In 1917 President Wilson most surprisingly, as it seems

to me in retrospect, brought America into the European war. It

was surprising because the pressures were so much less compelling

than in 1941, and yet Wilson acted much more determinedly and more

precipitately than Roosevelt. As a result, there was a brief period

after 1918 when he exercised an overwhelming sway in Europe.

There may have been a touch of irony in Maynard Keyes'

writing of his arrival, but even so he used words which could not

have been used of any other President without turning irony into

farce.

"When President Wilson left Washington, he enjoyed a prestige

and a moral influence throughout the world unequalled in history.A'

His bold and measured words carried to the peoples of Europe above

and beyond the voices of their own politicians .... Never had a

philosopher held such weapons wherewith to bind the princes of the

world. How the crowds of the European capitals pressed about the

President! With what curiosity, anxiety and hope we sought a glimpse

of the features and bearing of the man of destiny who, coming from

the West, was to bring healing to the wounds of the ancient parent

of his civilization and lay for us the foundations of the future."

But Wilson was a knight on his own. And American politics

were still regarded by many otherwise well-informed people as not

worthy of serious study, a mixture of the squalid# and the common.

It was a far cry from today, when political scientists from Oxford

to Upsala study every detail of the psephological history of New

Hampshire or Michigan or Mississippi.

Wilson arose for a brief period like a saint who had been

mysteriously wafted up out of the poker rooms. Then he disappeared

almost in a puff of smoke. Teapot Dome replaced the moral imperatives

of the philosopher-king, and Europe for another decade and more felt

it had been right in its detached and superior view of American

politics.
