| WASHINGTON, Aug. 27. —(%)—
Refreshed after a two-day’s rest
at his honie here, Herbert Hoover
today turned his attentlon to map-
ping out his program for the re-
mainder of the campaign.

* The republican presidential
nomince decided to give first at-
tention to the East, and in order
to inform himself fully as to the
situation there he has invited a
number of friends to call on him at

his new headquarters which are to
be set up here. ‘4

He now has under consideration
a visit to both New York, home
state of his democratic opponent,
and Massachusetts, but his Eastern
itinerary will not be decided upon
until after he has conferred fully
with those in charge of his cam-
paign fn that section,

The repuslican candidate's view
is that he ‘should defer further
specch-making for two weeks or
more and then begin an intensive
drive which would carry him into
the border states and the South as
well.as the Kast. He also proba-
bly will make a trip to Chicago be-
fore beginning his final swing
across the continent at the close
of the campaign.

In working out details of his
itinerary Hoover will seck: advice
of Dr. Hubert Work, chairman of
the republican national committee:
Representative Walter Newton of
Minnesota; who has charge of the

national speakers’ bYerau; Repre-
sentative John Q. Tilson, of Cin-
cinnati, director of the eastern
Speakers’ bureau, and James W
Good, of Iowa, western campaign
 
Washington, D, C., Aug. 28—(/)—
Continuing conferences with Re-
publican committee managers in
‘east, Herbert Hoover today was as-
sembling information on which to
base a decision as to the extent he

will participate personally in the
presidential fight here.

William H. Hill, chairman of the

New York state Hoover committee,
had an engagement with the Re-
publican standard. bearer to sup-
plement the advices gven him yes-
terday by Charles D. Hiles, national
committeeman for New York, and
Daniel E. Pomeroy, vice. chairman
of the New Jersey. committee. |
East Requires Attention
Reports received by Hoover since
his return from the West indicate
that the eastern situation requires
attention and his advisors are urg-
ing him to go into New York, Mas-
sachusetts and New Jersey for at
least one speech for each state and
more if time can be found for them.
After he has canvassed the east-
ern situation, he will be in a position
to map out fairly well his campaign
up to election time. It is certain
that he will take adavantage of his
swing back to his home in Califor-
nia to vote after making a series of
addresses. Whether, he will take
the northern route home, through
Wisconsin, Minnesota, Montana and
Oregon, or the southern route re-
mains to be determined. .
To Visit Middle West
Before that time he very probab-
ly will go into the Middlewest,
speaking at Chicago and some oth-
er cities, and also into the border
states, but these addresses are like-
ly to follow those in the East.
Should Hoover decide to make a
labor Day address next Mohday, it
will be in Wasington with a radio
hookup, it was stated today at his
office. . However, the candidate
thinks the time is too short for the
preparation of an address. —
Representatives of the Republican
candidate still were seeking today
to secure a building in which to
open his personal headquarters. ~
Can't Find Office Room
The delay is causing the nom-
inee some inconvenience as he has
no place to carry on his office work,
which is piling up. He also wants
a suitable assembling place for del-
egations that will come here to see
him and for the accommodaticn ot
newspaper correspondents.
| It is indicated that after the of-
fice is set up, Hoover will see the
correspondents much more fre-
quently than he did on ‘his © recent
western tour. He probably will talk
with them three times a week, but
there is no indication that he wil
