We also record the loss of a friend to this

country in the death of Colonel George Harvey, who was the United States Ambassador here after the War. He was a severe critic of President Wilson, whose friend he had formerly been, and of the League of Nations. He had a great deal to do with the nomination of President Harding, who sent him to London where he had many friends and made many more during his short term, to whom he used to express with great frankness the views of American Republicans upon European politics. Outside his political and diplomatic life he was a journalist, publisher, and a gas and railway financier.
