BELLE ISLE MIAMI BEACH, Fla,
January 24-Following a conference of
more than two hours today between
President-elcct Hoover and Dwight w.
Morrow, Ambassador to Mexico, it was
made quite apparent by the latter that
he is not going to be in the Hoover cabi-
net, as has been prominently speculated
upon.
While the Ambassador to Mexico
made it very plain to the correspondents
with whom he talked upon leaving the
Penney estate, where Mr.. and Mrs.
Hoover are spending their pre-
inaugural vacation, that he did not
want to reveal the nature of his talk
with the next President, he did intimate
that he is soon going back to his Mexi-
can post with the intention of remain
ing there some little time" He would
not amplify that statement.
Mr.. Morrow did say that he and Mr..
Hoover discussed the Mexican situation
in some detail and that he endeavored
to impress upon Mr.. Hoover the i'm
portance of a goodwill trip to that
country some time in the near future
He declined to say what views Mr.
Hoover expressed in this connection, but
the inference was drawn that such
Journey on the part OF Mr.. Hoover is
not at all unlikely.
Counts on MOrrow's Aid.
It was stated by Mr.. Morrow that he
reminded Mr.. Hoover that besides the
strong inference given today by AM
bassador Morrow that he may be follno
at his post in Mexico City after Mr
Hoover has been inaugurated into ofhce.
it has been gathered by those who are
in Mr. Hoover's confidence that ne is
counting greatly upon having the assist
ance of Mr.. Morrow in handling the
affairs of the United States in that
country. He is known TO be
anxious to have Mr. Morrow continue
on in his present place and complete
the work, he has so successfully started
of ironing out the differences between
Mexico and the United States. II Is
realized that Mr.. Morrow has met Win
wonderful success as far as ne has gone.
but that there is yet much to be ac-
complished..
The trouble that has resulted as
result of Mexico's land and petroleum
laws has not been corrected, ana II Is
believed by those who are familiar Win
Mr.. Morrow's work in that country,
that he will eventually BRING apouC
either a modification or complete
reneal regarding these laws, which will
be agreeable to the two nations.
Mr.. Morrow is understood to have
gone away from Belle Isle today with
the understanding that Mr.. Hoover VIII
look to him to clean up the Mexican
lob. The Ambassador would not say
whether or not the cabinet had peen
mentioned during his conference with
the President-elect.
Arrives From Nassau.
He reached Miami this morning from
Nassau, Bahamas, and arrived at tne
Belle Isle home of Hoover shortly after
Q o'clock. While. Re and Mr. Hoover
talked. they sat in a large room facing
Piscayne Bay. Mr.. Morrow said he
would leave Miami tonight for New
York and that he expected to return
to Mexico within the next two weeks.
Mr.. Hoover is known to have been
especially anxious for this talk with Mr.
Morrow, the first one they have had
since the election.
Mr.. Hoover did not linger long after
Mr.. Morrow's departure before start
ing on the three-day fishing trip
in the Gulf stream, just off the Miami
Keys. which he has so carefully planned.
With Mr.. and Mrs. Hoover, Mr.
and Mrs. Mark Sullivan, Laurence
Richey, his personal secretary and
representative on this vacation trip,
and half a dozen secret service men, Mr..
Hoover left Belle Isle shortly after the
noon hour.
Mrs. Richey, Edward G. Lowry
and Mr.. and Mrs. jeremiah Milbank
of New York, who are to be members
of the fishing party, and two of Mr..
Hoover's stenographerS, left Belle Isle
earlier in the morning in the Saunter-
er, Mr. Milbank'S yacht. Those who
accompanied Mr.. Hoover are motoring
to a point on the coast about so miles
below Biscayne Bay, where they will
take up with the Milbank yacht, and
the Amite, the yacht to be used
by the President elect and Mrs. Hoover.

Hoover will fish and a speed boat for
the secret service make up the little
flotilla.
Mr.. Hoover will doubtless use the
standard light tackle, accepted officially
by the Long Key Fishing Club, which
is siX-ounce tip, triple 0 reel and 12-
thread line. With this equipment il
requires delicate manipulation and a
lot of husky endurance to persuade a
