 GOLD NEST EGG
(Continued from Page 1.)

kCOnllnueo rom rage 1.)
 MT Roosevelt, met members of the Washington Press in his small office at the summer White House but declined to go further in in terpreting the remarks of Nor genthau. Neither would he com ment on barrage of questions re- garding the threatened textile strike and the defiance of his ur-cutting and wage-raising or der by the cotton garment manu- lecturers.
 There was the feeling. however, that the president was not con sidering relaxing the order.
 MT Roosevelt likewise was si- lent when interrogated as to whether Gen. Hugh s. Johnson. recovery administrator, laid be- fore him a letter of resignation last week. He dismissed the John- son questions with a smile and q wave of the hand, conveying the impression that harmony had been restored regarding the problems of NRA policy and reorganization,
 The president arranged to meet this morning with Norman H Davis. his rowing ambassador, who is chief American delegate to the Geneva Arms conference. Davis recently returned from Europe.
 Later. MT Roosevelt was to see Dr Felix Frankfurter, head of Harvard University Law school, who recently returned from Eng land where he spent a year as an exchange professor at Oxford Uni versity Dr and Mrs Frankfurter will be overnight guests at the Summer White House.
 The president, who appeared to be greatly refreshed by the almost sharp breezes of Hyde Park, said that if his schedule permitted he would leave here about September IA on Vincent Astor's yacht NourmaHal for Newport, R. l., to view the International races for the America's cup.
 An ardent yachting enthusiast, he explained that he has not mis- sed one of the International races in years.
