DREADED TYPHUS IS

 Owing to the lack of sufficient clothing especially Of uniforms. sol- diers who have been dismissed from the hospitals and allowed Co return to their homes. have been given the same clothing they wore when they came into the hospital This in many cases was doubtless already infected with the body parasite which carries the typhus and which is able to lie dormant for weeks.

IMMIGRATION IS BIG PROBLEM OF MOMENT
 IN NEW AUSTRALIA
Question of Admitting Asiatic lm- migrants to Various Parts of Australian Continent AWakenS Great Interest.

MELBOURNE. Australia. April 1o- The subject oJ White Australia" and the question of admitting Asiatic im- migrants recently was discussed pub- Hciy by one of the state governors in the Commonwealth. with tne mmedi- ate result that he was officially asked for am explanation and he expressed his regret that he had said anything at an on that head The executive who spoke his mind was Sir Henry Galway of South Australia. and it was the Prime Minister of the Common wealth Andrew Fisher who called him Co account
 Sir Henry was speaking at a lun- choou at am agricultural fair in South Australia and he devoted part of his speech Co the Northern Territory. the huge area in the upper part of Aus tralia which is under federal control through the medium Of an administra- tor. lt is a much debated question how the Territory is to be settled for
 
 said among other things
 Looking generally at the future of this vast continent. ] am inclined to think that the hardest nut the Feeder. al Government has Co crack is the de- yeiopment of the northern territory. How that territory is going to be de- yeloped by white labor alone. ]. for one am unable to conceive By all means have a White Australia.' if under that pricipIe you can develop the country.

 The day following this comment Mir Fisher said that if Sir Henry had been correctly quoted his words con stiuted "a grave official indiscretion' which could not be allowed to pass without protest Thereupon he tele graphed 10 the Premier Of South Aus tralia asking him 10 ascertain whether the Governor had said what had been imputed to him Sir Henry replied tc the Premier that the newspaper re- ports of his speech were correct, that it would have been wiser if heNhad not touched upon the color question and that he was sorry he had done SO.

FREAK FASHIONS HIT
 BY WARS INFLUENCE
MARROW GOWNS AND LURID COL oRs ARE BANIsHED FOR
 MORE SOBER STYLES

PARIS, April 1O.-FreaK fashions as well as other eccentricities have been unable to withstand the serious spirit of wartime
 In the opinion of competent authori- ties fashionable women will never again be imprisoned in the narrow gowns of the past few years. It re- quires from six to ten yards of mater ial to make the full, flowing plaited reactionary skirt that is coming into vogue The colors are very serious black, dark blue and dark gray, but frequently set off by original fantasi- es in collars, lapels, vests, stripes and belts in lively colors, like a ray of hope among the sOmbre thoughts that beset us" said a Rue de la PaiX dress maker
 The shortness as well as the full ness of the new skirt affords added physical relief and e the same time lends itself to the increased elegance in styles of footwear 10 is predicted that it will also deal a hard blow to the handbag since the opportunities for pockets are immense, A mysteri. ous law of fashion seems to require a wide hat with a narrow skirt and a narrow hat with a full skirt, in conse- Quence the broad brims are going out and toques bicornes and the popular military "bonnets de police" (fatigue cans) are the rule.
 "The great trouble with all ths,' says an important tradesman of the Rue de Ia Paix. "is that one hat and one gown now do the service of from six to ten" Instead of ordering re- cepton gowns. evening gowns, dim ner gowns and gowns for all sorts of special social functions the Parisien- ne orders on simple costume.
