As to both this suggestion and that of Chamberlain relative to a tempo- rary understarding, it was said in au- thorifative circles that the Washing- ner given at Dartmouth House last night by the English-Speaking Union | in honor of the visiting American edi | tors. | “I am confident that government is seeking every po means to arrive at eeme the said an sub.

Lord Birkenhead presided at dinuer and Maj. John ‘comed the visitors to England. The American journalists also were the guests at luncheon today of the Institute of Journalists. R. D. Blu- aenfeld, editor of the Daily said, in welcoming the Amei that the relationship between Gr Britain and the United States was en- tirely in the hands of the newspapers, and not in the hands of ambassadors and ministers. He_suggested that American and English journalists should intérchange positions every six months. Marshal Ballard of the New Orleans Jtem and Robert Latham of the Ashe- ville Citizen assured English journal- ists that ebullitions of anti-English feelings in the United States were in- {requent, and both agreed with Mr. Blumenfeld's idea that there should be an interchange of journalists between England and the United States. Mr. Ballard said, however, that he would favor such an exchange every six ‘weeks rather than every six months. LOYALTY IS KEYNOTE OF LODGE SESSION American Woodmen Hold Business Meeting in Vermont Ave- nue Church. the Toyalty to the order and the respon- Eibilities and opportunities of its offi- cers and members were emphasized at the business session this morning of the American Woodmen, colored fra- ternal organization, in the Vermont Avenue Baptist Church. A spirit of fraternalism was pointed out to be mecessary for continued success. At a special field workers’ con- ference yesterday afternoon at the Vermont Avenue Church extension problems were discussed. An attempt was made to formulate a more prac- tical program of work than now in use. A territorial survey of employ- 'ment conditions, wages and home- owners was urged. The juvenile department presented Jast night at the Dunbar High School Auditorfum_ “A Pageant of Wood- craft” in three acts. The first was “Woodmen of Yesterday” and was in ftribute to the late supreme comman- der, C. M. White. “The Woodmen of Today,” the second act, portrayed the supreme camp and subordinate camps ‘and their officials and the Uniform Rank department. The third act, “The ‘Woodmen of Tomorrow,” illustrated the “brush burners” and juvenile de- rtment. | The military and civic parade was held at noon today, to be followed to- night by a military promenade. The business sessions and the encamp- ment at Union League Park, will con- tinue through Saturday. J. E. WANDER, 49, DIES. Baker Is Survived by Widow and One Son. Joseph P.

Proposals Not Favored. The question of reaching an agree- ment vering limitation of all classes of auxiliary naval tonnage is looked upon us one thing and that of dealing with destroyers or submarines as sep- arate fications, independent of their relation to the cruiser question, is quite another. It seems improbable that the Washington Government will favor either a very short time tempo- rary agreement or separate treatment of the destroyer and submarine ques- tions. ux ITALO-FRENCH STAND FELT.

At the same time the paper says that the United States should con- der “the absurdity” of aspiring to ake the most dominating position in world navies. CRUISER OFFER REPORTED. LONDON, July 28 (#.—One inter- pretation of Foreign Secretary Cham- be: n’s naval statement in the House of Commons yesterday, made by the diplomatic correspondent of the West- minster Gazette, is that Great Britain willing to effect a com- promise agreement with the United tates as regards 10,000-ton cruisers, asting until 193 or at most until 1936, when the Washington treaty ex- pires. agreement, the correspondent would fix a ratio and a figure " | for the 10,000-ton type on a basis of Anglo-American parity and give the parties concerned freedom in estab- lishing the tonnage of lighter cruis- ers in consonance with their national fense requirements. “Such a temporary arrangement,” he adds, “would probably save the conference from failure, because it would obviate tying the three govern- ments_concerned to a permanent in- ternational agreement arising from the unsatisfactory Geneva conference. . It would, moreover, leave the door open for a more satisfactory arrangement after 1931.” 2 o Mr. Chamberlain said that “there need be no difficulty in arriving at a temporary arrangement about the im- mediate future of cruiser building.” e Marriage Licenses.

UNDER WAY Street Car and Motor Bus Problems Studied by En- gineer Mills. The future street car and motor bus transportation needs of Washing- ton are being studled this week for the Natlonal Capital Park and Plan- ning Commission by Earl 0. Mills, a transportation engineer from St. Louis. Mr. Mills is one of the group of consultants assisting the commis- sion in the preparation of a compre- hensive plan for the development of the Capital City, and he will make a detailed report to the commission in September. on the subject of transit facilities. On previous visists Mr. Mills looked into the transportation problems ex- pected to arise in the triangle between Pennsylvania avenue and the Mall when the Government's big building program in that area is completed. Studies Routing System. He is here this week to make a sur- vey of transit facilities of the city as a whole, with a view to recommending where changes might be deemed ad- visable as the city grows. According to Maj. Carey H. Brown, executive as. sistant to the Planning Commission, Mr. Mills will study the routing of the public transportation systems, the questfon of how existing trackage would fit in if a merger should be ac- complished at some future time, and similar problems. The study also will cover the use of the motor bus, which in recent years has been adopted as the means of extending service into newly developed outlying sections. It is probable Mr. Mills will give some thought to such special problems as exist, for example, on Fourteenth street between New York avenue and H street and New York avenue be- tween Fourteenth and Fifteenth streets, where four tracks exist. According to Maj. Brown, the pur- pose of these engineering studies is not so much to recommend immediate changes, but to have available data and recommendations that could be considered with the Public Utilities Commission in connection with the planning of the city of the future. Report in September. Even such transportation changes as may be found necessary to serve the public buildings in the triangle are not likely to reach the state of be- ing carried out until the five-year building program is virtually complete The study of the transportaton facil ities of ‘the entire city also is likely to deal wth future problems in a broad light. Whether the report will suggest changes that should be made immediately will not be known until it is completed in September. ‘Two lions at the London Zoo have become so friendly with vagrant rats that the rodents sit on the trough vhile the pair drink.
