STATE OF WAR MAY
SOON Be DECLARED
CABINET HOLDS MEETING
TO DISCUSS PLANS FOR
COMING SESSION.
WILSON'S MIND
SAID TO BE OPEN
Preponderance of Opinion Is
That Strong Action Will Be
Requested.

Washington, March 28.--With the
asmy, navy and industrial prepared
ness measures to meet German as-
gression going forward as rapidly as
possible President Wilson and his
cabinet yesterday took up considera-
ton Of further steps to follow the
convening Of Congress in extra ses-
SION next Monday.
The president has not yet written
the message he will deliver Tuesday
or Wednesday. and is said to have
reached no final conclusion as to just
what recommendations to make. Be-
cause Of possible changes in the sit
uation, he is not expected to put the
address In final shape until the last
moment.
There is no doubt in the minds Of
administration officials that what
ever may be its details, its policy laid
before Congress will be both vigorous
and comprehensive. The general opin-
on after the cabinet meeting appar-
entity was that the programme most
likely to be followed by Congress will
include q declaration that state of
war exists between the United States
and Germany, an authorization for
the president to use the armed forces
of the nation to protect its rights,
the granting Of large credit to the
government to carry out its policy,
passage Of censorship and espionage
bills and provision for the employ
ment Of additional secret service
agents.
No final decision has been reached
as to whether financial assistance
should be given the entente allies.
though q strong sentiment for such
step exists among government Off
cials, If this is done the govern
nent probably win deal directly with
the other governments concerned and
not through agents.

mean ruin to the farmers Of the
