Gossip in Administration

Become Factor.

Gossip concerning the return OF Min
lister Brand Whitlock. OF Ohio, from
his post at Brussels to the United
States continues to be current and or
many varieties.
Although the state Department insists
that there Is nothing of political ma
ture In the return Of Mr. Whtlock and
that 1t Is due only to his III health.
rumors are going the rounds that he Is
favored by the Wilson Administration
for Vice President. Another rumor is
that the Ohio Democrats will put him
forward for governor.
Such reports are not admitted to have
anv foundation in Administration quar-
tors.
Another angle to the Whitlock case is
the German allegation that the British
government was guilty of bad faith in
changing the reports made by tho
American minister In such way as to
reflect on officials OF. the German mill
tary regime In Belgium II IL said Min
lister Whitlocks reports. which were
published by the British government.
were sent by him to Ambassador Page
for his information" 1t IL strongly
intimated that Mr.. Whitlock did not in
tend what he said for the Information
Of Page to be given to the press.
This phase of the situation has led
TO a recurrence of talk that back OF
the proposed visit of Minister Whit
lock to this country is some form o!
expression from Germany OF the dis.
pleasure Of that government toward
him.
The nomination OF Mr.. Whitlock for
Vice President would be highly salts

have TO face the problem whether II
would help the Democratic party with
the German voters.
