Dr. Wilhelm Cuno, ex-Chancellor of Germany and Vice-President of the Board of Trustees of the Hamburg-American Line, arrived in the U. S. on board the Reliance.

Said Cuno: " I am visiting the U. S. for the fourth time as a private citizen and shipping man. The sole purpose of my trip is to renew personal and business relations with my American friends.

" Whatever may happen I am going to spend all my energy to renew and develop the business relations between Central Europe and other countries, particularly the U. S., continuing the work I started three years ago."

He denied that he was a candidate for the German Ambassadorship to the U. S.
