Show United States Embassy in London, "Of all diplomatic posts, I have often of-ten thought the . pleasantest in most ways and the most exacting in some is that of American ambassador in London," writes Sydney Brooks in tha current issue of Harper's Weekly. "Whoever holds it gets Infinitely nearer to the realities of English life than the representative of any other country. He is treated from the first as a national guest whom it is a delight to honor rather than as an official emissary. Popular opinion separates him at once from his colleagues col-leagues of the diplomatic corps. He is the only one who reaches the mass of the people." |
