PRESIDENT WRITES
HIS ACCEPTANCE
Busy Preparing Speech for
Notification at Shadow
Lawn in August.

President Wilson has begun
work upon his speech of accept
ance of the democratic nomina-
ton for President. He intends to
prepare the speech with consider
able care, that it may become the
real keynote of the presidential
campaign so far as his party IS
concerned. The President will
put in odd hours on the speech
until the day of notification at
Shadow Lawn early in August,
when he will be told officially
that the democrats selected him
as their standard bearer in the
big political fight ahead.
August was tentatively fixed upon as
the date. at conferences today between
the President. Vance Mccormick. chair
man of the democratic national COM
mittee; Postmaster General Burleson and
Secretary McAdoo.
Mr. Mccormick talked with several
democratic leaders before and after see
ing the President.
Inasmuch as the speech is expected
to be a rather long one, covering the
achievements of the party in the past
four years. and foreshadowing its pol
icies on important pending questions,
the President will take unusual care in
the preparation. A part of the speech
will not be completed until after the
presidential candidate of the repub-
licans, Charles E. Hughes. has made his
speech of acceptance. the last day of
this month. at Carnegie Hall. President
Wilson and his party do not yet know
the details of the indictment that will
! be returned against the democrats by
the republican nominee and this will
come when Mr.. Hughes tells the repub-
! Hcan notification committee that he
! formally accepts the republican nomi-
| nation.

| fore him PfeSlCeHt '" ltsOn Will CON-
plete his speech Of acceptance and at
the same time lay before the country
the democratic indictment of the re-
publican party. The speech. therefore.
Will be both an answer to republican
accusations and. in turn. an attack
upon the opposition. at the same time
setting before the country what the
democratic party has done during Its
tenure of office.
The President went out of town Fri
day night on the naval yacht May
flower, mainly for the purpose of hav-
ing an opportunity to work upon the
speech without interruption. The May
flower, with Mrs. Wilson and relatives
of the President and wife aboard
anchored in Chesapeake bay. below the
mouth of the Potomac river. and re-
mained there through Saturday and
Sunday. leaving late yesterday after
noon for the return up the Potomac
