HOOVER CONSIDERS JAPANESE
AMBASSADORSE1IP CANDIDATES
Fletcher Mentioned Promi-
nentIy as Appointee to
important Post.
Friend Who Accompanied
President on Good Will Trip
Is Esteemed.

There were indications at the White
House yesterday that President Hoover
is considering filling the important dip
lomatic post of Ambassador to Toxic.
Considerable thought and care is being
devoted by the Chief Executive to this
appointment because of its Importance
and delicacy which attaches to the
handling of affairs in the capital of the
Far Eastern Empire.
the recent death of Albert H. Wash
burn, Minister to Austria, who had been
selected for the Toxic position. william
r. Castle, jr., Assistant Secretary of
State, has been filling the post as spe-
cial Ambassador during the London
Naval Conference, but is now en- route
to the United States to resume his for
mer duties.
Close Friend Of President.
The name Of Henry p. Fletcher of
Green Castle, Pa, former Ambassador
to Italy, Chile, Belgium and Mexico
and one-time Undersecretary of State,
has again come to the fore as a candi-
date for the Toxic post. A close friend
of the President, Fletcher is generally
looked upon by both American and for
eign diplomatic circles as one of the
outstanding figures of the foreign serv-
ice of the United States.
Fletcher, because of his intimate
knowledge of South American affairs
was chosen by Mr.. Hoover when he was
PreSident-elect to accompany him on

are prominent as possible candidates.
These are Joseph. C.. Grew Of New
Hampshire, now Ambassador to Turkey,
and Hugh r. Wilson of Illinois, Min
lister to Switzerland.
Forbes and Chandler Mentioned.
Others who have been mentioned as
meeting the requirements for the post
involving the very necessary possess
sion of large private income to sup
plement the ambassadors salary of
$17,50O yearly, and certain knowledge
OF diplomatic usage-are w. Cameron
Forbes of Boston, former Governor
General of the Philippines, and Harry
Chandler, owner of the Los Angeles
Times, and close friend of the Presi-
dent.
William Phillips of Boston, who re-
signed as Minister of Canada last De-
cember, has also been mentioned, but
since Phillips left the service that he
might educate his children in the United
States this might preclude his taking
the post.
Two important questions now exist
to engage the attention of the next
Ambassador to Toxic. These are the
London naval agreement, which must
be ratified by the Japanese and the
problem of Japanese immigration in
the United States.

RELIEF OR SAVING
IN TREATY DENIED
EScalator Clause NuIIifies
Naval Limitation, Senator
Johnson Declares.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
Senator Johnson, Republican, Cali
fornia, one of the foremost opponents
of the London naval treaty, issued a
statement last night attacking it on the
double ground that it would not provide
relief from taxation and that the
"escalator" clause, in effect, would null
lily it.
There is neither financial saving nor
relief under the treaty if we act upon
It," he said.
Likewise, in reality, there is no linn
itation, for the treaty specifically pro-
vides, under the so-called escalator
clause. that any party to it, believing
its national security demands it, because
OF new construction by any other power,
may build additional war vessels"
II the United States builds I'D under
the treaty, he said, land this must be
done to make it at all effectual, it will
cost this Nation $1,071 900 ,00O."
He also contended that under It "the
American Navy must be constructed un-
der British specifications.

ABOARD BARK CITY OF NEW

our first sight of the American con-
tinent in 10 months.
Truly a Memorial day." exclaimed
our gruff but kindly skipper as he led
us in three earnest huzzahs for gallant
little Costa RIGA and Guatemala. It
really begins to look serious now, and
the loyal band on the Eleanor Boiling
are to be congratulated on their good
work, in spite of the fact that, because
OF the strong head currents and con-
Stantly recurring squalls, the supply
ship has been able to tow us at no
greater speed than six or seven knots
Meanwhile, we ourselves have been
working with a will; painting. scrub
blng. slowing cargo, and putting things
in "shipshape" generally against our
arrival in Balboa some time tomorrow
afternoon. There the floating frater-
nifty house." as the expedition flagship
has quantity been termed, will take on
the de luxe members and about ITO
tons of coal. The bunkers clean as a
whistle, have provided a delightfully."-
cool. though damptsh, theater for our
three times weekly movies. All that
will have to be given up.
1t is rumored that Navy tug will
take us into tow from the canal for a
few days. God speed the tug. If it
can only get us to the Gulf Stream we
can drift up the coast good way. 1t
is vital that our public should not be
disappointed by any further delay Two
years before the mast is almost
enough.

WOMAN FOUND IN RIVER
DROWNED, DOCTOR SAYS
Theory She Was Strangled Is Elk
ploded by Report of Coro-
ner's Autopsy.
~ the Associated press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, May 31.-A police
theory that woman whose body was
found floating Thursday in the Harlem
River had been strangled and tossed
into the water after death, was explod-
ed by a coroner's report yesterday which
said she had died of drowning.
DR.. Benjamin M. Vance, reporting on
an autopsy performed on the body, said
the woman apparently had been un-
conscious when thrown into the river,
and seven-ply copper wire around her
neck had been used to attach weight
to her body.
The body, which had been in the
water six or seven months, remains un-
identified. The woman was from 20 to
IS years old, and well dressed. Police
hope to establish her identity through
a dental plate.
