In many ways the accord reached between ih'> Prime Minister and the President blazed a i ew pioneer trail in diplomatic negotiations. In speed, frankness and setting, the decision reached to call the disarmament conference stood out in marked contrast tv Die methods of old fashioned dip-
lomacy.
Furthermore, it was emphatically recorded that the agreement between the two statesmen involves no ave- miiiance between the two countries. The British Prime Minister many times througout his career has vigorously opposed alliances between nations and stamped them as one of the main causes of international
friction.
“Alliances are of the old-fashion-ed school of diplomacy,” asserted the Prime Minister in his first public
utterance in Washington.
President Hoover end Prime Minister MacDonald simply stand side by side for peace. They have reached j ” e an understanding on naval parity! between their own countries but the specific details on that score will be left for the technicians of the two
countries to iron out.
The two statesmen brought their contribution to a new diplomacy literally out of the wilderness. For it was in the- isolation of the Hoover camp on the top of the Blue Ridge Mountains that they came to a suc-

strange promises that officers found that the Rhoads girl, a high priestess vf the cult, had been buried. The girls faster mother, Mrs. William Rhoads, claimed the resurrection of Willa was to prove the tenants of the
cult of which she is a member. In n casket alongside cf that of the
