TNkINC CARE OF HIS FRIENDS

The news that President Wilson had
chosen a new secretary OF war from
the ranks of his old-timc pupils Is nn,
IA surprise TO those who have watched
the presidents methods. 1t Is consis,-
ent with his policy to put none but
Wilson men on guard. This is NJ,
any reflection on the worthuuess OF
the new secretary. who may be AMI
probably is well qualified for the
place, but IL is only one of series of
Wilson acts tha. subjects him TO the
criticism OF trying to make this gov
crnmcut one-man power, and is in
line with his whole career in office.
In the matter of the proposed tariff
commission the president still insists
that he shall be empowered to name
the entire body Congressman Barn
hart tried to get through measure
to provide for nonpUrusan commits
sion appointed by both houses OF
congress in conjunction with the cN-
ecutlvc. but Mr.. Wilson would have
none Of this. As college president
ho exercised tho same eNclusiveness
as to appointments, and when trus-
tee, "a member of the faculty or any
~ the employees of school was to be
chosen he took pains to get n Wilson
man on the job. Every committee
that was selected was stuffed with u
safe working majority Of Wilson par
tisans. 1t is not strange, then, that
as president of the United States he
perpotuatcs the habit of putting mono
hut Wilson men ON guard. Even his
earlier appointments that had tile
flavor of eXpcdiency have been grad
ually stripped off until MIR. Wilson
stands out ms the whole thing" in
thi, administration.
