result of an exchange of letters be-

President Hoover. in a letter to

Moreover, as it lies in the area

One-half grapefruit, coffee.
LUNCHEON
One egg, toast, greens,

DINNER
Broiled steak, green peas,

Although many of yesterdays
clinic visitors were dieters who had

Reprinted First Menus
The new dieters were instructed
to start on the current days menu,
follow the daily Times menus until

missing days. At the completion
of the eighteenth day, The Times will
reprint the menus for the entire IL

getting virtually no regular daily
exercise. These persons will be
mailed copies OF set OF gymnastlc
exercises that the medical staff
believes will be very helpful to

Diet Editor tomorrow will describe
them in detail.

RHINE VACATION
IS DISCUSSED

THE HAGUE, Aug. s n.N.S0.--
Germany appeared to be In sight OF
success in her 1O.year-old battle to
obtain military evacuation of the
RhineIand.
Foreign Minister BRAND of France,
and Foreign Minister Stresemann, of
Germany, conferred privately upon
the Rhineland issue. Afterwards 1t
was learned that NJ. BRAND sag
gested that evacuation should take
place three months after the Young
plan for PREPARATION payments is
effective.
The Rhineland problem and Great
Britain's attempt TO revise the
Young plan so as to obtain greater
share of Germany's reparation an.
nuities were two of the chief prob
lens confronting the Hague con-
ference. which was summoned to
solve the last of the international
problems left over by the great war.
Young Plan Intact
France, with the support of Bel
GUM, Italy and some OF the smaller
nations, is seeking to have the
Young plan kept intact and rati'
fled by the interested powers in It's
present form. NJ. BRAND has been
using all the diplomatic skill at his
command to isolate Britain and
force the British delegates to make
concessions regarding reparation
appointments.
Indications today were he would
be successful.
A spokesman for the British dele
CATION denied that the English hau
been left out in the cold in the
Franco German negotiations regard
ing the Rhineland. He said the
BRAND Stresemann conference was
! held at the suggestion of the Brit
ish, who agreed TO accept any agree,
ment reached.
British In Favor
The British Labor government Is
upon record as favoring early
evacuation of the Rhineland.
Two committees. one dealing
with financial problems and this
other with political issues. have
begun to function.
Foreign Secretary Arthur Hen
derson, of Britain. is chairman OF
