CHOICE OF WOMEN
AS ENJOYS LAUDED
Diplomatic Audience at A. U,
Hears Further Appointments
"Inevita BILE"
"IneVltable.'

Praising the reported selection of
Mrs. J. Borden Hartman as United
States Minister to Norway, DR.. Ellery
law at American University, yesterday
predicted that women Inevitably" will
be appointed in larger numbers to such
important posts.
DR.. Stowell was asked by member
of his diplomatic audience at lecture
at American University, What do you
think of women as diplomats?"
II think women are born diplomats"
he replied. There have been women
sent on important missions. I expect
to see further developments in the
appointment of women. 1t is newt
able.
"If you put distinguished women in
the diplomatic service" he declared
they will give good account of them
selves, and will be of general advantage
to the United States
For the present, however, Dr. StoWell
believes it would be better to place
American women as Ministers by ap-
pointnent instead of in the regular
foreign service. If they 60 unmarried
into the regular career foreign service,
he warned, they might get married, in
which case they would have to either
separate from their husbands, carry
them around on their various assign
ments, or else leave the service, with
the Government thus losing the ad-
vantage of the woman's training.
Discussing the State Department. its
functions and operation, DR.. StoWell
declared "the worst defect in the
department is the lack of a career
service in the home work of the
department.
I'VE have as good a foreign service
now as is to be found anywhere" he
said.
The next speaker in the series of
lectures for the diplomatic corps, at
American University, on Political
Institutions of the United States" will
be Dr. Henry B. Hazard, assistant to
the Commissioner of immigration, who
will deliver an address next Tuesday
afternoon on Immigration and Natur-
Alization."

He placed before the Rotarians
the advisability of shipping the
blarney stone to New York for ex-

claring that it would be unrivalled

exhibitions an outstanding success
and would produce a revenue of
many millions of dollars if a

Griffin declared that the arrival
Of the stone would be given a
reception excelling that of Lind

He suggested that the stone be

ed out that the large sum realized
from its exhibition could be used
in building up Of an Irish mer-
