WILSON TO TRY TO

(By Associated Press. !

ltti VIZ <19oVS41SOU 1FGSSS.J
WASHINGTON, Feb. 26.-President
Wilson will go to the capitol today il
his engagements permit to meet sen
ators and discuss the legislative situa.
ton with them.
In addition to urging prompt action
at this session on the big appropria.
ton bills President Wilson will en-.
deavor to expedite the passage of the
oil leasing and water power bills, the
provision continuing the United States
employment service and Secretary
Lanes bill to appropriate 100000, 900
for the reclamation Of land to be open.
ed to soldiers and sailors.
The President, 1t was explained, de.
cided to go to the capitol in prefer.
ence to calling members OF congress
away from their duties to see him at
the White House. He planned to do
everything possible to aid the passage
of imperative legislation in the few
remaining days Of this session now
that he has determined not to call an
extraordinary session until after his
return from Europe, which probably
will not be earlier than June 1.
An official denial was made today
OF reports that the President desired q
vote,of approval for the principal Of a
league of nations. It was pointed out
that the league was to be a constitu-
ent part of the peace treaty which
would come up for ratification at the
next session. ~
The President was said to be anxious
to make another public address before
returning to Europe but was not GER
tain that he would have the time as
his stay is limited by plans already
made for him to sail March S. He
probably will not make decision as
to speech until the legislative situa-
ton clears and he can estimate the
time available to him.
