The United States has raised the
rank of her diplomatic representa-
tive to Belgium from that of minis
ter TO ambassador. This may be
taken as recognition by the U. S. of
Belgium's ambition to become an in
dependent nation rather than a neut-
raj state under the guardianship of
other nations. We are accustomed
to give the rank of ambassador only
to nations of the first-class, and the
action is something in the nature of
a compliment well deserved because
of Belgium's stand in the war.
