The New York Times of Nov. 14th has
the following interesting paragraph in its
report of the International Conference,
as Admiral VIM. v. Pratt of this city
was concerned in Mr.. Hughes plan. 1t
was known that Admiral Pratt worked
constantly on his last visit home, but no
one knew of his purpose:
THE fact is that nobody outside of
President Harding, the members of the
American delegation, Secretary DENLY
and few others had any clear idea of
what was contained in Mr.. Hughes S
plan. The few others may comprise Ad-
miral Coontz, Chief of Naval Operations,
and Admiral William V. Pratt of the
navy, and perhaps Assistant Secretary
Roosevelt and some members of the Cab
met, That Mr.. Hughes's declared inten-
ton OF laying his cards on the table"
contemplated presenting his armament
REDUCTION proposals at an open session of
the conference, and the first session at
that, was kept a dead secret Some of
the British seemed to think they knew in
advance the general character of what
the American formula would be, but Mr..
Hughes's detailed program shows that
they were miles away from even good
guess as to what it would contain"
The Woman's Alliance of the Unitarian
Church met Nov. 18th. at the home of
Mrs. VIM. B. Swan. The session was de-
voted principally to business with short
papers on the origin and development of
the Alliance and of some prominent
people who were instrumental in its
growth and prosperity. Mr.. Hartwell L.
Woodcock in few well chosen words
presented to the ladies of the Alliance
from himself and the late Mrs. Woodcock,
the original church service. Its actua
age cannot be ascertained, but it is prob
ably as old as the church itself as it was
replaced in 1949 by the present silver SER
vice. The old service came into the
hands Oh Mr. Daniel Faunce and as Mr.
Woodcock was keenly appreciative of the
beauty of the pieces they were given to
him. The tankard has been used extens-
lively by him in his still life pictures. He
says of it that for grace, beauty of line
and exquisite simplicity it was the
choicest example he has ever seen. In
closing he said 81 wish to present to the
ladies of the Alliance in Mrs. Woodcock' s
memory, the original church service" !"
Mrs. Durham accepted in behalf of the
ladies of the Alliance. The first picture
Mr.. Woodcock had accepted at the Bos.
ton Art Gallery was one of still life-fruit
and the handsome old tanksrd-and wal
sold to an art admirer. The next meeting
will be with Mrs. Charles H. Walden
Dec. 1st. The paper, "The Renaissance, ,
will be given by Mr.. Harry A. Foster
principal of the High school.
