LOMAX NOW WITH
WESTERN PAC|F| F|C

1t was officially announced at the
offices of the Western Pacific at San
Francisco yesterday that E. L, Lo-
max. who for twenty-five years has
been general passenger agent Of the
Union Pacific at Omaha, has been ap-
pointed passenger and traffic man
ager Of tho Western Pacific with Of
fees at San Francisco. Mr. LomaX
is to assume his duties at once.
The appointment of Lomax comes
as surprise, as there has been much
talk Of promotion of men on the Gould
lines to the important position. The
taking Of Mr Lomax from the Harri-
man line will indeed be surprise.
and possibly disappointment, to men
on the Gould line who stood in line
for promotion
Mr. LomaX stands high as a rail-
road official. He is known by many
local officials.

William Lee Park. general superintendent
of The Union Pacific Railroad Company. was

COMPANY Al n special meeting Of tho board
of directors OF that road Yesterday Mr.
Park. who succeeds ]. G. Rawn. who re-
signed about two months ago to become the
president Of tho ''Monon," will make his
Headquarters at Chicago.
Mr. Park entered the railway service in
$50 as brakeman for the Union Pacific.
and has entire service las been with that
road IN 1873 he became a freight conductor
and remained in that capacity until 1852,
when he was made a passenger conductor.
In 1926 he was promoted to be division su.
pcrintendont
While II has been autheritatvely stated
that there is no truth in the reported rcsig-
nati-l of James 7. Harahan as president
OF the Illinois Central the rumor is under
stood 10 have this much basis in fact: Mr.
iiarahan has been president only since 1907
succeeding StuyVCsapt Fish. who was ousted
after bitter fight for control of the road
by the late l. II. Hartman. Since his elec-
ton : president Mr.. Harahan has lost the
services Of two Of his most valuable assist
aFts-Jacob II. Dickinson. the general coun-
SCI. who resigned to become Secretary Of
War under the present administration, and
Mr. Rawp.
Owing TO these designations. 1T is said. Mr.
ltarahan suggested TO the directors that
the. elect him chairman Of the board. and
offered his resignation as president 10 en-
asle them to put some one else in his place.
The directors, however. could not find the
right man TO fill the Office and Mr.. Haraban
was continued in the place.

clothes. The planning of an evening gown
is practically a "fait accompli' for the
buyer Of one OF the Russian tuuics or
coats OF mail that are being shown. Com
posed OF a blouse. pepIum and sleeves, all
that the dressmaker needs 30 supply is a
well fitting, plain underdress Of heavy silk
or brocade.
These garnitures are made in all colors,
Of embroidered chiffon. spangled net. lace.
steel beads and countless other transparent
fabrics. and truly deserve the oft msap-
piled term of 'confection." Almost all Of
them have a round cut at the neck and
elbow sleeves Some few are finished with
a satin belt. Willie others have q broad
ribbon sash fastened just below the hem
Of the tunic.
Other garnitures that are not so complete
are broad bands or corsages and hip pieces
of metallic or floss embroidery. With these
a little more planning is necessary, as skirt
bodice and sleeve are not covered. As is
the case with the Russian tunics, and as
the amount OF bought trimming becomes
less. the amount of detailed work on the
gown becomes greater. In fact. it is quite
obvious that decoration and thinking vary
inyersely, for as the one increases the
other grows less. Does this. then, lead one
to the conclusion that heavy thinking and
plain clothes are synonymous?
