LONDON. April THE Nation,
weekly newspaper of Liberal tendeu-
cies. deals at length with the inter
esting experiment" in his reversion to
the scholar diplomat President VIII
son has made in his appointment o.
Walter Hines Page as Ambassador 10
the Court of ST. James
an offering the London Embassy
to Mr.. Page" The Nation says, Pres
ident Wilson has made an interesting
experiment He has boldly reverted
to the scholar diplomat as the type Of
man most qualified to represent the
United States abroad In doing so ne
has paid a silent but striking compli-
ment to the good sense of the British
people.
He has assumed that what we
most value in an American Ambassa-
dor is not his wealth and his ability
to lavish ii on magnificent houses and
huge entertainments, but his person
ality and his achievements and the
extent to which he brings with him
the true flavor of American life"
The Nation declares that President
Roosevelt tried the same experiment
with Dr. David jayne Hill, FORMER
American Ambassador to Germany,
and then says:
DIR Hills predecessor was Mr.
Charlemagne Tower, a gentleman Of
very great wealth. He was prodigal
Of fetes and receptions. He leased the
finest house in the capital and greatly
pleased the Emperor by the splendor
he was able to maintain.
There is no need TO go into the de-
tails of the unhappy but Illuminating
sequel. When the Emperor learned
that whatever DIR. Hills other uualifl-
cations for the post were, his private
means would only permit him 20
maintain modest establishment and
that the days of splash and glitter
were over, II was one OF those incl
dents that revealed a man and a So
ciety. Neither the Emperor nor Ber-
lin came out Of It with credit"
