The New Italian Ambassador Whatever be the forces that have
led to Signor Dino Grandi's resignation of his post as Foreign Minister of Italy, it can be no ill wind for this country that brings him to London as Ambassador. In less than three years Signor Grandi has won himself a remarkable place in international councils by the sheer force of his per- sonality. By many years the youngest of the Foreign Ministers who have been in contact periodically at Geneva and elsewhere, he has impressed himself on his colleagues as no other representative of Italy since the War has come near doing. At Geneva Italy assumed a new place as soon as Signor Grandi took office, for he made it his practice from the first to attend the Council and Assembly meetings himself. He has a warm admira- tion for London, and London will soon develop a high regard for a diplomatist whose appointment must be counted as altogether happy.
