U. S. DELEGATES
DISCUSS BRITISH
HOLIDAY Stand
BattIeship Reduction Chief
Topic of Conversation
Among Experts.
BY RAYMOND CLAPPER
United Press stan Correspondent

PLYMOUTH, England, Jan. IT.
Great Britain's proposal for battle
ship reduction. as outlined by Pre-
mier j. Ramsay Macdonald. was
the chief topic Of conversation
among American naval conference
delegates as they stepped ashore
today.
Recovering from the buffeting Of
an eighty-mile gale during the last
days run of the S. S. George Wash
ington, the ENJOYS found time for
detailed discussion of the British
proposals.
Two viewpoints were expressed
first that the premier may have
sought to gain an initial advantage
by his surprise" statement; second,
that the British authorities set forth
their proposals knowing there was
little likelihood of acceptance.
The fact that Macdonald suggest
I'd a reduction of 10000 tons in the
size OF battleships- $4,000 tons
% $4,000 tons-is taken to indicate
hat he had little hope of finding
his suggestion for total abolition
taken seriously.
A majority of the naval experts,
particularly those familiar with con-
struction, believe it would be wholly
inadvisable to reduce the size of
battleships 10000 tons. They say
that this difference in tonnage goes
almost entirely into underwater and
deck armor.
The delegation held its final con-
ference on technical matters Thurs
day and then devoted the remain
der of their time to packing.

ELABBY flesh is no asset to any
l. woman. 1t is often the result
of the wrong method of reducing.
I am a firm believer in such reduc-
ing methods as will tone up the
muscles and take off the flesh while
doing it.
One of the first things in f1atten-
ing out the abdomen is to realize
that the way you carry your breast
bone and your shoulders has much
to do with the looks of your figure.
When your breaStbone is well up
and your shoulders back. the mus
Cles of your abdomen naturally are
drawn taut. That, then is the way
to hold yourself. If you do not do
this naturally, exercise will make
you conscious of how much better
you feel that way and you gradually
will learn how to hold yourself
without any effort.
Such an exercise can be done in
two ways If you have some one
to help you, do it in the following
way:
Stand with your feet together,
hands behind you, gripping your
aids hands. Fall forward, with
your shoulders moving your feet, fall
again. Repeat ten times.
If you have no one to help you,
stand in a corner, a little away
from the wall, and fall forward,
catching yourself against the wall,
straighten, without moving your
feet, fall again. You must stand
erect as you do this. You will find

SOCIAL VICTORY
EMPTY TRIUMPH
FOR MRS. CANN
Rivals Not Present to See
Her Enter on Arm of
President.
By United Press

By L nttCU HTe6s
WASHINGTON, Jan. 17.-Mrs.
Dolly Curtis Gam attained the
highest social honor Washington
can offer at the Presidents dinner
honoring her brother, Vice-President
Curtis, Thursday night, but none of
her social rivals was present to wit
ness the triumph. The Vice-Presi-
dent was the only government OIL
cial among thirty-four guests.
AS a result none Of those who
have contested Mrs. Cams claim,
rs sister and official hostess Of the
President, to the honorS Of the
second lady of the land. saw her
enter the dining room on the aim
of President Hoover and take he1
seat at his right at the table.
Mrs. Alice Longworth Roosevelt
said never to have acknowledged
Mrs Cams primacy, was not
among the evenings guests.
Senators sometimes have attended
yice-presidential dinners in the past
White House attaches said, but the
President, they indicated, decided
to bring together some new groups
in Curtis honor, as it is customary
for him to be invited to the homes
Of the senator's.
Diplomats, as far as could be
learned, never have been invited to
dinners honoring the Vice-President
Thus the absence of both officials
and diplomats relieved the White
House of the embarrassment of a
clear-cut decision regarding Mrs
Cams official rank.

1890 Inspires
A Silhouette

If you want dignity, but
not quite so much as you
must assume in a classic
gown, you will like the 1890
silhouette. It was inspired
by dresses with hustle backs
and a flaring skirt below.
The modern version is not
so extreme. 1t has merely
a peplum or ruffle taking
'the place of the hustle, and
the skirt hangs rather
straight but full below.
Bodices may be bloused and
of course the waistline is
always normal or high. Soft
fabrics are used for these
gowns also. They are be-
coming to practically any
figure, and are good in any
fashionable color.
The Washington times., 1930-09-17
The Short
Wrap Is Smart

The length of your wrap
will probably be its most
distinguishing factor, and
there are many good lengths,
according to the gown the
wrap is designed for. There s
the little hip-length evening
jacket that goes so well over
a skirt with much fullness or
with unusual lines or skirt
drapery. It's d favorite with
young girls especially, though
there's no reason why older
women shouldn't wear it.
Many Of the wraps that are
made Of the same fabric as
the dress are this length.

Evening Jewelry
Sparkles

In the evening women still
prefer jewelry that is bril-
liant, sparkling and elaho-
rate. This vogue is part of
the romantic trend that has
dominated the evening mode
for two or three seasons. The
best jewelry is copied from
court pieces. Precious stones
are preferable If you have
them, and if you cannot af-
ford them the best limitations
you can get are smart. Most
jewelry Of this type is called
Rue de la Paix" for the
street in Paris where most of
it is sold. It is of rubies, dia-
monds, emeralds and other
precious stones in elaborate
and brilliant settings such as
bouquets of flowers, baskets,
or conventional designs. Of
course, you can get very good
looking synthetic stones in
the same types. They are
very effective under brilliant
lights and often are such
good limitations that it takes
an expert to tell them from
the real. Some of the
daintier designs in this jew
elry are called, Galliera, from
an exposition in Paris which
popularized it greatly. Gal
liera jewelry is always in
colors, whereas the court
type of jewelry is of dia-
monds or rhinestones only.

satins and metals will be
worn a good deal in wraps
that are made to match
gowns. The newer metals
are in softly blended Persian
designs, or have a metal
thread outlining the pattern
rather than running through
the whole fabric. Black will
be first because it goes with
more dresses. Pastels are
lovely, and must either har-
monize or match it. A few
deep jewel tones will be
worn when they harmonic
with the gown. White will
have an exclusive appeal,
and of course the white fur
wrap is a classic.
In the evening the very
sheerest chiffon hose are
smartest. Their colors should
harmonic very closely with
your gown. Nude shades or
pale beiges such as cham
pagne go best with greens
and blues, as stockings with
too much pink are liable to
look pink. Be sure to try
them over your skin when
you buy them, as they often
change color when you get
them on. A few very. smart
women will wear gunmetal
hose with black gowns or
pale pastels to match frocks,
but this is such a new fashion
that it is dangerous for the
average person.

other colorsg besides yellow.
1t is especially tflattering
when it has a pinkish cast.
Black will rival white in
popularity, with some people
it will even be more popular.
Black gowns are usually re-
'lieved by a tiny touch of
color or by the use Of rhine
stones or brilliants of some
description. Then all pastels
are good, especially blues,
pinks and greens. There win
be a few bright and dark
colors worn. They are very

This will be a season when
formal clothes will be worn
more than they have been
since the war. The new
evening gowns are so lovely
that everyone enjoys appear
ing in them. People are en-
tertaining to a greater ex-
tent and there are more
things to do which always
increases the importance OF
evening clothes. The feel
ing of the mode is elegance,
poised and dlgnified. Any
thing that makes a dress
look flapperish is out Of
taste. Women are feminine
this year at all times, but
more than ever in the even
ing. Do not think, however,
that this femininity means
elaboration, for formal gowns
are very often severely
simple, depending on the
softness and grace 9, their
lines for their becomingness.
They are very easy to wear
as all of the new dresses are.
OF course the ensemble
theme is paramount, and
gowns, wraps, shoes and
jewelry are always chosen
SO that they. go well to-
gether.
