President Wilson stated today that he
hopes to take action on the Union station

go into details as to the probable line Of
his action. Attorney General McRey-
nolds is to confer with the President this
afternoon. at which time he will take up
a number Of matters with the chief
executive The plaza case may be one
Of them. The regular cabinet meeting is
to be held tomorrow morning, and if the

still strong that the President will ap-
