr. Hoover is no politician,’’ said the singer, “but we think it would be a good thing to have a President who is so beloved and respected by other nations as he is." —A. and N.Z.
