HOOVER WILL
FORGET POLITICS
ON FISHING TRIP
Newark Labor Speech Is
Completed by G. O. P.
Nominee.
BY PAUL r. NIALLON
United Press staff Correspondent


WASHINGTON, Sept. 11.-Her-
bert Hoover concluded the advance
copy of his Newark labor speech to-
day and indicated he would start
Wednesday on two-day fishing
trip down the Potomac River and
Chesapeake Bay.
Returns from the Maine primary
we're scanned closely by Hoover for
an indication of what might be ex-
pected in November
The nominee now believes every
thing is in shipshape for a brief
vacation.
He will have fortnight after the
Newark speech to prepare his next
address at Elizabethton, Tenn.
Headquarters has taken scant no.
tice of published reports that HUI
bert Work has been unof1cially de-
noted as chairman of the Repub-
lican national committee.
Work was selected because Hoover
wanted some one he could trust to
carry out his instruction. Hoover
has always been the real authority
of the campaign. just as every
presidential candidate has in the
past. He is much more experienced
in organization matters than Work
and the latter has proflted by Hoo
ver's advice.
An official denial of the report
was made by the Republican ma
tional committee Tuesday.
