Will this judgment, born of momen-
tary disillusion and disappointment,
stand in future, or will 1t be reversed I?
The time has not come to pass final
judgment on either Wilson or any OF
the other great actors in the drama at
Paris. The personal estimates wilde
pend largely on the Interpretation of
that drama in the course of time. As
one VINO saw and watched things from
the inside / feel convinced that the
present popular estimates are largely
superficial and Will not stand the
searching test of time. And / have no
doubt whatever that Wilson has been
harshly, unfairly. unjustly dealt with,
and that he has been made scrape-
goat for the sins of others. Wilson
made mistakes, and there were oeca-
sions when I ventured to sound
warning note. But 1t was not his mis-
takes that caused the failure for which
he has been held mainly responsible.
Let US admit the truth, however bit-
ter It is to do so for those who believe
in human nature. It was not Wilson
who failed The position is far more
serious. II was the human spirit itself
that failed at Paris. 1t is no nse pass

LINCOLN HIGHWAY IS WONDER

Unrealixed Dream--Speeifcations
Not Decided.

Seven years ago the idea of trans
continental highway connecting New
York with San Francisco, improved
throughout its length and forming a
backbone for great national system
of arterial roads, was only dream In
the minds of few. Today the accom-.
plishment of this great memorial route
stretching from ocean to ocean Is as
Sured.
The Lincoln highway breathes the
twentieth century. In years to come 1t
will be adorned, as were the Roman

path of advancement, golden chain
linking the Atlantic to the Pacific.
The motor truck is In Its infancy
and highway freight transportation as
an adjunct to the railroad Is only just

association feels that 1t Is we'll within
its province to act as clearing house
