frill of lace extending around the arm.
Here was the only sign of fullness and
even slight departure from the essence
of simplicity in design. yet it dresses up
the right style of woman better than fussy
gowns do.
When woman becomes so enamored OF
princess styles that nothing else suits her
taste. 1t is a complex problem to create
something for her to wear on the street.
After serious study, however, a chic cos
tune was proffered, with the result that IL
is being copied, with certain notifications,
for women who have no special fondness
for the one-piece gown. Here IL is: A
walking skirt with small pleats at the sides
and plain panel in front Over this a
jacket having basques at the back and a
pointed vest. The princess part makes its
appearance at the shoulders where two
long graduated box pleats start rather
broad, then diminish toward the waist and
grow wider again they descend to the
bottom of the skirt. They look as though
they were the connecting link between skirt
and coat and to them do we owe the prin-
cess effect.

denying all of the charges made public af-
fecting him personally. This was in the
nature OF a general denial, except that he
was very specific regarding his alleged ne
gotiation with Gen. Matos and the alleged
payment of money to the latter by himself.

prepared to say whether he cared to make
any statement whatsoever, conveying the
impression that statement from him at
this time would be unimportant. He added
that the entire ground had been covered be-
fore by him In a denial which he made last
summer. After rejecting moment two
Gen. Greene said:
Last summer, I think 1t was in June,
certain newspaper articles were published
regarding this matter, and certain charges
were made regarding me personally. At
that time / made a denial of all these
charges and that denial was made through
the Tribune Later when the formal state
ment of Venezuela was received here, l filed
a deposition with the State Department in
Washington. This deposition includes
specific denial of all the charges affecting
me personally. 1t is full and complete
denial in every respect and il the Attorney
