Went to Desk Last Night. ‘ The President was not too tired after | his arrival yesterday afternoon to hurry | to his desk soon after hanging up his | hat to delve into a mass of accumulated | business. He was busily engaged in this manner for more than two hours. Mr. Hoover mapped out a busy day | for himself today. Besides trying to | catch up with the routine of his office. | he met with his cabinet, the director of the budget and a number of others who called on business. Some of the President's personal friends seemed to be greatly upset to- day as a result of reports to the effect that neither he personally nor his im- portant waterways development speech were received in proper manner by the people of Louisville. i Takes Philosophical View. | The President himself, although con- scious of the somewhat slim crowd on | the streets to greet him and of many vacant seats in the suditorium where he spoke, accepted the situation in a | very philosophical manner. He attrib- uted the trouble to & mix-up in plans | which caused misunderstanding on the | part of the public and to the heavy downpour of rain. | He was represented today as reason- | ing that nothing transpired to his brief | stay is Louisville to indicate there was | any unfriendliness toward him. He was especially proud of the tre- | mendous ovations given him in Dear- born and Detroit and Cincinnati and along the Ohio River during his cruise. The reaction on his whole trip already is of a nature to convince the President that the trip in its entirety was a great success; that he has grown in popu- | laritq since his occupancy of the White | House 2n1 that he has the whole- | hearted support of the people. ‘The President today received many communications from various parts of the country containing congratulations upon his embitious waterways program, | as outlined by him in his Louisville | speech.
