WASHINGTON, July 9.-As the

is President Wilson's next move.
Democratic leaders, who are attach
ing great Importance to the post
master generals cablegram to the
president expressing willingness to
efface himself from the political
arena by surrendering his cabinet
position, are expecting early action
by the white house.
Democratic leaders, labor repre-
sentatives and others in influential
positions are bringing tremendous
pressure to bear upon the president
to induce him to accept Burleson's
own suggested solution of the
troubles resulting from the fire
directed at the postmaster generals
Office. In the light Of Burleson's
statement yesterday denying that he
had resigned, the question had been
raised today as to whether sug-
gestion Of Willingness to resign as an
act of self-sacriflce is or is not tan
tamount to a resignation.
It is believed that the presidents
decision to accept or decline the
remedy offered by the postmaster
general will follow quickly on his
