A MENTAL CHAMELEON

In regard to Mexico. the President
Of the United states has shown an eIe-
ment of true greatness by frankly an
nouncing that he has changed his
mind" says the Washington Post. II
frankly announcing that he has
changed his mind Is an evidence OF
true greatness. IL must be conceded
that President Wilson has few equals
and no superiors. He has not only
changed his mind once. but he has
changed IL twice In regard 10 the
Mexican situation. In May. 1914. he
declared his intention Of securing the
removal OF the de facto head Of the
Mexican government. and OF interfer-
Ing in Mexican affairs I'm other re-.
spects. particularly IN the control OF
the public land policies Of that gov
eminent A few months later. IN his
speech in indianapolis. he frankly an.
nounced that he had changed his
mind. and asserted that there must pc
no Interference. and that Mexico must
work out her problems without the
assistance or influence OF this country.
Now he just as frankly announces
that he has agsin reversed himself

and proposes TO exert an active aud
aggressive influence in controlling
internal Affairs OF that afflicted voun-
try.
But Il is not with regard 10 tie
Mexican problem only that President
Wilson 80 frankly announces a change
OF mind. A few years ago he was
writing books in which he denounced
the Initiative and referendum. When
he became a candidate for President
he frankly announced that he had
been mistaken. that he had changed
his mind. and that be advocated those
principles OF popular government.
Since his election. however. he has
evidently returned TO his former opin.
ion. for his voice has not been once
raised in advocacy Of direct lerisla-
ton. Prior to his election he was a
devout advocate OF the Presidential
primary law. but in recent months he
has made known his opinion that leg
islation Of this kind is impracticable
On the stump. when he was seeking
the votes OF the American people. he
was an outspoken advocate OF free
tolls for American coastwise ship
ping through the Panama Canal. but
soon after he had come into posi-
ton Of power he frankly announced
his change OF mind and forced through
Congress a law repeating the free tolls
provision.
Truly. IL must be conceded that in
frankly announcing changes of mind
President Wilson is unsurpassed. and
IL this be an element OF true great
ness. as the Washington. Pos; as.
sumes. he will 20 down in history
