Few, can read the almost daily appointment of Big Business men to high office under the U.S. President Woodrow Wilson Administration without mingled feelings. In all business circles there is doubtless relief that practical men, conversant with large affairs, have been summoned to the nation's councils, for there has been an honest feeling of unrest that affairs involving billions should be in the hands of men who were without experience in large business enterprises. There has been a belief that the Administration has been needlessly amateurish in a situation of a magnitude so staggering as to be literally overwhelming.
