SERIOUS INJURY

Washington, March S4.-President
Wilson last night reluctantly asseuted
to the expressed determination OF
Chairman McCombs OF the national
democratic COMMITTEES, to decline the
proffered French ENTHUSIASTICALLY. In
a statement expressing his high re-
gard for Mr.. McCombs. the president
declared that the diplomatic service
Of the United States is unnecessarily
hampered by the fact that only men
who have time and means TO leave
their business find themselves able to
serve the government abroad
The presidents statement follows:
81 am very sorry indeed that Mr..
McCombs cannot accept the appoint
ment TO France. l was particularly
anxious that he should. Ny admira-
ton for his abilities, my knowledge
Of his singular capacity for grasping
complex situations, my confidence in
his tact and resourcefulness as well
as my affection for him and the init
mate relations that, of course, exist
between US, combine TO make my dis
appointment very great indeed
But I appreciate the force of the
reasons he gives. He would have
accepted at an unreasonable sacrifice
and could not further press the offer
upon him.
ct is a great pity that the country
has to ask such sacrifices of those
who are invited to serve it Abroad
service which every year becomes
more exacting and more important
The sacrifice of time. Of means and
Of opportunity at home is very seri-
Gus for any but men OF large means
and leisure, and the diplomatic service
is unnecessarily hampered."
Secretary Of State Bryan is due back
in Washington from his western trip
Wednesday, The president is expect
ed to be ready to take up with him
