During the past few months the Secretary has had the opportunity and pleasure of meeting several members of the class, including Allison, Gray, D. L. Smith, Watson, Woodcock, and Wright. D. L. Smith had a severe illness in the spring, but now seems to be fully recovered.

Gray, who has retired, has a delightful summer home, "Treasset," near Two Lights, Cape Elizabeth, Me.; the Rowes and the Grays exchanged visits, traveling over 20 miles although their summer homes are less than half that distance via the Atlantic ocean.

Mr. and Mrs. Wright entertained the Secretary and his wife very pleasantly one day in August. The Wrights are justly proud of their son Wallace of the class of 1919, now a professor of economics in lowa'State University. He holds the degree of Doctor of Philosophy.

Among the week-end guests at the President's camp on the Rapidan over the Sunday of August 21 was Robert Lincoln O'Brien, chairman of the United States Tariff Commission.

Charles M. Smith has announced his candidacy for the Republican nomination for lieutenant governor of Vermont. "Mr.Smith represented Rutland in the Housein 1931 and was senator from Rutlandcounty in 1927 and 1929. In the last legislature, he was chairman of the ways andmeans committee of the House, which committee had much to do with the passage ofthe income tax. Mr. Smith declared in astatement in reference to his candidacy: 'Iwould like to see this law (income tax law)which is progressive and brings us into linewith other states, thoroughly tried out. Itshould bring relief to the fanner and homemaker, as well as owners of all real estate.'He also declared his interest in reductionof the taxation burden." [Mr. Smith won out. Editor.]
