Wilson Wants Bill for Wire Lines to Pass Before Recess
Washington July 5 President Wise urged Congress to pass the resolution authorizing him to take over telephone and telegraph lines. An attempt to call up the measure in the House failed amid objections as leaders pressed for summer recess. The main hurdle cited was Senator Gore's threat to block emergency appropriations until grain price measures and broader government controls were resolved. The Boston Transcript notes a stitched separate cartoon-like exchange about telegraphing and a mother.
