PRESIDENT TO SEND
ANNUAL MESSAGE
Decides to Have Clerk Read
It Rather Than Go to
Capitol for Purpose.
BY J. RUSSELL YOUNG.

President Hoover has decided to send
his message to Congress when 1t con-
venes in regular session next week
rather than go in person to the Capt.
toll to read 1t.
Intimates of the President are known
to have suggested to him that he go to
the Capitol and read his first annual
message. but the President made 1t clear
that he preferred to send this document
rather than to appear before Congress
himself.
No reason was advanced by the Pres
ident for vetoing the suggestion that
he follow the custom revived by Wood
row Wilson and carried out by Warren
G. Harding. 1t is believed that his real
purpose in preferring to have his mes
sage read is his genuine dislike for
reading aloud to any large gathering.
He is satisfied that the trained reading
clerks of Congress can accomplish the
Job much better.
It is thought quite likely that in
reaching his decision Mr.. Hoover re-
called criticism in congressional circles
of President Wilson'S practice. Some
members of Congress felt they were
being lectured or dictated to when a
message was read to them personally
by a President. This same criticism
also marked President Hardings per-
sonal reading of his messages to Con-
greSS.
George Washington personally read
his messages to Congress, but from his
administration on down to the time his
custom was revived by woodrow Wilson,
the Presidents sent their messages to
Congress to be read by clerks. Presi-
dent Harding followed Mr.. wilson's ex-
ample, but President Coolidge tried 1t
only once, and after that he returned
to the more accepted practice Of having
the presidential message read while he
remained back at the White House.
President Hoover has virtually COM
pleted the writing of his message. Some
sections of it have been put in type by
the Public Printer and the proof sheets
were submitted yesterday to the Presi-
dent for correction and editing.
This idea of having message printed
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1929-11-25

In pieces, so to speak, is q new one, SO
far as presidential message writing Ii
concerned. As proof sheets OF these
sections of his message reached his desk,
yesterday, Mr.. Hoover sent for those
members of his cabinet whose depart
ments were more or less directly inter-
ested in the subject treated in the
printed sections. He first had Post
master General Brown cloSeted with
him. Then followed Secretary of Com
merce Lamont, then Secretary of In
terror Wilbur and finally Secretary OF
Agriculture Hyde.
The impression is that Mr. Hoover
finds 1t easier to edit his writings when
he sees his thoughts in cold type than
In his own handwriting or typewriter
pages. This is the reason he is having
his message printed in sections.
President Hoover has number of
vitality important subjects to treat in
his message, and it is easy to under
stand his painstaking preparation.
Moreover, this Is his initial message to
Congress and he is conscious that it is
being looked forward to with more than
ordinary interest.
Prominent among the problems to be
discussed by him in this document is
tariff revision, which Congress in its
to complete. Naturally enough what he
has to say on this subject at this time
will be of great interest.
Mr.. Hoover's great program for a
gigantic inland waterway development
program, which was revealed in his
recent Louisville speech, will be set
forth in definite form In this message.
Other vital problems to be discussed are
prohibition and law enforcement gen.
orally: foreign relations, reorganization
of the executive departments of the
Government, with special recommended
tions affecting prohibition enforcement
and those agencies dealing with war
veterans and their dependents; public
buildings program; railroad consollda-
ton; conditions in the Federal prisons
and tax reduction.
Regarding prohibition and law en-
forcement, it is thought unlikely that
the President will be ready to make
any specific recommendations as to
legislation other than that necessary
for the transferring of certain enforce
ment activities from the jurisdiction
of the Treasury Department to the
Department of Justice.
It is understood also that the Presi-
dent will devote passage in his mes
sage to the forthcoming naval diSarn:=-
ment conference and that he will touch
upon the negotiations with Prime Min
lister Macdonald of Great Britain which
led to an agreement of naval parity
between that nation and the United
States.
The opinion of those associated with
the President Is that he will have fin
ished his editing and correcting by
tomorrow and that the speech will be
ready later that day for distribution.
II not it will be ready Wednesday.

PILLS FOR
 TANNING OF
 REBELS NOW

PARIS, Jan. Medicine is a new arm of French propaganda in the Near East. Where force has failed to conquer the native populations of Syria and the rebel tribes of the Druses, it is possible that hospitals and free dispen- saries will succeed, NJ. Archard reported to the Academy of Medi- cine after returning from study of medical conditions in the Near East.
 Archard found French medical influence predominant in Persia, where many French professors have been called to organize modern Persian medical profess sion. On the other hand, in Frances own Syrian mandate. at Beirut, the French Hotel-Dieu, or city hospital, has fallen be- hind the American hospital and has need of new subsidies. Arch ard asked that closer collabora- tion between the two be estab- lished.
 At Damascus, new Syrian faculty with the collaboration of four French professors is prepar- ing to restore the prestige of the ancient Arab university.

AIR TRAFFIC
 JAMS CAUSING
 NEW PROBLEMS

LIE BOURGET, Jan. 1S.-Traf- fic jams have followed the air plane into the air. The Le Bour- get-Croydcn air route, despite the immensity of the heavens, suffers from oyercrowding just like the narrow streets of cities.
 French and English govern ments are trying to agree on means of policing this great sky way. The chief cause of trouble has been privately owned air planes whose pilots for greater safety and commodity preferred to follow the regular route of the big commercial air lines.
 These planes have increased in number to a point where they are a menace to traffic, especial ly in hay weather. When yisi- bility is low, the big London-Paris planes have many narrow escapes from collision.
 France has considered the fea- sibility of obliging all private pilcts flying by the Le Bourget- Croydon route to announce their departure at Le Bourget which would warn the London-Paris planes by wireless to keep a sharp lookout.
