President Wilson today mapped oat a program, of recreation for hla visit here. ' . ; '. . v- f- ;; The nation's chief executive will sleep at least nine hours each night, I the quota he had hoped to get but often missed. After breakfast he will motor to the Mississippi Country club,-! 13 miles away, for a game of golf i with his physician, Dr. Cary T. Gray- I son, U. S. N. At noon he will dls- pose of whatever important ' letters or j telegrams that may reach him from the White House, and after luncheon , will take an automobile ride with hia' family, followed perhaps by a long walk along the beach roads. : The president plans to spend the evenings -reading. 1 t While the president will do little : official work there are present . two things uppermost In his mind the se lection of members of the federal re serve board in the new currency law His and the writing of a special address I to congress on the relations of the government to "big business" and the trusts. Of the choice of members of the board which will put into opera ,iloi-heiew currency -system there is v little possibility that Mr. Wilson final- ly will decide on any individuals while . he is here. ; When the president returns to Washington he probably will confer with cabinet advisers and friends re garding the personnel of the board. Those closely associated with ' the president believe there will be no nominations until the full 60-day period allowed ,by law for the selec tions has about expired. - The president probably will make a rough draft of his anti-trust ad dress while here and later submit it to leaders of the administration. , Investigation into the trust situa tion of what the administration re gards. as a growing desire on the part of business men to co-operate with the government in reorganizing their companies to conform with the Sher man law, it is virtually certain, will be dwelt on by the president ! Those who conferred with Mr. Wil son before he left Washington drew encouragement for the ultimate ea- ; tabllshment of an Interstate trade j commission to comply with requests for Information made by business concerns desiring accurate details of ; what the Sherman law permits or prohibits. While such a commission would not be given regulatory powers, it would constitute a bureau of infor mation and lnveatlgation over which Its advocates intend the commissioner of corporations should preside. It would assist the courts in carrying out decrees of dissolution by observfng whether such decrees actually are put Into effect This Is one of the phases of the trust question which, In the light of recent developments, la conaidered quite likely to be discussed by the president In hia address. The presi dent haa told friends he will deliver the address immediately after the holidays. Washington, Dec. 26.
