Ave. N.W. Alexandria, Va., Branch, 818 King St. Effectsof TwoYears of Republican Rule Complete control of the Government has been enjoyed by the Republican party for the two years ending March 4th, when the Congress adjourned. With the prospect of ninc months’ recess before its successor is convened, and with the looming of the 1924 presi- dential campaign, it seems an opportune time for political stock-taking. For this reason. THE LITERARY DIGEST telegraphed to a number of representative leaders of the Re publican and Democratic parties asking them to give DIGEST readers their estimates ‘of the result of two vears of Republican control in Washington. ’ Among those who have answered are: Senators La Follette of Wiscousin, Brookhart o lowa, Robinson of Arkansas, Ralston of Indiana, Harrison of Mississippi, Lodge of Massu chusetts, Capper*of Kansas, Honorable William J. Bryan. ex-Governor James A. Cox of Ohio. Secretary of Interior Work. The answers make interesting reading and show a wide range in expression of opinion. Senato La Follette’s verbal brickbat concludes, “Thanks to executive incompetence, indecision and misinforma- tion, American people now enjoy broken-down railroads, fifteen-dollar coal and ten-cent sugar. The last act of Administration forces was to block investigation of infamous sugar swindle.” At the other extreme, Senator Lodge concludes a hearty tribute to the Administration in these words, “When time brings its perspective to us, we shall see that this has been one of the most efficient and effective Con aresses the country has ever had; no Administration has had to deal with more difficult problems.
