Lusitania Case
By the United Press Associations.

By the United Press Associations.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 10.-President
Wilson expects to take his prepared
ness program 'squarely before the peo-
pie and ask their moral support. The
first appeal is expected in an address
soon. The White House today stated
that the president expected that teh
International situation would clear rap
idly and then that he would concen-
trate his efforts for national defense.
The president faces an embarrassing
situation in congress- 1t is reported
that the democrats of the centsQI
states are opposed to the program
and the floor leaders are not lending
their support
President Wilson has rejected cer-
tain terms in the Lusitania agree
ment which Secretary Lansing and
Ambassador Won Bernstorff had reach
ed and it is believed that these qdes-
tions related to a disavowal. The
president is not as willing to concede
as much as Secretary Lansing has in
order to prevent embarrassment to
Germany.
After a 15-minute confidential con-
ference with Secretary Lansing this
morning, Ambassador Won Bernstorff
frankly hinted his belief that America
would be pleased with the outcome OF
the situation. The amended agreement
has been forwarded to Berlin and a
formal approval is expected soon.
