P: To his Rapidan camp went President Hoover for a short weekend. He found his son Herbert who is fighting off tuberculosis "doing very nicely." Mrs. Hoover developed a slight cold.
P: Critics elicited an answer from President Hoover. To those in the U. S. who complained that his naval reduction program would add to unemployment, he replied that the Navy's personnel would be decreased not by ousting sailors but by cutting new enlistments.
