purpose of considering breaking off
diplomatic relations with Germany af-
ter the receipt of the defiant and in
sulting German note proclaiming
resumption Of ruthless submarine
warfare. Although Mr.. Wilson him
self was convinced that Bernstein had
to be dismissed and relations with
Germany severed he carefully solicit
ed the views of each cabinet member
before announcing his own and found
that the plan he had in view had the
unanimous support of his ministry.
The other meeting, that of March
20, was of even more compelling
world Importance. 1t was held at a
time when the diplomatic relations
between Germany and the United
States were severed and after four
American ships had been sunk, with
loss of American lives, by German
submarines. This day, according to
Mr.. Daniels, was probably the most
important one Of the war, because it
was the day when the Wilson admin
istration definitely decided there was
nothing else for the United States to
do but join hands with the other al
lied nations to save the free peoples
of the world by defeating Germany,
Naturally the cabinet meeting was a
very dramatic and tense affair and
the description of the gathering CIV
en- by Mr. Daniels is not only most
graphic but it is also convincing of
the receptive quality Of Mr.. Wilson's
mind to advice on the gravest of all
possible subjects.
The whole world is familiar with
the various means the former presi-
dent employed to uphold the rights
and dignity of the United States with
out result of war, but on this occa-
sion the man upon whose shoulders
would rest the heaviest burden of war
had determined that there was no 9TH
err honorable way out. Some men,
bers of the cabinet had come to the
iiconclusion earlier, while others had
been forced to it reluctantly. Regard
less of his own views the then presi-
dent solicited carefully the opinions of
the ten men who sat around the coun-
Gil table with him. One by one in
grave tones and with measured words,
his most intimate eounsellors told the
then head Of the nation that the time
had come for the United States to in
terpose her physical strength against
the character Of war that Germany
was conducting. II was when all the
others had finished that Woodrow
Wilson calmly but firmly announced
he had determined to advance to
April his call for an extra session Of
the Congress set for April 16, and
that in his message he would ask the
highest legislative authority Of the
nation to recognize a state of belig-
erancy between their own country and
Germany. What Immediately follow
ed we viii allow Mr.. Daniels 70 tell:
II was when these matters had
been settled that a member of
the cabinet read aloud a shelf Of
kilograms conveying the impress
sion that the people Of America
were clammoring for war. and il
was in response to this display Of
feeling that the president spoke
the words with which ] began my

A CLOSE UP VIEW OF WOODROW
WILSON.
Memphis Commercial Appeal.

No American leader in all the his
tory of this republic has been more
widely known than former President
Woodrow Wilson, nor has any one OF
them been less known. or his utter
ances and Of his actions the breech
clouted savage under Africa's tropi-
cal sun or the primative islander in
the languid South Seas has a rather
definite knowledge, but Of his real
personality there are very few even
Of his own coutrymen who can speak
with gertrude and accuracy. Other
great Americans have been equally
beloved and equally hated but not one
has been less understood and more
misunderstood.
To a large extent the former presi-
dent himself is to blame--n blame
man attach thereto--because he
seorned the tricks and articles by
which the professional politician
makes himself personally popular. He
has been quite generally imagined to
be a cold, austere, Unconditional being
self sufficient in his own thoughts,
tyranical in his opinions and auto
cratic in his actions, and the impress
sion gained considerable currency be-
cause he never devoted single mo-
ment of his eight years national
leadership to disapprove it or to con-
vince the people otherwise.
But no greater injustice has ever
been done a great national figure htan
this same false impression. Woodrow
Wilson has been so averse to self ex-
ploitation that he has refused to an
swer what were hardly less than at
tacks upon himself by two men who
had occupied the highest position in
his cabinet. Many of his friends have
felt that he was doing an injustice
to himself by his silence and it is no
doubt some motive of this sort that
has inspired former Secretary Of the
Navy Daniels to make the intimate
revelations now appearing in the New
York World concerning the former
president and the manner in which he
conducted himself during the mo-
mentous years Of the world war. Mr..
Daniels, Of course, is chiefly concern.
ed with giving the inside recital Of
how some of the great decisions were
reached but he tells enough TO make ii
plain that Woodrow Wilson is very
human being, genial, tolerant, with a
fine vein Of humor, willing TO listen
to and accept advice but absolutely
steeled against any suggestion that he
act upon any matter merely to secure
popular support for himself or bene-
fit Of the political organization of
which he has been a great leader.
The chief attack made upon Wood
row Wilson by his enemies has been
through the charge that he refused to
listen to the advice and eounsels Of
bis ministry. This charge is most ef-
fectively answered by Mr.. Daniels in
his descriptions of two cabinet meet
ings, one on Friday. February 2. 1917,
and the other on Tuesday, March 20,
when two Of most momentous deci-
sions ever taken by this country were
reached. The first was called for the
