vWith regard to the league of na

The impression which se.tiM to

VISCOUNT GREY
MAY NOT RETURN
Belief Grows That Amhassa
dor from England Will Be
Superceded
LONDON'. Dec. 17. The belief is
erowing in diplomatic circles that
Viscount Grey will not return t.-
Washington as British ambassador,
although there is no intimation of
this "officially. Speculation Is be
ginning as to who will be the cext
ambassador, and Jxird Ueadin-'s
name is mentioned frequently. It is
not known whether Lord lleadinz!
would abandon the Jiief justiceship!
for the ambassadorship, but it
well known that he is particulailv j
fond of America and of Americans,
arid them is some who believe that
he would like the post.
Viscount Grey, whose early return
to England has been announced, has
never formally presented his cre
dentials at Washington, and it I as
sumed, therefore, that he never
turned over Lord lteading's lctttrs
of recall.
The possible retirement of Sir
Robert Uorden'from the "'prem'oi
ship of Canada recalls that durintr
the pace conference it was reported
he imirht be the next ambassador to
the United States. This was when
the subject was discussed of wheth
er the Hritlsh dominions, notably
Canada, rhnuld have separate am'MV
sadors at Washington.
