the Treasury Andrew W .Mellon
brought his annual vacation to a
close with participation In a min
or explosion, a ride in a rum run
ner'a automobile and a conference
at the federal reserve bank.
"The financier, who is 71, was
reported very much tired when he
went away, but he seemed alert
and much lm proved In health on
his return. His appearance was
that of a man keen to set back
to his office.
', Out early en deck, which stew
ards said - was his custom, he
found reporters and photogra
phers awaiting him when the lin
er Conte Blancamano slowed
down at quarantine.
'As he turned- to face the cam
era battery a flash light bulb
blew up, the particles of glass
showering the secretary.
' The Injury was a slight cut on
the right hand which he minimiz
ed while photographers complet
ed taking their "pictures.
"Any questions you might ask
me." he told would be interview
ers "must have been answered
from the other side. For ten
days I have been on this ship do
ing nothing. Before that I was
resting for ten days on the French
Riviera. I have no news."
