Mr. Roosevelt in his most progressive days. The eight-hour law for railroaders in interstate commerce and the abolishment of human slavery on shipboard were progressive measures supported by the president In face of the opposition of powerful influence from “the Solid South,” Mr, Wilson made the child labor law his especial care. fect upon future generations means higher citizenship and a stronger nation Wilson stood solidly for it in defiance of the adverse demands of a large representa- tion of his party and of unanimous Special Privilege. Previous to the enactment of the federal reserve banking law, the nation, partic- ularly the farmers and other producers, was at the mercy of any combination of credit gamblers that could reap profit in a panic. It was surely progressive to pass this measure, and President Wilson was a progressive on the job. The farmers of this country, the backbone and sinews of this country, have always had to pay the biggest interest, always had to put up the best security—their homes, farms, cattle and tools—always had to be the most abject beggars for credit Progressive Woodrow Wilson put himself behind the rural credits law, which makes the needy farmer a man asking his rights before his government, instead of a beggar at the mercy of loan sharks. What can the progressives who principle’s sake call this but progressivism? There are other progressive measures that must be credited to the Wilson adminis- tration, such as the opening up of Alaska, the making of a government armor plant, the establishment of nitrate plants, which will be turning out cheap fertilizer for the farmer, the law creating a tariff commission, and the program for government battle- ship construction in our own navy yards. Indeed, if we consider all that Woodrow Wilson has done for progress, it is diffi- cult not to believe that he was elected president by those four million courageous, man- loving Americans who, in 1912, told party to go to the devil and voted for a new nationalism which should mean genuine human progress.
