 UNTIL LATER
Acceptance Speech WilI Not Be Given until Congress Through
 LegiSIating.

l pOSNlnly nOt untli congress n0S 0Q iourned there are others of the ad ministration who wish that the noti. flcation follow shortly after Mr. Hughes has been notified.
 MT. Mccormick was anxious for an early notification. certainly with. in g week after Mir. Hughes made his speech Of acceptance. Subse. Quently Mir Mccormick said
 "The President was impressed by the thought that he ought not to turn to politics until the business ot this congressional session was over.
 "ot course. 1t is possible that the session may last so long as to make 1t impractical to wait for its close for the notification, particular. as the President feels lt to be Of the utmost importance that the child labor bill and the workman's com. pensation bin be passed ct this ses- sion. But the President feels it to be his duty to postpone the notifi- cations ceremony. if possible. until the adjournment of Congress"
 Nevertheless, the President Is pre-. pairing for the notification and has completed the rough draft of the speech he will deliver. That draft presents in the chief executives simple and effective language the achievements Of the Democratic par ty. particularly during a period when all the great powers of the world. save the United Stetes, were at war.
 Topics to Be Taken Uup
 The important matters the Presi- dent proposes to discuss may be grouped as follows:
 l. Preservation of American peace with honor.
 2. Relations and negotiations with foreign powers.
 -3.Measures for the enforcement of American neutrality and the deyel- opment of the American spirit.
 4. Preparedness.
 3. Democratic legislation.
 6. Prosperity as a result of Demo. cratic administrative and legislative activity.
 Will Be 5uale Call
 The Democratic platform. which was partially written and entirely dedicated by the President. covers many or the points which will be re- ferred to in Mir. Wilson's speech. But that platform. while committing the administration and party is not in the keynote shape which is de- sired by Mr. Wilson and his adyis. ors.
 The speech of acceptance. there fore, will be the Democratic bugle call. This will necessitate an im- mense amount Of detail, so the coun- try may expect a lengthy document
 Not only will the President deal with past achievements, but he will outline what he proposes Co do during the remainder of his admin istration and during the next admin istration, if elected.
 Foreign nations will be keenly in terested in the Presidents state ments. since they will forecast the attitude he will adopt toward Ques- tions Of importance to them in the conduct of war
 To Tell of Negotiations
 The part Of the speech which the President will have to write with the greatest care is that dealing with foreign complications. He in- tends to explain hreesults he ob tends to explain the results he ob- Germany. dealing with submarine ac- tivitles. and from his negotiations with the Allies. relating to restric- tions upon American commerce.
 Since his semi-ultimatum was sent last May to Berlin, German submar- ines have been operating in accord. ance with the recognized practices of international law. Indeed, the German officials, notably Foreign Minister Jagow, now are insisting that these practices be observed hy allied war vessels in their pur- suit of German mercantile submar- ines This achievement, the Presi- dent will point out, was produced without involving the country in war.
 Policy Toward Mexico
 The president will insist that the policy he has pursued with refer arce to Mexico is the one best cal. culated to obtain results and to pre-. serve pence He has been laboring to secure respect for our sovereign- ty. our rights and our border citi- zens. in return for which we have and will respect MexicO's sovereign ty
 To overwhelm Mexico by force, the President regards as the wrong way to give it aid. Moreover. it would create a condition of hatred and hos lnty which would react upon the United States.
 The President will argue that the American policy must be of a char acter to dissipate the suspicion that we desire Mexican territory. By so proceeding. he feels that our friend ship with all Latin-Amerlca will be made more secure.
 Concessions From Ailes
 The President will recite the meas ures which have been taken to com pel observance of international law
