The sturdy firemen ranged themselves
beneath the windows and told the par.

Washington, Dec. S.-Facing big

refused today to send a special message
TO congress, urging that women be en-.

He declined also to incorporate such
a recommendation in one of his regular

Until congress requests it he added,
he could not recommend the creation Of
"a special house committee to investi-

The suffragette conference was pic

the White House in the face Of an icy
rain, determined to force the president
TO speak.

his big desk and received the commit
