- In Social and Official Life Secretary Kellogg, Soon to Retire, May Point to Important World Peace Achievements During His Administration. BY MARGARET B. DOWNING. | Mr. Frank B. Kellogg, soon to retire 8s Secretary of State, among the major Ariumphs of his direction of foreign af- fairs has had the happi of seeing the Ambassadors from Chile and from Peru meet _each other in a cordial way and stretch their feet in amity under the Secretary’s mahogany. Washing- ton for the past 37 years had the social indicap of always attending to it that hileans and Peruvians were kept apart, otherwise it was a source of embarrassment. Santiago de Chile and Lima weleomed an Ambassador frofn the former enemy domain on the same day and their induction into the dip- lomatic ranks of both capitals was at= brilliant ceremonial and thereafter peace was established all lover the world where their envoys were assigned. Another reconciliation indi- rectly influenced by the Secretary is that now happily affected by Costa Rica and Panama and that through the intervention of the President of Chile. Panama was discontented with the late Chief Justice White's decision in the boundary controversy between the two countries and was not cordial for some time toward the United States. In consequence Chile acted as direct in- termediary and now the envoys to Costa ica and to Panama, both genial and 0 doubt irked by their country’s atti- fude, can meet just as cordially as the Chileans and Peruvians. That threaten- ed rupture between Bolivia and Para- ay ended before it uld af- ect the personal conduct of its Wash- n representatives. It may be added that the Secretary’s initiation of anti-war movement as embodied in the treaty bearing his name and submitted for indorsement by world powers is rated as his great- est achlevement toward the restoration of international amity. 3 * k¥ % sioners s g0 dry reply to ; ngarl March 4, ;1: grimags whittle, appears %&M by recent speculators on the | N.

Cambon left the Capital fin 1903 and was not then in the heyday coeeded by M. post for 22 ars, After a few brief assignments on jal missions, M. Cambon became Ambassador of the French Republic at Berlin. He was at that capital when the World War broke, and his services to his country and to the world in gen- feral have become of that tragic history. For his and dispatches he was invited into the Academy of the Immortals, an honor yarely bestowed except for some valu- able contribution to literature in the restricted semse, as poetry, fiction or philosophical * essays. The venergble btatesman retorded . two outstanding chievements during his regime in ‘Washington. He made it plain to Presi- tlent Roosevelt that since Gen. Lafa- Yette had been honored by a statue, a similar compliment should be paid Count de Rochambeau, commander of the French Army of Alliance in 1777. 'The unveiling of this bronze duplicate lof the statue erected more than a half aentury before on the Loire, at the Ohateau de Rochambeau, was a brilliant | = iceremony, outstanding in the annals of such events. M. Cambon acted as in- termediary between the United States | end Spain, signed the protocol arrang- ing terms in behalf of the Queen Re- gent Christine, and afterward was a sig- matory of the treaty of Parls. He is how approaching his eightieth birthday, but is in robust health and in com- plete mental vigor. PEEE Lord Byng of Vimy, who is shortly fo resign his post as governor general of £anada, took over the onerous task bf commissioner of the metropolitan Mee of London. According to his riends he finds this office almost as Jively as the days of the World War mnd the fighting on the Vimy Ridge end before Ypres.

This' will include a historical summary, not going back to the aca- demic attempts to fly, dating from the Middle Ages, but from the era of the Wright brothers when flying became an accepted achievement, and will present aviation as it was 25 years ago. Lord Thomson, who is in his middle fiftes, is the hero of three wars andewears deco- rations galore on his military uniform. He was barely graduated from the Royal College at Cheltenham when he was assigned to & part in the Mashonaland campaign. He fought in the Boer War from start to finish and the same in the World War, from which he retired with the rank of brigadier general. He has been during several political regimes secretary of state for air_and has proved a worthy chieftain, Soon after assuming this responsibility he published in 1924 a study called “Air Facts and Problems,” a book which forms part of the text work of all ambitious avia- tors. Previously he had written that volume which possibly has been the inception of a whole library of books on variations of a theme “Old Europe’s Suicide,” and “Victors and Vanquished” in the Nght of post-war activities. “Smarande” is more philosphical and, like the other works, has a wide vogue in all armies. Lord Thomson spent some days in the Capital after his pil- e with the air delegates to the shrine of the sclence at Kitty Hawk, * k k¥ Mr. Gerald Felix Warburg, who re- cently accepted a position as cellist in a New York orchestra, is following a pronounced trait of his family, for while the name recalls only financial great- ness to many, to others it is associated with splendid musical accomplishments. Young Gerald Warburg, as he is more familiarly known, is the son of that noted banker, Mr. Paul M. Warburg, to whom President Wilson offered a place leral Reserye Board and who reluctantly accepted the honor because it appeared that the Senate finance committee before which he was haled plainly believed him the incarnation of the Money. Demon which they were fighting. Of the five Warburg brothers, Felix and Paul emigrated to this coun- try from Hamburg in the early ninetles and have made financial history in this country as their ancestors had in West- phalia since the sixteenth century, when they founded a counting house which now is one of the solid financial estab- lishments «of Germany. The oldest of e Wi president brother, Fritz. The youngest, Adolf Max, is a professor of art and a musical comj @ , & cellist and an excellent al critic.

But it is conceded that the new series is much more artistic than was the previous currency of the Britons, just as the critics of Saint-Gaudens would not now wish to have the former coins restored in this republic.

The son of a well known newspaper editor of Kentucky, George W. Townsend, who served on many dailies from Louisville to Lexing- ton, he came to know the revered nov- elist of the Blue Grass State, James Lane Allen, through following his ped- agogical footsteps School to the State University. Mr. ‘Townsend, however, finished his college course at Harvard and then settled into newspaper work in Louisville. On the advice of Mr. Allen he devoted his isure to rpecial writing, and has been successful. His life of Kentucky’s fore- most author is liberally sprinkled with letters written to him during his college , and many in the fine, delicate iting of the novelist have been photo- graphed. They are models in several ways—for careful diction,” accurate and neat transcribing, and for the ease with which they can be understood. Allen’s letters already have been pub- ltuhed,tmd "hfemofim not an unim- portant part of terary output, but those in Mr. Townsend’s book appear for the first time. | Community Dinner TODAY to Be Served in the 2z 3eRAE THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTON, Tales of Well Known Folk l|' Gwendolyn Marie Wallace. =, FEBRUARY BRIDE MRS.
