Mrs. w r. Miller Of South Bend
who represented the state of Indiana
at the national child labor conference
held there last week. was granted a
private audience with Pres't Wilson
She talked with him for 10 minutes
Wednesday morning in his counsel
chamber at the white house.
The audience was arranged by Sen.
John w. Kern, who accompanied Mrs.
Miller and introduced her 10 the
president Mrs. Miller. who returned
late Sunday night after a weeks alb
sence, gives in an interesting way her
impressions o. Wilson.
'Pres't Wilson does not impress one
with sense OF his high mightiness,' "
said Mrs. Miller. He extended a cor
dial hand. when Mr. Kern introduced
me, and if l expected 10 be awed by
his presence. 1 was pleasantly disap-
pointed. He seemed more just a
friendly, kindly mana superior
man, of course and one deeply inter
ested in humanity.
AS all press descriptions of him
have said, there appeared 10 be abso-
lutely no egOtism about him. He gave
me, in my short talk with him, the
same impression that he gave TO that
big audience at the reception for him
in indianapolis. when, after the en-
thusiastic demonstration with which
he was greeted, he said. L wish 10
thank you for the enthusiastic recep-
ton which you have given to the
president of the United States 1t was
not for the reception which you have
given me- and his tone seemed to inn
ply that he knew it was not the in
dividual but the position that the
crowd was saluting. And there was
absolutely no pose discernible in his
attitude. That is the same impress
sion that he gave me in Washington. "
Attends Child Conference.
Mrs. Miller attended the child labor
conference Tuesday and Wednesday
and returned by way of Indianapolis
Thursday on the train which brought
Pres't Wilson There she attended
Saturday a session of the state com
mission on the hours and conditions
of working women in Indiana.
"Of all the speeches made at the
child labor conference" said Mrs.
Miller TO the reporter, was the one
made by Felix T. Adler of the nation
al child labor committee at the Tues
day evening session when he gave tie
annual chairman's address, and
wished his voice might have carried
all over the country. He said that II
seemed such an outrage on the civili-
zation of the United States that there
should have TO be an 18th annual
conference OF a body the purposes OF
which was to wage war TO keep in
dustry from encrOaching upon the
