WASHONGTON, June 16.-Presi- dent Wilson asserts that big business is attempting to cause business de- pression in order to put the Demo cratic administration in bad with the people and he has refused the re- quest of Floor Leader Underwood that congress adjourn until after the No vember election. The president has insisted upon immediate action on the antitrust bills and is determin- ed to use all the power of the hd- ministration to force the enactment of the bills into law. ''*' ~
 The president Insists that the busi- ness men of the country shall not be kept in uncertainty any longer and that no permanent prosperity can be built until the trust legislation is de cided
