Washington, June 24. President

Wilson offered Robert Lansing tne

post of permanent secretary of state at n rnnfp.rence held at the White

House.

President Wilson authorized a state

ment relating to the appointment of

Mr. Lansing. It follows:

"Before leaving for a brief rest in

New Hampshire the president an

nounced that he had offered the post

of secretary, of state to Mr. Robert

Lansing, the present counselor of de

partment of state, and that Mr. Lansing had accepted the appointment." The news of Mr. Lansing's appointment spread rapidly. Secretaries Garrison and Daniels went at once to his office. Secretary Tumulty telephoned congratulations from the White House. Mr. Lansing, who is a son-in-law of former Secretary of 'State John W. Foster, became counselor of the state department on the retirement of John Bassett Moore, and has been openly regarded as President Wilson's mainstay on questions of international law. Mr. Lansing's home is in Watertown, N. Y., and he is just past fifty years old. Since 1889 he has practiced law and began his first diplomatic

work' for the United States in 1892, when he became counsel for the United States in the Bering sea arbitration. Soon afterward he became counsel for the United States Bering sea claims commission and following that was solicitor for the Alaskan boundary tribunal. In 1909 he became counsel in the North Atlantic coast fisheries at The .Hague. His last work before becoming

counsel for the state department was as agent for the United States in the
