HOOVER CALLS
DINO GRANDI
into FARLEY
Italian Foreign Minister to
Confer With President at
d P. M. Today.
VISITS UNKNOWN'S TOMB
Bearded Diplomat Stretches
Arm Over Grave in
Fascist Salute.
BY JOSEPH II. BAIRD
United Press stan Correspondent

WASHINGTON, Nov. 17-Foreign
Minister Dino Grand of Italy told
the American press today that his
country considered disarmament as
the most important question before
the world. He added that Italy was
working for an agreement with
France on their naval dispute.
Asked for Italys view on revision
of war debts and reparations, the
youthful Fascist minister said he
only would call attention to the
statement of Premier Mussolini in
1922. Mussolini said then that war
debts and reparations we're inter-
dependent and must be scaled down.
Shortly before the interview,
President Hoover announced that
he would discuss world problems
with Grandi at a p. m. White
House conference. The conversation
was not on Grandi's official pro-
gram, but was arranged today.
Henry L. Stimson, secretary of state,
also Will be present.
Visits Unknown Tomb
This morning, the foreign minister
placed a wreath of roses on the
tomb of the Unknown Soldier.
While the army band played the
Italian national hymn, the bearded
diplomat in silence placed his
wreath, and then stood erect with
arm stretched forward and upward
in the Fascist salute.
Seven motorcycle police and three
headquarters detectives accompanied
him to the tomb maintaining the
extraordinary vigilance which has
marked his visit so far.
Visits Justice Hughes
Grandi later visited Chief Justice
Charles Evans Hughes at the Cap
itol, then strolled into the senate
chamber and the Presidents room.
Later he visited the rotunda and
inspected the frescoes executed by
the italian artist, Brumidi.
Smiling and urbane, he talked
with newspaper men in Stimson's
Office after he and Stimson had
chatted for half an hour and posed
for photographs.
The Italian statesman paid trib-
ute to Stimson's work for peace at
the London naval conference. He
said the world should not forget this
work and that Italy had not forgot
ten it.
Disarmament Is Important
The attitude of the Italian
government toward disarmament is
we'll known. 1t is easy to confirm
our point of view. We think dis
armament is the most important
question existing now in the rela-
tions between countries"
Asked about the results of his
recent conference with Chancellor
Heinrich Bruening In Berlin, Grand
said he believed Bruening was do
ing his best to promote co-opera-
ton between governments.
The scope of his conversations
here, Grandi said, smilingly turn
ing to Stimson for confederation,
will be wide.
THE sky is the limit" Stimson
acquiesced.

NEW YORK, Dec. 21.-Soon all
IN those bags and trunks which
logged so happily homeward from
colleges all over the country will
be strapped up and showed on their
reluctant way back after the Christ

Some of these things will be

will be the result of mother-and-

What with party frocks working
overtime on Christmas doings, a
new one will top the list. One less

in front-because of earlier-than-
usual Lent.

Second, be dependent. Show your
reliance on the superior strength

Third, be good humored and easy

Almost every man likes to find
something of the little girl in the
woman he loves. A def mixture
of child and woman is a combina-
ton which seldom fails to work.
These simple and well-worn tar
tirs work almost as we'll on one man
as another. High types require
enough mental equipment in a
woman to fit her for a stimulating
companionship, but. even so, you
will find that the woman has not
neglected to use some or all these
elemental methods of ensnaring
masculine affections.

Troops VIII
Aid St. Nick
With Gifts

indianapolis Girl Scouts have been
devoting much of their time during
the last few weeks to preparations
for the holiday season. Now they
are ready to fill stockings that
might otherwise be overlooked and
TO add a little cheer to Christmas
day for some family or person who
otherwise might be forgotten.
Fifty Christmas baskets filled with
food, toys and clothing will be dis
tributed through the Family We'll
fare, the churches where the Scout
troops meet, and to the Mayer
chapel.
One troop is supplying a family
with food sufficient for two months.
Another troop. instead of furnish=
ing a basket, will play Santa Claus
to 7-year-old twin girls and clothe
and support them during the winter.
Three troops will take care of
three privileged sister troops
by giving them a party and provid-
ing gifts.
Hospitals to BE Remembered
In their holiday activities. Girl
Scouts are touching many of the
welfare organizations devoted to
children. To the Riley hospital will
90 twenty scrapbooks, two subscrip-
tons to the American Girl for the
reading room. and a dozen dolls.
A fruit basket and a dozen dolls
will be given children at Sunnyside.
To the day nursery, fifty glasses OF
Jelly will be sent by one troop. Toys
repaired and reprinted by two troops
will be presented to the Wheeler

will receive seventy-hve glasses of
Jelly and $50 popcorn balls. At the
Robert w. Long hospital, seven
Christmas trees will be decorated by
a Girl Scout troop, and q cretonne
candy bag for each patient donated
by another troop.
Dolls are dear TO every girls
heart. SO in dressing and giving
beautiful dolls, the Girl Scouts have
had their biggest thrills. Five dozen
will go to the Family Welfare, one
dozen to the FIanner House, one
dozen to the Riley hospital, one
dozen to Sunnyside and sixteen
dolls'to various church projects.
Christmas Plays Scheduled
The Needlework Guild will receive
baby jackets crocheted by ten Girl
Scouts.
Only five troops are planning
Christmas parties Of their own,
since the biggest efforts and means
are being expended toward Christ
mas for others.
Christmas plays are being pre-
sented by Troops 46, % and the high
school troops. Troop Sd is to supply
the afternoon entertainment at the
Christian park community house
for all the neighborhood children.
Troop II will present its play twice,
once for the North Park Christian
church and again for the American
settlement house.
Girl Scout carolers will be heard
on Christmas eve in Irvington. A
custom followed since the first troop
in Indianapolis was established
there. Another group will appear
at the city hall singing old English
carols.
