HOOVER GIVEN
WELCOME BY
HIS HOME FOLK
Message of Gratitude Is
Directed to Citizens of
California.
BY PAUL r. MALLON
United Press staff Correspondent

ABOARD HOOVER SPECIAL,
OAKLAND, Cal, July 20.--A quiet
and unofficial welcome of boyhood
friends and associates greeted Her
bert Hoover as he came home to-
day, the Republican nominee for
President.
His special train rolled into Oak
land at $3.50 a. M, Pacific Coast
standard time and after short stop
turned off on direct track to
Pa!o Alto, his home.
There late today he will attend
the funeral of Mrs. Hoover's father,
G. D. Henry, "a, California banker,
who died Tuesday at Placerville.
Message to His State
Just before the train reached the
California State line Hoover issued
the following public message, di-
rected to the citizens of his home
State.
"A Californian crosses the State
line with gratitude that God made
this his home State. I return this
time with a deep sense Of RESPONSE
bility that 1 may add to her dis
tinction in that task for which she
has presented me to the Nation. I
look forward to being able soon to
express my thanks for this conf
dence."
1t was at Palo Alto, where Hoo
yer came to attend Leland Stanford
University thirty-seven years ago,
wearing his only suit of clothes and
carrying his entire worldly wealth
of $780,
1t was there he had laundry
agency to help pay his way through.
And there, in the presence of the
professor who failed him in Ger
man, and perhaps 10000 "others, he
will declare his acceptance of the
helm of the Republican party.
The home coming had been
planned as a mammoth affair. San
Francisco was to have feted him.
Go Quietly to Home
All of that has been changed be-
cause of the death last Tuesday
night of G. D. Henry, father of Mrs.
Hoover. The entire schedule of the
special train was changed so that
it will not even touch San Fran
cisco but will proceed directly over
the Dumbarton bridge to Palo Alto,
arriving there at about 1890 a. m,
Pacific time.
The former commerce secretary
and Mrs. Hoover Immediately went
to their home near the college
campus.
Hoover will rest there for several
days and may go up in the red
wood district of the northern pas
of the State some time next week.
No definite arrangements have been
made, but it is contemplated the
delayed San Francisco reception will
be staged the latter part of next
week.
