Harvard days. and no sooner had he
taken his degree Of A. B. than he
entered the School of Political Sci
ences in Paris and studied there for
two years. His first assignment was
as private secretary of Mr.. Thomas
j. OBrien, then ambassador to Japan.
He was third secretary of the Amer
lean embassy in Paris under Henry
White. and from this post recalled
to Washington in 1912 to take over
some important work in the bureau
of Latin American affairs. Since
then few chancelries in Europe and
the East and in the Southern Hemi-
sphere over which the Stars and
Stripes fly have not known the serv-
ices of Mr.. Gunther. In 1918 this
young diplomat married Miss Louisa
Bronson Hunnewell of Boston, who
has accompanied her husband to
Washington. The Gunthers were in
the midst of things in Rome and
were very popular, especially with
the hordes of visiting Americans
Mrs. Gunther has had a wide expert
ence in social matters and she Will
be a gracious aid to Mrs. Hughes in
the heavy burden of dispensing hos
pitality to a body which numbers
now more than 500 persons. An
afternoon reception at the home of
the Secretary of State calls forth
every available assistance, and the
pouring of tea and serving of Ices is
far from being the sinecure 1t was
formerly in cabinet homes.

SHENANDOAH WILL
FLY WITH FLEET.
DirigibIe Scheduled to Take
Part in Maneuvers Off
Hawaii Next Year.

With the dirigib1es Shenandoah
and Los Angeles now in commission
in the United States Navy, the only
definite plans made so far for their
future use. il was announced today,
was that the Shenandoah would go
with the feet to Hawaii to take part
in the maneuvers in that area next
year
Secretary Wilbur indicated that the
airship tender Patoka, which is
equipped with A mooring mast, would
accompany the Shenandoah to act
as movable base of operations for
her. \ mooring mast is to be erected
also at the Hawaiian naval station.
but the Secretary said use of the
Shenandoah in the fleet maneuyers
was contingent upon completion of
the mast.
No Definite Plans.
There are no definite plans for the
use of the Los Angeles on a trip to
Panama and Europe. The Secretary
said that nothing definite had
emerged from the discussion within
the Navy Department. The report of
the special board recommending
these two cruises to develop the
commercial possibilities Of such craft
is still in the hands of the officers of
the Los Angeles and their colleagues
at the I.akehurst naval air station.
Mr.. Wilbur indicated, however, that
ne was personally interested in the
matter and would take steps to look
over the report at an. early date.

HAVANA. November 27-Talk of a
general strike in support of the Ia
borers in the sugar cane mills who
are seeking union recognition was
added to last night by a manifesto
issued by the Typographical Union
calling on it's members to be ready
to strike, and saying there would be
a general meeting of workers in Ha-
vana December IA to discuss the sit
uation.
The manifesto referred to the re-
cent deportation of six Spaniards as
alleged strike agitators. 1t added
that the workers knew no difference
between natives and foreigners, and
drew attention to the harmony ex-
listing between Spaniards and Gu
BANS 1t said also that union men
should be ready to give a good OBJ
ject lesson to Yankee imperialism"
Government officials continued to
minimize the situation. They assert
ed that men are daily returning to
work in the 20 or more sugar mills
affected.
