		Wilson continued the policy of curbing monopoly by creating (1914) the Federal Trade Commission to investigate and expose unfair practices of corporations, pushed the passage (1914) of the Clayton Antitrust Act, and instituted antitrust proceedings in 92 cases.
		Wilson refused to recognize Huerta on the grounds that he had gained power by assassinating his predecessor, and instead resorted to a policy of “watchful waiting.” In 1914, this policy ended when U.S. marines landed in Veracruz in retaliation for the arrest of U.S. sailors in Tampico.
		Wilson was received in Europe with warm ovations and set about trying to create a new world society, which would be governed by the “self-determination of peoples,” which would be free from secret diplomacy and wars, and, most important, which would have an association of nations to maintain international justice.

	Welcome to The American Presidency
		Born Thomas Woodrow Wilson in Staunton, Va., on Dec. 28, 1856, he was the son of Joseph Ruggles Wilson, who was the pastor of the Presbyterian Church in Staunton, Va. The elder Wilson accepted a call to Augusta, Ga., in 1857.
		Wilson received the nomination on June 15, but the Democrats cheered so wildly for peace that the Democratic campaign slogan was changed from "Preparedness" to "He Kept Us Out of War." Wilson took up the peace theme at the same time that he set out to win a large number of former Progressives.
		Wilson was also commander in chief of the largest armed forces in American history; this fact necessitated frequent consultations with military leaders, particularly General Pershing, commander of the American Expeditionary Force in France.

		Although Wilson did not attack the clubs in their most vulnerable spot--their reputation for exclusiveness--he evoked such violent opposition from alumni and students that the trustees quickly withdrew the approval they had tentatively given.
		Wilson was easily the most commanding figure--the best informed, the man most deeply committed to principles, and the one who, as we can now see, could judge immediate plans by long-range standards.
		It stripped Germany of her colonies and saddled her with a huge liability for reparations; it reduced the German Army to impotence; worst of all, it was a diktat imposed on the conquered enemy, not the negotiated settlement that the Armistice agreement had implied.

	Woodrow Wilson's Burden, Bush's--And Ours
		Wilson, the son of a Presbyterian minister, saw the United States as the “Elect” nation, with the right and obligation to “do justice and assert the rights of mankind.” The born-again (in essence, self-Elected) Bush takes a similar view of his nation’s divine role.
		Wilson, on the other hand, tried to argue from a “right-makes-might” position that might usefully be termed “Social Calvinism.” Bush, while he certainly seems to think that American military power allows him to do as he pleases, also tends toward the right-makes-might argument, as he showed in his recent address.
		Wilson was a racist (to cite one example, he heaped praise on D.W Griffith’s cinematic paean to the Klan, Birth of a Nation) and did not think that his call for self-determination applied to non-whites.

		Although Penzias and Wilson first detected this noise, called “cosmic background radiation,” it was Princeton University physicist Robert H. Dicke who first proposed that such evidence of the Big Bang might still exist.
		Robert Dicke was born on 6 May 1916 in St Louis, Missouri.
		In the mid-1960s, when Arno Penzias and Robert Wilson, pioneers of the Big Bang Theory, announced they had detected an unexpected and relatively high level of radiation, Dicke proposed that this was cosmic radiation left over from the Big Bang.
