Ambassador Has Cold. The Ambassador, confined to bed | with & cold, could not be present. But Lady Halifax did the honors for | the occasion. When the guests were | assembled, she climbed up on a green | brocaded divan and proposed the | toast which her husband had | planned to offer. “Last, Friday we joined in a decla- ration which set out both our pur- pose and our determination to achieve it,” she read from a slip of | paper. “Yesterday, in words which | will re-echo ‘round. the world, THE EVENING 8§ Defense Sidelights Nearly 1,000 Women Trained In Red Cross Canteen Work Nearly a thousand District women who volunteered for the nutrition and canteen branches of the Red Cross will be fully trained by the end of the month, Mrs. Theodore Leary, chairman of the nutrition classes for the District chapter, an- noupced yesterday. Enrolled in the classes were members of the Federation of Wom- en's Clubs, Y. W. C. A, Women's | Democratic Club and League of | American Pen Women and a number of elementary school teachers. Courses for February are now open | for enrollment. Graduates, who are automatically registered as nutrition sides with the Central Volunteer | Bureau, are sent into the fleld in emergéncy situations to assist | trained nutritionists. Mrs. Sherman Trowbridge, chair- man of the emergency canteen, has | organized 17 classes throughout the | city under the instruction of leading | dietitians of the District, headed by | Mrs. Lennice Sartell of St. Eliza- beth’s Hospital. More than 500 persons attending & | mass meeting of the Friendship civ- {lian defense area were told last night at Woodrow Wilson High School that “fire bombs are your | babies. If they fall on your home it's up to you to put them out.” ‘This advice came from Policeman Robert Willilams of the eighth pre- cinct, who delivered a blackboard lecture on incendiary bombs, ex- plaining how they could be combat- ted.

The medals carry the words, “American Red Cross, Pro Patria,” at the top, and beneath the shield, “Blood Donor.” Mrs. Dorothy Mason Walton, director of the local Blood Donor Service, an- nounced that all those with blood donor certificates may obtain medals at the center, Twenty-third street and Constitution avenue N.W. How a s'ationary smokescreen can prevent buildings struck by in- cendlary bombs from throwing off light to guide attacking bombers was demonstrated last night to 150 air-raid wardens outside the Munici- pal Center, Capt. William L. Clemens, as- sistant to Col. Lemuel Bolles, di- rector of District defense, explained that the gas, which is put to wind- ward of the object to be covered, was not- harmful to those who walk through it in fighting fires. The demonstration, “which also| included incendiary bomb instruc- | tion, was handled by J. A. Danof and other Edgewood Arsenal ex-| perts. ‘The carrying power of the Dis-| trict’s newly installed first two gen- | uine air-reid sirens was to be tested at 4:30 p.m. today, but citizens were advised to pay no attention to the demonstration. Of the 41 sirens purchased by 1he District, the two to be tested are atop the Municipal Center and ‘Thomson School.

There was a| brief pause—and then the assem- | bled guests resumed the friendly | conversation which marked this “after 6" reception. President Roosevelt, who had | | been the first signer of the historic document, was represented yester- day by Vice President Wallace and Undersecretary of State Welles, among others. Litvinoffs Attend. Prime Minister Churchill was ab- | ent, but Maxim Litvinoff, the Rus- | sian Ambassador and third signer, attended with Mme. Litvinoff, both being the center of animated groups throughout the afternoon. Both the Chinese Ambassador, Dr. Hu Shih, and the Chinese Minister of Foreign Affairs, T. V. Soong, were present, the latter accompanied by Mme. Soong, who wore a Chinese gown of brilliant peacock blue. Etienne Boegner, a member of the | Free French delegation here, was in the company, which also included | representatives of all the refugee governments which had affixed their signatures to the historic declara- tion. India’s new envoy, Sir Girja Shan- kar Bajpai, who is agent general for his government, also was there tak- ing his place with the diplomatic representatives of the British do- ‘minions.

ROME, Jan. 8 (Andi Agency)— Fascist spokesmen expressed in- terest today in the statement by Enrique Ruiz Guinazu, Argentine Foreign Minister, that Argentina would not agree to military alli- ances or “measures of pre-bellig- erency.” “South American statesmen are the best judges of the interests of their countries, but let them not ignore that ,their attitude in the coming pan-American conference will decide the political and eco- nomic future of their countries,” they said. (Ruiz Guinazu, in an inter- view with the newspaper La Nacion, indicated Argentina could not accept any decisions of the coming Rio de Janeiro conference that would commit her to a declaration of war on the Axis or a status of “pre- belligerency.”) Newspapers, commenting on Presi- | dent Roosevelt's message to Congress calling for huge armaments in-| creases, sought to assure Italians| that the program would never be achieved.
