GIBSON QUITS POST TO WRITE AND FISH Retired Diplomat Has Vast Store of Material as Result Of 30-Year Career WASHINGTON, July 3 (P)-If, in retirement, Hugh S.

Gibson carries out his intention to "do a lot of fishing and write some books," his friends expect a considerable depopulation of the finny tribes and a vivid enrichment for the literature of diplomacy. For they know him as a competent angler and an absorbing storyteller, a narrator who can draw material from 30 full years of seeing history made and helping make it in all the capitals of Europe, in times of peace, war, and delicate international negotiation. Gibson, who insisted upon retirement despite the of post as important as that ambassador to offer, Germany, is expected to be in Washington shortly, visiting old acquaintances. In Belgium in 1914 He spent some of the early years of his career in Latin America, dealing with "revolutions and wars and the rumors of wars." After this experience he welcomed the prospect of a "quiet post" as secretary of the embassy at Brussels, Belgium. But was in 1914, and a month later Belguim was overrun by the German army, which brought with it enough problems and disquietude to All a "journal" which Gibson published in 1917.

This volume contained an absorbing account of the German occupation, and particularly of his efforts to save Edith Cavell, the British nurse whom the Germans shot for helping Belgian and British wounded to escape into Holland. First Envoy to Poland Later in the war period, he served in London and then became the first American minister to Poland. Service in Switzerland and Brazil followed, and he spent intervals in the State Department here. More recently he had been stationed in Belgium again, this time as ambassador. Constantly, he was an adviser to such men as Henry L.

Stimson, the late Dwight Morrow, the late Ramsay MacDonald, Prime Minister of England, Andre Tardieu of France, and Dino Grandi of Italy. He is credited, with having done much to the failure of the 1930 arms reduction conference at London. In fact, from the end of the war to the present there was scarcely a major international development that not find him an active participant, or quietly giving requested advice.
