and formerly second assistant secretary OF
state, has been chosen to succeed Judge
Day as assistant secretary of state.
Appointed originally from Delaware in
the State Department by Mr.. Bayard, when
the latter was Secretary, Mr.. Moore, by
merit and ability, worked his way up to
the place of second assistant secretary
and in that capacity he served under sew
eral administrations without regard TO po-
liticai changes. He resigned his place in
the State Department to accept the chair
of international law at Columbia Cniver-
sity about three years ago. and it is be-
Heved that his present appointment is only
temporary, owing to his inJispostion to
permanently sever his connections with
Columbia. Mr.. Moore is an authority on
certain branches Of international law, and
his selection will do much to strengthen
the State Department in the present emer-
gency. He is now in the city, and will he
