accuracy in exchange Of information
and views; and that the pro-
cedure thus suggested will contribute
toward the serving Of the United
States and Of all other countries con-
cerned."
Even before the Roosevelt administra-
ton took office it approved a note to
the League expressing general accord
with the action of that agency in con-
demning Japans military policy in
Manchuria.
AS result Of the vote Of condemna-
ton, Japan withdrew from the Leagues
Assembly and since then has pushed
its military operations southwark to the
Great Wall around China proper only
about SO miles from the old Chinese
capital Of Peiping.
Similar Step Last Year.
In naming a representative to sit
with members Of the League "as a prac-
tical measure toward facilitating ef-
fective cooperation" President Roose-
welt and Secretary Hull went farther
in the matter Of cooperation than
their predecessors except on one oc-
casion.
Early in the Manchurian controversy
more than q year ago-the United
States named representative to
participate in the League Councils dis
cussions SO far as they embraced the
Kellogg BRAND anti-war treaty to which
this Nation is signatory.
The American note given out here
today and handed to Sir Eric Drum
mond, secretary general of the League
of Nations, at Geneva yesterday by
Wilson, said the American Govern
ment Is prepared to cooperate with
the Advisory Committee in such manner
as may be found appropriate and feas-
ible.
"As it Is necessary that the American
Government exercise independence Of
judgment with regard to proposals
which may be made and /or action
which the Advisory Committee may
recommend, 1t would seem that appoint
ment by 1t OF representative to func-
t1On as member of the committee
would not be feasible.
Message Signed by Hull.
However, believing that participa-
tion by a representative of this Gov
ernment in the deliberations of the
committee would be helpful I am inc
structing the American Minister to
Switzerland, Mr.. Hugh R. Wilson, to be
prepared SO to participate, but without
right to vote, if such participation is
desired"
The message was signed by Secretary
Hull.
The United States will be the only
non-member working with the COM
mittee.
Il comprises Belgium, Canada, Co.
lombia, Czechoslovakia, France, Ger
many, Great Britain, Guatemala, Hun
gary. Irish Free State. Italy. Mexico,
Norway, Panama, Poland, Portugal,
lands and Turkey.
Wilson. an experienced career diplo-
mat, is 48, native of Evanston, ILL.,, a
Yale man, and has been Minister to
Switzerland for six years.
Three Ambassadors Named.
This momentous declaration of policy
marked a day in which foreign affairs
bulked large.
New Ambass adors were named for
three highly important posts. and the
administration decided to send Norman
H. Davis, diplomatic trouble-shooter ex-
traordinary, abroad without delay in the
hope of turning the world toward peace
through disarmament at q time when
military activity is seething on three
continents
Named as Ambassador to Great Bri-
tain was Judge Robert w. Bingham,
Louisville lawyer and publisher. Jesse
1sidor Straus, New York department
store head, was appointed Ambassador
to France, and Josephus Daniels. war
time Secretary of the Navy was definite
ly chosen for the Mexico City embassy.
Senate confirmation of all three was ex-
pected shortly.
