The Wilson administration has been IN
power one year. Its promises TO promptly
revise the tariff and currency laws have
been redeemed. despite conflicting inter
ests within the party lines. through the
Presidents intrepid leadership and un-
usual control. Woodrow Wilson's will
has been the most notable political de-
velopment OF the year. He has super
seded the ordinary functions and proc
esses OF legislation and administration.
