Mr. Wilson has refused to enforce the law. Many Republicans will press Mr. Harding to enforce it. Mr. Harding has advertised dollar diplomacy under other names. He has talked of the danger of commercial friction with us and other Powers. He has criticized the Democrats for not upholding the hands of Americans in the struggle with British interests for the control of the world's oil resources.conve
Does all this mean that we may fear From the Republicans a recrudescence of that policy which made their old tariff lavs carry fighting clauses?: Does it mean that the United States may not be averse from competition in paval arma- ments. There might under Mr. Harding be a reaction in domestic affairs. The spirits of liberalism and extremism abroad in the land might conceivably be con- gealed by it into an effective.organization. Of reaction in foreign policy there would seem to be less danger. The United States is already pledged to a large naval programme.
