POLITICS AND HEROES

10 NE might surmise from
VI profuse expressions of
praise for General Wood
now pouring forth from a GER
tain portion of the press that
the general won the war and
did so by superhuman display
of military genius at Camp
Pike or wherever he was To-
Gated. We are even told by
some of the more enthusiastic
boosters that he is our great
est commander and as a hero
of the heroes has Pershing dis
tanced absolutely.
Such fervor of course may
be understood in the light of
the political situation. But is
it good politics or good patrio-
tism; is it fair? We all liked
General Pershing a year ago
when the Germans were rush
ing hard at Paris and he step
ped forth and told Foch that
the American army would be
proud to fight in any place at
any time and in any way they
could be used. We also liked
the manner in which he smash
ed the st. Mihiel salient, we
liked the bulldog courage with
which he tackled the Argonne
drive, we liked the German
surrender which followed on

the heels of that drive.
If Pershing was alright a few
months ago what is the matter
now? Has he lost his reputa-
ton merely by telling a politi-
cal delegation that he is a SOL
dier and does not wish to enter
politics? Why should his
fame be clouded in order to
boost General Wood who may
be a great soldier or he may
not be such. No one knows be-
cause he has never been tested
in real warfare and the war;
fare test is the only test of
great generalship.
This paper is not here dis
cussing General Wood as
presidential aspirant save as
the matter relates to the war
end of the subject. On the war
subject the East Oregonian re-
sents any attempt to humble a
field commander in order to
boost any man who did not see
such service. The silver chew
ron is entitled to its share of
glory and no one denies it, but
the gentlemen who wear the
gold are the men who faced
the music and it is to them we
owe the fact a peace confer
ence is now in session.
