Many consumers (of anthUacite). dis

WASHINGTON, May 21.-One of
these awkward situations in which
neither President Harding nor Secretary
of State Hughes can say anything with
out seeming to diSapprove the appoint
ment of one of their own ambassadors
has arisen For the speech of Ambassa-
dor Harvey i'm London wasn't submitted
to the American government before it
was made, and the chances that it would
have been edited and certain phrases
toned down if it had been cabled here for
approval. As it * the administration is
obliged publicly to stand by the speech
and to give the impression that Ambas-
sador Harvey hasn't said anything indis-
Greet.
Nevertheless, in his sweeping denunci-
alton of the league of nations and his
sarcastic references to President Wilson's
war utteranceS. Ambassador Harvey has
admittedly gone farther than has either
Mr.. Harding and Mr.. Hughes in stating
American foreign policy. President
Harding in his speech to congress said
America never would enter the present
ItdSue. lie never closed the door against
modification of the provisions of the
league so as to square with American de
sires. The Europeans have hoped that
a commission might be appointed TO con-
suit with America and work out pro
gram of changes satisfactory to the
United States, and thus bring America
into the council of nations. But Ambas-
sador Harvey has dashed aside such
hopes with this statement: There still
seems to linger in the minds of many here
the impression that in some way or other
by hook or by crook, unwittingly surely
unwiiingiy, America may yet be beguiled
into the league. of nations. Ii follows
then that the present government of the
United States could not, without betray-
al of its creators and masters and will
