Protectors Of Country's Resources Are
Favorable to Washington as

Washington probably will be the meet
ing place Of the National Conservation
Congress. This was stated last night
when members of the executive commit
tee had ended visit to the White House
and had conferences with Thomas Grant.
Granville NJ. Hunt, and ]. F. Slaven.
representing the Washington Chamber OF
Commerce, who showed the visitors the
advantages Washington has for enter
tanning conventions.
Members of the executive committee of
the National Conservn,fon Congress
called on President Wilson to tell him
that this organization is strictly nom
political. and that 1t has no candidates
for Office. They assured Mr.. Wilson that
they had no axes to grind. other than
to insist upon the conservation of the
natural resources of the country. 1t was
pointed out that the congress has no
wish to build fence around" the coun-
try's resources, and that a reasonable
and wise conservation is all that It ad-
vocates. The delegation was assured Of
a friendly reception by the numerous ut
terances on conservation made by Pres.
ident Wilson in the campaign.
The members of the committee who
called were Thomas Shipp. of Indianap-
oils: A. w. White. of Kansas City; Lee
Warsham. of Atlanta: B. n. Baker, Of

the coming of the first balmy breezes.
cats are most wont to gather in courts,
al.ys and by-ways and sing their mourn

considers beautiful spring song, is a men,

Spring also makes the dogs eccentric.

ACTING HEAD UNEASY.

With Secretary Of State Bryan off on
a speech-making tour in the West, and
old foreign policies being overturned at
the White House. a most unusual situa-
tion exists at the State Department.
Huntington Wilson is now Acting Sec
retary of State, but is said to be In a
rather uncomfortable position. At Mr..
Rryan's request, Mr.. Wilson Cancelled
his bookings to sail for Europe on March
is, and consented to remain at his post
at the department indefinitely. He is
now being subjected to the sensation
Of sitting in the seat OF authority. and
seeing the Chinese policy. of which he
was one of the directors in the Taft
administration, thrown overheard by
President Wilson. He was, however.
called into consultation by Mr.. Bryan
in his conference with the bankers rep
resentatives, in what proved to be the
obsequies over the Chinese policy.
Mr.. Bryan is to remain away for more
than a week longer and Mr.. Wilson will
be Secretary OF state without any con-
troll over the conduct Of the foreign
relations Of the nation.
