Tells President He is Willing to
Remain as Nominee for Re-
serve Board but viii not Ap-
pear Before Committee.
WILSON WILL FIGHT
FOR HIS CONFIRMATION
Executive Certain New Yorker
Will Be Accepted Despite
Committees Objections =
Foes Are Also Confident.

WASHINGTON, July Paul NJ.
Warburg will permit his name to go
before the senate for the federal re-
serve board If Pres. Wilson desires
him TO do so, but has not changed his
determination not TO appear before
the committee on banking and cur
rency. Word to this effect has come
to the white house, it was announced
today, and the white house let ii be
known that Pres. Wilson will stand
pat on the nomination and fight for
the confirmation of Warburg."
The attitude of Warburg was salts
factory to the president, as the eXecu-
tive has no doubt that he can obtain
the confirmation of the New Yorker.
even in the face of an unfavorable
report from the banking committee.
He also has decided TO fight to the
last ditch for Warburg, because he
believes that the banker could not be
repalced on the federal reserve board.
Sens. ShafrOth and Thomas. of Col
oradO, today told the president that
the senate undoubtedly would con-
firm Warburg's nomination and that
an unfavorable report from the com
mittee would have little effect.
Congratulate Wilson.
Scores of kilograms AID letters have
come to Pres. Wilson congratulating
him on his statement relating to
Warburg. Many of them predict that
il will be the beginning of better
understanding between him and the
business interests of the country.
There is not the least possibility
that Mr.. Warburg will be confirmed
by the senate unless he agrees to ap-
pear before the banking and cur
rency committee, was the opinion eX-
pressed by a majority of the mem
bers of the committee when informed
that Warburg had consented to allow
his name to remain upon the list of
the federal reserve board but would
not appear before the committee.
Hitchcock is Surprised.
Sen. Hitchcock OF Nebraska, acting
chairman of the committee, was sur
prised to hear of Warburg's decision.
81 thought our announcement con-
cerning the Warburg case yesterday
closed the matter" said Sen. Hitch
cock. "A careful examination of that
statement will show that the commit
tee is united in it's determination not
TO consider the Warburg nomination
unless the nominee complies with our
wishes. L believe that such a con-
firmation could not possibly be OBJ
tanned"
The Warburg matter was not con-
sidered at toGay's session of the COM
mittee which gave all its attention TO
consideration of the nomination of
Thomas d. Jones of Chicago to be
governor of the board.

ARCTIC TRIP BY
CANADIAN MADE
IN HUDSON SIX
After $4,000 Miles of Service,
Hudson Is Driven 800 More
in Ice ,and Snow,

In our school days during the geog-
raphy class we learned of Great Slave
Lake and Lesser Slave Lake They
seemed to US to be well within the
Arctic circle. That anyone but Es-
KINDS should go there or live there
appeared absurd
A letter recently written, however
by the Freeman Company, Hudson
distributors at Edmonton, Alberta,
Canada, to the Hudson Motor Car
Company. described IN detail an 500
mile trip from Edmonton to Peace
River Crossing and return, in the
middle of winter, The trip was made
by five men in 1913 Hudson "37,"
which had previously covered in ex-
cess OF II. 900 miles in livery service
in and around Edmonton.
The story Of the trip made by the
Hudson over the frozen surface OF
sloughs. muskegs, rutty trails and
for part Of the way over Lesser Slave
Lake reads Ike a romance, In places
the ice in the lake had cracks in 1t
of as much as three feet in width.
one side OF the crack was, however
somewhat lower than the other These
cracks the Hudson took at high speed,
leaping them Ike an ice boat.
The other four cylinder cars, Of q

sayed to tackle the same feat. At

In England the side car has re-
ceived considerable prestige through
its many uses IN the commercial and
pleasure line. It is not an uncommon
sight, especially on holidays, to wit
ness an almost endless line of side
cars, occupied by the owners and their
families, working their way out to-
ward the country, away from the
noise and smoke Of the cities taking
with them the necessaries for an en-
1oyable picnic to themselves.
AS yet the side-car fever has not

prospective sales in view.
