COOLIDGE PLEASED
OVER HOOVER TRIP
Goodwin Tour Appeals to
President as Having
Brightest Promises.
BY ]. RUSSELL YOUNG.

With the first announcement OF PreSl-
dent-elect Hoover's goodwill trip to
South America coming from the White
House late yesterday afternoon, it was
made known that the project is one
that appeals to President Coolidge and
that he is highly pleased with it.
e. President Coolidge and Mr. Hoover
discussed the idea at some length when
they were together for the last time
before Mr.. Hoover left Washington for
Palo Alto to cast his ballot.
-f At the instance of the President, the
State and Navy Departments are making
advance arrangements. Secretary OF
State Kellogg has caused inquiries to be
made of the countries Mr.. Hoover ex-
poets to visit to determine whether the
latter's visit will be agreeable. This is
merely a formality, as this Govern
ment has no doubt about the welcome
Mr.. Hoover viii receive when he visits
South America.
- Sees Benefits in Trip.
The trip will have far-reaching
Significance. the President is convinced.
While discussing it with friends, he
was represented as being of the opinion
that Mr. Hoover's visit to the southern
republics cannot fail to make most
favorable impression: that it viii eyince
the good will of this Government and
. will tend to cement more firmly rela-
tiCnS between them and the United
States.
Furthermore, the trip will serve to
better acquaint Mr. Hoover with con-
Citions in these sister republics and
Twill afford him an opportunity to study
ftheir problems at, close range. It is also
believed that Mr.. Hoover will not only
strengthen diplomatic relations, but will
improve the commercial ties between
these republics and the United States.
4Ndr. Hoover'S experience as head of the
Ivinced him that there is opportunity for
increasing the trade between this
country and South America.
According to officials here, Mr.. Hoo
iver'S greatest problem will be to deter
mine upon the countries to be visited
The State Department understands
each of the Latin American republics
is anxious to receive the next Presi-
dent of the United States, and there
would be visible disappointment in those
countries not included on Mr.. Hoover's
dist. III
Mexico Nav Ask Visit.
Moreover, it is. understood that Cen
trail America will want to do its share
in welcoming Mr.. Hoover. But thus far
the White House has not been advised
as to Mr.. Hoover'S itinerary. The i'm
preston here is that Mexico. will ex-
tend an invitation and will expect to
be on Mr.. Hoover'S route.
Besides discussing his contemplated
trip with President Coolidge, Mr. Hoo
yer is understood to have taken Sena-
tor Borah, chairman of the Senate for
eign relations committee, into his con-
fidence during their last conference
