Editorial notes show Wilson policies live on under Harding

The Annapolis Capital notes Harding echoes Wilson foreign policy on issues from the Columbian treaty to Ireland and China. It argues the League of Nations is the practical path for peace, while criticizing Republican leaders for opposing it. It warns about subsidies funding shipping via customs revenue and frames the plan as a burden on the public. It also cites Maine and Virginia political moves, crab industry protections, and New York mayor Hylan’s salary rise as related political barometers.
