The adju'tments that should have been made along the way were not made because there was not time; we need to make some of them now, and we cant do it unless we study our history and see just what happened and how it happened. This doesnt mean that every novelist must immehi.stoi-iediately get out his reference hooks and fall to on a romance. We need light on the present as well as on the past. But it does mean that this fictional preoccupation with bygone days is a healthy thing. The more we know' about our own yesterdays, the better shall we he uble to prepare for our tomorrows. al CANT HUSTLE AMERICA RULE INTO ONE-MAN of the encouraging things about our republic is the ONE it has of smacking a man down just when he begins to think he knows all the answers. You could dig enough illustrations out of the history books to fill a column, hut a few recent ones will suffice. The most striking case is that of Woodrow Wilson. Mr. Wilson was probably the most powerful leader in all the world on Nov. 11, 1918. Indeed, he could be called one of the three or four most powerful leaders in all history. He had settled the greatest war of all time; he alone, among all the allied statesmen, seemed to have a k world to realizaplan for bringing the hopes of a tion. For i little while he held the whole world in his war-sic- hand. But the cheers had not died away before Mr. Wilson collided head-o- n with the ancient, invincible reluctance of the American people to he hustled. And the first thing anyone knew he was a tragically rebuffed and thwarted man, his high hopes and grandiose plans wrecked by the simple fact that the repir r had got tired of seeing one man lay down the law to it. a smaller scale you could repe.,' the parallel with ON Last fall Mr. Roosevelt won a 1). Roosevelt. landslide election as no president I ad'ore had ever won one. The opposition was utterly overwhelmed. In the emigre's he had a majority which made all former majorities look insignificant. If ever there was a president who could be pardoned for supposing that his wold was Mr. Roosevelt was the man. And so what? So the first major program he handed to congress the plan for revising the supreme court was riddled with hostile bullets and finally was rejected hy a senate committee in a report as biting and critical any in the annals of that historic house. And the president learned what Mr. Wilson had learned that the American people will take nothing from anyone unless, upon talking it over, they decide that they happen to like it. Lesser examples abound in recent memory. There was the case of Father Coughlin, who looked for a time as if lie were going to be the uncrowned king of American politics, but who wound up completely beaten when the There was Dr. Townsend, at votes had been counted. whose nod legislators trembled for many a long month until, at last, the people had had enough.
