PAGE 14 G. 0. P. LINEUP TO BE OUTLINED BY PRESIDENT National Reorganization to Be Considered by Hoover at Week-End Camp. BY LAWRENCE SULLIVAN United Pres* Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, Aug. 16.—Plans for reorganizing the Republican na tional committee at Its meeting here early next month are to be can vassed informally by President Her bert Hoover this week-end in his Rapidan fishing camp in the Blue Ridge mountains. Representative Franklin Fort of New Jersey, secretary of the Repub lican national committee, will be one of ten guests in the presidential retreat. Fort recently has completed a ser ies of conferences with party leaders throughout the east and is prepared to report to the chief executive on the prospedcts for the preliminary organization work which must get under way this fall in preparation for next year's congressional cam paign. Huston to Be Topic Fort, among others, has brought the President his first consensus of party opinion on the President’s selection of Claudius H. Hu*ton of Tennessee for the national chair manship. Although this selection never has been confirmed by White House offi cials, party leaders are convinced that Huston’s selection merely is a matter of balloting by the national committee. Two influential Hoover lieutenants have carried word to the White House this week that Huston’s elec tion would be well received by the party leaders everywhere. The White House party planned to leave for the Virginia camp in mid-afternoon, to be at the moun tain top lodge for dinner. Envoy to Be Guest William P. MacCracken, assist ant secretary of commerce, who has just returned from a sixty day inspection of European avia tion establishment, and Henry P. Fletcher. United States ambassa dor to Italy, also will be the Presi dent’s guests. Other members of the party will be Ernest L. Jahncke assistant secretary of the navy; Captain Allan Buchanan, the White House naval aid; James Lo gan, New York; Mrs. Buchanan i and Mrs. McCracken; George Ak erson and Lawrence Richey, White House secretaries; and Lieu tenant Commander Joel T. Boone, the President’s physician. Mrs. Hoover, who has been in camp for two weeks with her younger son Allan, probably will return with the party Monday morning. The usual week-end program will | be interrupted Saturday morning ■■ by a motor trip to Madison, Va., j ten miles down the mountain, where Virginians were gathering to i extend the formal welcome of the | old dominion and to thank the I President for having selected the j state for “the summer White j House.” BRITISH STRIKE ENDS Half Million Idle Cotton MUI Work ers Are Elated.
