WASHINGTON. May 2s.-lBy the Associated Press) President Wilson's conception of the campaign issues of 1920 was elucidated today in a letter made public at the White House ex- pressing the presidents "full accord" with the sentiments contained in the platform recently adopted by the Vir ginia Democratic convention.
 The league of nations plank, which declared for ratification of the treaty of Versailles, without reservations which would impair essential integ- rity" was particularly commended by the president. He also singled out for praise the platform declarations on finance and reconstruction which in- cluded a general proposal to revise tax laws and deplored agitation for ian in discriminate bonus' for soldiers of the great war.

 The letter was addressed to Senator Glass of Virginia, who drafted the state platform. and it's publication from the White House generally was regarded as forecasting what the president and his supporters would expect to be writ ten into the party's national platform at San Francisco.
