Summer White House.

DR.. Cary T. .Grayson, President
Wilson's personal physician. will
carefully inspect the next place Sc
lected for the summer White House.
it was learned authoritatfvely last
night.
The naval surgeon. who has had
full charge of the President through
out his seven-month illness. is the
man who will exercise virtual pow
ers of dictation as to his surround
ings during the final and important
recuperative period.
Diplomacy prevented DIR. Gray
sons openly opposing the Woods
Hole project, though he,neyer gave
his assent to II. Backed by the ad-
verse reports as to accommodations
at the Massachusetts, summer colony
for the big White House staff and
at the Crane mansion for the Official
family, he finally gained his point
without stating objections.
Though Woods Hole will not be
the executive center this summer, all
indications point to the location OF
the White House group at some spot
on the Atlantic Coast north of New
York. Owing to the breakdown of
the Woods Hole plan, the departure
from Washington probably will be
delayed until June 1. 90 - -.

MANY SEEK AID

Requests for Admission to
English Miracle Man $ J"
Meetings Numerous.
CARDS TO BE USED
Large Office Force to En-
ploy Entrance Tickets in
Handling Crowds.
CARDS TO BE USED

Applications for admission to the
Christian Healing Mission which
James Moore Hickson. the famous
English healer viii conduct at Trim
ity Church April 20. 81 and 20.
have become so numerous that 1t
was found necessary yesterday to
install q force of secretaries at
Trinity Community House to an
swer inquiries.
Two secretaries win be o., duty
at all times during this week, and
beginning next week the force will
be increased to forty. Three hun
dred admission cards have been is
sued and there are hundreds Of let
ters awaiting attention. Cards will
be sent by mail only to those liv-
ing out Of town. Persons residing
in the city who desire cards will
be required to apply In person or
by proxy.
Open To All Faiths.
Clergymen in each of the TWEEN
ty-six Episcopal churches in the
city are handling applications for
those in their congregations who
are unable to make personal ap-
plica ton. Admission cards have
already been issued to twelve such
persons in Christ Church at George
town.
Although the mission will be
held under the direction of the
Episcopal Diocese of Washington.
the services will be open to the
afflicted and suffering of all
faiths. Hickson received his first
invitation to visit Washington
from the Rev. DR.. Hugh T. Steven
son. pastor of Bethany Baptist
Church. DR.. Stevenson was a pas
senger on the same ship with Hick-
son when the latter came to this
country from England last Octo-
Der. The healer was then on his
way to Detroit to attend the Ma
tional convention of the Episcopal
Church. He practiced his arts be-
fore the convention and received
the official endorsement of that
body.
Relays to Handle Crowds.
Hickson Is said to have refused
ordination in the Church of Eng
land because he did not wish his
gift to become the exclusive prop
erty of any denomination.
One third of the church will be
reserved for we'll persons next
Tuesday. On the following days
only the sick will be admitted.
The church seats 1000 persons, and
by handling the crowd in relays 1t
is expected to accommodate 5000
persons daily. Hickson will make
special address to the general
public at the Church of the Epip-
hany, Wednesday evening, April 81.

merchant agrees to get In line.

and whether the advertiser has
stock enough to justify the sale. II
