RS DELEGATION | SALS FOM PN Party of 37 Will Stop in Washington En Route to London Conference. Wy the Associated Press. YOKOHAMA, November 30.—The Japanese delegation to the forthcoming London disarmament conference, headed by former Premier Reijiro Wakatsuki, sajled for Seattle yesterday amid a chorus of “banzais” from thousands who thronged the pier in spite of a downpour. As the liner Siberia Maru, bearing the delegation, steamed down Tokio Bay a group of destroyers and sub- marines formed around her and escorted here out to sea, while the battieships &t the Yokohama naval base dressed ship as the liner passed. Just before sailing Wakatsuki said to #he Associated Press correspondent: “We are highly hopeful that our journey across America and visit to Jour President and delegates at Wash- ington will promote a sympathetic understanding between the American and Japanese peoples and governments which will prove a strong factor in our united success at London.” It was noticeable that Admiral ‘Takarabe, who goes to the conference a8 a statesman and not as a naval of- ficer, according to the official explan- ation, wore a new cutaway coat and derby hat. ‘The party numbers 37, including Mme. ‘Takarabe. CONSULTATION VOGUE IS COSTLY IN PARIS Peeresses Give Advice in Aristo: eratic Way, but Price Is 1,000 Francs or More. PARIS (N.AN.A).—A new fillip has been given to the “consulting” profes- sions by the vogue for the consuitation and it will cost you a thousand francs or_more. But for this you may have a baroness, duchess or even a princess to receive you luxuriously and advise you in an aristocratically leisurely way. Tea is generally thrown in and a baroness or duchess will probably tell you where o get the garb she advocates for you @t a bargain figure. The sceptical may scorn the idea, but reassurance regarding color schemes, materials and styles given by an ex- quisitely gowned or pajamaed nobility in gorgeous surroundings may have a lasting psychological ~effect, whose fruits are the wearing of the recom- mended clothes a good deal longer than usual Both the consulter and the consulted are looking upon the idea as a new form of art, and art will have its fash- fons. Witness the current craze for the colored school. Sidike, the coal-black Senegalese painter, is the idol of the moment. His landscapes have brought him from a cotton plantation to the artists’ colony of Montparnasse and into the favor of Paris. So far Sidike seems to have preferred exhibiting his works in the orthodox gallery manner to show- them al fresco. e open-air picture exhibitions by the artists of Montparnasse are now a feature of Paris life. Financially these exhibitions are not unsuccessful, but Montparnasse has been grumbling about the public ignorance of art. And because Montparnasse has ac- eused the man in the street of not knowing a masterpiece when he sees one, the grolip called “the Horde of Montparnezz:” decided to put the mat- ter to the test. Some of the open-air picture fatrs now include works by famous” masters, with the signatures le?‘gorarfly ouliterated. ese treasures, sprinkled among the ‘works of the struggling geniuses of to- Cay, are for sale at the same prices as those demanded for the efforts of the artist on whose stand they happen to be exhibited.
