The Hoover Week

For the first time in U. S. history, a President motored from the White House to his office. Reason: Washington's 12-in. snowfall last week. Rather than slog through the drifts from the White House to his office in the State, War & Navy building, just across the side street, President Hoover entered his limousine, drove circuitously around the block.

> On condition there would be "no banquets, no drinks, no speeches," President Hoover last week promised to visit President-Elect Ortiz Rubio of Mexico at Mexico City. Date: indefinite.

> To increase the security of the life of the President, the House was last week asked to increase the White House police force from 39 to 47.

> Last week President Hoover, a true sportsman, declined an offer from Virginia to legalize fishing-out-of-season for him.

> President Hoover last week promoted Fred Morris Bearing, career diplomat of Columbia', Mo., from Minister to Portugal to Ambassador to Peru. He appointed John Glover South of Kentucky to succeed Mr. Dearing at Lisbon. Also appointed: Charles B. Rugg of Worcester, Mass., to be an Assistant Attorney General.
