NorthClifTe'S Mission

A MERlcA will heartily welcome Lord
Northc!inc as a special commissioner
from Great Britain whether he comes on
diplomatic mission or on business 1t has
been somewhat loosely said that the great
English editor will be Mr.. Balfour's successor
as head Of a British mission. That is true
only to the extent that he will head the
mission and that he follows Mr. Balfour
/, Is not likely. however, that his diplomatic
or political duties will be more than in
cidenta
According to the London Chronicle, North
clihcs service in this country will be devoted
largely TO the coordination of purchases of
supplies. That In itself Is work of vast
Importance, 10 this country no less than TO
Great Britain. and 1t will be well 10 have
the assistance OF Northcliffc's energy and
ability. At the same time. it is not the habi,
OF the man to be content with a single
sharply defined task. He is PERHAPS as
familiar with the situation in Europe as any
man IN the world, and 1t is not to be believed
that he VIII suffer himself to occupy AT all
times the position o! purchasing agent
even If he has official or formal diplo
matte status.
There is a great deal that ought TO he
brought home TO Americans, and no doubt
Lord Northcliffc will find time and oppor-
tnnity to inform them
