WILSON DROPS
Isolation HABIT
Sends for Gallinger, Knox and
Lodge for Confer
cnce.

WAsHiNGroS, May l9.--President Will
son intends no longer to pursue a policy
Of Isolation at the White House. This
was plainly indicated by his action last
night in sending for Senators Gallinger.
Lodge and Knox and by what developed
at their talk at the White House, 1t was
made plain that the President hence
forth intends that Senators of both sides
go over with him plans that are de-
veloping for the conduct OF the war.
Evidence of this policy was afforded
in the suggestion by the President that
IL any other Senators OH the Republican
side desired to be enlightened he would
be glad to see them. This possibly was
the most significant feature OF last
nights conference. Naturally the same
invitation has been extended to the mem
bers OF his own party. whose invitations
to the White House have been almost as
infrequent as those issued to Repub-
licans.
The isolation of Woodrow Wilson
since the war began has been politica
phenomenon in the opinion of many
noticeable when he was a peace Presi
dent has greatly accentuated since hi
became a war President. The President
has given up going to the White Hous'
office except oil Cabinet days, and his sc
clusion at the White House has grown

Democrats have Also Chafed.

Visits from Senators and Representa-
tives engaged In the important work OF
putting through legislative war meas
eures have been more infrequent since
the war began than at any time since
MIR. Wilson became President. This has
not been because of any lack OF desire
on the part OF the leaders of his own
party to confer with MIN. In fact. they
have chafed as much as the Republica ms
under this growing aloofness OF the
President.
In the absence Of Invitations 20 confer
with the President Democratic leaders
have shown hesitancy to invade the
White House precincts. Naturally with
unparalleled legislation pending there
have developed extraordinary sltus tons.
Leaders of the Democrats in the Senate
and the House in charge Of the vast war
