WOOL On all other schedules there is
substantial agreement between the
President and Congress.
The President has been told that
either free wool or free sugar might
pass, but that both could not.
This was the status today of the
informal tariff conferences between
the President and members of Con-
gress.
The President canvassed the situa-
ton first today with Representative
Broussard, senator-elect from Louis
lana. Mr. Broussard told the. Presi-
dent that while his constituents
could stand tariff cut they believed
the sugar industry of Louisiana
would be destroyed by the complete
removal of the duty.
The President has been canvassing
the Senate and has a general idea of
the extent to which free sugar or
free wool bill would be opposed. He

Once Leehan broke into her room
unexpectedly. She had her hand on

WATTS'S 'LOVE AND LIFE"
BACK IN WHITE HOUSE

WASHINGTON, April A. The
peripatetic painting, Love and
Life" the beautiful allegorical work
by George Frederick Watts, once
more reposes in an honored niche
in the White House. The varied ca
reer of this painting in regard to
White House residence extends over
seventeen years.
This picture. painted in 1884, was
presented to the national govern
ment by Watts as a tribute of his
esteem and respect for the 4, United
States, and was accepted by virtue
OF a special act of Congress. This
was during the second administra
ton of President Cleveland, and he
ordered it hung in his study on the
second floor of the White House.
The two figures of Love and
Life" are entirely nude and the pub
locations of reproductions of 1t
throughout the country awoke the
protests of purists,
Finally the Clevelands yielded to
the force of public opinion as attested
in the petitions and sent the Offend
ing masterpiece to the Corcoran Art
Gallery.
When Theodore Roosevelt became
President he brought the art exile
back to the White House. The hue
and cry arose again, and he sent it
back to the Corcoran Art Galley. only
to bring it back again toward the
close of his administration to hang
in the White House once more
The Tafts, failing to see the artis-
tic side of the painting, had it carried
back to the Corcoran Art Gallery.
There it seemed destined to stay.
The other day Mrs. Woodrow Wilson,
accompanied by her daughter, Flea
nor. both artists of merit, toured the
corcoran Art Gallery They were
shown Love and Life" and told the
tragic story of its wanderings be-
tween the White House and the Cor
coran Art Gallery
Mrs. Wilson thereupon requested
the painting to be returned to the
White House.

WASHINGTON, April 4.--President
Wilson would like to see free sugar,
but recognizes that a concession may
be necessary to Southern planters,
and would consent to a duty, of prac-

vided all duty would be removed
within three years. This would mean
for the present duty of LEO to all
countries except Cuba.

agreement with the Louisiana sena-
