Pending Sanction of Senate

For the second time in his career in the diplomatic service, Mr. William Phillips '00, Regent of the University and Secretary to the Corporation, has been nominated to be third assistant secretary of state. President Wilson has sent the nomination to the senate whose sanction of the appointment is necessary before Mr. Phillips can enter on the duties of the post.

The office of Regent, which since 1910 had been united with that of Dean of the College, was re-established last year and Mr. Phillips, then on leave of absence from the State Department was appointed to the position.
