HOOVER ID MOVE:
 ID SPACIOUS SUITE
Temporary Quarters in War and
 Navy Buildings Arranged

Washington. Dec. 27 P)-Tempo- rary headquarters were provided for President Hoover today at the state war and navy building in a spacious suite from which he can, if he chooses. watch the restoration of the frc-ruined White House eXecu- tive offices.
 The presidents new working place is the sumptuous office occu- pied by a long succession of seer taries of the navy and more recen.- ly given over to the use of General John J. PerShng in recognition ot his distinguished career and his rank or gcncralt of the armies,
 Work To Be Hastencd
 Every effort was made to cXp"- ditc the work of transferring the necessary accoutrements of tho presidential headquarters 10 their temporary location. in the hope that Mir. Hoover might be able to occupy his new office tomorrow and avoid, so far as possible. the inconvenience Of receiving business callers in hi: living quarters at the White House.
 To accommodate Mr. Hoover's secretaries and the White House clerical force, q dozen offices ad Joining that given the president are being vacated by the war plans di- vision of the army. which will move into an uptown office building.
 \ conference room is 10 be tine scene of the scmi-weekly cabinet The much cherished chairs Of the cabinet members which are usually taken 10 their homes on retirement. are being moved into this chamber.
 Rather than submit 10 the delay of building an entirely new office MT Hoover prefers that the old west wing of the White House be reconstructed. The dv. structivc fire of Christmas Eve left the supporting walls standing. al. though floors. roofs. interior parti. tions and fittings. must be replaced almost in their entirety.
 Some members of congress have expressed the view that stately structure of great architectural beauty and dignity in keeping with his great office should be construct, ed for the president
 Until he can move into his quar. ters at the state, war and navy building, Mr. Hoover is using the famous old Lincoln study on the second floor of the White House.

Chester Fugate Dies From Multiple Wounds, Accus- ing Kidnapers Who Took Him From County Jail Officials.

Jackson, Ky. Dec. 25 tPl -- An- other man is dead in the latest feUd flarcup in "Bloddy Brcathitt" county, and officers today were eX- pected to bring charges of murder against six men named by the vic tim. Chester t'ugate, 3J, before he died late yesterday,
 Five of the men. kinSmen of Clay Watkins, shot 10 death by Fugate December IS, surrendered shortly before Fugate died Of 1% pistol wounds and exposure, and were hell under s5,0o0 bond each on charges of malicious shooting and wound ing. The sixth sent word he would surrender.
 Murder Charges Proposed
 G. C. Watkins, commonwealth attorney, announced previously that charges of murder would be man. datory if Fugatc died.
 Fugate was taken from his cell in the Breathitt county jail here early Christmas morning by d mob Of several score men, shot again and again. and left for dead in the snow. He was found five hours later by a farmer nearly dead from loss of blood and exposure. The jailer S l.. Combs, had been bound by the mob leaders.
 That the slaying Of Fugate was definitely a fcud revival and the ancient law of Moses and the noun tains of ''an eye for an eye and tooth for a tooth" was being obeyed, came 10 light yesterday. Three years ago Amos Fugate, cousin Of the mob victim, shot and killed Deupty Sheriff Green Watkins brother of the man Chester Fugate killed last week in quarrel over a petty debt.
 Amos Shot Later
 A posse found Amos lfugate and filled his body full of bullets. Then in the last election Sewell Fugate ran against Clay Watkins for chair man of the county board of educa- ton. Watkins won.
 Chester ITugate was the second Of
 
 Of a mob. Fifty years ago his grand father. Hen kiIburn, was dragged from the same jail. along with a negro. and both were lynched in the courthouse yard They had kill ed a man.
 The outbreak Of violence recalled another of quarter of century ago when Curtis Jett. nephew of County Judge James Harsis, was one of the principal figures in the most famous of Kentucky mountain trials. A company of militia pre- served order as Jett was tried for the assassination of James E. Mar cum and James Cockrell. and later Judge Hargis came 10 trial as the master mind behind the murders. Since then there have been homi- cides innumerabe, but little suspi- cion Of a feud
 Many Went to War
 A brighter side of Bloody Breat- hitt's' record is that at the out break of the world war so many men volunteered for service the county had no draft quota.
 The men bound over and released on bail shortly before Iugate died and their kinship to Clay Watkins are:
 Samuel ]. Watkins, brother; L. K Rice. son-in-Iaw: Allie Watkins. son; and E,ar and Bent Howard. nephews. The bonds were signed by themselves. by Jack Howard, uncle Of Bent and Earl. and Elbert Hargis The man who said he would surrender is Lee Watkins, a cousin.
