PRESIDENT WILSON AND
THE BALTIMORE PLATFORM

Editor Honolulu Star. Bulletin.
Sir:-From present indications we
must assume that President Wilson s
hat is in the ring, and that he IS in
full swing around the circle looking
for a second term. "..
During the Republican regime our
Democratic friends kept the air blue
with the cry, They have not kept
their pledges to the people"
In looking over the Democratic
platform, adopted at the Baltimore
convention on July 2, 1912, find the
following: ..~
We favor a single presidential
term, and to that end urge the
adoption OF an amendment to the
constitution. making the president
Of the United States ineligible for
reelection. and we pledge the can
didate of this convention Wood
row WILSON, to this principle.
How about this pledge? What's tho
answer?
ELECTOR.
Honolulu star-bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1912-2010, 1916-02-05
EDITOR

to be better reason than political expediency
for disregarding platform pledge.
The Star Bulletin does not believe in a single
presidential term, nor even in a limitation Of
two terms. So jealousy do the American PEG
pie guard the highest office in their gift that
no really bad man can be elected to it. and
there is scant danger indeed of an unworthy
man succeeding in an effort at reelection. On
the other hand, four years is not sufficient for
a president to work out any far-r reaching poll
cies; six years might be too short. If pres-
dent is conspicuously able, why should the
country be deprived of his services by an arbi-
trary ruling designed to safeguard against an
inferior or dangerous man!
The stock argument for a single term, and
particularly used in favor of twOterm limita-
ton, is that the president can build up through
party patronage political machine which will
insure his denomination. But this may be
guarded against. Enforcement of the civil
service principle, removal of some of the thou
sands of needless presidential appointments, in
siStenee that federal office holders shall devote
less time to partisan politics, will be safeguards
Direct nomination and direct primary laws will
90 further still.
The American people should do nothing to
lessen the prestige of their presidents, or to
hamper them in making the office one of real
national leadership. Men great enough and
able enough to be president usually find no per-
sonal reward in the office beyond that of a
splendid duty splendidly performed, To bind
them to single term would not only injure
their power to serve but deprive them of the
greatest recognition grateful people can give
to good work-reelection.
1t is quite plain today that the Democratic
party has no other possible candidate but
Woodrow Wilson. He is the logical candidate.
His. leadership has brought to the fore certain
vital issues and the party is entitled to his ser
vices as its standard-b bearer in the coming cam
paign. Seldom in recent American history has
an administration more wildly illustrated the
wisdom of the fathers in allowing reelection;
seldom is the ineptitude ola single term move
ment so apparent. Woodrow Wilson's candi-
dacy is not likely to suffer any material harm
because of the Baltimore plank.
Honolulu star-bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1912-2010, 1916-02-05
OMNIBUS BUT NOT HOPELESS.

There is not the slightest question that the
great majority of American people hold the
sinking of the Lusitania to be morally indie
fensibly, legally wrong, and without justifca-
tion in military necessity.
Snch being the case, the great majority of
American people, if the Issue is squarely pre-
scented to them, will uphold the administration
in its insistence that Germany must either ae-
knowledge the illegality of the act of last May
or meet what consequences a refusal involves.
The situation is ominous for a continuance
of friendly relations, but it is not necessarily
hopeless. There are still several steps the
United States can take to manifest its absolute
determination in this matter. Any one of those
steps may convince Germany that, just as she
justifes to the world the transgression of Bel
ginm and the destruction of the Lustania on
the ground of military necessity and reprisal,
so she can Justify to her own people full repara-
ton for the Lusitania, ON the ground of military
and diplomatic policy.
The United States has not yet come to an
extension of the full economic and military aid
to the Allies that the richest nation on earth
can extend. This country does not want to come
to that Not even near approach to it may
be necessary.
The United States has won issues before
without striking a blow-won them by calm
preparation for whatever might result from
stand on common right.

But the Philippine assembly Is hostile

Senator Hoke Smith of Georgia represents
the cotton raisers and manufacturers of the
South. In addition he is none too close to the
Wilson administration. These two facts afford
much of explanation for his persistent attacks
on the British blockade of commerce. The
blockade is unfair and needless in many re-
spects, and many Americans are beginning to
believe that England is trying to steal Ameri-
can trade under the guise of shutting off Ger
man supplies, but at that Senator Smiths re-
marks are largely for home consumption
