MEXICAN EMBASSY
 CLAIMS ATTENTION
Hoover Perplezed Over Choosing Next Occupant After Morrow

Washington, Aug. tP-In an ef- fort to fill the diplomatic post he considers most important in the western hemisphere, President Hoo- yer has turned his attentioi to the selection of a successor for Dwight w. Morrow, ambassa dor 10 Mexico.
 Ambassa dor Morrow has set Sep tember as the time he probab ply will relinquish his Mexico City post in preparation for the November sena- torial campaign in New Jersey in which he is the republican candi- date.
 It is generally expected in dIplo- matic circles here that one of Mir. Morrow's final acts in Mexico City will be to lay before the Mexican government the name of his sue cessor. to learn if the presidents se- lection is persona grata" 10 the southern republic.
 Those close to the president said today the chief executive has in mind two types of men which he feels might measure to the reputa- tion established by Mr. Morrow in the Mexican capital. One of these is the business man or banker interest ed in public service. The other is the career diplomat of the type of Hugh s. Gibson, ambassador to Belgium and close friend of the president.
 Hoover Concerned
 The proximity of Mexico to the United States with its consequent international problems, the increas- ing trade between the two countries and,the growing importance of Mex ico in Pan American affairs have caused Mr. Hoover to devote to this vacancy more than the usual atten- tion he gives diplomatic appoint nents.
 The presidents feeling that a man of special equipment must be select cd, has considerably narrowed the field, and it is understood MT. Hoo- yer would prefer someone with both the ability and InanCial capacity to carry out the work started by Mr. Morrow. The latter in addition to the regular embassy personnel main- tains for special duties q staff of his own including J. Reuben Clark, Jr., of Salt Lake City, former under-se retary of state, and George A. Rub- lee, of Washington, D. C. The former nder-secretary has been mentioned for the post, but some doubts have been expressed that he will be se- lected.
 Ambassador Gibson's name has never been mentioned directly in connection with the post except as the diplomatic type which the presi- dent might desire
 Friends Of the president says he doubtless will seek AIr. Morrow's ad- vice before definitely selecting his successor.
