'No orders have been issued for federal troops to go to Woon- socket or elsewhere"
 It was explained that the presi- dent could not call troops on the appeal of Governor Theodore F. Green alone when the legislature of the state is in session. The Rhode Island legislature now is sitting.
 That body, it was added, would have to make the appeal through a formal resolution.
 Act Promptly If Requested.
 In sources close to the Summer White House it was clearly indi- cated that MT Roosevelt would act, and act promptly should the legislature put in it's request.
 AS the long distance telephones between Rhode Island and Hyde Park hummed almost constantly there was a tense atmosphere here in expectation of definite action on the part of the president.
 Newspapermen were advised al- so to stand by in anticipation of speedy developments.
