This article focuses on various socio-political issues. The U.S. President Woodrow Wilson's first term was dislocated by the great war. Through two and one-half years of the four he had to face enormous difficulties which had swum into no man's ken at the time when he was elected. Wilson himself has spoken of the fiery trial through which he has had to pass. The end of it is not yet; so that final judgment cannot now be given upon the credit or discredit with which he will come out of it. The President's bitterest enemies is in proportion to the number of enemies he has made past four years. Of this a large part lay along the line of political sagacity and political management.
