OPERATION FOR
FIRST LADY TO
BE DECIDED TODAY
Preeldenfa Wife ImproTet Slightly
Prominent rbyalelans and Surgeons
To Decide Whether Operation
It Neeeeeary Today.
Washington, Sept. 11. A doclslon
on which may depend the life of Mrs.
Warren Q. Harding, wife of the presi
dent, waa to be made early today by
the corps of sis attending physicians,
headed by Dr. Charles Mayo, noted
surgeon, of Kochosler, Minnesota.
They were to decide whether a sur
gical operation was necessary. Im
provement during yesterday In Mrs.
Harding's condition an Improvement
so slight as to be nlinwt Imperceptible
caused the doctors, after hours of
ernest consultation and conference, to
defer their doclslon on tho operation.
When they decided on this course,
Mra. Harding was asleep and her gen
eral condition was such as to create
belief that a turn for the better had
come that would carry her safely over
the crisis.
That la what the doctors were hop
ing as they gathered this morning to
renew their consultation. They realiz
ed an operation must be the last re
sort, because of Mrs. Harding's weak
ened physical condition.
Early morning reports from the sick
room were that Mra. Harding spent a
quiet night, sleeping much of the time
and suffering comparatively little pain.
John W. Weeks, secretary of war
among the earliest callers at the White
House, loft In an extremely cheerful
frame of mind.
"Mrs. Harding had the best night
last night since her Illness became
critical." said Weeks. "Hot tcmper
aturo la getting back toward normal.
If her condition continues to Improve
as It did during tho night, her doctors
will hesitate to operate."
"Indications point to an operation,"
Senator Medll McCormick, of Illinois,
said after an enrly visit to the White
House, "as Mrs. Harding's better phys
ical condition would enable her to
stand the shork more easily."
rbyslclans report her condition Is
"even more encouraging than last
night," McCormick aald.
