WILSON NOW WALKS
FOR HIS EXERCISE
President, Greatly Improved,
Has Arranged Message for
Opening of Congress.

President Wilson Is again walking
considerably as n part of his daily
exercise. and the fact had raised the
possibility of his appearing before
Congress and reading his message
next month. 1t was stated positively
today, however, that the dramatic
spectacle of his appearance in wheel
chair will not be seen.
1t was officially stated today that
while the President has not begun the
actual writing of his address to Con-
gress. he has arranged 1t in his
mind" and that the mechanics of
putting it into type will take only a
short time. 1t was estimated the
message will be comparatively brief.
Not only has the President strolled
about the White House during the
week. but he has walked TO and from
his automobile each day. He has
walked from his suite to the eleva-
tor, and then out to the roadway. He
climbs into the automobile with only
the aid of his cane. His step is not
frm, but he has shown much improve
mcnt.
