WORK TAKES UT DUTIES
New Chairman Intends to
Put Plenty of Ginger
in Efforts.
BY JOSEPH S. wAsNEY
United Press staff Correspondent


WASHINGTON, June 22.-Her-
bert Hoover decided today to leave
the capital early in July for his
Palo Alto, Cal, home, to work on
his speech accepting the Republican
presidential nomination, which he
expects to make the most important
document of the campaign.
The speech, to be delivered late
in July at the official notification
ceremonies in Palo Alto, will be
comprehensive explanation of
Hoover's ideas as applied to the
Republican platform.
1t will be Hoover's first speech
since his nomination, and since he
intends to make only few formal
speeches, it is likely to be the center
Of the campaign-along with
Hoover's letter to Borah opposing
repeal of the Eighteenth Amend
ment.
Hoover went to work today to
clear up cabinet and departmental
tasks and to draft the annual
report of the Commerce Depart
ment, which is to be submitted to
Congress in December.
The nominee has decided to hold
to his cabinet post at least until
after the notification ceremonies,
and he would like to keep it until
next March, it is indicated.
This will be decided after Hoover
confers with President Coolidge at
the summer White House in Wis
consin, en- route to the coast.
Hoover does not want to do much
campaigning personally, although he
probably will speak in his native
State of Iowa after the notification
acceptance speech. Most of his
speaking is to be done by radio.
Lining up of the Republican Or
ganization has been left entirely to
Secretary of Interior Hubert Work,
new chairman of the Republican
national committee.
Work has been in close contact
with Hoover for seven years and
undoubtedly will appoint a number
Of the nominees close friends to
important posts.

Col. Charles A. Lindbergh

the same cabin monoplane in
which he has been making
recent flights about the coun-
try, and was accompanied only
by Major Thomas Lanphier,
commandant of Selfridge Field,
Mich.
Lindbergh was uncommunicative,
as usual, regarding the flight and
bis future plans, although many
reports concerning his future activi.
ties were being circulated here to-
day.
1t was reported:
That he will undertake a trans
pacific flight 10 the Orient early this
summer, flying first from San Fran
cisco to Hawaii, and thence to the
Philippines and Japan.
That he will soon announce his
Identification with a new interna-
tional aerial navigation company

passenger service.
That he will become connected
with new national airways concern
which is to manufacture large COM
mercial transport planes to ply be-
tween the principal cities of this
country.
Yesterday Lindbergh spent two
hours with Undersecretary Of State
Olds, which gave rise to reports of
new foreign ventures.
Lindbergh has concluded his aerial
taxi chauffeuring for members of
Congress and their families. During
the four days of this work, he went
aloft more than 100 times and carried
more than 1000 passengers.

No tangible clue to the identity of

ris, 10, bank runners, of 1920 of
the funds of the Federal American
Bank had been found by central of
flee detectives today.
John Poole, president of the
bank, has stated that the robbery
would not be held against the two
youths as he considered it un-
avoidable. He stated that both boys
came to the bank with excellent
recommendations and had a good
record.
An interesting parallel in the
case is that the runner for the
District National Bank, who was
held up and robbed last December,
had just completed a call at the
Independent Savings Bank. The
two runners who were robbed yes
terday declared that they had called
at the same bank on their last
stop.
According to police, the youths
had made their last call, with the
exception of collecting at the
Prudential Bank for checks which
they had left, and had stopped at
the curb of Columbia Road. near
Fourteenth Street, to allow Miss
Vivian Macdonald, 10, fiancee of
Fridinger, to alight. She is en-
ployed at the Columbia Telephone
Exchange.
Before the car started the rObber
stepped into the back. and upon
being told by the youths that they
were bank runners. he held them

SOUTHERN ASKS
110FT, HOME

The Zoning Commission today was
asked to remove restrictions on the
site at the southwest corner of Fiji
teeenth and K Streets Northwest, so
that the Southern Railway may
build an office building there with
a height Of ITO feet. The present
height allowed is 80 feet.
Waddy B. Wood, architect, told the
commission that the railways new
office building would be in keeping
with the character and dignity of the
University Club, Veterans Bureau
Building and other outstanding
structures In that locality.
The exterior Of the building will
be similar to the Acropolis at Athens,
Greece. Many artistic effects will be
carried out, he said.
The increased height is needed,
Daniel O'Donoghue said, because the
company has been unable to acquire
site sufficiently large to house it's
employees in a building lower than
ITO feet.
The total height of the proposed
oIflce building would actually he 1870

the 110-foot limit.

Declaring that these transfers,
which exist merely lupon the books
and to no practical effect, are
illegal, the comptroller general ad-
ministered verbal scolding to Sec
rotary Hubert Work, Disbursing
Officer J. B. Callahan and others
concerned In the case.
The comptroller generals office,
going over the books of the dis
bursting officer for 1926, discovered
that two employees of the secretary's
office had been transferred to the
solicitors office on July last for
one month. According to a nota-
ton on the books, each of these
employees was detailed to work in
the secretary's office.
Investigation disclosed that the
employees had continued TO Occupy
the same desks and to do the
same work during the transfer
period AZ they had done formerly.
McCarl's office asked the depart-
ment for an explanation. The reply
was that these workers handled
matters pertaining to all bureaus
OF the department, including the
SOLICITORS office, apd pointed out
that the solicitors and secretary's
offices were closely connected.
