NEW MINISTER OF CHINA PROMINENT
Dr. Koo Recently Nained Envoy to Mexico, Cuba and Peru.
A GRADUATE OF GOLUMBIi
Ons of tho Flrat Studanta Sont to America by China Through Boxer Rebellion Indemnity—Has Host of Profssiional Friends, Also Good Knowledge of International Law.
Washlugtou.—Dr. VI Kyuin WeiliuK- ton Koo, who was rwently appointed as the Chluese minister to the United States, suixeediut,' Kai Fu Shah, is a graduate of Columbia university, where be reielved his doctor's degree. He was one of the lirst students sent to America Ijy the government of China throufjli the Bo.xer rebellion indemnity, remitted li> the United States, and ac¬ quitted himself with great credit. He Is well known in .New York and In¬ cludes among his friends many lead¬ ers in educational, professional and linanciul cir<los.
The new envoy attended St. Johu'.s college, Sliangliai. uud was admitted to (,'olunibia in lOfti, whero he took a prominent part in undergraduate life. He was editor in chief of the Colum¬ bia SpiMiutor. the university daily pu per. and was a member of the Colum¬ bia debating team which defeated Cor¬ nell in IJtO.t. The student board of

graduates included iilm as a member. He aiso took un active part in track athletics.
Dr. Koo was ouly recently named Chinese minister to Me.xico, Peru and Cuba und pa.-ised through Washhigtou on his way to Ix)ndou ^irior to taidng up his ofUcial position. He vvas pre¬ sented to Secretary of State Lansing at that tlmu and discussed the Mexi can situation with him.
A.s an undersecretary at the Chinese foreign oliico Dc. Koo was a member of the commission which condui-ted negotiations with the Japanese minis¬ ter in Peking lafjt spring. It Is said that he is a close friend of President Yuan Shlh Kai and is in sympathy with the latter's leaning toward a monarcidcal form of government for China.
The impression was gained here that Minister Koo's appointmeut came as a surprise to the present minister. It is said that Peking was dlssatisfled with his reports of the attitude of tlie American government and publlc opin¬ ion in the United States during the Chhio-.la[)anese negotiations. The le¬ gation re|)eutedly applied to the state department for aid and counsel at that time, lllll. the I'nited States took no action towurd restraining Japan iu her demands upon China.
In ItKil) I)r. Koo was made master of arts and lor three yeare thereafter studied under l>r. John Bassett Moore. The degree uf Ph. D. was conferred upou hini, and lie acquired a wide rep¬ utation for his knowledge of Interna¬ tional law.
While a student in Xew York city Dr. Koo was closely associated with work in Cliinese American circles. He was editor of the Chinese Students' Monthly and as president of the Chi nese Students' aiilauce did much to advance .the interests of Chinese stu¬ dents in America.
Dr. Koo loft America in April, li)l'_', to take up his duties as dlplomutii' secretary to President Yuan Shlh Kai. The Chinese society gave him a lunch¬ eon on the eve of his departure.
While on the Pacific slope, intrusted with a government mission, he re ceived word of Ills apiiolntment a^ minister to Mexico.
At the recent Bankers' club luncheon in New Tork Dr. Koo said, "The Chi nese iieople have a liking for Ameri¬ cans whloh Is as intense as It is Justi¬ fied, and when I say this I do not •peak oil behalf of only a portion of the people." I
