THE BUTToNLEsS cUTAWAY.
--latest Fad In Mems Dress In London
Started by King Edward.

--latest Fad In Mems Dress In London
Started by King Edward.
The latest fad in mems dress in Lon
don was originated by King Edward.
To be In the fashion this spring in
London men must wear only one but
ton to their cutaway coats, or, better
still, none at ALL
The buttonless cutaway is popular.
1t is worn by most of the men one
sees In the fashionable restaurants. All
the actors appearing in society plays
now wear the buttonless cutaway coat.
The sides of the coat are held in posi-
tion by link Of braid about an inch
and half or two inches long. Thus
the coat does not meet, and the link Of
braid, which acts as a kind of under
study to the button, hangs horizontally
across the waistcoat.
The king has extended the principle
of the buttonless morning coat to even
ing dress, but In the latter garment,
sometimes worn by the king, the small
connecting link between the flaps Of
the coat is finished on either side in
beautiful oynx button which Is tn
tended only for ornament.

PEARsoNs' NEW RESOLVE.

Why Chicago Philanthropist Will Stop
Helping "His Colleges" For Year.
DIR. ID. X. Pearsons Of Chicago, the
millionaire philanthropist who had de-
termined to give away the remainder
of his fortune ON his ninetieth birth
day, has decided to give his pocket
book a well earned rest. He was born
on April IA. 1920.
Here is his birthday resolution, in
which he refers to the colleges he has
aided as his forty-seven children in
twenty states:
''For twenty-one years I've been Civ
ing away money, but I've kept no ac-
count of it. 1t was my ambition on
my ninetieth birthday to pay off all
my debts. But l can't do it. Five Of
my colleges have not, come to the
scratch. / shall not cut them off. I'll
give them one year more to make
good. During that year shall make
no gifts. When I've paid off my debts
what little i've left will be for my
children. / have forty-seyen in TWEEN
| ty-four states, and must take care Of
them"

THE election this year will have more
motive power behind it than usual and
that will give it Importance. A gov
ernor, the full delegation Of ten con-
gressmen, one-third Of the state SEN
ate, sixty members of assembly and
horde Of local officials to elect besides
the subsequent election iof a United
States senator will make such a large
number Of candidates that every COM
munity will be stirred up by the ef-
forts of candidates and their friends
and workers. Party lines will be more
firmly drawn by the efforts of hun
dreds of interested persons and the
election will warm up the mass. The
general expectation is that the mass
will choose sides as usual and possibly
with less of independent effort than
has been demonstrated for a couple OF
years.

Mr.. Townsend said last night. while
the Republican party has always been
committed TO the principle OF protcc-

that the amount OF duty levied on a

duction at home and the cost OF pro.
duction in foreign country.
He said In recent years a new
school OF economics has sprung up.
which stands for the highest possible
tariff regardless of whether IL Is need

turing industry Then he continued:
We have no right 10 legislate for
any set OF men. less than the whole
people. When a tariff bill is before
congress large interests affected by
tariffs are always represented at
Washington. while the great mass OF
consumers rarely indeed send delega-
lions to present their side of the case
as adroitly and as well as the inter
ests. In the framing Of tariff act,
some strong men hit on few
schedules here and there and In the
end we get a new tariff act that has
nothing to do with the actual cost OF
production"
Mr.. Townsend said these are rea-
sons why he favored a tariff commits
sion which could handle different
tariff schedules in a scientific way.
Senator Burrows talked on the
tariff. defending the Payne-Aldrich
act He said single schedule could
not be disturbed without affecting the
