! Of FOR PARIS POST
Generals Name Added to List
Of Distinguished Pos
sibilities.

~ the Associated Press.
The possibility that Gen. John j.
Pershtng may become the next Arnbas-
sador to France has been injected into
the unofhcial speculation which always
thriyes In Washington when an APP
pointment Of such Importance is pend
ing.
His name has been added mysteri-
ously to the list Of distinguished public
men already mentioned for the post,
which includes such figures as Frank B.
Kellogg. until recently Secretary of
State; Dwight r. Davis, former Secre-
tary Of War, and Henry p. Fletcher.
Ambassador at Rome.
An Idol Of France.
The point emphasized in the discus
sion of Gen. Pershing is that, as Worth
War hero of both America and France,
he occupies position in the affections
OF the two peoples similar to that of the
late Ambassador Myron T. Herrick.
Furthermore, it is reasoned, If former
Vice President Dawes should accept the
Ambassadorship to Great Britain, selec-
ton OF another important World War
inquire to 60 to France would provide the
kind OF balance for the two appoint
ments which the administration is sup
posed to desire.
Gen. Pershing has frequently revisited
France since he was there as commander
OF Americas war forces and he was one
Of the speakers at the funeral services
in Paris for Mr.. Herrick, whose body Is
to be brought to America aboard the
French cruiser Tourville.
Honors Paid by France.
The honors paid by France to the late
Ambassador have brought q public ex-
preston OF appreciation from President
Hoover, and the Navy Department has
ordered two American light cruisers to
meet the funeral ship as it approaches
New York. The cruisers will be brought
up from Guantanamo Bay for the
service.
The President, meanwhile, Is expected
BY many to wait until after the funeral
services for Mr.. Herrick in this country
before making any announcement with
respect to appointment Of his successor.
