IMPROVE CONSULAR SERVICE.
United States to Appoint Only Effic
len Men to Foreign Posts.

Washington, D. C.-Hereafter there
will be no purely ornamental faces
in the foreign service of the United
States. While this cannot be said
to be new policy it is the declared
intention of the present admin.
istration, and especially of the state
department., that there shall be no
deviation from it. This rule will not
be made to apply only to the diplo.
matte service, but to the consular of.
fee of the United States from the
highest to the lowest.
In years past there have been many
complaints that the consular service
of the United States was, generally
speaking, inefficient, and of a much
lower grade than that of any foreign
countries having representatives in
the United States.
The state department officials them
selves in previous years have &C
knowledged this, and while the serv
ice has been improved of late, it hal
not made the rapid advance that il
noticeable in the service Of some Of
our foreign trade competitors.

The proposal to increase the rev.
enues of New Jersey by charging the
assessment on corporations is frankly
defended on the ground that the state
is poor and needs the money. Surely,
straightforward admission. Doubt
less the trusts organized under the
New Jersey law will not vehemently
oppose the plan, for they derive from
the state privileges worth even the
heavier price Senator Frelinghuysen
proposes to exact. To pay up would
be cheaper than to shut up or move.
