He seemed 10 recover. but he sried thai he would not at tend the conference that day Later in the cay a telephone message was sen; firm the meeting inquiring as 10 the coalition of Mir Page.

 Mir Atwood said that the meelin- was the most successful oi Ihe sS.,G cia.on had ever had One of iis mos; |; imporfan. acts was the adoption of a bill whic had been prepared by Mir.

He had not then seen the president with reference 10 ii, but he did so afterward and there have been extensively printed betters by The president and the two secretaries ful- ly endorsing the good roads move ment.
 The proposed amendment. like ;he original bin. provides fer the apror- tionment 10 the states of road fumes annually. the apportionments increes ing through a seven-year period.

decided to recommend that Delegate Charles A. Sulzer be unseated anc that James Wickersham be given that post. Representative Riley J Wilson. of Louisiana, chairman ol the committee, said the fall report will be presented to the House as soon as it is drafted; that the re port will be acted upon within wee if the House is in session at the; time.
 Delegate Sulzer is disappointed. Ee conferred with his attorney Tuesday and may issue statement.
 Judge Wickersham said the resui' is no surprise to him. He plans tt return to Alaska within ten days to open his campaign for reelection
 History of Contest
 Judge Wickersham filed a contest of the 1916 election against Dele gate Charles A. Sulzer, shortly after the latter took his seat in the House of Representatives last April. I'm mediately after the election in No vember, 1916, the returns indicated that Sulzer had been elected Dele gate to Congress over Wickershan by a substantial majority. When the returns had been received from the municipal corporations and the mi, ing creeks and hills and fisherie and other principal points that were accessible, Sulzer's lead was severa hundred. However, a few weeks af. ter election, when the returns came in from the remote precincts Of the far Westward, where the Natives had been voted for Wickcroham m in force, it became evident that on the face of the returns the contest was close It finally became question as to whether the Bristol Bay pre- cincts, where the Australian ballots had not been used, nor any expla nation made of the failure to usf them. should be counted or rejected With them counted "ickershan would have a plurality of about 3C votes in a total of more than 14,000 With them not counted Sulzer would )e victorious with a plurality Of lbout 20 votes. The matter was con 3idered by the Canvassing Board. The opinion of the Attorney General wa supported by authorities in which ht ,ontended that the Australian ballJf law was mandatory a.,d that the votes should not be counted. Not withstanding this, ma5Ority of tho Canvassing Boa d an l1uIced it's in tention of giving certificate of election to Wicker sham. The mat CT was taken into the United State. District Court, and Judge Robert w. Jennings held the jaw 10 be mandatory, and directed the Canvass Ing Board to issue the certificate O Sulzer, after ne had given time for it to appeal from his decision 5ulzer took the oath os )ffice early n April, 1917, and almost constantly ,ince that time has been at Washing on serving industr.ous'y as Dele gate to Congress.
 The opposition to Delegate SulzeI made this contest and other matter of difference between nim and Wick ershamites an issue in the primary election contest last April Most of he Wickersham following voted in the Democratic primary for the pur pose of defeating Delegate sulzer fer renomination. However, MT. Sulze: was renominated for Delegate, re, ceiving very large majority over the vote cast for his Democratic op ponent and Judge Wickersham com bined.
