SHIRT-SLEEVE DIPLOMACY
WINS HIGH PRAISE IN LONDON
Morning Post, Expressing Appreciation of Ambassador Davis, Lauds
American Fashion of Speaking Plainly Suggests Monu
ment to Gerard for Services to Britain
Special Cable to Evening Public Ledger
CopyriaM, tote, bv the A'. V. Time J Co,
London, Jan. 14. Tho Morning Tost,
In nn edltoriat appreciation of Am
bassador Davis, after remarking that
ho possesses the gift of graceful and
scholarly eloquence, which has dis
tinguished his predecessors, says:
"Here, as elsewhere, tho representa
tive of tho United States occupies what
Is a unique position In diplomacy. He
Is not clothed In ambassadorial at
tire, nor does ho wear any order or
decoration. His establishment Is of
the plainest, and ho Is wholly devoid
of ceremony or ostentation.
"Thus puritanically environed, the
American ambassador moves Bcrcncly
among kings nnd emperors, stars and
ribbons and gold lace and medieval
rageantry of courts. Yet there Is none,
perhaps, whoso counsel la more eagerly
sought or whose word commands more
uttention.
Monument for Gerard
"We In this country at least shall
never forget what our countrymen In
Germany owed to the courage and hu
manity of Mr. Gerard, to whose achieve
ment we hopo to seo a fitting monument
erected. Here at home, during the same
period nnd during tho war, the late
Walter Hlnes Page, whose loss, we all
deplore, fulfilled his duties during a sin
gularly difficult period with utmost dls-1
crctlon and cordiality.
"It falls to Mr. Davis to take up his .
omce nt that most critical period when
tho settlement of peace presents -ill
sorts of problems In whose solution
thiro Is ahvavs tho pesslbll ty of d.ffo
ence of opinion But " ire certain
that the American ambassador will give
wise nnd slneere advice his own tui
tion ond to this country alike And h-ic
we would say that the British public,
perhaps, falls to appreciate the trui
value of the great American virtue of
plain, downright common snse.
' The American temperament again Is
not disfigured by that weal: sentimen
tality which believes only what It want?
to bellevo and which always discovers
sympathy with the burglar and never
with the policeman. The American mlnj
I. knit, ...ift nnd Inslcal. and thrf An
lean Intellect nppilod to Ocrmari mttftl
vers provides what their v;nici aiar
trntn describes as tho acid test of si
cerlty.
"When Mr. Davis savs. as he said.
Friday, that "we mean to strive for Jul
ileo. .vnet. comnleta and even-handed
all men. whether friend or foe, a Justll
.tt-.. itnd not shrink from elemandhH
that tho spoiler sllall return all that ll
