WILSON SAYS NO
TO SUFFRAGISTS
President Refuses to Support
Amendment to Constitution
on This Subject
BUSY DAY FOR HIM
IN NEW YORK CITY
Has Many Engagements Preceding
His Address in
Evening at City.
Now York, Jan. 127.?President Wilson
refused to-day to support the
movement to the Constitution providing
for woman suffrage. He spoke
briefly to two hundred members of
the Congressional Union for Woman
Suffrage, and told them that he felt
the suffrage question should he dealt
with by each individual State.
The President received the suffagists
after they had waited for him,
for more than an hour at a hotel.
I iff it" \ve"9 made by Mrs. Mary I
1\ : , \.-;f of a Columbia University
f or, to cross-examine the Preside
: ? n his position met with failure.
I to refused courteously to reply to her
quest i ms.
The President apologized t > the women
for not seeing them earlier, but
to''1 them ho ho i been at work since
arriving in Nc.v York. He added that)
it "may be that my mind works slow-J
ly, but I have always thought that [
here wore things that should bo built
rlo.vly, and, therefore, made more last,
ing. I may be a little old fashioned
in my view that the suffrage question j
should be handled by the State."
The President admitted that lie had
promised o discuss with the leaders
of Congrss the question of sucraerc.!
hut that other matters had come up
which, he thought, should take preference.
"There are things that cannot wait,'!
said the President. "Action in great'
constitutional matters must be deliberate."
Mr. Wilson promised again that he
would discuss the subject with the
members of Congress as soon as possible.
He declared, however, that he I
was still convinced that the suffrage
issue should be worked out by the!
States. He added that he saw no reason
for the women to be discouraged
by the progress being made.
The President arrived here at 6 A.
M. He was accompanied by Mrs. Wilson,
his secretary, Joseph Tumulty,

remained on board the train until 8
A. M., when a committee from the
Railroad Business Association arrived)
to escort them to the Waldorf Astoria ,
Hotel. 1
Mr. Wilson planned to remain at
the hotel until noon and then go to
Aealian Hall to receive a large num- ;
tier of clergymen who desired to pre:sent
an address expressing their ap- ]
preciation of his efforts for peace.
Trie main purpose of the President's
visit is to deliver before the railway
Business Association to-night the
speech which is to open his campaign
for preparedness, the first of a series
of speeches which he will make on
that subject. Although only 1,272
seats are availabl for the dinner,
I
more than ?,000 applications have
been received.
After addressing the railway men
the President has arranged to speak
at a banquet of Motion Picture Board
of Trade of America. Mr. Wilson expects
to leave Now York for Washington
at midnight to-night, and to
leave the Capital to-morrow night for
his Western tour.

London.?Experts and self-styled
experts on the economies of war, and
the law of maritime wi\r on commerce,
mobilized in the House of Commons
for the eagerly awaited debate on the
measures to be taken for a blockade
against Germany.
Critics of the government's policy
and its defenders were equally insistent
on the necessity of enforcing a
"blofkhulo as eifective as possible" but <
they joined issu^ on the best ircthcjit*
of enforci this, n keen desire beinj?

interference with neutral commerclfiMB
The demand was geric ral, however, I
for groat strirgc uoy in the prevention
of (Tods uffs and other conditional
contraband pas ing by neutral countries
into Germany.
/
The '.(bate hinged on a motion in- ,
trodueed with the bbjoet of obtaining
from the government a full statement
of the facts and giving opportunity
to deal with most of the aspects of
tuo recent complaints against the foreign
office. The motion follows:
"That this house having noted the
volume of imports i nto neutral countries
bordering on enemy territory of
goods essential to the enemy for the
prosecution to enforce as effective a
blockade as possible without interfering
with tiie normal requirements of
those neu'ral countries for Internal
consign ption."
The debate in the house is attracting
widespread attention, being expected
to bring to culmination the bitter
controversy which has been going
on in the press relative to the strengthening
of the measures taken to-jjj>
strict Germany's foreign trade.
Sir Edward Grey, the foreign secretary,
is expected to submit a statement,
but thus far it has not been indicated
whether the government purposes
to continue to act under the
present orders in council or to substitute
an effective blockade.
Some indication's of the government's
probable attitude, however, Ts
given by the official figures issued to
controvert assertions of certain newspapers
that huge quantities of supplies
are reaching Germany through
neutral countries. The impression prevails
that the government considers
the present custom reasonably satisfactory.
