LONDON, April 6.—Sir Rennell Rodd, Conservative member of the House of Commons, announced his retirement | old. He began his long diplomatic and political career in 1883, when he was appointed an attache in the diplomatic service. From that date to 1920 Sir Rennell was in the diplomatic corps m various capi- tals of Europe, but probably was most widely known as the British Ambassa- dor to Italy from 1908 to 1919. After 1920 he became the British delegate to the League of Nations and served in various extra diplomatic ca- pacities, among which was as American non-national member of the Perma- nent International Commission for Ad- vancement of Peace Between the United States and Venezuela. Sir Rennell wrote a life of Prederick, Emperor and Crown Prince of Germany and of Sir Walter Raleigh.
