has not changed the list as published

Hughes has already been designated to
head the commission. For his collea-
CUES the president is said to be consid-
ering today, as he was two weeks ago,
the following:
/ Elihu Root, former secretary of state.
Henry Cabot Lodge, chairman of the
foreign relations committee of the SEN

Philander c. Knox, former secretary
of state, and Republican member "f the

Oscar Underwood of Alabama, DEM
Ocratic senator and friend of the pres.
ident.
George w. Sutherland, former Re-
publican United States senator from
Utah and international lawyer
If more than five Americans are to
be named it is possible that the pres
ident may appoint woman on the
commission or some member Of the
house of representatives. That the
president will appoint Mr. Root is be-
lieyed to be certain by those who have
discussed the subject with him.
Senator Lodge, by virtue of his po-
sitiOn as chairman of the foreign re-
lations committee is obviously entitled
to head the representation from the
senate. ,
Senator Knox, the president believes
to be eminently qualified for member.
ship on the commission, not because
he is senator, but because of his
familiarity with diplomacy and inter
national relations.
Senator Underwood is being consid

ity political party. The president is
known TO admire Underwood and t.
have great confidence in his ability.
Former Senator Sutherland is re
garded by the president as eminently
qualified for the delegation. He wa.
at one time seriously considered fo
secretary of state.
Whether the president will appoint
