unprejudiced observer must
admit that the situation 1s be-
coming more and more painful.. It
is not only that Latin-American
.diplomats are suspicious and
afraid oí Kellogg, but there seems
little sympathy or any more than
¿lie barest surface lqjalty to him

One attends a private dinner
and hears a high official of the de-
partment flay KeUogg mercilessly.
One of the most amazing side-
lights of all was shed when a na-
tionally known correspondent
wrote recently that Kellogg's im-
mediate subordinates, regarding
him as a politician, told him no
more than they were absolutely
obliged to about the affairs of
state.
Predictions have b'-en htaid re-
