Earl Reading, lord chief justice, has
been appointed British high commits
sioner to the United States. Besides
taking over work of the British en-
bassy in Washington, he will have
charge of the work of the British war
mission and it's establishments in New
York and Washington.
Lord Readings work will, according
to the understanding in official circles,
deal mainly with financial and general
I business matters and he will be reliev-
ed of ordinary ambassadorial func-
tiOns.
1t is understood Earl Reading will
retain his position of lord chief JUS
tice.
The appointment is revolutionary
not alone in that it is the first time
that the second highest judicial Of
fetal in England has been requisition-
affairs, but in that the appOintee is
of Jewish extraction. Earl Reading
is the son of an obscure Jewish i'm
migrant.
Lord Reading had, of course, earned
distinction at the bar and in politics
before he was elevated to his present
position of Lord Chief Justice of Eng
land. Nevertheless he was not one of
those men whose future career is
plainly indicated from the earliest
days"

a branch of the family business in
Magdeburg, Germany. This, however,
pleased him no better, and, two years
later, he was back again in London
and embarked on career on the
stock exchange.
Meeting with even less success here,
he determined to become lawyer,
and in this profession he found him
self, quickly became famous as
great financial lawyer, and was ever
in demand whether for offense or de-
fense, where a case of peculiar COM
plexity was to be heard. His intimate
acquaintance with the city stood him
a large practice.
In 1904 he entered Parliament in the
Liberal interest as member for Read
ing, and continued to represent that
constituency in the House of Com
mons until 1913, when he was ap
pointed Lord Chief Justice of England,
He was Solicitor-G General in 1910, and
Attorney-General from 1910 to 1913,
being given a seat in the Cabinet in
1912.
Lord Reading was raised to the
peerage as Baron Reading in 1914, and
his great services in connection with
the various financial arrangements
between the United Kingdom and the
United States were recognized few
weeks ago when an earldom of the
United Kingdom was conferred upon
him.

FANS LOSING FAITH.
White Sox Followers Fear Team w
Not Repeat This Season.

Chicago, June 4.-With the Ameri
can league pennant race close to twd
m onths old. Chicago critics and
Windy City fandom at large are bel
ginning to doubt the ability of ConaJ
iskeys world champions to defend
their title successfully. The feeling
grows out in this section that thd
race is to be somewhat of a free-for1
all, with the White sox no better
than two or three entries. They ard
hoping, Of course, that RoWland'S
men will repeat, but there is a touch
oil pessimism in the hope.
The White Sox are not as strong ID
son. That fact is generally admitted
since Joe Jackson left the club. Joes
tendency to hit the ball to the fences
strengthened the confidence as we'll as
the run-getting power Of the White|
SoX, just as it impaired the effective
ness of any pitcher who saw joe
sauntering to the plate in a pinch
with three bats on his shoulder.
Jackson is gone with that terrify-
ing. punch, and the players who are
filing his place in the outfield are
not the kind to inspire awe in any
pitcher, nor confidence in the White
Sox AS no extra strength has been
added to any department of the club
the only way to rate the Rowland
team is that it is weaker than it wass
a season back.

Ginley's crew and eVened up matters
very decisively for the defeat they
suffered at Worcester last week. Right
from the very start it was Hartford's
game, as they took a lead in the third

the only reason why they did not add
more tallies was because the locals
took a few chances too many on the
