GROUP HERE TO AID
NAVY CONF ERENCE:
Experts Act as Liaison Be-
tween Hoover and London
Delegates.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
While Secretary Stimson and mem
beers Of his delegation TO the Naval Con-
ference are busy in London, a smaller
group OF diplomatic and naval experts
Will be doing equally important work
here.
In marked contrast with the luxury
surrounding their London colleagues,
this group is quartered In two small,
bare rooms in the State Department,
Their principal duties include the
liaison between President Hoover and
his Secretary of State, as well as the
chief delegates 10 the London Confer
epce. Assisting them are q similar
number of experts of the Navy Depart
ment, with whom the President conters.
In the absence of Secretary Adams
of the Navy, Ernest Lee Jahncke, AS
sistant Secretary, is acting chief.
Joseph 2. Cotton, Undersecretary OF
State Is acting for Secretary StimSon
ard is the Presidents chief adviser.
Cotton actively directed the negotiations
between Ambassador Dawes and Prime
Minister Macdonald which resulted in
a basis Of agreement between the two
countries that made possible the con-
ference.
Diplomatic officers contributing TO the
work OF the at-home delegation are
Prentiss B. Gilbert Of Rochester. as
sistant chief of the division bf Western
European affairs: Pierre de L. Boal Of
Boalsburg Pa; Rollins r. Winslow Of
Grand Rapids. Mich, and Robert Nc
Gregor Scotch Of Detroit
Throughout the parley the President
and his group here will be in constant
communication with the London dele
cation with questions on major policy
decided by the President.

navies to a reduced strength which, in
1886. might be used as basis for a
general future limitation.
At London, therefore, the-powers will
be asked just how near they can come
to an absolute suspension OF naval
building in the six years Just ahead.
No one expects complete six-year
holiday. Some countries. including the
United States, are weak. in certain
classes OF ships and win insist on
making requirements.
But "a six-year holiday Is the mark
at which to shoot. It seems clear, at
this stage that a general curtaiiment
of building until 1896, rather than es-
Enlistment of definite ratios like the
5-5-3 ratio will be presented with
great earnestness as the real goal of
the conference.
In the case of battleships. the United
States. Great Britain and Japan all
would have to begin building In 1891 to
maintain the ratio laid down in the
Washington treaty.
If present building plans continue
unmodiHed these three leading sea
powers will have laid down, before the
end OF 1885, the keelS OF 30 less than
% new battleships. There are strong
indications that they viii agree at
London to cancel battleship construc-
ton entirely until 1885.
Cruiser Outlook Not Bright.
The outlook as to cruisers, destroy
ers and submarines is not quite so
bright. No treaty now limits the num-
Der of these ships, and all of the great
powers are building constantly as they
prepare to meet IN London. OF all the
types of warsbips, It is apparent that
cruisers and submarines will be the
most difficult to restrict. Yet II ever
so little can be done at London TO
curtail the crop of new men of war
until 1886, and some standards sci up
thereby TO end competition and uncer-
tainty. the delegates probably will 60
home happy. ~
Then. in 1886 statesmen will. at least
have definite quantities with which to
deal when they try to Ak the ratios for
the future. More than that, II the
dream of holiday comes true. the ma
tions will meet in 1896 already accuS-
toned to smaller nevies. and the years
Of economy may make 1t easier to
lower the limit for all Of the years to

ton OF hope, but full realization that
success would be far from easy, to await
the hour for meeting in front Of King
George on Tuesday in the greatest
naval conference yet known.
This eminently is the consensus
among the members of the American
delegation. and it is echoed by the
chiefs Of the British, French, japanese
and Italian representatives
Born OF the Hooyer-M Macdonald con-
Versations last Autumn. the conference
was first designed for the double pur-
pose Of ending useless expenditure of
the tax payers money on fleets and of
furthering the ideal of enduring peace
and security among the peoples.
Msedonald's Purpose.
AS Secretary Of State Stimson and his
colleagues Of the American delegation
neared the British shores during the
week, Prime Minister Macdonald re-
stated its purpose as the maximum
curity."
This basic proposal by Britains labor
prime minister and President Hoover's
expression Of high hopes for results
at London are the two rocks upon
which the structure Of an international
treaty eliminating naval building COM
petition will be built. But around the
base Of these rocks swirl treacherous
currents Of difhcult and complex in
ternstional problems.

real as they have been throughout the

following manner:
l. Sit down on the floor, keep
ing your spine straight and erect.
Cross your legs, tailor fashion, and
grab hold of your left foot with
your right hand and your right
foot with your left hand.
2. Before beginning the roll ex-
ercise, try to flatten your knees
against the floor, when crossed,
which is a tsst of the flexibility Of
your hip joints.
3. Holding your feet firmly in
your hands, with your knees cross
ed, bend forward and then rock
backward, never going SO far that
you fall over backward. Rock
back and forward several times,
never tipping over sideways, either.
4. Then try rotary motion, rock
ing to the right side, then back
ward, then to the left side and
then forward, rocking in a circle.
Do not do this exercise until you
get cramped. Until you are used
to it, a few times is enough. But
a few minutes of this rocking does

the body control that develops poise
and grace.
