MOUNT REFUSES

Rumely Receiver Refuses to
Entertain Canadian Pro-
ject to Establish War Ar

INDIANAPOLIS, June 16.-Finley
P. Mount Of Indianapolis, receiver for
the M. Rumely company Of Laporte,
said today that no war munitions
would be manufactured in Rumely
plants in United States and Canada.
regardless of the fact that Canadian
authorities have offered contracts
which might result in profits of hun
dreds Of thousands of dollars. Mount
believes that as an officer of the Unit
ed States court he was appointed re-
ceived by Judge Anderson-it would
not be proper to undertake any such
contract.
One of the plants which it was ru-
mored would be used for manufacture
ing shells is the old Gaar-Scott plant
at Richmond, one of chain of Rum
ely plants, lying idle. While at Rich.
mond recently Mount told Richmond
people who wanted to see the plant
operated that he would not make
shells there, and, then the proposition
of Richmond people taking over the
plant and entering into contracts with
the Canadian government, was dis
cussed, but no move to buy the plant
has been made by Richmond people.
II would not care to ask the court
to sanction authority to buy machin.

start ammunition factories in unused
Rumely plants" said Mount 1T is true
there might be immense profit in it,
but 1t is now the policy to concentrate
Rumely manufacturing to farm ma

of the causes of its difficulties. 1t is
true that I am offered contracts by
Canadian authorities"
The Rumely company has $4,000, 900
Of assets in Canada and e21, 900. 900 in

Fur it seems, is very tenacious summer
auxiliary. That it appears to be an evidence OF
glory is probably merely survival OF regal splen-
dor, when kings and great ladies wore robes OF
that purple which more resembles our scarlet, and
edged them with ermne. Whatever be the cause
however, It is TO be remembered that for not
few years past the more elaborate Of the summer
evening gowns have somewhere on them shown
touches Of fur. Gradually pelt ceased to confne
itself to the evening gown and passed to other
articles Of apparel. Thus, as far back as three or
more years ago it was not uncommon to see
topcoat of chinchla, or of the rough mixtures, or
even of lightweight summer cloths, to which were
attached collars of beaver or some other not
overly long haired pelt.
Tho hats, too, after the first two months OF
late spring and early summer, when the straw
hat was still fashionable because OF its novelty as
a light. flower trimmed piece OF headgear, were
often of fur trimmed heavy material. 1t might
be that the hat was OF white felt, and surrounded
by skunk or beaver crown band, in Wnicn was
imbedded a single gold petalled flower or the
hat was of beaver, with fur band, Wnen the
season had advanced to the end OF August OF the
beginning Of September. This season II Is not AT

sire them limit themselves as a rule not to one
but have many of them in various colors ana iof
various occasions.
Thus one woman Of note provided herself with
a white one for tennis And Immediately she de-
cided that she should have dark blue one and
a green one that might match the ribbon when she
wore on her tennis blouse. The ribbons about her
sports hats were likewise of the same hues and
when playing on her own courts her stockings
also followed this color scheme. AT her club and
u.ben entered in tournaments this vividness was
naturally too conspicuous. For motoring she had
a khaki colored sweater coat that extended TO her
knees and was very close in cut This one had
wide revers when opened and when closed 10 the

flowers massed together and trimmed with an

rosebuds.
Yet another model was covered with white vel
