windsor, VT. July f1s--Pians to have
Secretary of State Lansing come ~
Cornish for conference with the
President on Germanys last note weres
changed. IL was learned tonight Lam
sing will not leave tomorrow, -
planned
Information also came tonight from
Hariakenden House that the omciAl
text of the German note will not -
brought here by Lansing. as ortginaiiy
planned, but will arrive here tomorrow.
probabi by mail. Several considera-
lions caused change in the plane a.
have Lansing visit the President here.
Tomorrow the President expects ~
finally decide whether 1t will be neces~
sary or desirable for Secretary Lam
sing to remain in Washington or come
on.
Involved In the disarrangement Is
the program of Mr.. Lansings proposed
visit were the Presidents plans for re~
turning to washington III. as now
seems most likely. Mr.. Lansing Is not
brought here, the President will prob
ably return to the capital the latter
part of the week.
Avoid Unseemly Hnste.
The President feels. IL was lefrned
tonight upon the highest aut9orttyt
that there Is nothing serious enouGh
in the situation that requires him 10
hurry back to Washington. On the
contrary. IT is believed. although with~s
out ofIicial confirmation, that miscon-
struction might be placed in some.
sources. or in the public mind. Te
avoid any appearance of summary Ao~
tion or unseemiy haste in the prssent
situation. admittedly OF most sertounE
proportions, is factor not being Dis
regarded.
II appeared not unlikely tonight thak.
the President will preside at NEST
ing d MS cabinet next Friday fos'
initial consideration Of this EOverns
ment's future policy. BY leaving hers
Thursday ii would be possible for him
TO reach Warrington at the usual Tins
for the cabinet meeting. II can b.
stated with certainty that the rres-
ident does not believe a hasty return
10 the capital Is necessary. Whtie
he has taken the position in the deal
ings with Germany that early ana
seeeay- action was desirable, neither
his personal plans nor the delibera-
lions at Washington as to the future
will be prccipitated.
Tonight the President was In COM
lmunicAtion with Washington regards
ing the desirability Of having Mr.
Lansing make the trip. 1t was Boz
|lieved that the President advised that
the secretary's proposed trip should b
abandoned.
Further Note to Germany. y
One OF the prime reasons why the
President halted Mr.. Lansing was that
he feels 1t Is impossible for him "
properly consider the situation withr
out access to many documents. Stst4
papers and legal libraries at washtn9-
ton. He believes that even with Mr.
Lansing here 1t would be impossible
and also undesirable to form plan
OF action without consultation With
the cabinet and without resort to the
great mass of papers. That his return
to the capital was Imperative befcrA
any DEFINITE step can be taken wae
believed patent. u
There were indications tonight that
this government will not let the mats
ter stand In Its present situation with.
out sending further note to Germany.
TT appears probable that q response
OF some sort will be made. but "a
information now points to dfsinclinA-
ton 10 accept . course involving fux<
Their extended parleys.
Today the President appeared ~ H.
In the attitude Of having his GAR
to the ground" waiting for sxprND.
