According to President & Chief Justice William Howard Taft, Wilson was disappointed in the attitude of (McReynolds) (because) "Mr. Wilson is in favor of a latitudinarian construction of the Constitution of the United States to weaken the protection it should afford against socialistic raids upon property rights, with the direct and inevitable result of paralyzing the initiative  and enterprise of capital necessary to the real progress of all."
