WILSON'S PERSONAL PLEA LIKELY TO BEAR FRUIT Continued from page 2. laration that congress must act on the currency question. They believe it sets forth the president's position as being so positive On that point that he would call another extra s-ession of congress if necessary to dispose of the matter. lAs soon as the bill is introduced both senate and house banking and cumncy committees will get down to work and early reports on both sides are expected. Senator Owen expects to put the bill in Tuesday. Although a house caucus has been called for this we k, it is probable that it will not tak-e any definite action on the currency bill. The caucus was called to consider the question of a reform of the appropriation system by the initiation of some sort of a budget plan and while the currency question may be discussed, action is likely to be deferred until a special caucus is called later. For Emergency Issue, t>v> , T%Yv>ciripr>t made it clear in in JL w formal talks with callers today that he regarded the Owen-Glass bill as primarily an instrument through which an emergency currency of $500,000,000 would be obtained, me pro vi&iua Tetire the 2 per c?nt bonds which now secure $712,000,000 of currencyhad been omitted from the bill, according to information at the White House, chiefly because no plan had been perfected to substitute this amount of currency, which the volume of business indicated ought not to be withdrawn. It was pointed out that an elaborate machinery would be required to refund the 2 per cent bonds at the same time the $500,000,000 issue of federal reserve notes was being supervised by the federal reserve board. Thp president indicated that he x felt this was a great problem in itself and he has taken the view that for the present the subject of retiring the bonds should be treated independently. Criticisms of the bill that have reached administration officials from bankers centre largely on the absence of any provision for the retirement of the bond secured currency. Representative Glass, who conferred briefly with the president before the latter went to tlie capitol, is prepared I to champion a provision for the retirement of the 2 per cent bonds by refunding them with 3 per cents. Although shorn of some of the novelty that attended his first appearance, when he upset presidential traditions of more than a century, today's visit of the president to congress took on a deeper significance. On his first visit he delivered a message* long"'mncr tV> o r>a rrvin ?? out CHillUljJCllCll, m QiUj) vw. - ^ of the party's pledges for immediate revision of thje tariff. His address today was an appeal to every member of the house and senate to lay aside personal considerations and sacrifice comfort and even health, it necessary, 10 secure ai a revision and reform of the national banking system. Only in' that way, he declared, could the country secure the benefits of the tariff revision soon to be completed. Dnty is Clear. "It is perfectly clear that it is our duty to supply the newx banking and currency system the country needs, and that it will immediately need it more than ever," said President Wil son. "Shall we hasten to change our tariff laws, and then be laggards about making it possible and easy for the country to take advantage of the change? There can be only one answer to that question. We must act now, at whatever sacrifice to ourselves." The vigor and strength of his short message held rigid attention of his large audieence throughout its deliv^ "TT Ac <->? Viic firct nnnoaranrp hp J Xir V/U JULIO Ai* ?-*Jf^vv??w?4?w fore congress, the chamber was filled with senators and representatives, galleries were crowd-ed with men and women of the official set, and corridors about the gallery doors were jammed with those unable to gain entrance. The president gave no direct indorsement to the Glass currency bill, which is to form the basis for the democratic revision of the banking laws, but in indirect language made it known that it had been prepared with his counsel and approval. Committeesc Ready. "The committees of congress to which legislation of this character is referred have devoted careful and dispassionate study to the means of accomplishing these objects," he said in conclusion. "They have honored me by consulting me. They are ready to suggest action." There were many absentees among the house members and whole rows of vacant seats in the r-ar of the ha1 were empty. Mrs. Wilson and two of the president's daughters, with a party of friends, took seats in the executive gallery and a sprinkling of dipI lomats occupied seats in the diplomatic gallery n-earby. On the floor, Secretary McAdoo and ' Secretary Wilson were the first to ; take places in the row of seats rejserved for the cabinet members. Seiprctnrv Houston and Secretary Lane I i joined them a little later. President Wilson motored to the | capitol through a steady downpour of rain, accompanied only by S-ecreI tary Tumulty and a secret service man. He reached the capitol at 12:55 o'clock and went directly to Speaker IC'ark's office, where he was met by th-e joint committee and escorted to the rostrum in the hall of the house. Vice President Marshall appeared at the centre door of the hall and at the head of the senators, marching two by I *?. -i c\ c\ r\ i_ m"U ^ two, just aner iz.au u ciucis.. m-e vice president-, took a seat beside Speaker Clark and the senators took i * the seats, in the front rows of the democratic side. Speaker Clark announced Repre- j sentatives Underwood, Fitzgerald and ! I Mann as members of the committee' to escort President Wilson to the i chamber. The vice president an' nounced Messrs. Kern, Reed and Gal- j linger as the senate members. Announced in House. Just before 1 o'clock the house: doorkeeper dashed into the chamber j and shouted: "The president of the United j iStates." Galleries and the floor arose as the president walked into the speaker's lobby and with a nod to the speaker and the vice president, mounted the steps to the clerk's desk. "I present to the Sixty-third congress the president of the United States," announced Speaker Clark. Addressing first the two presiding officers, the president turned to the desk and in a low, even voice tnat was never raised, but which* penetrated clearly to every ear in the! chamber, began the reading of his address. Not a stir from the audience interrupted. At 1:10 o'clock the president had finished reading his address and left the 'house chamber. It had taken the president a little more than nine minutes to read his address and its conclusion was greet "J V ? - A<rvr\loi1C?Q Pafrtro fVlfl cu. uy a iuuiiu ui a^piautj^. mv, president left the chamber he shook ! hands with Speaker Clark and Vice President Marshall. The speaker dismissed the joint session and the senators filed out to return to their chamber. The house adjourned at 1:11 until 12 o'clock Tuesday. The minority attitude towards the president's currency plans were reflected in a statement made by Representative Mann of Illinois, as leader of the republicans. "ine presiUCUL a mcBBagc 13 a. line example of classy English, hut there is nothing more to it unless it be considered as a threat that patronage will be withheld until a banking and currency bill is passed. I wish to co operate with those in favor of passing a reasonable banking and currency bill, but the president evidently intends to treat the subject as one purely partisian, and he did not take the trouble even to discuss or analyze the principles involved in banking and currency legislation. He erred in saying that the committees of congress 1 3 am/) r\T?AT\n r?Arl aau uuusuiieu w ilu UIIU auu pi^ai&u i a bill. The committee of the house has no bill before it and has had no 'meetings to consider a bill. Outside ; of dealing out a little bunk about new 1 freedom, there was nothing to the message. That was sophomorical. "The real need of a currency bill is not because new business which will come with the new tariff laws, but with a threat of disaster impending over the country by reason of tariff legislation and democratic incompetency. The presid-ent did not do congress tne courtesy 10 express auy opinion concerning the principles up;on which a banking and currency bill j should be based. So far as we have | yet been able to learn the bill will be in the main practically stolen from the Aldrich monetary commission with a few radical provisions taken from the Bryan platform.

He telephoned the armory and finally got one man on the wire who :ould talk English. "Why, don't you come to our show?" areneker asked plaintively. "We want to," was the reply, "but we can't because the gen-eral isn't there to give us marching orders." Fifteen minutes later Greneker was in the armory. Standing in the line ready for marching orders he found 200 soldiers in khaki uniforms and as many marines in blue. "Where is Gen. Solar?" inquired greneker, meaning Luis More y del >olar, commander of artillery. "Gen. More, you m?*n," said the one English speaking member. "We have ao idea and without his orders we ;annot march."* "Oh, yes, you can," Greneker assured him." Tell your men to fall in and follow me and it will he all right." Gen. Greneker mounted his untrustworthy taxicab and at the head of the :olumn crossed to Fifth avenue and advanced up the avenue, At Forty-second street a traffic policeman permitted Gen.
