Explains New Power.
In a statement tonight explaining
the rurnose of the new mowers sought.
Mitchell Palmer, the alien property
custodian, said:
Power under the law is restricted
now to cases where it is necessary to
sell in order to prevent waste and to
protect the property. The proposed
amendments will largely extend this
power and make it possible for the
alien property custodian to convert
into cash enemv interests in this coun-
try. The Neutrality-suspicious. and the
North German Lloyd docks are owned
by New Jersey corporations in which
the stock is entirely enemy owned,
and has been turned over to the alien
property custodian, who is placing his.
representative on the board of direc.
tors of those companies. *. 4

"If the amendm ents reported by

Solving the Problem of Very Special Dance FrOck for
Very Special Occasions
By GRACE TEORNCLIFFE

The first studio visitor yesterday
morning was a young girl who looked
as fresh and sweet as a rosebud. She
walked straight over to me and with
the friendlies3 smile announced:
This is my birthday. I've come to
see the frock 1 am to wear at my
party tonight. Madame promised 1
should have something wonderful
and said 1 couldn't even have a peak
at it until my birthday, when it would
be finished. Do you know anything
about my frock?'
I had to confess that I didn't-Julie
must have tried it en- at the fittings.
But 1 proceeded to escort the rose
bud girl to Madame who was super
Intending the building of some
stage costumes.
Upon seeing our early morning Wis
itor she wished her many happy re-
turns of the day. then said:
Your frock is in the gray fitting
room ready to be tried on, Miss Penn
berton. I rather thought you would
be in this morning. Claire will go with
you and I will follow presently
We fairly flew back to the fitting

Miss Pemberton could hardly wait
until she could get her suit off and
the frock on.

So lovely? The bodice looks as if it
should have been made for one of

ures," she exclaimed" and the Skin:
is so perfect
1t was a pleasure to hear her en-
thuse over her frock, for it really de-
served every nice thing she could
soy about it.
Madame had combined a pale tint
| of mauve tulle with white tulle and
mauve satin in the making of the
frock.
The skirt had petticoat of soft
white satin softened with two layers
of white chiffon, trimmed with frills
of narrow lace and bow knots of mar
row mauve and blue ribbons.
Miss Pemberton being petite sh
had given her long unbroken lines in
front by outlining the mauve over
skirt with a narrow pleated frill of
the same material.
A second tunic of mauve tulle was
hung over this one and it was even
more lavishly trimmed with it's frill-
ings. The long tunic opened in front
to disclose an underskirt of white
tulle trimmed with a series of broad
hand run tucks. This panellike front
also served to accentuate Miss Penn

dough to rise until a little more than
double in bulk, then knead again I'M
til the gas is evenly distributed
throughout the dough. Shape into
loaves, place in creased pans and al
low to rise again until a light touch
with the finger makes a slight dent.
A hard, dry crust should not be al
lowed to form over the top of the loaf
while it is rising. This may be pre-
vented by rubbing the surface with a
little melted fat.
Bake for As minutes to one hour
in a moderate oven 1895 degrees to
400 degrees F.) if pan of water is
placed in the bottom of the oven to
keep the air moist In that case the
bread need be baked only 80 to IS
minutes.
This makes a loaf Weighing about
one pound.
Variations: In combination with
wheat flour, oatmeal makes an excel
lent bread. 1t should be added with
the salt, fat and liquid. If desired.
n: GLASSES may be used for sweetening.
The dough should be sitter than
when all white flour is used or the
baked loaf will be very moist and of
a coarse texture.
When corn meal is used, pour the
liquid over the salt sugar, fat and
corn meal. Heat the mixture gradual

in standard recipe.
| Barley flour can be used success
fully in combination. Like rye flour
it does not, contain the gluten of
wheat and therefore does not make
as light bread.
Until the housewife becomes ac-
customed to using the cereals as a
substitute, it is sometimes advisable
to use at first the proportion OF "a

tUte, gradually increasing the amount

flour to one cup substitute.

SEVENTEENTH
ANNIVERSARY

WiIhelmina, Queen of the Neither
Iandsf and her Teuton husband,
Prince Henry of Mecklenburg
Schwerin, will celebrate today the
seventeenth anniversary of their mar
riage. Wilhelmina was twenty years
old at the time and had occupied the
throne since her eighteenth birthday,
her mother having acted as regent
from 1890, when King William III,
died, until the girl queen became of
age. AS year after year passed, fol-
lowing Wilhelmina's marriage, with
out a child being born to the royal
couple, the Dutch people were almost
despairing of an heir to the throne
when at last Princess Juliana Will
helmina was born in 1909. Although
disappointed in their hopes of a male
heir, the subjects of Wilhelmina were
wildly enthusiastic over the birth of
the little Princess of Orange, who is
now the pet and idol of the nation.

Incidents ia the Lines of
World Famous Women
How Queen Won HOnOrs from Pope and Became the
Woman to Receive Them
By ELOISE HARRINGTON

iii 1868 decided to visit the Pope. As
a pious Christian she desired to pay
her homage to the Holy Father, and
as a friend to consult with him on
E:any affairs of state.
Attended by a magnificent train
of knights and followers she made
her entry into Rome. Peter of Lui-
sag nan, King of Cyprus, met her at
the gates and escorted her to the Por-
ia S. Pietro. At this poiSt she was
welcomed by the cardinals, the clergy
and the nobility, who then conducted
| her to the steps of st. Peters Cathe-
dral The Pope in his high robes of
state waited to receive Joanna, and
as the majestic queen approached him
| he descended a few of the steps to
meet her.
The queen knelt and Urban raised
her from her knees. Together they
entered the church, and the stately
procession made its way up the long
nave to the altar.
High mass was said at the begin
ming of which the Pope blessed the
Golden Rose and drew it's stem
through his sash.
At the conclusion of the service he
turned to the beautiful Queen of Ma
PIES, who sat but little distance
from him and presented her with the
Golden flower much to the surprise
Of all who were present
The cardinals made no effort to
conceal their displeasure that this
coveted honor had not been bestowed
upon the King of Cyprus. Never be-
fore in the history of the church had
this special favor been bestowed up
on a woman.
| Upon leaving the church a cardinal
more bold than his fellows remon-
strated with Urban for giving Joanna
the Golden Rose.
The pontiff rebuked him severely
for daring to question the wisdom
of his choice, saying:
There are exceptions to all rules
Who ever before heard of a poor Alb
bolt of st. Victor at Versailles being
Pope?"
Joanna was singled out for still
greater honor. On Easter Sunday
Urban presented her with the blessed
bat and sword. But the queen, noted
for her tact and grace relieved tht
;Geep modification of Peter of Lusig
nan by requesting the Pope to confer
the sword upon him. Urban g-antins
her wish she approached the King o
Cyprus, and, with her own hands
placed the jeweled sword in his. Witt

Thus by her unselfish desire to say:

She visited both French pontiffs who
showered her with honors. Each,
during his sovereignty, bestowed up
on her the Golden Rose one of the
rarest of favors of those days.
