JAN. 17, 1930. U,S,DELEGATES DISCUSS BRITISH ‘HOLIDAY' SOD Battleship Reduction Chief Topic of Conversation Among Experts. BY RAYMOND CLAPPER I'nlttd Prew Staff Correspondent PLYMOUTH, England, Jan. 17. Great Britain's proposal for battle ship reduction, as outlined by Pre mier J. Ramsay MacDonald, was the chief topic of conversation among American naval conference delegates as they stepped ashore today. Recovering from the buffeting of an eighty-mile gale during the last day’s run of the S. S. George Wash ington, the envoys found time for detailed discusison of the British proposals. Two viewpoints were expressed— first that the premier may have sought to gain an initial advantage by his "surprise” statement; second, that the British authorities set forth ♦heir proposals knowing there was little likelihood of acceptance. The fact that MacDonald suggest 'd a reduction of 10,000 tons in the Jze of battleships—from 35,000 tons •o 25.000 tons—is taken to indicate hat he had little hope of finding his suggestion for total abolition taken seriously. A majority of the naval experts, particularly those familiar with con struction, believe it would be wholly inadvisable to reduce the size of battleships 10,000 tons. They say 'hat thus difference in tonnage goes almost entirely into underwater and deck armor. The delegation held its final con ference on technical matters Thurs day and then devoted the remain der of their time to packing.

A way to take off flabby fleesh is de scribed today by Jac Auer, noted body culturist. in the fifth of a series of articles on "RoundinK the 1930 Curves” which he has written for The Times and NEA Service. BY JAC AUER Written for NEA Service FLABBY flesh is no asset to any woman. It is often the result of the wrong method of reducing. I am a firm believer in such reduc ing methods as will tone up the muscles and take off the flesh while doing it. One of the first things in flatten ing out the abdomen is to realize that the way you carry your breast bone and your shoulders has much to do with the looks of your figure. When your breastbone is well up and your shoulders back, the mus cles of your abdomen naturally are drawn taut. That, then is the way to hold yourself. If you do not do this naturally, exercise will make you conscious of how much better you feel that way and you gradually will learn how to hold yourself without any effort. Such an exercise can be done in two ways. If you have someone to help you, do it in the following way; Stand with your feet together, hands behind you, gripping your aid’s hands. Fall forward, with your shoulders moving your feet, fall again. Repeat ten times. If you have no one to help you, stand In a comer, a little away from the wall, and fall forward, catching yourself against the wall, straighten, without moving your feet, fall again. You must stand erect as you do this.

B<j United Press WASHINGTON, Jan. 17.—Mrs. Doily Curtis Gann attained the highest social honor Washington can offer at the President’s dinner honoring her brother, Vice-President Curtis, Thursday night, but none of her social rivals was present to wit ness the triumph. The Vice-Presi dent was the only government offi cial among thirty-four guests. Asa result none of those who have contested Mrs. Gann’s claim, as sister and official hostess of the Vice-President, to the honors of the second lady of the land, saw her enter the dining room on the arm of President Hoover and take her seat at his right at the table. Mrs. Alice Longworth Roosevelt, said never to have acknowledged Mrs Gann’s primacy, was not among the evening's guests. Senators sometimes have attended vice-presidential dinners in the past, White House attaches said, but the President, they indicated, decided to bring together some new groups in Curtis’ honor, as it is customary for him to be invited to the homes of the senators. Diplomats, as far as could be learned, never have been invited to dinners honoring the Vice-President. Thus the absence of both officials and diplomats relieved the White Hous of the embarrassment of a clear-cut decision regarding Mrs. Gann’s official rank.

Members of the Advertising Club of Indianapolis heard this Thursday from Walter Dorwin Teague, New York, designer and art director, who addressed them at the Columbia Club. "Women’s dresses,” he said, “have the straight and curved lines of buildings on city streets. “Modern art derives its lines, its triangles from modern archi tecture’s habits,” he asserted.
