The Dutch Minister
Barnouw, A. T. | December 7, 1918 issue

add to cart   close window

There is a growing annoyance noticeable among the Netherlands' people on account of the protracted vacancy of the post of Dutch Minister in Washington. In responsible quarters the excuse is heard that the change of Government made the delay in the appointment unavoidable, as the late Cabinet, which resigned early in July, although its members remained in charge of their several departments for two months longer, did not feel entitled to nominate a successor to August Philips. The Foreign Minister is not exclusively and not even in the first place, a deputy from one Government to another but a deputy from one nation to another.
