appointed Allen Thomas. who. since Janu-

TO be United States minister to Vene-

due TO the Presidents confidence in his
fitness, largely based upon the acceptable

selection OF those entering the service.
but by the promotion Of those who have
demonstrated fitness and a disposition to
be useful at less important posts.
