 Ending the war in few weeks would not have been much more of an undertaking, when he went to Europe, than would the task of roofing the politicians out of politics by his acts. Ii is interesting, in connection with the threatened cleanup, to recall report cir culatcd in New York to the effect that Henry is believed to have an eye on the Democratic presidential nomination in l924 that he looks upon himself as d man of destiny.
