IN All likelihood the conference
will be held in Washington at Mac

Thus far In the worlds history

since. that time, eight years ago,
half q dozen conferences, large and
small, have been held. all OF them
abroad, and none OF them have been
successful because adjustment of
lAngIo.American differences had not
been made beforehand
This time, President Hoover and
the British premier apparently are
determined to have that adjustment
