Taking it for granted that you will immediately like this dress, the thing that would trouble you is to know why you like it. You can't pos- slbly attach your liking to the trim mings, for there arc none. It must Dc the daintiness of absolute simplic- ity that wins you. It is made of white corduroy cut in the bolero cf- feet in the back and tight in front by means of a sash of the same material.

 Gratis, Mayor Explains to Public. Mrs. Philias Rouillard of Beatty street, whose son, James, was re- gently killed somewhere in France" with the American EXpeditionary Forces, has received a letter from an alleged firm in Washington offering to collect for her any claims she may have against the government for war insurance on a 10 per cent fee basis. Mrs. ROuillard has taken this letter to the mayor and investigation shows that the offer made by the Washing ton firm is to do only that which the War Bureau and the Red Cross so ciety volunteers to do for nothing.
 Speaking of this today the mayor said it is simply money scheme on the part of the promo tors. who secure casualty lists and then induce the relatives to let them do their collecting and obtain a com mission.
 Feeling that there is a strong prob ability that there may be additional casualties among the New Britain boys in the near future, Mayor Quig- ley said he wanted to advise the pub lie against engaging the services of such agencies, explaining that the American Red Cross and the War Bureau, as part of their duties, Will attend to such matters for relatives and without additional charge.

 The markets tone remained rather mixed throughout the morning, steels coppers, oils and motors refiecting constant pressure. Marine preferred strengthened and Atlantic Gulf re- covered from it's early decline, like wise St. Paul preferred but other representative issues showed no defin- ite trend A few specialties, includ- ing Mexican Petroleum and Corn Pro- ducts, suggested further pool activity.

'FULLER'S BARNACLE
 LETTER DENOUNCED
Rep. Dies Goes at Bay State Man
 Hammer and Tongs

] Washington Feb. 2s-Represcnta- tive Martin Dies (Texas,) incensed at ] the criticism of congress contained in
 the letter of Representative Alvan T ] Fuller (Mass,) in resigning from what 1 ne termed as a "useless committed TOT lhoTe than an hour yesterday y 1 forced Mir. Fuller to listen to the ] most Vltrlolic arraignment any mem l Der of congress has ever been com- pelled to hear.
 In addition to rcsenting the state - 1 mcnt by Mir Fuller that half the com 1 m1ttccs of the house are "useless'' MT. Dies who once headed such a committee himself, made violent ob- lection to the assertion In MT. Fuller $ letter of resignation to the general eftect that congress is badly organ lzed, inefficient and a costly "barnacle on the ship of state.''
 The phrase in the Fuller letter de- ciaring that the majority of the house lnstad of being really busy are most concerned in telling stories and "prac- uslng to sec who can spit the fur thest' and the reference to the house as q barnacle clicited this from the Texan:
 Here arc being determined the Welghtiest questions of state, here arc being determined questions affecting the destinies of 100,0O0,OOO people, and if it is true that the people have fallen to such a state of decadence of citizenship that they have sent un- worthy, lazy, barnacleS to congress to represent them then there is cause for despair by those who seek the per- petuity of the republic'
 MT. Dies demanded what MT. Fuller had contributed and what qualifications he possessed that he sat in judgment on Congress. "It must be somo colossal intellect" he said;
 ''it must be some man deeply learned in the history and philosophy of the
 world; it must be some man who has given the world a token of his prowess who essays to dub the Con gress of the United States a lot of barnacleS and spitters."
 Representative Stevens (S. O. of the committee on expenditures in the interior department, from which MT. Fuller resigned because he thought it "useless," angrily said that the state ment that the committee had had DO meeting this year was wrong. MT. Fuller then explained that he had not stated no meeting had been held, but that only one meeting and that "a "srn noke talk was called.
 Referring to the fact that MT. Fuller has turned his congressional pay back into the treaSury-Mr Fuller has done this since he came to Washington and has paid his secre- tary and clerk hire out of his own pocket-Mr. Dies said that probably MT. Fuller felt that he had done nothing to earn it.
 MT. Fuller, i'll at ease, said Mr. Dies and other members of the house, had "mangled'' his letter of resignation from the alleged 'useless' committee. He asserted that he had intended his barnaclc reference to apply to the "useless'' committees mentioned earlier.
 A bombardment of questions came from all sides and despite the fact that the house had granted him all the time he desired in the midst of the confusion MT. Fuller notified the house he had nothing more to say.
