President Calls Congress
Leaders Into Conference
Washington. Feb. 13.—Talk of com
promise between President Wilson
end leaders in Congress who want
drastic reorganization of war activi
ties has been in the air at the Cap
itol. Evidences of the chance of an
agreement on prospective legislation
were seen by leaders In the trend ot
e\cnts within the last few days.
Thf. President, according to word
at the Capitol to-day, has become
convinced of the urgency of a closer
co-operation between the White
House and Congress. His conference
with Senator Overman, Democrat, of
North Carolina-, and Senator Nelson,
Republican, of Minnesota, yesterday,
it now _develops, was the forerunner
ot a series of talks the President in
tends having with leaders of both
parties in Congress.
Up to now the President has con
fined his conferences almost exclus
ively to Democratic Senators, but he
has refrained from taking them into
his confidence as much ns some ot
them have wished. The develop
ments in Congress the last few
weeks, however, since the Senate
Military Affairs Committee started
its Investigation into the conduct ot
the war, have wrought a change.
President Wilson is to confer with
Republican and Democratic Senators
to-morrow at the White House over
the bill offered by Senator Overman
to give the President blanket au
thority in the reorganization of war
activities, and also other war legisla
tion either pending or contem
plated.
Pneumonia Takes Heavy
Toll of Harrisburgers
Mrs, J. Dickey, 1949 Briggs street,
35, colored, died in the Harrisburg
Hospital at 4J15 yesterday, of pneu
monia. She was delirious when
takan to the hospital Monday night.
Lewis Rich, who resided at the
Metropolitan Annex, died in the Har
risburg Hospital, of pneumonia and
a complication ot other Illnesses, last
night. He had been in the hospital
some time.
William T. Wicks, 611 Calder
street, colored, is seriously ill wt'h
pneumonia at the nospital. As he is
old, his recovery is doubtful.
Hospital authorities announce that
the number of pneumonia cases at
the hospital this winter has been un
precedented. This is due in part. It
Is said, to the severity of the win
ter and to the immigration of a
large number of southern negroes
hero during the past year, who have
been unable to stand the rigors of
the northern winter. A large num
ber of the pneumonia patients have
been colored. •
