WILSON AND THE WAR

WILSON AMI IF1E " An
Under the provisions Of the
constitution the president is
supreme In time Of war.
It is a part Of the tradition of the
country that the president must
not be crossed and must not be
denied the right to prosecute a
war according to bis own ideas.
President Wilson was an ideal
war president. He was by nature
and di sposition adapted the role
that be cast for.duripg the years
this country was involved in war
fare. He was magnificent in su-
premacy. He failed in the under
takings that required the counsel
Of others and especially the sym.
pathetic and cordial cooperation
of the legislative branch of the
government
Mr.. Wilson himself admitted
that be did not profit from contact
with other men. 1t was a source
of regret to him and shortcoming
that lost for him a degree Of sym
pathy and understanding on the
part of those who were entitled to
share in his councils.
But when all the jealousies and
passions, and the resentment of
some who have felt the force Of his
wrath have disappeared, the out
standing feature of the man, the
enduring conception that will be
handed down for all time, will be
the fact that he was a strong man,
who pushed to the limit every.
enterprise in which be engaged.
What it might have meant to
this country to have had weak
or vacillating character in the White
House when the foundation of all
government was threatened, and
when the menace was at our doors
must be left to conjecture.
1t was With RELUCTANCE and after
the failure of every pacific effort
that President Wilson finally con-
sented to 90 into the war;. He
had measured its cost in sacrifice,
in lives and bloodshed. He had
looked into the future and appre-
hended the cost of war, and against
that measured the cost of peace;
and like Albert of Belgium, he
preferred war and the sacrifice it
entailed, rather than peace without
honor.
The monetary cost did not enter
into bis consideration. He drove
the preparations with marvellous
speed and established for this
Carroll County democrat. (Huntingdon, Tenn.) 188?-1971, 1921-03-11

The enemies Wilson made will
be slow to forgive aim, the friends
he made will stay with him, and
it will be with the writer's of future
history that bis real worth will be
recognized and properly appre-
ciated. Like Washington and
Lincoln, abused and slandered in
their last days, but became great
in the estimation of the people in
after years. so will Wilson live in
the hearts of the people.
