"ROUGHING IT"
bitterness equalled only by the
fury with which the enemies of the
league attacked Mr. Wilson; while
lilh own friends and followers the
Massachusetts senator was eulog
ized and revered as the savior of
American liberties.
It may be that history never will
know tho full story of that epochal
struggle, which lifted both Lodge
and Wilson to new heights of lead
ership. As each had been a dominat
ing figure In the making of his
tory. so each had hoped to become
at last the historian of his times;
hut, worn by the rigor of battle,
both have fallen Into their-last
sleep without completing the work
that circumstances and nature
seemed Inclined to have patterned
for them. When Mr. Wilson died,
he left only scrape and patches of
the great human chronicle he had
hoped to aet down for future gen
eration*. A few week* ago Mr.
Lodge confided to friends that he
was gathering material for a Btory
of the league fight in the senate,
nnd for other history of tho great
daye of his intimate association
with men and affair*. The task
never was finished.
TOUCH OF ROMANCE
IN FIRST CONTACT
There was a touch of romance in
the first chance contact of these
two brilliant mental forces to meet
In such furious combat. They
• rushed elbows, in a spiritual sense,
nearly a half-century ago, nnd al
though Mr. Lodge hnd forgotten It
until years afterward, Mr. Wilson al
way* remembered tt. It came to
light again soon after the Inaugura
tion of 1913, when the new chief
Massachusetts met at a dedicatory
service In Washington formally
were presented to one another and
shook hands.
"You may not recall, Mr. Presi
dent" said Senotor I-odge, "but I
met you for n moment some years
ago, at a college commencement
when you were president of'Prince
ton."
"Oh, I remember you long before
that" replied Mr. Wilson. "A man
never forgets the editor who pub
lishes his first article.”
The senator was puzzled until It
was explained that as editor of the
International Review in the late
70's, he had accepted for publica
tion a treatise on government writ,
ten by Woodrow Wilson, a student
nt Princeton. Mr. Lodge went homo
nnd msdc a search of his corres
pondence ftles and found there a
letter about the article, written hint
by the future president. It t* char
acteristic of the hen* of the his
torian that until his death that the
letter remained tn tho senator’s
collections of cherished documents.
THEY NEVER
WERE FRIENDS
During the earlier years of the
first Wilson admlnimratton the
relations between Mr. Wilton nnd
Mr. Lodge were without feature.
They met on occasions but not
often. They never were friends. It
was not In the nature of either to
Impose cordiality where he thought
tt might not t>e welcomed, or to
override hy sheer will tlmt indefin
able feeling of restraint which now
and again springs up unbidden be
tween two strong Individualities.
The actual breach tn their rela
tionship was reached late In 1916.
Many stories of how It came about
have been whispered shout Wash
ington. but here follows the actual
sequence of events during that pe
riod of rapid and final transition:
On the night of Oltoher 26. 1916,
tn a campaign speech at Brockton.
Mass., senator Lodge declared with,
out qualification that President
Wilson had nddrd a "postscript" to
the second T.usttantn note to Ger
many assuring tha Imperial gov
emment that some of the previous
vigorous American pronouncements
on the subject "were not to be taken
seriously." The charge wns dented
by some of Mr. Wilson's friend, hut
It was repeated hy Senator Lodge
at Ogdenshurg, N, Y„ on October
*9th. Then, on the following day
Mr. Wilson !**u<Sl a formal stats
ment saying the assertion of Sena
tor Lodge was "untrue "
Beneath the terse phrases of the
president’s dental there ws* ap
parent to those who knew him, a
portentlous depth of feeling. Sena
tor Lodge replied tn terms quite a*
direct, saving he would not ques
tion the word of the president of the
United P'-uea and must nccept th#
denial: hut he recalled that the
nuhorlty on which he made hla
original statement had appeared to
him unimpeachable. To his dying
day, the senator believed he had
hern foiled hy a clevar use of lang
uage. and 'hat aonte sort of simple,

they submerged personal considera
tion to support measures and poli
cies that they both believed for the
good of their country. It is a part
of hiatory how, later on. each act
his face resolutely along a different
pathway in the league of nati- 3
fight and how all efforts oflhelr
best friends failed to discover any
common ground on which both
were willing to stand. They ex
changed words for the last time on
March 4, 1921, when Wilson went
to the capltoi for the Harding in
auguration ceremonies: Lodge, in
his role ns leader of the majority,
entered the president's room to go
unamllingly through thj formality
of announcing that the olcl congress
was ready to adjourn ulees the chief
executive had somnt further com
munication to make to it. At first
apparently oblivious to the pres
ence of the senate leader. Mr. Wil
son turned to him after a tense
pause and aald In a tone whose
sharpness never will be forgotten
by those who heard:
"I have no further communica
tion to make. I appreciate your
courtesy. Good morning."
Two years later when death laid
Its hand on Wilson, Lodge rose In
his place In the senate, according
to tho custom that goes with lead
ership there, and pronounced a brief
eulogy to the Intellectual attain
ments of the departed war presi
dent. Unknown to him or to mem
bers of the Wilson family he was
named on a committee to represent
the senate at the funeral, but a for
mat statement from his office an
nounced that a slight Illness would
prevent hla attendance. And thus
was written the final chapter of the
earthly relationship between two
proud and militant Americans.

Assistant Attorney General T. R.
Gress was asked Saturday for an
opinion as to the legality of cotton
brokerage houses such as those
raided by the solicitor. He stated
that he knew -nothing as to the
inapner or methods under which
these establishments have been
conducted.
“However,'' added Mr. Gress. "the
code of Georgia is extremely ex
plicit in prohibiting dealings in fu
tures, nnd it seems to me that all
that is needed by anyone who
wishes to understand the law on
the subject is to read those sec
tions of the code pertaining to it.
Whether it is wise, in public policy,
to strictly enforce the provisions of
the code is another question en
tirely. The sworn officers of the
law, ljpwever, are of course pre
sumed to enforce the law in its
entirety. If the law is unfair and
inadvisable, it is the fault of the
legislature which enacted It and
not the fault of the officer who
tries to uphold It."
