Summer Wanderings

The members of the Cabinet, well scattered during the hot season at the Capital, are pursuing many types of rest and labor.

Mr. Kellogg keeps himself at Washington, thinking nothing of occasional trips to Minnesota when opportunity offers.

Mr. Mellon shuttles back and forth between his rented summer home at Southhampton, L. I., and the Capital, where debt-funding business requires him again and again.

Mr. Weeks, recovering from a severe illness, abides and probably will abide for some time at his home in Massachusetts, while Acting Secretary Dwight Filley Davis carries on his duties in Washington.

Mr. Sargent summers restfully* at his home in the hills of Vermont.

Postmaster General New labors on at the Capital, snatching such intermittent vacation as he can.

Naval Secretary Wilbur has returned to his habitual residence in California.

Mr. Work has returned to the Capital from five weeks' travels in the West, where he inspected immigration projects, Indian Reservations and other concerns of the Interior.

Mr. Jardine, who has made a grand tour of the agricultural West, completed it last week and went to Wisconsin for a rest.

Mr. Hoover has for some time been at his home in California, but probably will return to Washington in time to handle any emergency arising out of a coal strike.

Mr. Davis last week departed for European study later and immigration condition there.

* Said a political writer in the New Republic: "Everybody in touch with the Department of Justice knows that Donovan [first Assistant Attorney General] is running the works. John Garibaldi [Sargent] signs on the dotted line and is sufficiently intelligent not to attempt to show initiative."
