WILSON WILL NOT
ADDRESS CONGRESS
President Receives Committee
Leaning ON Cane Speaks
With Lodge.

WASHINGTON, Dec. C.-(By the
Associated Press) - Unless Pres't
Wilson changes his plans at the last
moment, he will not address con-
gress personally Tuesday, but will
send a message in written form. 1t
will be read to house and senate
sitting in seIarate session as was
done with the presidents message
last December and as was the GUS
tom until Mr.. Wilson began the
habit of addressing congress per-
sonally.
The president did not make
known his intention to a joint COM
mittee OF the senate and house
which called Monday at the White
House to notify him formally that
congress was in session, but mem
bers of the delegation left with the
impression that he would not ap-
pear before congress in person. The
presidents statement to the COM
mittee was that he would com
municate with" congress Tuesday.
Lodge Spokesman.
Mr.. Wilson received his congress
siOnal visitors in the blue room.
Sen. Lodge Of massachusetts, repub-
lican senate leader. was the spokes-
man, and he and the president met
face TO face for the first time since
the League of Nations covenant and
the peace treaty were defeated In
the senate under Sen. Lodges lead
ership.
The president did not snake hands
with his visitors. They were usher
ed into the blue room by White
House attendants. and then Mr.. VIII
son appeared from an adjoining
room. He wore blue sack suit
and used a cane. On entering the
door he smiled and pointing 10 his
cane. said:
You see. gentlemen. I can not
yet dispense with my third leg"
The committee was at the White
House only a few minutes and the
president remained standing at the
door OF the room during the inter
view. Some visitors said that in
walking his left leg evidenced his
afflicuon and that he kept his left
hand up across his chest.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 6.-To put
into practice his doctrine of consul
tation and good understanding
among public officials. Pres't-elect

tion's history, he attended as SEN

in a short address bespoke for the
coming four years a spirit OF team
work between executive and legis-
lative branches.
Plans Tax Revision.
Later. after conferences with
leaders Of both senate and house, he
announced that he probably would
call a special session of congress
soon after his inauguration TO at
tempt a revision of the nations tax
schedules. Both in his private con-
situations and in his address in the
senate he asked that the three
months remaining 10 the present
congress be used without attempt at
routine and lay the groundwork
for constructive legislation after
March 4.
Foreign relations and the League
Of Nations were discussed by Mr..
Harding. along with domestic prob
lens and possible cabinet selections
in his long string Of conferences
with senator's and representatives.
The ranking national leaders Of his
party outside OF congress also were
present at the consultations, which
will be continued Tuesday.
With his departure for Marion
late Tuesday afternoon the prest-
dent-elect will bid goodbye 10 actual
participation in the proceedings OF
the senate. although he will retain
