Mr.. ROOsevelt's indictment of Mr..
Wilson's Administration Is made mp
of two counts-the failure OF its
foreign policy and the absence of
prosperity. On both topics the Col
onel is eloquent, speaking, not as IA
former President who would. sup
posedly, bring to the discussion OF
such questions poise and quality
of patriotism distinguishable from
partisanship, but as II hell-bent can
didate for reelection, intent only
on tearing down in order that he
may advance his personal fortunes.
The success or failure OF Mr. Will
sons foreign policies is yet in the
balance. He has attempted some
thing new under the sun-the APP
plication of the principles of a pro-
fessedly Christian and avowedly
constitutional theory Of government
TO his dealings with weaker peoples,
no less than with Power such as
England. The outcome of the ex-
pertinent is yet to be decided.
II may be that Mr.. Wilson has
but dreamed nobly. II may be that
he will achieve greatly. But what
ever the event, Mr.. Roosevelt is on
record as having attempted to capt.
talize the uncertainty for his own
ends. or the two figures, Mr., Will
son loses nothing by way OF COM
parison.
There Is, however, no uncertainty
when comparison Is made OF condi-
tons at home as they were when
