Special Correspondents OF The star.
NEW YORK, September 4.-France
has set its mind on velvet. Possibly 1t
had hundreds Of yards OF this fabric
in reserve The Germans control a
large slice Of northern France. in which
lie the mills that produce most Of the
new materials twice a year. This has
modified the output, although it has
not compelled the workers to cease
working.
Rodier, the master weaver, has con-
tinued his activity as though the war
did not exist. His supply for 1916, spring
and summer. has been shown already
to the buyers who are making future
plans, but there can be no denial of
the fact that France, working at her
best, has not been able to produce any
especial novelties in winter materials.
The designers have fallen back upon
velvet, corded silks, taffetas and serges,
and have let England supply the wool
ems.
The corded silks are used for after
noon gowns as we'll as the new volumi-
nous Russian wraps that Cabot has ex-
plotted. This house shows twenty five
Of these wraps, each bearing Russian
name, but not all Of them are made Of
silk; the splendid brocade and embroid-
cred velvets that are associated with
the Russian priesthood and court life
in national dress are also used.
1t is in velvet, however, that most OF
the designers have worked out their
new ideas. They feel quite certain that
America will accept the fabric with
out reserve; they do not anticipate any
struggle such as was begun when they
introduced tafeta for evening gowns.
The American women look upon taffeta
with suspicion and upon velvet with
enthusiasm.
They do not always use the latter in
a suitable setting. because they persist
in making 1T UP into coat suits for the
morning. and If velvet has any rights
they should be regarded with dignity.
1t is the material Of royalty. There is
nothing higher in the realm Of fabric,
unless it is the REMARKABLE metal bro
cades of the fifteenth century, which have
also been produced on the latter-day
looms.

are so much the vogue that It Is a wise

ments.

silk is preferable. This will be sea-
son of silks, and never have good silks
been SO Inexpensive. This frock, made
with long sleeves and with an oriental
embroidered band. or one embroidered
by yourself; or with shirred or ruff
fed band, would look lovely. II you are
slender, add a ruffle around the waist,
for that is very smart. indeed: but I'M
less you are quite slender, omit the
waist ruff1e.
The writer advises using the long,
and not the short. sleeve, since long
sleeves are the last cry in fashion and
are a protection to the arms. The
shorter sleeve is the better for wom-
an who will wear the dress while ac-
complishing her housework. or when
engaged in any task that is more con-
veniently done when cuffs and frills do
not brush the wrists.
As to the bottom of the dress, use
any sort of trimming desired, always
remembering that the frock is for
morning wear and intended to be very
simple laborate trimming at the
bottom would look out of place.
To obtain this pattern mail 10 cents
in stamps or coin to Lucille Gordon

number and size of pattern wanted

it Is that 1t may be made to do duty for

states have two cent passenger rate
and whatever loss is incurred is reeov-
cred through freight revenue. The JUS
tice of such procedure was recently
passed upon by the Supreme Court
of West Virginia and the decision is
so far-reaching that we have asked
L. E. Johnson, president OF the Nor
folk and Western Railway whose road
contested the case to briefly review
the suit Mr.. johnson said in part:
Some ten years ago, passenger
fares were fixed by the legislatures
OF a large number OF states at two
cents a mile. AS basis for such
economic legislation, no examination
was made OF the cost OF doing the
business SO regulated. nor was any
such rate would yield to the rail
way companies an adequate or any
net return upon the capital invested
in conducting this class of business
such a law was passed in West
Virginia in 1907 The Norfolk and
Western Railway Company put the
rate into effect and maintained 1t for
two years. Its accounting during
these two years showed that two
cents mile per passenger barely
paid the out-of-pocket cost and moth
ing was left to pay any return on
capital invested 1t sought relief from
the courts. Expert accountants fol-

On Two-Cent Passenger Rates

both the State and the Railway Com
pany testified that the claims of the
railroad were sustained by the facts
Two cents did not pay the cost OF
carrying a passenger a mile. The
State, however, contended that the
railroad was earning enough surplus
on its state freight business to give a
its passenger as well as its freight
business, For the purposes OF the
case, the railroad did not deny this,
but held to its contention that the
State could not segregate its pas
senger business for rate fixing with
out allowing a rate that would be
sufficient to pay the cost Of doing
business and enough to give some
return upon the capital invested in
doing the business regulated. This
was the issue presented to the Su-
preme Court Its decision responds
to the judgment OF the fair-minded
sentiment OF the country. The Su-
preme Court says that, even though
railroad earns a surplus on a par.
ticular commodity by charging rea-
sonable rates, that affords no reason
for compelling it to lfaul anothers
person or property for less than cost.
The surplus from a reasonable rate
properly belongs to the railway com
pany. II the surplus is earned from
an unreasonable rate then that rate
should be reduced The State may
not even up by requiring the railroad
to carry other traffic for nothing or
| for less than cost.
The decision Is a wholesome one
and demonstrates that the ordinary
rules of fair dealing apply to railway
companies The fact that one makes
a surplus on his wheat crop would
never be urged as reason for com
polling him to sell his cotton at less
than cost 1t would not satisfy the
man who wanted bread to be told
that its high price enabled the cotton
manufacturer to get his raw product
for less than cost In this case the
court reaffirmed the homely maxim
that each tub must stand upon It's
own bottom"
