(4 of 4)
The almost superhuman effort with which this heroic people has faced her economic and social problems deserves the respect and admiration of all the civilized world, and also its moral support. Being an American born, with all an American's love of "fair play," I cannot but challenge an article which would make them appear barbarian.

Herrick Praised
Sirs:
The mention of the name of Myron T. Herrick in letter [from Reginald Sutton of Boston] appearing under the heading "Pollution?" in your issue of March 10, and the inferences therein made constitute nothing short of a dastardly defilement of a man whose life, character, ability and patriotism were of the highest order.
The record of Myron T. Herrick needs no defense.
Would to God that our Embassies were filled with men of his type.
What species of shortsighted, flagwaving, hundred percenter has the audacity to assail this great diplomat whose passing has left a vacancy that will be long in the filling?
