Lady Chamberlain, Leader
In CMeden Set, Succumbs
Widow of Sir Austen
Ill Short While;
Friend of Duce
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
LONDON, Feb. 13.-Lady Cham
berlain, widow Of Sir Austen Cham
berlain, died here today after a
short illness.
Lady Chamberlain, whose hus-
band was Britain's Foreign Sec
retary and a Nobel Peace Prize win
ner in 1926, was one of the quick
Witted members of the so-called
"Cliveden set"
Sir Austen, half-brother of the
late Prime Minister Neville Cham
berlain, died in 1887. Lady Cham
berlain was credited with inspiring
Neville Chamberlain's 1888 visits to
Adolf Hitler, which preceded the
Munich agreement and the dismem-
berment of Czecho-Slovakia.
When the "Cliveden set" took its
name from Lady Nancy Astor's resi-
dence, Cliveden House, where Brit
ish officialdom mingled with finan-
ciers, newspaper owners and the
London diplomatic corps, there
were those who considered Lady
Chamberlain as more truly the lead
ing spirit of the famous tea fights
than was the hostess herself.
Lady Chamberlain town house

gathering place for Conservative
leaders. In the tenure as Prime
Minister of Neville Chamberlain

Roosevelt Summons
Knox 10 Confer ON
Ships for Britain
As Naval AuxiIiories
Viewed os Possible
Source Of More Aid
By JOHN C. HENRY.

President Roosevelt summoned
Secretary of Navy Knox to the White
House today for q conference ex-
pected to deal in large part with the
possibility of delivery of additional
American destroyers to Great Brit
ain.
An urgent recommendation that
from to 10 destroyers be delivered
monthly to the British was made
earlier this week by Wendell L. Will
kie before the Senate Foreign Re-
lations Committee.
Yesterday Secretary Knox told a
press conference questioner that the
Navy could spare no more destroyers
and that he personally was opposed
to any further depletions in our
own fleet strength.
This in turn led Mr.. Willkie to an
nounce in New York last night that
high authorities" of the Govern
ment had assured him on Tuesday
that such destroyer deliveries could
be made. Since Mr.. Willkie further
identified his authority as some one
he had seen after his committee
testimony, it was assumed that he
had been given this assurance by
Mr.. Roosevelt at their White House
conference that night.
Early Silent on Authority.

tice had been given to Americans in
some sections of the Far East to re-
turn to the United States.
This, Mr.. Hull said, was in con-
formity with the Government pol
icy of taking all precautions for the
safety of Americans in disturbed
areas of the world.
In other diplomatic quarters, it
was learned that reports OF a dis
turbing nature concerning possible
Japanese plans for moves In the
South Pacific had been received.
These conceded with an AuStral-

war has moved into new stage in
