President Decides to Work
Instead of Celebrating
57th Anniversary.
Bn United PreSa

By United Press
WASHINGTON, Aug. 10.-Pres-
ident Hoover returned from Camp
Rapidan at Ills a. m. to spend his
fifty-Seventh birthday at work.
While house officials said no
birthday plans had been made,
upon his arrival at the White
House the President found many
messages of congratulations from
friends and cablegrams from some
rulers abroad. No engagements
were made for Mr.. Hoover during
the day.
The trip from camp was Ieisurely,
on a hot August morning. Although
he did not know it, the Presidents
secret service had an interesting
dispute over right of way with a
persistent red-haired young woman,
who sought to pass the President
over a twenty-mile stretch between
Speryville and Warrenton, Va.
Girl Driver Is Persistent.
The persistent one had a boyish
bob and wore horn-rimmed spec
tacles. She drove a light coupe and
pushed it at a rapid rate of speed.
Failing to understand repeated
warnings from the secret service
car, she honked her horn almost
continuously over the twenty-mile
stretch.
The secret service car, immed-
lately behind the President, had to
hold the middle Of the road to keep
her back. At one time she went
off the road on the left hand side,
but the shoulder was smooth
enough to carry her through with
out damage.
Finally, when the President
stopped al Warrenton for the
morning papers, she slid by and
disappeared in the direction of
Washington. She was accompanied
by an elderly woman.
A quiet family celebration at the
camp had been planned. Mrs.
Hoover, Immediately on her return
from christening the new naval
dirigible at Akron, motored to the
Rapidan Sunday to be with the
President. But from an official
source came word that there was
to be no birthday celebration of
any kind and that no notice would
be taken of the occasion.
Usually Observe Anniversary
This is most unusual in the
Hoover family. They always have
observed the birthdays of the head
of the house. The last two years
the anniversary was marked by sur
prise parties at Rapidan camp.
Usually Mrs. Hoover has a cake
baked and ready. She is under
stood to have prepared one this
year, too.
Desire to continue work on his
program for meeting the unemploy-
ment problem next winter was con-
sidered a likely reason for Mr..
Hoover's cancellation of plans to
spend the day in camp. He has
: working on this problem re-
celItly to the exclusion of almost
all other matters.

COUNTY BOARD
ORDERS PROBE
AT POOR FARM
Complaints of Insanitary
Conditions Bring Action
by Commission.
PLEDGE THOROUGH QUIZ
Attempt to Railroad Blind
Inmate to Asylum
Stirs Inquiry.

County commissioners announced
today that they will 'go to the bot
tom" of the charges that 75-year-
old blind pauper was imprisoned in
a filthy and foul smelling" cell at
the Marion county poor farm.
Reused by criticisms made by two
doctors whose reports frustrated an
attempt by poor farm attendants to
railroad George Robinson, the aged
blindman, to hospital for the in
sane, to rid the farm of an inmate,
the commissioners said a complete
investigation will be made.
Doctors Orvall Smiley and Emil
G. Winters, whose report to Superior
Judge John w. Kern saved the in
mate from being declared insane,
will be asked to appear before the
commissioners as soon as it can be
arranged.
Carter to Be Quizzed
At the same time John G. Car
ter, poor farm superintendent, and
Howard Wiseman, attendant, who
signed papers declaring Robinson of
unsound mind, will be called before
the commissioners.
The two physicians who examined
the aged pauper as friends of the
count, to determine whether he was
insane, declared the cell in which
Robinson was kept at the poor farm
was "disguStingly filthy"
One of the physicians commented:
I almost felt like saying that the
old fellow was insane just to get him
a cleaner place to stay"
Both doctors declared that Rob-
1nSon was sane.
DR.. R. r. Coble, physician attend
Ing inmates at the poor farm, de-
clared Robinson of unsound mind.
Give Heed to Charges
Wisenan, the attendant who
signed the affidavit, charging Rob
inson with insanity, also signed a
warrant against George Handlon,
farm inmate, sent to the state penal
farm after appearing before the
grand jury, testifying to brutal treat
ment at the inflrmary.
There have been a lot of
charges regarding conditions at the
poor farm" Dow VorhieS Demo-
crat) county commissioner, said
today. so far, none has been sub
stantiated. am in favor, however,
OF going to the bottom of this case"
George Snyder (Republican)
commissioner stated, 'in a case like
that of Robinson, it is hard to pro-
vide proper care The charges of
these two physicians should be
looked into carefully"
Investigation Rumored
Commissioner John E. Shearer
Republican) stated that he feels
a complete investigation is "the
proper thing to do"
Following Judge Kern's order
that Robinson be remanded to the
poor farm, after being declared
sane, the blind pauper was returned
to the same cell that had been
assailed by the doctors.
Byron Carter, son of the super
intendent, declared the cell is
cleaned daily" and that the foul
smell described by the physicians
was "di3infectant."
