Goes TO ROME JAN. 3
Wilson Is Expected to Arrive in Italy
On That Date-EarI Of Derby j
j.. Gives Dinner in Honor of Mr..
and Mrs. Wilson. 49,

Paris, Dec. 23.-According to an
announcement made in the Italian
newspapers, President Wilson will ar
rive in Rome on Jan. 3. -.
President, and Mrs. Wilson were
guests of honor at a dinner given at
the British embassy by the Earl OF
Derby, British ambassador. Among
the guests were Count Romanones,
Spanish premier; Vittorio Orlando,
Italian premier; Baron Sonnino, Ital-
ian foreign minister; General John J.
Pershing, Major General Sir David
| Henderson, former president of the
British air council;. Admiral w. S.
Benson and Col. E. M. House. Many
prominent figures in political life
| were present.
Visits NeuiIIy Hospital.
President Wilson visited the Red
Cross hospital at Neuilly, where he
shook hands individually and talked
with 1900 badly wounded Americans,
for the most part survivors of the Cha
teau Thierry action. He spent more
than four hours in the hospital, visit
ing every ward and stopping at every
bedside. Later he visited the French
hospital Val de Grace.
| Speaking of his experiences at the
American hospital the President said ::
| i went through the American hos
pital at Neuilly with the greatest in
terest and the greatest satisfaction. I
found the men admirably taken care
! OF and almost without exception in
excellent spirits.
Few Look Really III.
| "Only a few of them looked really
i'll, and I think that their mothers and
their friends would have been entire:
ly pleased by their surroundings and
by the alert look in their eyes and the
keen interest they took in everything
about them.
Il am sure that they will go back
to their loved ones at home with a
new feeling of Joy, alike in their re-
covery, and in the fine service they
have been able to render"
Going to the American hospital
with the expectation of remaining an
hour, the President found four hours
all too short, as he felt that he could
not leave without speaking with every
man, and he expressed regret only at
his inability to clasp the hand of
every American soldier in France.
The President looked tired and
worn when the ordeal was finished,
for Notwithstanding the cheerfulness
Of the men and the care which they
were receiving, there were many at.
fecting cases i'm the wards.
