(In New York Sun.) has made almost a recluse of the It has closed the White to all 6ave the 'really Important visitors, Increased the work of the president and his staff fully 50 per cent and Imposed upon Woodrow Wilson responsibilities and tasks heavier than those resting crowned head. The comparative Isolation of the man In "the White House Is not an entirely new thing. - War has merely accentuated the normal enforced isolation of the chief executive. President Taft spoke of such Isolation one day In a rather plaintive little speech before the Washington newspaper correspondents. More than three years ago, before Europe went to war, President Wilson, addressing these same correspondents, spoke of the stately restraints of the office of president. Mr. Taft regretted that nobody drops In at the White House. He missed neighborly visits, chats. Everybody comes by engagement, complained the Jovial Mr. Taft. This story ef a wartime president will reveal how few. even by engagement-- come to Hie White House nowadays, and why President Wilson has become a near recluse because of war. Also It should show how Secretary Tumulty and bis assistants, Rudolph Forster and Tom Brnhany, are striving harder each day to keep little worries from the president and to save his strength and Judgment for vital tilings. Practically all business with the president Is now transacted in his study at the White House. Except on cabinet days he does not use the executive offices. These, offices were built by direction so that the White House proper might be used only for living and social purposes. President Wilson began the steady use of the White House library and study about the time of the breach with Germany, when war seemed but a question of weeks. It was then that the presl- dent began to tighten up on his engagementsand to conserve his energy for the major problems of armed neutrality and Impending war. The engagement list of the president nowadays will average three to five names. Before the war, or rather before the international situation demanded so much of his time. It was not uncommon to find a dozen to' twenty names on the engagement sheet that lies on his desk. Senators and representatives, public officials ad citizens of prominence were able to get. to The president during peace. He found time to see the newspaper correspondents occasionally, to greet the Daughters of the American Revolution on their annual vl.slt to Washington, to shake hands with delegations of schoolgirls and boys corn clubs and to exchange pleasantries with bashful constituents presented by members of congress. War has changed all this. The president can now see but few senators and representatives and his visitors from Capitol Hill are almost exclusively men Interested In Important legislation before the congress. Secretary immediately Tumulty Is, and must be, the buffer between the president and the legislator who wants to air a pet theory or present a patronage matter. Under the stress Secretary Tumulty himself see? the president two or three times a week. Time was when Mr. Tumulty saw the Governor Tumulty still' calls him that a dozen times a To save the time of the president comday. munication' between the executive offices and Mr. Wilson's desk Is today largely made by memoranda. The secretary finds that the written note' presents a matter concisely, requires less of the presidents attention and obviates extended con- WAIt , versations - . These memoranda are written by Tumulty and sent direct to the president by ' special are a tl a efi ed red cards marked special or Immediate, and the president knows upon receipt that something requires Tumutty a& fix Desk the president should see a memorandum Is sent -- cious White House grounds. The soldiers have strict orders to make every one move on. There Is no loitering whatever about the White House after sundown. A copy of the presidents dally engagement list Is furnished the policemen at the gates. When a person who has an engagement, with the president shows up afoot or in outomobil6thegates swing open and he la admitted to the grounds. The visitor Is again looked over" as he approaches the entrance to the executive mansion, where two or. more policemen are always on duty. No other persons are. admitted to the grounds except at the west gate. Immediately adjoining the executive offices. Here visitors having business with Secretary Tumulty may gain entrance - upon the proper showing. The gates to the White House were closed the day relations were severed with Germany. At the same time an order went forth denying tourists and others the privilege of going through the lower rooms of the executive mansion. Thousands of tourists have come to Washington expecting to go through the White House, only to be stopped by the officer at the gate. The police guard about the president when walking or riding has been doubled since the outbreak of war. Two motorcycle policemen- - clad In khaki pick up the presidents automobile the moment It swings out of the grounds onto the "street.

The story Is heard by Tumulty and briefed by him In a note for the president. Sometimes the memorandum is merely one .of recital ; again the secretary will suggest that the earnestness of the delegation and the story presented might Justify a statement of the administrations. attitude. The memorandum system, used whenever possible, Illustrates the departure from the peacetime routine of the White House, and the methods used to save the president time, worry and strength.
