NO SPEECHMAKING YET
President Anxious to Dispose of Child
Labor and Workmen's Compensation
Bills At This session-Disousses
Situation with Vance Mccormick
Plan TO Get Progressive Votes.

Washington, July 17.-President
Wilson decided late today to change
the tentative plans for holding the no
tifaGatiOn ceremonies August 5, be-
cause he desired to postpone them IN
til after the adjournment of congress.
The decision was announced by
Vance Mccormick, chairman of the
democratic national committee, who
issued this statement after a confer
ence with the president:
Il found the president embarrassed
by the thought that he ought not. to
turn to politics until the business of
this congressional session was over.
Of course, It is possible that the ses-
sion may not last so long as to make
il impraCtiCaible to wait until its close
for the notification, particularly as
the president feels it to be of the ut
most importance that the child labor
bill and the wOrlIman's compensation
bill be passed at this session. but the
president feels it to be his duty to
postpone the notification ceremony If
possible until the adjournment of
congress-"
Mr.. Mccormick also announced that
the notification would be at Shadow
Lawn the presidents summer home
in New Jersey. He said Mr. Wilson
wished to dispose entirely Of the bus
mess before congress before throwing g
himself wholly into the political stu
alton.
Went Over Political Situation.
Chairman Mccormick discussed the
entire political situation with the pres
ident. He said that late rthis week
he would name a man TO take charge
Of the headquarters at Chicago and
would complete. organization of a la
Dor bureau. The president and Mr..
Mccormick talked over particularly
the efforts that will be made to Sc
secure the votes of former members
Of the progressive party. During the
day Mr., Mccormick conferred also
with Secretary McAdoo, Postmaster
General BurIeson, Senator James,
chairman Of the notification commit
tee. Senator Walsh and several 9TH
er democratic leaders. He left Wash
return later in tho week. He expects
to complete the selection Of the demo-
cratic congressional committee with
in few days and may place some
progressives on it.
Senator Walsh discussed with Mr.,
Mccormick what steps should be talk
en- to retain control Of the senate
Campaign committees from the SEN
ate and the house will begin active
work In the near future.
How much campaigning Will be
done by Mr.. Wilson will not be decided
until congress ad3ourns. and will de-
pend largely on the status Of the Mex
lean situation an dother pending pub
lie questions. THE president feels
that he must look after the work OF
his office first, and think Of campaign
ing afterwards" said Mr. Mccormick
'T am hopeful, however that later he
may find It possible to make some
speeches"

sidered Too Great Price.


London, July 1.-THE successes OF
the entente allies are following each
other with great rapidity. Today
brought news of further important
gains for them on both the western
and eastern fronts, aroustng enthus-
iaSm among the British public hardly
less TIM that caused by the reception
Of the first news Of the allied offen-
sive.
Ever Deepening Salient.
The despatch Of General Sir Doug
las Haig today shows that the steady
pressure Of the British arms is fore
ing an ever deepening salient into the
German lines, and the commander in
chief for the first time produces evil
denCe in the shape of documents cap
tured from the Germans giving testi-
mony as to the high price the Ger
mans are paying in casualties.
Take 1900 Yards of Second Line.
The British have improved their po-
sItion along almost the whole of their
sauIt 1900 yards of German second
line positions north Of the Bazentin-
Le-Petit wood, a strong German po-
sItiOn at the water lot farm being
longuevaI and GuilIemont besides
completing the capture of the whole

seIIe. These gains bring the British
almost to the crest of the Albert
Plateau, where stretches the German
third line.
Won Linsingen Retires Beyond LIp.a
The news from the eastern front
today was equally important. The
Russian commander, General Kuro-
patkin, has launched an offensive
agafnts field marshal Won Hinderburg

smashed the Teuton front on a width
of mile and penetrated several miles
into their position.
