1t is somewhat strange that very many
intelligent people should fall into the
opinion that man was qualified to rep
resent the country abroad because he
had written book. Many fine writers
have been the most lacking in all requi-
sites characteristics that Minister to
Great Britain should possess, and we are
therefore, not, surprised that the Senate
Committee should report adversely to
the Presidents nomination of RicharI l
II. Dana, Jr., for that high position. 1t
should be filed by man of practical
knowledge, of great learning and ability.
1t is even disputed that Mr.. Danna is
the author of all that his reputed work
contains. But this is not all. There is
no evidence that he is such man as the
position requires. He lacks the practi-
cal knowledge and shrewdness that
should distinguish one fit to represent us
at the first court of Europe.
