outing along the Jersey seacoast to
a close tonight. Tomorrow he will
return to Washington and its tangle

politics today, following his Atlantic
City speech in which he dipped into
the New Jersey primary fight with
an endorsement of Senator Joseph s.
Frelinghuysen, who is opposed for
denomination by George L. Record,
Jersey City progressive. He was,
however. only partly successful, for
politics would not be shunted aside
for golf.
Late this afternoon he received the
memebrs Of the Atlantic County Re-
publican Club, to whom he informally
reiterated his endorsement OF Senator
Frelinghuysen as an administration
Senator who could always be counted
upon. Then, refusing to make a
speech. he hurried back to the golf
links, leaving Senator Frelinghuysen
to address the pilgrims.
The Presidents endorsement OF
Senator Frelinghuysen was the chief
topic Of conversation in Jersey po,
litical quarters hereabouts today
and predictions were generally made
that the primary fight between Ere
linghuysen and Record this fall will
be made another test" Of the ad
ministration similar to the New.Bev,

Aside from the one break in his
time today, President Harding was
able to get a solid day Of golf along
the famous seaswept course here

to the Seaview Club tonight tired but
happy. He played with Senator
