short time ago, Rep. Kitchin, the
Democratic leader of the House, paid
his respects to the President, and in
cidentally to Josephus Daniels who,
as everyone knows, is merely one of
the mouthpieces of Woodrow Wilson.
Said Mr.. Kitchin, IL believe l said it
was criminal for this House to vote
upon a proposition that would take
hundreds of millions of dollars need
lessly out of the Treasury through the
proposition presented by the gentle
man from Pennsylvania. And yet In
two short months the chairman of the
committee on Naval Affairs, the Sec
rotary of the Navy and the President
and most of my fellow Democrats want
me to get up now on this floor and eat
my words. and say that the program
Of the gentleman from Pennsylvania
and the Republicans, which they in
duced me then TO denounce as criminal
recklessness, is now the very perfec-
ton OF virtue and patriotism" This
was, it win be understood, the naval
program which the Republicans urged
In the House and which Mr. Kitchin
as he says, was induced by the Presi-
dent and Daniels to denounce as
criminal" which the Senator later,
under the lash of the President adopt
ed and the House agreed to, and which
Mr.. Daniels promptly proclaimed to
the country as a great achievement OF
the administration.

Another "Daniels"-AccordIng to
Col. George Harvey, the truly original
Wilson man and the one who more
than any other won for Wilson the
Presidency, "a Daniels has to come
to be navy slang for the shorter, and
If conceivable, uglier word" This
time, however, it is the Secretary of
War who appears to have become in
fected with the besetting sin of the
Wilson administration. Secretary
Baker has been telling Maine audi
ences that the Mexican situation was
inherited from the Taft administration
and that it was President Taft who
refused to recognize the dissolute
monster, Huerta." The truth is, as
Mr.. Baker must know, that Huerta did
not assume office until February 49,
1913, twelve days before Mr.. Taft re-
tired from the Presidency, and Mr.
Taft did not recognize Huerta because
he felt that it was the delicate and
course to leave that act to
his successor. Had Mr. Wilson recog-
nized Huerta it would have strength
ened his hands in dealing with him
to have himself recognized the Next
can President instead of having to deal
with an executive recognized by his
No argument can be
made to support the contention that
President Taft was in any way re-
sponsible for the Mexican problem of
this administration which argument is
not based on a series OF "Danielses."
