That reminds me OF n remark made

Send us statesmen, he said. not
peddlers.' Salcsmanship. especially
foreign saiesmanship. is just as much
a science to be acquired by careful
study and training, as medicine or
law. Do not take people whose only
qualification is knowledge OF

Spanish thoroughly Then send him
out. Never send any one to a Latin
American country, or for that matter.

a gentleman. And remember that you
cannot send too good man. The
English. the French. the Germans and
other Europeans are sending their
