FIRST YEAR OF THE HARD
ING ADMINISTRATION.
BY CORDELL HULL,
Chairman Democratic National Committee

Washington, March 6-Two or
three Republican leaders just
now are engaged in the ungraci-
GUS task of trying to picture to
the country a creditable record
for the Harding Administrator
thus far.
In order to measure the heights
to which person or a political
party rises in any endeavor,
there must first be established a
base line.
Republican accomplishments
must inevitably be weighed and
their merits determined in the
light of Republican reelection
promises, and also in connection
with the unusal opportunities for
greater service than. in strictly
normal times when the opportu-
nifty and the need for service are
only ordinary.
If a political party wholly fails
to meet reasonable expectations
in complying with its promises,
or to rise to a great occasion
which must be met by the wisest
and most constructive means,
than that party is a failure as
an agency of government even
though it does perform the usual
ordinaoy and common place
functions which only normal
conditions require.
The true test of Republican
success or failure during the
past twelve months is the ques-
tion of whether the party lead
ers were able to visualize the
physical facts showing the true
position of America, political
and economic under postwar
conditions; their true relation
ship of the world situation, and
to conceive and apply such sound
economic and other policies as
would best safeguard our
economic and other essential
interests and meet our plain re-
sponsibilities in the same con-
hection. and thereby enable
America to steer such wise and
correct course as would nest
rebound to the safety and pres
perity of herself and of the
world.
The mere pointing 10 incense
uuential bugetary paper savings
at the treasury or to the usual
public highway appropriations,
or to the passage of many bri Ice
and dam bills, or to the taking of
a minor and q partial step in
dealing with combined domestic
and world peace and economic
conditions by a restricted disar-
mament conference-these ac-
complichments when compared
with the really great and funda-
mental problems to be solved and
the corresponding duties and
opportunities to do so to the
lasting good of the people here
and everywhere dwindle into
comparative insignifcance. A
political party that has thus sig.
nally failed on a great occasion
is stopped from an excuse or
even a plea in mitigation.
Republican leaders were sup
posed to have a full and correct
grasp of postwar conditions and
problems. and a program of
sound remedies therefor when
they made their innumerable
promises to the people for sup
port in 1920. If they did have
such program matured, or, if
having it. they unanswered
themselves into such an impossi-
bic position. by antagonizing
most all the domestic and for
eign policies of the party then in
power, for the sole purpose of
getting controle of the govern
ment, with the result that they
could not late execute any in

| charge that the Republican
Leadership from 1918 to 1921
wholly failed to grasp world
fac and conditions and
An cas- true relation to them.
Instead of so doing, these leaders
early in 1919 proclaimed the
policy of every nation for
itself" and of commercial iso-
lation" for ourselves. At this
very time the crying reed was
the futher establishment of peace
conditions everywhere by the
close moral and economic CO.
operation of all nations,
especially the stronger, ones.
The second step was that
which is even still demanded,
that all governments should
speedily balance their budgets,
establish sound currency system,
maintain trade-relations, and
proceed with the work Of catch
iEg up with the production. Re-
publican opposition at every
stage was a chief factor in dead

ing Europe at a standstill dur
ing the same time, with the re-
suit that no concerted efforts to
avoid or to lessen the violent
panic conditions, that came
largely as a result, were made
by the various nations.
The great reconstruction pro-
gram offered by this government
in 1919 dealing with all postwar
conditions was defeated or in-
definitely delayed by Republi-
can Congress. The present ad
ministration is now proposing to
the extent that is Offering any
practical, sound plans, the same
remedies to restore this county
from panic conditions that a
Democratic administration pro.
posed in 1919 to avo d them.
Democrats then proposed.
among other things, early world
disarmament of every kind not
of a few major battleships mere
ly large reductions of war taxes
which disarmament Immediately
would have made possiable:
credit and other facilities to
maintain our foreign markets:
cautiously dealing with credit ex-
pansion, suppressing wild spec
ulation, promoting full and
peaceful employment Of labor
and capital. early return of
public utilities to private opera
ton, vigorous handling of the
high cost of living problems,
speedy rehabilitation of the
army, early removal of war re-
strictions, speedy budget and
water power legislation, and
punishment of criminal profiteer-
ing,
Had the Republican leaders
patriotically Joined during 1919
and 1920 in putting these pro-
posals into prompt effect,
Americas business and economic
con lition today would be vastly
different. Three big results of
such blind partisan negation at
that stage are the loss of our
foreign markets, the consequen
ruin vf our once great merchant
marine, and failure appreciably
to reduce taxes. This nation
can never get out of the present
economic slough of despond"
and back to sound stable pros
perity until our foreign market
conditions are restored to a
healthy reciprocal basis and
radical reductions of all govern
mental expenditures are effected.
The Republican high tariff
policy and commercial isolation,
which thus far have been their
outstanding remedies for al
postwar ills, fly in the face Of

had been damaged and no other exter-
minator being available the member
wrote to Mr.. Allison and asked for aid
