A—4 wx NUDISTS OF WORLD CONVENE IN JERSEY Prying Busybodies Nowhere fo Be Seen at Isolated Mountain Spot. By the Associated Press. STOCKHOLM, N. J., August 31— High up in the Hamburg Mountains of Sussex County, where once the wily Redskin trailed the puck and doe, the International Nudist Conference opened its three-day annual meeting today. No prying busybodies peered in on Camp Rock Ledge, for the place is as isolated as it is exclusive. The camp is conducted by the American Gymno- | sophical Association, and to reach it one has to drive five miles beyond Stockholm along & narrow winding dirt road. An ambitious program lay ahead of the 200 or more delegates, assembled to put the finer touches on their plans to establish at least one nudist camp in every State of the Union by Janu- ary 1, 1936. On the eve of the opening of the first session, Dr. Ilsley Boone, execu- tive secretary of the conference, said the Disciples of the Altogether would thresh out the problem of how to teach those who wear clothes how to be tolerant. * Events on the program include pea- nut races, exhibition of skilled nudist swimming, singing of the nudist hymn, written by Willlam Sheppard Sparks, a talk on nudism among the PEskimos and another talk on “What Will Nudism Do to Civilization?” Marriage Licenses.

PARTY GHIEF TAINS HEDGE ON CHANCES Hoover Declared About to Withdraw From Scene. Roosevelt Is Wary. By the Associated Press. The pre-campaign battle of state- | ments, speculation and innuendo re- garding possible party nominees for President picked up speed today as the two chief figures in any such pic- tare became drawn into the contro- versy. From usually reliable Republican sources came a report that former President Hoover was contemplating issuance of a statement during the next few weeks giving definite notice of his intention of “not choosing to! run.” From the White House came a seemingly casual remark by President Roosevelt that he might not be Presi- dent in 1939, a declaration sufficient to start whisperers whispering and commentators commenting. The presidential remark came in the course of questioning about a pub- lished magazine story to the effect that he intended to balance the bud- get by 1939.. Mr. Roosevelt told news- men that he had not read the article in question (by George Creel in Col- liers’ Weekly) and could not comment on it. He added, however, that the author is a good frignd of his. Along with the Hoover report came . | quick denials from other Republican sources that the titular head of the party would tip his hand so early in the campaign controversy. ‘There have been many recent de- mands by Republicans that Mr. Hoover make clear whether he was seeking the nomination. Some of his friends have said that what he wanted to see was a party victory and that at the proper moment he would say who he thought could deliver that. On the other hand, some astute Republican - politicians have argued that if the former President desired to have & hand in the selection of the nominee, he should keep silent. In this way, they said, he would maintain a personal following which at the proper moment in the conven- tion could be thrown to the candi- date he favored. ‘These men contended that if Mr. Hoover disclosed his hand at this time, his followers would scatter to other candidates and when the Cali- fornian announced his favorite, he would have less support to offer. Already some Republican leaders in the Capital have said they believed a combination of the conservative Re- publican partisans would be laid athwart any drive for the nomination of Senator Borah of Idaho. “There is no question but that Borah would make the best race in the pri- mary States,” one of these said. “But when they go into convention, the conservatives from the old line ranks will get together and pick their own man. They will put on a good show and send the watermelon boys home, saying, ‘Well, we did the best we could for Borah.'” M’MAHON RITES HELD Man Who Died in River Plunge Buried Here. Funeral services for Hugh P. Mc- Mahon, 26, of 1410 Kearney street northeast, who drowned in the Po- tomac River Tuesday night after a plunge from the deck of an excur- sion boat, were held at 10 am. today at St. Anthony’s Church. Burial was in Mount Olivet Cemetery.

Private funeral services for Edgar Werner Ford, 58, former national trap- shoot champion, who died in the Home for Incurables here Thursday, were to be held in Rockville, Md,, at 2 pm. today. Burial will be in a cemetery there. Until he contracted s paralytic affliction about 15 years ago, Mr. Ford was one of the best-known shotgun marksmen in the United States. He participated in most of the larger meets and held the national champion- ship for several years. The disease with which he was stricken robbed him of muscular control and forced him to give up his position as representative of a large arms and powder manufac- turing company. Five years ago, Mr. Ford entered the Home for Incurables. Previously he had been employed in the War De- partment and in the Rural Mail Divi- slon of the Post Office Department.

The Little Entente will oppose t.hzm with all its might.” The growing friendliness of Little Entente circles toward Prince Ernst von Starhemberg, vice chancellor, was interpreted by some quarters to mean that a Fascist regime headed by him would be welcomed by the Little En- tente. ‘The communique failed to say any- thing about Austro-German Anschluss, or the possibility of a Nazi regime in Vienna.
