Continuing conferences with Repub-
lican campaign managers in the
East, Herbert Hoover today wasias-
sembling information upon which to
base a decision as to the extent he
will participate personally in the
presidential fight there.

William H. Hili, cuairman of the
New York state. Hoover committee,
had an engagement-with the Repub-
lican standard bearer to supplement
the advices given him yesterday by
Charles D. Hilles, national commit-
teeman for New York, and Daniel
E. Pomeroy, vice chairman of the
New Jersey committee.

- Reports received by Hoover since
his return from the West indicate
that the eastern situation is one re-
quiring attention and his advisers
are urging him to go into New
New, Massachusetts and New Jer-
sey for at least one speech for each
state and more if time can be found
for them. oe ,

After he has canvassed the eastern
situation, he will be in a position to
fairly. well map out his campaign up
to,,election time. It is certain that
he will take advantage of his swing
back to his home in California to
vote for making a series of addresses.
Whether he will take the northern
route home, through Wisconsin,

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
