| 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
