How long the president will remain abroad he himself probably can not eay now. The time for the convening of the peace conference has not yet .been announced, but the general belief here la that It can not be assembled before late In December at the earliest. If such proves the case, the president will be absent from the country for at least a month and probably longer. In visiting Europe the president will establish two precedents. He will be the first chief executive of the United Stutets to parUclpate In a peace conference for the settling of Issue growing ont of a war In which this country participated, and likewise he will be the first president to leave North America during his term of office.
