have such a direct bearing upon the
question of taxation In the District, the
group discussed among other things the
building of the municipal center, the
budget of estimates for the operation
of the District government for the fiscal
year commencing next July /, the inn
provement Of alley conditions, the de-
velopment Of the park systems. and
the public school system. It could not
be learned just what views the Presi-
dent expressed regarding the question
Of schools In the District, although &c
Is known that he has some very def
mite ideas which he has formulated
since becoming President.
One Of the Presidents intimates said
last night that he was anxious to indi-
cate to the District Commissioners his
really genuine interest in local affairs
and to assure them that he was behind
them in their work.
While the President was comforting
with the Commissioners, the other
guests at the week end party amused
themselves In various ways, principally
by horseback riding and pitching
horseshoes. Mrs. Hoover, with the
ladies Of the party, including Mrs.
Crosby and Mrs. Reichelderfer, went
for walk over the mountain trails.
After luncheon the President rested
for an hour or so in his cabin and as
the afternoon wore on he started on q
hunt in the mountain regions for, some
promising bass streams. Since the
first Of July the trout fishing has been
prohibited by State law and the Presi-
dent Is now hoping to indulge in some
bass fishing. On his exploration he
was accompanied by Lawrence Richey,
one of his secretaries; Mark Sullivan,
newspaper editor and correspondent,
who has been O fishing companion Of
the President for many years, and Capt.
Joel T. Boone, the White House physi-
cian., Their journey carried them over
the mountains to the streams beyond
Luray. The President and his COM
panionS waded several. of the streams,
all Of which were low, and cast their
flies for q short period In the hope of
discovering a productive bass field,
They caught no bass, but they are sat-
isfied that another trip In that section
9 week or SO from now win be profit
able.
The President and his fishing COM
panions did not return to the camp
until nearly dark. The President and
Mrs. Hoover win not return to the
White House until early tomorrow. II
Is believed that most Of the guests, In
GLIDING the Commissioners and their
wives, will return to Washington late
this afternoon.

berry through a call from telephone
operator in the Bradley exchange, who
said a man at the Wisconsin avenue

knocked the receiver Of the hook and
was shouting into the mouthpiece sew
eral yards away.
The victim Of the robbery was

County force that his assistant was
lured from the store by q false order OF
merchandise.

store shortly before o'clock last night
when he received q telephone call re-
questing him to deliver length Of hose
and a sprinkler at an address on the
old Georgetown road. He sent his as
sistant, Archie Phillips Of Bethesda,

in the darkened back room.
Then they both jumped on me and
hit me twice, knocking me out" Locke
said. 'I don't know what 1t was they
hit me with. When I came to was

day night when there Is large amount
Of money in the store. I had the gun In
my pocket, but I couldn't get to it."

floor securely bound with rope taken
from his stock of goods. A search re-
vealed that $249 had been taken from
the safe, which was not locked, and $50
and two drivers permits from Locke's
pockets.
