Future Plans Indefinite.
The Presidents plans after his re-
turn to the White House are some
what indefinite at this time, but
before leaving for his long vaca-
ton, he expressed the hope of getting
up to his old home at Hyde Park
on the Hudson as soon as possible
after his return from Hawaii. 1t i:
thought the President will remain
in Washington for 10 days or two
weeks clearing up accumulated rou-
tine business and conferring with his
departmental heads and heads oi
the various recovery agencies before
going to Hyde Park
When the President goes to his
old home on the Hudson it will not
be for the purpose of more vaca-
| ton. He will set up a temporary
White House there and conduct his
business in the same fashion he die
last Summer. How long the Presi-
dent will use Hyde Park as his head
quarters cannot be determined. 1t is
known he will be in no mad rush
to get back to Washington if for nc
other reason than that things will
be more or less upset at the White
House because the executive Office
will be in the course of reconstruc-
tion. and the White House will be
serving as an executive Office as well
as the presidential home.
