Ia Wilson for Class Legislation?

George Harvey, editor of the North
American Review, leads its November
issue with a survey Of the first six
months of the Wilson administration.
in which he accuses President Wilson
of an insincerity.
1t will be remembered that Presi-
dent Taft vetoed the sundry civil bill
because of proviso which exempted.
by indirection, labor unions from
prosecution when they form combina-
tions in restraint of trade in violation
of the Sherman antitrust act. This
lroviso Mr.. Taft rightly described as
''class legislation OF the most vicious
sort"
IL will also be remembered that
President Wilson, in approving the bill
when repassed with this very proviso,
expressed regret that he could not
separate it," and used other language
which gave the country the impress
sion that he would have kept it out II
he could. He seemed to take pains tn
give the country that impression. Mr..
Harvey virtually accuses the president
of wilfully seeking to deceive the
country.
