He has completed a survey of aviation fields hi connection with the Gugjenhcil aviation foundation. The younger brother, Allen, who recently became of voting age still has one quarter cf study to complete In Stanford University before his graduation. He is expected to go into business on the Pacific Coast and Herbert Jr., ' will continue his woik at Harvard where lie is d lug research in addi tion to his instruction. 1 ite President-elect is enjoying a family reunion. Behind the walls of his beautiful home here, he is taking the first real vacation in a long time, shut away from the world. This is "thinking and listening" time foi him. Hoover is giving u good deal of thought to his success in breaking into the solid south and what this nearI miracle means to tire future of the Republican patty. He and party leaders are planning to capitalize it by enci uraging establishment of live, active effective organizations there. Hoover may spend some time in the south after the new year, possibly setting up a winter heme in Florida. He is not expected to accept any of the southern invitations now He has refused several to visit the west coast. After remaining here about a month, he will take a trip, just where has n i been decided definitely. He is considering a return trip to Washington by way of the Panama canal. The family will spend Thanksgiving here, and all will be together Christmas in Hoover's S. street home in Washington. To the causual observer, Hoover might be a millionaire Californian spending a winter quietly at his California home instead of Piesident-elect of the United States, except for the seven secret service men who watch about his mansion. —.

I . meeting Monday evening Oct. 29 we distributed sample ballots and gave Instruction on voting but never said to vote the straight Republican ticket or any straight ticket. When I questioned t le writer as to the source of information she first said she must have received it from one of their employees who is a member of i i nr W. C. T. U, and was present at our meeting Oct. 29. Filially she said she did not know, there weri' so many tilings out that one did not kn w what to bi lieve Yesterday I went to the Review office and had a long talk with the Publisher He said a certain man told him his wife said we told her to v le the straight Republican ticket. I went to the lady and together we went to the Review office, where before tile publisher and others she told just what j she told me bet' re, namely that no one > neither a member of the W. T. U. I or any other person had told her to vote a straight Republican ticket or any other ticket, si you can see there was no reason for such publicity and you as Editor ami I as president of our W. (’.
