A previously unpublished letter of Woodrow Wilson, in_which he com- mended Gov. Alfred E. Smith to an unnamed but “well known citizen of New York,” has been made public. “I hope and believe,” wrote Presi- dent Wilson, “that you will not be disappointed in Gov. Smith. He is a man who has stood quite apart in a great many ways, and I believe he feels in an unusual degree the Im- pulses and compulsions of the changed order of the Nation's and the world’s affairs.” The letter, written in February, 1919, was made public last night on the occasion of a meeting in Albany of local subscribers to the Wilson Foundation.
