In Senate Tomorrow

WASHINGTON, July e.-With The
failure of Congress to adjourn until
next month, wartime prohibition will
have the right of way in the Senate
when it meets at noon Monday, and
leaders were prepared for a bitter con-
test
Prohibition advocates won prelim-
mary victory in the Senate tonight.
Senator Sheppard, Of Texas, undertook
to have the Senate consider the SILL
100000 emergency agricultural appro-
priation, with its prohibition amend
ment, but was blocked by a motion for
adjournment until August 12 Later,
however, the Senate voted to give the
measure right of way after the recess,
which then was expected.
With recess plans failing, the emer-
gency bill retains it's privileged status.
The amendment to the measure by
Senator Norris, Nebraska, provides for
prohibition of the sale of distilled
liquors. except for export, and the
manufacture of wine after next June
80. The manufacture of beer would be
prohibited three months after final
enactment of the bill, but prohibition
leaders have agreed to an amendment

ure or wine after that time

Woods Again Asked
To Quit Committee

WASHINGTON, July Another
chapter in the fight to dislodee Frank
?. Woods from the Craftsmanship of the
Republican National Committee was
added tonight by a letter signed by
Representatives Gray, of New Jersey,
and Meeker, of Missouri, and forwarded
to Chairman Woods. The letter, writ
ten in reply to Woods's rejoinder to the
original GrayMeeker communication
urging his resignation. resents the
charge that the protesting legislators
were prompted by the Liquor inter-
ests" in seeking Woods's retirement.
The Representatives wrote as fol-
lows:
"You insinuate in your reply to our
letter that our request for your resig-
nation as chairman of the National
Republican Congressional Committee
was not prompted by our knowledge of
your opposition to the war policies of
the government and our conviction
that you are therefore misrepresent-
ative of militant Americanism and Re-
publicanism, but was due rather to our

Officers of the Marine Corps said yes
terday that Captain John F. Burns,
whose name appeared Yesterday in the
casualty list as killed in action, was the
first enlisted man in the corps to OBJ
tain commission. His home was in
Corning, N. Y. He enlisted there in
1908 and had seen service in all quar-
ters of the world.
His exploit in going scatheless
through street of a Nicaragua city
which was swept with machine gun fire
is legend of the corps. In recent
letter to friend here he said:
Il believe it safe to say that life in
the front area is rather intense, inter
esting and exacting. 1t is an expert

world, and | am sure that most of the
men feel the same.

purest type Of Americans, in search of

finding in large lots. An old man of
the 1900 type would look on US with

Lieutenant J. Kenneth Rutherford, of
1853 Alta Avenue, Yonkers, who was re-

World independence
Day Is Suggested

PARIS, July (By Havas Agency).-
The suggestion that the Allied nations
jointly fix a date to commemorate
throughout the world independence
from autocracy is made in a letter to
the "Matin" by DR.. Morton Prince, of
Boston.
September 6, the first day of the
Battle Of the Marine, when Germany's
ambitions of word domination we're
crushed by the Franco-British armies,
appears to the writer to be particularly
appropriate.
The "Matin" says that the idea of a
common holiday among the Allied ma
tlons is much in favor, and says that
July ID, Bastile Day, has been selected
by Brazil, Uruguay, San Salvador and
Argentina as the day for independence
celebrations

Of Supplies Helped
In Belleau Fight
Americans Went 100 Miles
to Reach Battle and
Saved the Day
BY Caspar Whitney
Especial Cable to The 7ribuns)


Copyright, 1918. by Tho Tribune Asaociation)
PARIS, July 6.--That in America our
people shall further and more fully ap-
prehend the rapidly developing compe-
tency of their army in France, another
chapter concerning the efficient work
Of the service of supplies should sup
plement the earlier one describing the
fine showing Of our soldiers in the
battle around Chateau Thierry, the par
ticulars of which | have been privi
legged to acquire but not to report in
detail
can say, however, that the Ameri-
can division which made such a per-
sistently gallant and successful attack
in capturing Belleau Wood had not
been expected to be wanted in that di-
rection. They were camped one hun
dred miles distant, where another cam
paign was planning, and where all sup
plies of munitions and food had been
sent and installed.
On few hours notice they were
called to Chateau Therry, and in an
equally short period they had respond
ed, not only by reaching the menaced
ground in season to help thwart the
Boche plan to drive west through this
important point, but by bringing up
ample provisions of munitions and ra-
tons, Notwithstanding the difficulties
of transportation, which were rendered
doubly embarrassing by the big move
ment on the road
This important, cheering, significant
addition to that battle is cabled not
only so that some folks during this
anxious time may know that their
hghtlng fathers, SONS and brothers are
making good, but also to give assurance
that the organization for active sup
port at the rear, so to speak, is also
making good.
AS the actions around Chateau
Ihlerry, in Belleau Wood, at Vaux and
IN the Forest de la Roche were the
first IN which this organization was
given real test, it is worth thus re-
cording that in the line and in the ser
vice behind the line. without which the
effectiveness of the troops is impossi-
Bile, the American effort is entitled to
confidence and praise
There is every reason for pride in
the results thus far achieved by our
men and for faith in the future of
America in France, as we'll in the

branch of the service which. plus train

Nothing in the way of an innovation
appears among the displays of frocks
for small girls. Plain cottons In light
colors with white cuffs and collars
make up the bulk of the stocks for
everyday wear, varied by reversal of
this order In white frocks with collars
and cuffs in colors. Old-fashioned and
simple fancy stitching-the cross
stitch, feather-stitch, outline-stitch and
cat-stitch among Others-with smock-
ing and simple embroidery, add their
pretty, quaint touch to these gay
dresses. French knots and small but
tons are among those present in the
little company of childish decorations
that loving fingers add to little clothes.
Plain or s1nall-shiped materials are
preferred over plaids for young chill
dren. Organdie inf white, with narrow
stripes in all the light colors are made
up for girls of three or more, with the
simplest sort Of finishing in bindings
of plain white. These are for her dress
up occasions. Swiss organdie, with
dainty embroidered edges and figures,
appears in the most pretentious of lit
tie frocks, like that shown in the cen
ter of the group above. At the left

waist with shocking and has white

Where the line lies that marks the
division between morning house
dresses and all-over aprons, it Is
hard matter to determine. They are
often very much alike. In house
dresses, however a much greater va
riety of materials is to be found and
also greater variety of design. The
prettiest ones are made of printed
voiles in stripes, plaids, checks and
plain patterns, usually finished with
collars and cuffs of organdie, dotted
swiss or machine-made embroidered
swiss. On white organdie collars and
cuffs narrow hand-crocheted edges and
Misunderstanding in the color that
dominates in the dress, have come in
as the most appropriate and prettiest
finish. Dimity, Powered lawn, printed
crepe, dotted swiss and, of course, cal
leo are >all available for these frocks.
Aprons are of the heavier cottons,
the ginghams, percales and calicoes III
colors and in plain white cottons.
They are made in the slip-over fash
ion, which appears to have strong

wool fabric may be made up like
the frock pictured of plain goods. The
bodice has the effect of a short jacket
which buttons under a fly at the front,
and the plain skirt-with fiat saddle
bag pockets applied-is gathered on
to it. The sleeves are three-quarters
length and the dress is worn over a
lawn or batiste blouse with small
turnover collar. The decoration is the
simplest sort of needlework trimming
merely silk floss in outline stitch
forming squares that border all edges
in the bodice and on the pockets.
Plaid and plain bingham or plaid
and plain serge will serve equally well
for the other dresses. In this model the
skirt is plated and set on to a plain
body. There are two narrow belts of
the plaid goods, the lower one ter
minating under a narrow box plat in
the front of the skirt and the upper
one fastening with a plain button.
The white pique collar and cuffs are
separate. Like the under blouse in
the other dress, they are the means
Of freshenipg up the frock and teach
ing the little ones the invaluable les
son of daintiness in appea rance.

following in all sorts of garments, and
in designs that fasten-by devious
ways-at the front. Instead of or
candle and other sheer goods, figure
or other heavy cottons are requisi-
toned for collars, cuffs and pipings.
They are all easy enough to put on
and they are neat and attractive. The
model shown in the picture is a good
example which will serve either as a
morning dress or an all-cver apron.
There has been a promising new de-
parture recently in cotton dresses for
morning wear. 1t is likely to be car
ried, by the high tide of the calico
vogue, to a great success. New one
piece morning frocks have been de-
signed in smart coat, or sweater coat,
and shirt effects, that seem to be eX-
actly fitted for summer outings. They
would not seem out of place on coun-
try roads or village streets, or in
COMP or bungalow.

From about her seventh year until
she is well along In the 'ffapper" stage
the growing girl usually requires some
special attention to clothe her becOm-
ingly. This is "the awkward age"
with some children, who are either too
angular or too chubby, while others
get through it without difficult lines
that must be softened. But for all
of them the straight line dress seems
to be the safe chOice-the thin little
girl and the fat little girl, with per-
haps a little variation in waist line,
wear it with equal success.
New frocks for school, and other
everyday wear this fall, have been pre-
scented, and two of them, shown above,
demonstrate how well the specialists
who design children's clothes have
managed the straight-line idea. These
two refined and sensible dresses are
pretty and no little girl will look awk-
ward in them. They will interest
the mother who must busy herself with
her daughters school frocks. Both
these models are adapted to cotton or
to wool materials, and both suggest
ways for remodeling and making

part Of patriotism to pass along from
grown-ups to the small fry during war
times-or any other times, for that
matter.

There are middies, smocks, sweaters
and coats for outdo0ring, that is, for all
sorts of sport and recreation wear.
And their comrades are skirts, bloom
ers or breeches, according to the sort
of service to be required of them. For
tennis and golf, skirts that will wash
again and again and come out as fresh
and unfaded as when they were new,
have not been rivaled as yet by bloom
ers or breeches-for some other sports,
skirts are a thing of the past. With
these washable skirts plain blouses are
worn and swagger little coats made of
summer flannel, serge or other ma
terials-and, of course, sweater or
sweater coats.
The coats the thing this year, that
has almost absorbed the attention of
those who specialize in designing sport
clothes. And it has been presented in
variety of new styles so that
when it is slipped on over
skirt and blouse it tones up the cos
tune, lending it neatness. Sleeveless
coats of satin and velvet were among
these new ideas and'have proved them
selves successful. Among new arrivals
the simple but swagger little coat
shown in the picture, need not fear
comparison with coats of more costly
goods-it has some points of advantage
over them. 1t is made of summer fan
mel in any Of the gay bright colors and

touched up with white in pearl buttons,
pique collar and arrowhead finish of
pockets.
Just the skirt for this coat is shown
with it. 1t is of heavy white pique
and fastens at the middle of the front
where a row of white pearl buttons fin
ishes the overlapped seam. There
are any number of sport hats that will
top off this practical and pretty out
fit. But its youthful wearer has chosen
tam of white corduroy, one of
the "blue devil" models that embodies
much dash. It's long tassel matches
the coat in color. Where something
more dignified is needed, for an older
woman, one of the cOconut braids in
white embroidered with yarn or silk
flowers against the crown, would make
a good choice, and there is the perennial
Panama with handsome band or scarf
that belongs to all summers.

Fur Used Less.

In the new suits for fall the absence
of fur trimmings is notable. This is
partly on account of the very high
prices of furs now and partly because
women are at present wearing all sorts
of long stoles, capes and coates of
fur over their suits and dresses. it is
thought this fad will carry into the
coming fall and winter, and now in
these days of thought for conserva-
ton of materials, all these little items
are considered by the manufacturer.
