SENATORS CONFER
ON RESERVATIONS

Democratic members of the Senate
Foreign Relations Committee went
into conference today to consider just

1t was believed that the Senators
would remain in conference until a
substantial agreement had been
reached on the reservation program.

President Wilson was so improved
in condition this morning that, on his
insistence, his physicians permitted
him to write q letter to Secretary
Lane with regard to the threatened
disruption of the Industrial confer

The President sent word through
