London. Dec. 15th. Ambassador
Harvey has been called home for con
sultation, it was stated at the Amer
ican embassy this afternoon.
He will sail on the Berengaria on
December 23rJ. but will not be ac
companied by Mrs. Harvey, who will
leave the preceding day for a visit
to Madeira.
The nature of the consultation for
which the ambassador was sum
moned was not known at the em
bassy, where it was said the mes
sage calling him to Washington
merely said it was "for a consulta
tion." It is presumed the discussions
with Secretary of State Hughes will
cover the whole range of European
affairs, including the allied debts,
reparations and kindred subjects.
