WASHINGTON1, Feb J 4 (By
The Associated Press) -Steps to
suspend all activities of the gov
ernment on .Wednesday, the day
of the funeral of Woodrow Wil
son, were brought to a halt to
night by discovery of a law passed
In 1893 expressly providing that
executive departments of .the gov
ernment may not be closed as a
mark of respect for a former oin-
cial. ,
An executive order closing the
department was written out yes
terday but signature was withheld
until the dato of the funeral was
learned. President Coolidge was
at the- point ' of signing it today
when the 1893 law was discovered.
Several suggestions as to a way
out of the difficulty was discussed
One was that each, department
head inform the employe. under
htm that they need not report for
work, thereby actually, although
npt technically closing the depart
ment but this step, R was felt,
would not accomplish the desired
purpose of showing respect tot the
former president, f r
No decision having been reach
ed, directions for a cablnei meet
in tr tomorrow were sent out. al
though earlier in the day it had
been decided to dispense with the
session.! i..
