In- dications have {rnwn stronger that both F{;nce and Italy will send acceptances also. The President and Mr. Macdonald doubtless would have reached an accord and the invitations to the al con- ference would have gone forth had they remained in Washington, and amid more formal surounding. But confer- ences between the men took on a more intimate touch in the camp in the Virginia hills. For hours yesterday, it is reported, they strolled together and sat on a fallen oak tree: on the banks of the Rapidan River, facing a | little cascade in .the stream's course. There they “smoked the pipe of peace” and discussed international affairs. | Their conversations were begun on the | trip down to the camp, continued be- fore a log fire in the President’s cot- tage Saturday night, and in their Sun- day walks through the -camp and be- | yond The intimate details of these con- | versations never will be known. Only the trees stood guard and the rushing waters of the river helped to drown the sound of their voices as they talked of plans for peace, not alone between the two English speaking nations, but of peace for the whole world. Dinner to Be Held Tonight. The President and Mr. Macdonald {left the Rapidan camp about 7:15 | o'clock this morning to drive back to | the Capital. They arrived at the White | House at 10:35. The prime minister and his daughter continue to be the house guests of President and Mrs. Hoover today. Tonight, they will be the guests of honor at the largest din- ner which the President and Mrs. Hoover have given since they have been in the White House. ~Ninety guests will be present, among them the leading officials of this Government and Charles Evans Hughes, former | Secretary of State; Frank W. Kellogg. another former Secretary of State, and John W. Davis, at one time American Ambassador at the Court of St. James. Mr. Macdonald went to the Capitol accompanied by the British Ambassador and Walter Newton, one of the secre- taries to the President. Speaker Longworth was not in the city, and for that reason Mr. Mac- donald was unable to call upon him. Mr. Longworth is not expected to re- turn to Washington for another two weeks, it was said at his office. The ceremonial dinner at the White House tonight will remain the outstand- ing social function of the prime min- ister's visit. At the same time. it will| stand as a new chapter in the Capital's social history. indicated their willingness to take part |’ |LONDON HAILS most entirely with ecruiser strength. The virtual agreement reached would apply the Hoover “yardstick” to meas- ure fighting strength. Under it, the British would have a gross cruiser tonnage of 339,000, and the United States, 5,000 to 300,000. The only remaining point of difference deals with how 30.000 tons of cruisers shall be distributed by the United States, whether in three 10,000-ton cruisers with eight-inch guns or in four 7,500-ton cruisers with six-inch guns. Under the “yardstick” plan, the fight- ing strength of the two fleets would be theoretically equivalent. This takes into consideration, the age, speed, arms and armaments of individual ships. To meet the widely differing needs of the two nations, Great Britain would have a preponderance of small cruisers while America would have an advantage in larger ships of this class.

His speech of greeting is seep as the first step toward “that Anglo-American union which is planned to ‘nforce its opinions and policy against the Euro- pean powers,” and this criticism 1s made an excuse for denunciation of social democracy. La Tribuna editoridlly opines that Mr Macdonald “speaks as a Gud-sent messenger for this peace in the world.” One paragraph gives the Fascist point of view on his -speech: . speech assumes a political value in that it demonstrates, while exclud- ing particular pelitical pacts, an al- liance, and a the necessity of Anglo-American’ upity. _He spoke not at™a Laborite, but as a prime minister, speaking in the name of the great em- pire and also the new one overseas.
