PRESS STORY DENIED.
Alleged Statement Of Allied High
Command Declared Untrue,

NEW YORK, July zs.-on July 1s a
press association distributed over the
country an alleged Paris dispatch
purporting to be declaration of the
allied high command, which includes
the American forces, quoting the high
command as saying 1t had taken the
Initiative, that prisoners and guns
surpassed the fondest hopes OF the
command and giving certain other
battle details. The Associated Press
caused an investigation to be made in
Paris and learned that the command
had issued no statement whatever.
The investigation disclosed also
that the dispatch as filed by the corre-
spondent did not attribute to the COM
mand the expressions quoted and that
apparently the dispatch was changed
after being censored in France and in
the United States as to represent the
allied high command "as making
statements of fact and authorizing
comments not one word Of which the

The Frock That Makes Itself.

Nowadays We have . little difncufty
about our clothes. some Of us. We
have not. perhaps, 20 much money to
spend on clothes ~ We once had We
have 30 many calls for liberty bond
buying and thrift stamps and Red
Cross donations and all sorts of other
wartime calls that We must needs cut
down little on Dur clothes But that
doesn't really matter. for there is such
a shortage Of labor that clothes are
rather difncult to get. That fs to
say, many women who would other
wise be sewing on the most frivolous
of clothes are now stitching khaki
uniforms. and many men who would
otherwise be measuring OF silks by
the yard are learning to go through
the manual OF arms in record time.
So even II we want clothes, we cannot
always get them /.
Now there is another element that
makes the getting Of clothes a little
difacult We are all buster than we
have ever been before. We don't have
time to spend many min utes with the
dressmaker. or to shop indefatigab1y
through the shops until we come to
just what we wish in the way OF a
new frock.
So we look on the easily mace 1rockS
with q good deal Of interest. A clever
seamstress can make two frocks of
these fabrics that come in an almost
made-up shape in the same time that
she would ordinarily require in max
ing one.
Foremost Just now among these fab
RIGS are tho organdy f1ouncings, made
with tucks and rufiies and f1utings and
lace insertions and edgings, all ready
to make up. The skirt of such frock
consists of a length of the material
scanned up from hem to placket. All
you need do is just to make that seam,
sew in a placket, and mount the skirt
on a belt AS far the bodice. that. too.
is easy. The ruffied or fiuted part of
the material may be used for sleeve
ends or cuffs and perhaps for bertha
or fichu. and the plain part or some to
match it may be cut into the simplest
sort of waist and sleeves.
One of the new organdy founcings is
made with tucks, from knee depth
down, about an inch wide and an inch
apart There is four-inch hem. hem
stitched by machine. II you want to
make such a dress most easily you
can have the bodice put together by
machine hemstitching, at q very small
cost-sleeves put in and seams run
up-and 30 you need do nothing but
cut and baste and fasten on few
snappers or hooks and eyes

One does not feel dismayed at the
thought Of a semi-long jacket with a
short, narrow skirt, so this revolution
will not bring about the fretfulness
near Paris for the first time. The skirts
were full and long then. and with the
long. daring Jackets ones age was in
creased by twenty years at bound.
Another reason for looking upon .

fact that SO few Of them close in the

usually slipped well back toward the

.bULL|SH REPORT LIFTS UP COTTON Texas Reports Flowing We'll Completed, But Drouth
 Continues

New York, March 15.-The cotton market was stronger today on bullish view of the census report, renewed drouth complaints from the southwest and trade buying of the near months. March led the late advance, selling to s2 6sc, or 47 points net higher and with 5 points of the seasons high record, while May touched 31.S5c, or IS points net high- er and closed at 3t.S4c. The general list closed steady at a net gain of 12 to 4s points.
 The opening was irregular, first prices being unchanged to 19 points lower, with March relatively easy under scattering liquidation. That delivery sold at 329lc on the call, but the offerings were soon absorbed with the general list working higher on covering and trade buying accompanied by reports that spinners were calling cotton. The demand of this sort was chiefly in May, but there was also scattered buying of July and Octo- Der, with the strength of March exert ing a sympathetic influence on later de- liveries. July sold up to 31.S9c and De- tober to 30.35c, making net advances ot 15 to IS points on May and later months.
 Private advices from the southwest said that blowing had been pretty well completed over Texas. but that the drouth situation was again becoming se- rious and the official report from Texas rainfall in February was nearly an inch short of normal.

New York Futures
New Orleans Cotton

New Orleans March 15.--After fall of to ' points around the first call here today cotton assumed extreme steadi- ness and went to higher levels on very moderate demand. Buyers found only limited offerings and the scantiness of the supply of contracts was perhaps the most conspicuous feature of the ses- sion. At the highest levels, reached late in the day. prices were to 13 points over yesterdays close. Last prices showed net gains of to 10 points.
 The dry weather in Texas and promise of fair weather to come, reports of huge government orders for cotton goods be- ing allotted to mills as far ahead as next October. the large export movement and a favorable construction placed on the mill statistics for February were stimu- lating features. Exports for the week were 69,7S3 bales against 35.2S2 the same week last year. a more favorable show ing than any previous week of the sea- sonShas offered.
 The census bureau figures, putting .lo- consumption during February at 5lO 1S7 bales, were considered unfavor- able by bearish traders, but the more general idea seemed to be that this was a large consumption in view of the many holidays, legal and fuel. that came in the shortest month of the year.
