WASHINGTON, D. c., July 20
Friends of former Governor William
Hodges Mann among the Virginia
Congressional delegation, have been
using their best efforts within the
past week, it is learned, to secure his
| appointment as a special commits
sioner to settle outstanding pecuni-
ary claims between the United States
and Great Britain.
This appointment comes under the
Department of State, and members
of the delegation, particularly Con-
gressmen Flood and Watson, who
have led the movement, have placed
the matter before Secretary Bryan
and urged him to appoint Governor
Mann.
Through the passage of the diplo-
matte and consular bill, prepared by
Congressman Floods committee, the
State Department is authorized to ap-
point an agent to arbitrate these
differences.
Both Senators Martin and Swanson
and all the members of the congress
sional delegation, with the exception
of Congressman Jones, have formally
endorsed Governor Mann
But the former Governor does not
know anything about the efforts be-
'ing:naade in his aehalf,i and lis i'm no
way responsible for the initiation of
the movement. 1t is not known by
Congressmen :, Flood E'iWatson
whether he will accept, but it is
hoped that he will if the position can
be secured for hiin
The commissionership :. is Ito pay
$500 year salary, and it is be-
lieved it will require about one year
to complete the work. 1t will be
necessary for the Governor to make a
visit of about two months to London,
but the remainder of the time will be
spent in Washington.
