What motives inspired and what influences shaped those actions will be revealed as Mr. Lawrence weaves into his story inside facts and explodes fallacies regarding one of the greatest figures in world history. Not a eulogy—nor a criticism—but a straightforward relating of unpublished incidents which throw a true light on his distinguished subject and his achievements. As a student at Princeton under Mr. Wilson’s professorship—later as a correspondent of the Associated Press assigned to “cover” this man destined to greatness—and later as an inde- pendent correspondent, Mr. Lawrence won and held Mr. Wilson’s confidence and close friend- ship. He writes of what he knows—the things that history should record and every American wants to know, regardless of political persuasion or personal opinion.

As Governor of New Jersey— How the break with Princeton threw him into politics. As President of the United States— With the terrific duties and responsibilities that the world war heaped upon his shoulders—a burden which no other President has been called upon to assume. His Family and Social Life— Concerning which there is much misunderstanding; but which Mr. Lawrence makes clear. Was Mr. Wilson cold, austere, domineering? Was he friendly, socially inclined, personally likable? What did Mr. Wilson think of Col. House, Ambassador Page and his cabinet? What was the true inside of the Mexican situation? The Bryan resignation? The Peace Conference? "« These are some of the many questions concerning Mr. Wilson, and the stir.ring events of his administration, which Mr. Lawrence will answer with the definiteness of actual knowledge—things with which at the time of their occurrence the public could not be made fully familiar—and which at no time since has opportunity for explanation been offered until now. Mr . Lawrence’s story of Mr. Wilson is the greatest contribution to current history ever made—about a man to whom the entire world has bowed in homage and whose memory is revered—alike by friend and opponent. To read this story is to know Woodrow Wilson as he truly was and as Mr. Lawrence was privileged to see and study him.

By the Awsociated Press. CHICAGO, February 19.—February is bringing an improvement to the regular midwinter decline {n employ- ment in the middle west, the month- 1y survey of Iilinots, Indlana, Michi- gan, Ohlo, and Wisconsin, just issued by Barney Cohen, district director of the United States employment serv- ice, says. The January sag in industry, though “quite general,” proved slighter than vey. The situation is described as fol- . lows: Indiana—While the employment situation is not bad, calls for labor, except skilled, are slight. Michigan—There is a slight eurplus of common labor created by laborers being released from road and bufld- ing trades work, not from any cessa- tion of industrial activity. The farm labor situation in Michigan is far from satisfactory, shortage of farm help still prevalls. Ohlo—Employment appears on an upward trend. The present outlook for building is favorable.
