UNUSUAL ATTACK ON
HARVEY

The rather unusual attack made upon
Ambassador Harvey in the senate will
servo to focus public attention upon the
career Of our latest representative to the
court OF St. James. Never before, it -
said, has such a bitter discussion taken
place over an ambassador after he was
actually appointed and confirmed. II
was due to the fact that confirmation
was lot considered in Eopen session. and
opponents Of Mr.. Harvey wished to get
their views before the people.
It IS quite true that Mr.. Harvey has
had a varied political career and that he
has changed his mind on occasion both
as to men and issues. This trait. how
sver, Is not necessarily rcprchensible.
Rather, It indicates high ideals. When
a man expects certain things from an
other man or a policy. and is disap-
pointed ne must. if he be intellectually
honest change his mind. Consistency
and loyalty are splendid qualities. but
is It not true that X man should first OF
all be consistent and loyal to his own
convictions?
