Wilson to drop some White House receptions eyed
Secretary Knox pledges no shift of coastwise trade to undercut foreign shipping and a special commission to resolve disputes if Britain remains unsatisfied. Secretary Stimson backs Normoyle and Dalton plan for a Gettysburg veterans camp of 54000 tents for 60 000 to 70 000 survivors with a 200 tent kitchen and a field hospital. The inaugural ball is canceled as President elect Wilson seeks substitute receptions while Congress must finance any public option. The Supreme Court limits ICC rate setting to substantial evidence, affecting postwar rail pricing.｣
