on the peoples decision.
The presidents friends say this is
agreeable to him and they believe that
liz necessary he may even stand for re-
election in 1920 with the league Of ma
tions covenant as the issue.
Subject for Conjecture.
What he will do now directly to the
resolution and signed document present
ed by Senator Lodge was the subject Of
much conjecture today.
He is reported extremely bitter about
the action of the republican leader, be-
lieveing it may have serious effect
abroad. That the president will counter
with strong reply when he speaks,
together with former President Tart in
New York tonight, is accepted as GER
tain. 1t win be his last appeal to the
Americans from his own shores before
his return for the peace conference.
From 5;15 to 6:15 o'clock the presi-
dent will stop at Philadelphia to pay
his visit to his little grandson, Wood,
row Wilson Sayre.
Will Leave by Morning.
The president s party goes aboard the
George Washington after the presi.
dents address at New York, but the
time Of sailing depends on tide, it was
said at the White House, If conditions
are favorable she may slip out Of the
harbor during the night. 1t is certain
that the big ship will "shove off" by
early morning.
In the presidents s party will be Mrs
Wilson, Former Attorney Gregory, vino
will act as official counsel to the presi,
dent; his physician, Rear Admiral Cary
Grayson and his staff Of personal
stenographers and clerks.
Although the president has beer
working at top speed, not all Of the ex
ecutive business has been cleared up
He will work on the train enroute tc
New York, but on the ocean trip the
president expects to rest as much as
possible.
