Big financial interests identified

FAILS TO DRAW

'1f It Suits Him, It Suits Me-"

BY NORMAN HAPGOOD.

Woodrow Wilson is thus far get

out of the course of his successors.
When he was asked whether he
would like to see advance sheets of
Mr.. Lansing's book. hereplied:
mo. If it suits Lansing, it suits

WHY WILSON FELT HURT.
The thing Mr.. Wilson perhaps felt
most keenly in his relation to Mr..
Lansing was the Secretary's remain
ing in office and trying to start a
Mexican policy the opposite of Mr..
Wilson's when Mr.. Wilson was oc-
cupied about other things. and par
ticularly when he was sick. Also he
felt injured by the expressions against
the treaty that Mr.. Lansing was con-
stantly making while serving under
the President.
But he takes even these things that
he has most at heart with a certain
Hghtness. A good deal of speculation
has been caused by one of his re-
marks. Somebody suggested that the
new administration would probably
get into a war with Mexico.
