A-6 ™ % HOOVER RETURNS FROM CAMIP TODAY Work of Completing Tariff Board to Get Attention This Week. President Hoover will return to the ‘White House late today from his camp on the Rapidan and is expected to| devote his attention this week to com- pleting reorganization of the new Tariff Commission. Only two and ore-half weeks remain before the present commission expires and four more members must be chosen. Henry P. Fletcher, a Republican and \etmn diplomat, and Thomas Walker Page, economic authority and Demo- crat, are the only commissioners selected thus far. I The Chief Executive has made it a custom to take governmental quesions to the quiet of his lodge near .ic.c on the Rapidan River for consideration | and sometimes the thing he has most | in mind is indicated by the party per- sonnel. He spent this week end inj studying ways of speeding up the Gov- i ernment’s building program and there was nothing to indicate that the Tariff Commission” was, touched .upon. Goes to Baltimore Tuesday. While the task of completing the make-up of the tariff body is a pressing one, the President is not expected to get much work done before the middle | of the week. The better part of Labor | day will be spent at camp. On Tuesday | he will motor to Baltimore to_review the parade of the Veterans of Foreign Wars, returning to Washington the | same day for dinner. After conferences yesterday which resultéd in the decision to accelerate the construction program to help relleve unemployment, the President rested at his lodge today. Most of his guests did likewise. Ride Over Mountains. Lawrene Richey, the President’s secretary; Ferry K. Heath, Assistant Secretary of the Treasury, and Delano Large, 16-year-old nephew . of Mrs, Hoover, took a 17-mile ride over the mountains on horseback to a resort on a plateau near the top of Stony Man Mountain, a 4,000-foot peak in the Blue Ridge. The three riders found it rough going, however, and had a White House car meet them at Luray, at the foot of f:ony Man, to take them back to camp. mp P groups then rode through White Cak | Canyon. Richey and his companions had dinner at the resort and afterward le to the summit of Stony Man to 't @ view of the great valley below.
