ABSTRACT
It must be delightful to live in a world where all the heroes are on your side and all the villains are on the other. If only the real world of men and affairs were arranged that way, how simple it would all be. Then one could say, as our neighbor the Herald Tribune said yesterday, that the opposition to [Charles Evans] Hughes was inspired simply by “envy, suspicion and trouble-making” and that it was “a symptom of aggravated degeneracy.”
