nEluincvmrHt after Il conference with
III" president at the White House.
While lie president did not state
wk"n he expected to reach home after
his second trip overseas, Senator Mar
tin gave it as his personal opinion
that it would not likely be earlier
than June l.
President Wilson'S first day at the
White House after his return from
his stay of three months in Europe
WAS full of work.
The president arrived at his office
ahead of any of his secretaries and at
once plunged into work, opening many
letters and kilograms.
In these We're many Endorsements
of the league of nations, coming from
all parts of the country. One, which
the president promptly acknowledged,
was from former Senator Theodore e.
Burton, of Ohio. and read:
"President Woodrow Wilson, the
White House, Washington. D. c.,
League of Nations Union merging
World Court League and New York
Peace Society, welcomes you as re-
co@niZed leader IF league of nations
movement and pledges cooperation in
rallying public opinion and in secur-
ing united action in support of league.

continued three hours. Vice. President
Marshall. who has been presiding at
the cabinet meetings during the presi-

None of the members of the cabinet
woult! say what matters were discuss
ed hut il is certain that the league
of M lions was, and that the president
discussed the proposed meeting with
members of the senate and house for
eign relations committees tonight The
best information is that the president
hasn't yet made up his mind whether
to address congress on the league of
nations plan or content himself with
discussion before the two committees
at the White House.
Ii is also known that he is think
ing Of making one public address be-
