tee. who was then in Washington.
Rather the president stayed by
himself; denied himself to all callers
and spent much Of his time in his H.
brary where he might be undisturbed
as he attempted to solve a problem
more grave than is presented to most
executives. That he felt his RESPONSE
biity was evident; that he realized
the danger of making ms-step was
clear and this realization on his part
made 1t more incumbent upon him
to take the best counsel he could get
But where to get it?
Did Not Measure Up.
When the personnel of President
Wilson's cabinet was announced com
ment was general that the president
did not, as rule. measure up to cab
did not as a rule, measure rpto cab
met size. and he was accused Of hav-
ing made such selections that he
might the more readily dominate tic
cabinet, and single handed, 1irec. the
affairs Of government. In his se'ec-
ton Of secretary Of war and A secre-
tary Of the interior Presided; Wilson
picked men unusually well equipped
for their respective Offices, but his
other selections, to date, have done
him no credit, assuming he sought the
best men obtainable.
Thus in his hours Of sri5uiatIon
when most presidents wouli have has
tily summoned the members Of their
official family, President Wilson
sought seciuslon. He could not rely
upon his secretary of state, the one
cabinet officer who should be best
able to assist him; he c)nl1 not take
the advice of the secretary # the

PRESIDENT WILSON
WAS WITHOUT ADVISERS
HE WAS ALL ALONE IN SOLVING
THE PROBLEM FRS D
BY THE LUSlTANIA

! Wrapped in solitude for four long
days following the torpedoing OF Tn,
Lusitania, refusing to see or To coz,
fer with the members of his cabinet
but wrestling singlehanded with the
biggest problem that ever confronted
him, President Wilson made of him.
self an object of national sympathy If
not pity. The idea of a president of
the United States being literally COM
PEELED to take only his own counsel al
a time when he most needed advice
was 50 striking as to become historic.
Speaking blunty, President Wilson
found himself in a predicament where
much reflection was necessary. Con-
fronted with tremendously import
ant issue, fraught with all manner of
possibilities, and involving questions
of national honor the president was
compelled to pause and consider
which way to turn. He found him
self, for once, an Isolated figure.
No Cabinet on Which to Lean.
Most presidents, in selecting their
cabinets, bring around them men Of
large caliber to advise on the conduct
of the government President Wilson
had no such cabinet upon whose
members he could rely for advice; ne
had no state department, worthy Of
the name, to counsel and advise, the
big men of his party were not In
Washington and could not be readily
called into conference so the presi-
dent was forced to commune with
himself-and with the authorities as
written.
But the president was doubly con-
founded by the destruction of the
Lusitania, following, as ii did close
upon the torpedoing Of the American
steamer Gulnght; for not 50 many
weeks before he had sent solemn
warning to Germany that he would
hold that government to "strct ac-
countablity"in the event it caused
the loss of American lives in the con-
duct of its war upon the high seas
The torpedoing of the Lur!tania, like
the torpedoing of the Outright,
brought the president face to face
with the necessity of making good his
threat.
The miserable conduct Of the state
department by Secretary Bryan has
done more to bring the blush Of shame
to American citizens than any other
one thing that has occurred in this
government in years. The thorough
incompetency of Secretary Bryan, pr
mier Of the cabinet, to grasp the re-
spOnsibility or to understand the du-
ties of his high office, rendered him
useless to the president in dealing with
the Lusitania incident, and as the
head Of the state department is defic-
lent, 50 also are his subOrdlnaics--
most of them; all of them in the high
er positions.

The purchasers are all well
