GOVERNMENT BY HYSTERIA;
"WooDY" NEEDS THE DOCTOR


Washington, D. C.-(Special Cor
respondencel-The Republican Pub
licity association. through its presi-
| dent Hon. Jonathan Bourne, Jr., to-
| day gave out the following statement
from its Washington headquarters:
Successive waves of hysterical
| sentiment on one subject after anoth-
err is given by a prominent New
York periodical as an important
cause of high prices. Why shouldn't
| there be waves of hysteria, when We
have had government by hysteria for
| the past seven years? When Pres
isdent Wilson took charge OF
affairs in 1918 he appointed nine cab
! met officers not one of whom had
any particular knowledge of the du-
ties of his department. With one ex-
ception. those who remained any
| length of time were incompetent and
| naturally established government by
hysteria. In this they were following
the lead of the president himself.
Elected on a platform promising that
| no injury should come to any legit-
innate industry. the president insisted
upon legislation that would close
American mills. and. when business
men went to the capital to protest,
he threated to hang them higher
than Haman' This was the begin
ming OF hysteria.
AFTER having been pledged to free
tolls for American coastwise ship
ping through the Panama canal. Mr..
Wilson received some mysterious
communication from some foreign
country and had another fit of hys-
terra which caused him to send an
urgent message to congress asking re-
peal of the free tolls provision. as
serting that unless congress granted
him this in 'ungrudging measure he
would rot know how to proceed in
vital diplomatic matters. The cause
for this hysterical proceeding has
never been disclosed.

Mexico were characterized by hys-
terra. manifested in orders placing

ing them with nothing accomplished.
recognizing first one faction and then
another, promising American citizens
protection and then advising them to
get out of the country to which they
had gone under the protection of trea-
ties.
"For many months after the out
break OF the war in Europe, and after
the sinking of the Lusitania, Presi-
dent Wilson denounced the advocates
Of preparedness. but when he finally
became aware of actual conditions. he
declared Historically that the world
is on fire. and proceeded to inspire
the preparatory movement with the
hysteria manifested by himself.

for Europe. he went aboard the flag

delivered an address In which he ad-
vised naval officers to throw prud-
ence to the winds and do the auda-

lutely did not follow. They were i'm
