No rresl dent since John Adams has availed hjmself of the rlKht. t'oncrrss as amazed when It heard of the Presi dent's plan. Some of tho old lime lenders refused to believe it until Secretary Tumulty personally con firmed the news. It was planned ' t'nit the President should first ko to Ills room on the Senate side of the t'apltol and later ko to the Hall of the House of Rep resentatives. h-re both brunches of Connress will be assembled. The IcRlslntive principles that hind the House and S-naie toct'tlier were outlined today.

Some of tho President's friends bay lit hus expected to read all his principal mcs-saces to ( on Kress. President Wilson was nuked today what motive Impelled him to nuew the custom of a ontury aw. "The reasons are very simple," he said. "I think Mat it is the ouly dig nified way for the President to ad dress th1) Houses at the opening of the session. Instead of sending tho address up by messenger and letting the clerk rnd it perfunctorily in the familiar clerk' tone of voice, I thought that the dlcnlfled and nat ural thing was to read it. It is a pre cedent, which It is true has be-n dis continued a long time, but which Is a very respectable precedent.'' Th President was asked If he ex pected tiiat there would bo answers from Congress as there bad been In the old days, but he smilingly replied that the only response lie looked for was the legislative answer. W..-l'lNITON'. April 7.--Prosldon( W'llnon (-ought today to avert a dip loiuatle titu:lo wilh .la pan our III' bill pending in the California l.cgl hit ur through which Japanese wuul I be preiented front owning property In that state. The Japanese government had III ed formal protest with tin Slate le partment n Ka I n st what it i oiml.lered a iromcii lutrtiigeiuciii 01 tr -aiv obligations. The President coufeir d llrst with "secretary Lane, of the lilt-rlor l'e partuifiil. who halls from Calllorul:i n ml hiler with Snmlor Works and l'ciircciitii(Ue William Kent, of that stale. None would discuss the President's attitude, but it Is belletrd that the took occasion informally to common hale his views to the California leg U Inters. The President Is reMirtt'd as be lieving that if aiitlall.'U legislation is luressnry It should be made to ap ply to y II aliens, without dlscrluilua t ''!. Such a bill, while it lnlg.it elim inate the cause for Japnuest protest. would hate for the court, it is Kilnt ed out here, the question of Its con stiiutlo'iallty without invoking any for-'ign government lu the rase. VAe don t waul any more race problems In this country," was tho only comment Representative Kent would make as hi left the White House. Meanwhile, the State Department. Is giving careful study to the probable eft -i t of the proposed legislation up on the existing treaty between the l ulled States and Japan. The offi cials have no doubt that If ths Cal ifornia legislature enacts a stale law in ctinlllct with the existing' Ireatv, its actli;n promptly would be nulli fied by the l ulled Slut-s courts. Artlclo one of the treaty provides that citizens of each nation shall have liberty to enter, travel and reside in the otli-T and among other things "to own, or lease and occupy houses, manufactories, warehouses and shops, to employ agents of their choice, to lease land for residential and com mercial purposes, etc. The issue may turn upon the ap plication to agricultural lands or f irms of tho phrase "to leas" lauds for residential and commercial pur poses." Another point that la under consul ration Is the eligibility of the Jap an -so to American cttlxf nshlp for if they are elgUile, then the proposed California legislation admittedly would not nie"t the rlnand of th Callfornlan for the exclusion of the Japanese from their slat. Tho Japa nese contend that thsy are not Mon golians, prohibited from tiatiirallza Hon by the I'nlted States Inw, and only the loner courts In this country have held others Is".

Hloue, Williams, and Here, lieuim ratio liieinbrs of the Senate tlmtin o coiiimllteii, argued miiiulinously Willi the I'resld nt for a schedule by schedule rvlslou, but at its conclusion tliu President said ho would still fi rthcr louaitlcr the mailer before reaching a decision. Hie President had fairly made up Ills mind taat Hie single bill idea was the more elTeetlte and hcllcwa that such a measure could ass. He told the Senators that lie did it t think any Senators voting against lae bill would venture to bear tho buidcii uf responsibility lor ibleuilng the party program. It was suggested taal the l.ouslaua Senators would oppose the bill, but the President. It It auld, took account of Ihat loss, and figures thai Hie measure still would have enough teles lo pass. The Senators went away with the impression that wiilln the President was still open lo conviction, he was Inclined soiil'.what to the single tar iff bill. The entire iiiiesllou must be itix , I, us lar as the President's wishes are concerned, before the lie nun rail.' caucus meets tomorrow. Itcprcsciitatlte A.

Ilepresentatlve Walter M. Chand ler of New York, was chosen to make the nominating speech. He eulogized the Kansan and described him as that militant, aggressive, red-blooded Progressive from the West." Some of the old wheelhorses of the Progressive organization, however, had given It out tiiat they would not support Murdock or the Progressives' plan of organization. Chlif among thm was Representative Lenroot, of Wisconsin, who bad put oa record his belief that be could do more ef-f-!Ctlve work, along progressive lines. ny supporting President Wilson's nol- Icy. One or two others similarly had withdrawn. Chandlers nominating speech was understood to be an outline of the new organization's Intuitions and ambitions and therefore was awaited with more than usual Interest Part of bis declaration follows: "I wish to announce that we Pro gressives are not organized In this House for mere purposes of antago nism and obstruction. We have a de finite program of our own and we snail nse every means to accomplish Its purpose. We shall, at times, be compelled to assume an attitude of opposition and resistance, for we will oppose with faces of flint and hearts of steel every non progressive, reac tionary bill Introduced."
