Abstract

It Seems to Heywood Broun
Broun, Heywood | September 11, 1929 issue

When Herbert Clark Hoover, the republican candidate agreed to remain silent while his accredited managers raised the religious issue, he must have realized that he was doing a wrong thing. Very probably the agreement was never formal and articulate. Hoover merely looked the other way and said "What a pretty sunset," while his hired men paraded about with an effigy of the Pope. He himself did not read the speech. Perhaps he even refrained from acquainting himself with this phase of the campaign's activity after it had been launched.
