Bertie are on the eve of retiring from the embassiw at Washington and ra.rie. t.id in reporting the rumor th^t Sir George Buchanan is about to resign from the Pptrograd post, the Daily Chronicle pleads the "urgent need of bringing fresh blood into eervice which has long been divorced from the actualities of modern life." The paper asks -whether the government had the courage to make a new departure in filling these important posts.

It does not criticise any of the ambassadors and especially commends Sir fieorsre Buchanan's work, but speaking broadly, the prestige of the British ambassadorial service stands none too high today." It remarks that Viscount Bryce was the successful ambassador in the past decade, and hopes that Premier /Lloyd George will follow the example then given bv appointing new fnen. f?he D^ilY,..Cliropicle continues: "The time has gone wfien British interest* abroad Can be entrusted wixely to men who*? principal qualifications are aristocratic birth or wealth, and who spend their lives in an atmosphere utterly remote from the realities of the modern world and look with disdoinful eye On commerce."

Sir Cecil Sprinjc-Rice became Brit ish ambassador to the United States on April 19, 1918, in succession to James Bryce, now Viscount Bryce. Lord Bertie, of Thame, has been British ambassador to France since .Tan 1, 1905. .Sir George Buchanan waa born in lg&4, and was promoted ambassador to Russia Nov. 23J lftlO.

Employers throughout the country- have become interested in it and are begining to realize that it is civic economy to make old men selfsupporting."
