Disorders Abating, Minister
of Interior Is Told in Gov
erhors' Reports.
PROTEST By NEWSPAPERS

TOXIC. Friday. August 1s.-The
newspapers have been prohibited from
printing reports of the progress Of the
rice riots. and there is an absence OF
news from the provinces. A statement
issued today by Minister of the In
terror Mizuno says that the governors
have assured the ministry that the
disorders are abating steadily.
The organization of proprietors and
editors of newspapers has adopted
resolution declaring that the prohibi-
tion against news Of the riots is An
unprecedented and arbitrary inter-
ference with the right of free speech
as granted by the constitution. They
demand a cancellation of the order.
The constitutional party declares tlat
the order of the government is natm

fecting the people. ...
1t is the general impression mere
that the rice question has become
political
Troops Are Called Out.
TOXIC, Tuesday. August 13.-The
food disturbances are increasing In
violence. At Osaka during demon
several tramways were forceo 10
suspend service after several passen-
gers had been wounded. Troops. In
cluding cavalry, were called out to
suppress the rioting and twenty-five
policemen and many rioters were hurt.
Five hundred persons were arrested.
In outlying towns the people attacked
the police with bamboo spears.
The disturbances at Kobe resulted
in the burning of great rice ware
house and several factories and houses
and large number of rice stores.
The seriousness of the situation led
to a special meeting of the cabinet,
which decided to appropriate $5.000.0 600
for purchasing stores of rice for dis
tribution among the people at a
moderate price. The emperor, moved
by the distress. has contributed $780,
900 yen to the national rice fund.
Street cars are being utilized in Toxic
by soldiders. who distribute rice in dis
tricts where the suffering is reported.
Several mil1onaires have contributed
100000 each to purchase rice for the
poor. The Mitsui and the Iwaslii fam
lilies have each contributed $500.000 to
this fund. There Is an abundance OF
rice in the empire, but 1t is held in stor-
age by farmers and brokers' This GOV
ernment's aim is to force tho rice mar.
ket, but it has avoided UP to this time
regulating the price, which, however,
has fallen.

The Red Cross, the American Fund
for French Wounded, and other war
relief societies are cooperating in
France to care for the French and Bel
gian women who are now being driven
back into their own countries after
their deportation into Germany. 1t
is reported that they are in rags and
destitute, and the relief societies are
doing all they can to fit them out with
the bare necessities and decencies Of
life. The Chicago Tribune makes the
following appeal:
"To give the required help the
American Fund for French Wounded,
go East Washington street, Chicago,
has devised a Martha Washington kit.
The kits are to be sent at once to
France, and each refugee as she makes
her yea way back to her beloved
land is to be given one of them. The
directions for these kits follow:
"The cost of these kits is to be kept
within 81. One yard of shifting will
make the bag. The width of the goods
makes the length of the bag. 1t is run
up on the machine. The bag is French
scanned with the last ear on the out
side all the way around. Turn in the
bag at the top two inches, with n
inch heading-and an inch casing for
the tape. There is a double draw
string of tape. When the bag is pack
ed the free end is neatly doubled
over and pinned down with two safety
pins at the back, making it compact
and safe for shipment.
"The kit contains the following arti-
cles, some of which may be made at
home or purchased as the furnisher
of the kit desires:
zone canton flannel nightgown.
"One heavy chemise.
some pair of drawers.
"One pair of black stockings and one

tons, n and one-half yards of tape,
five needles, hairpins, plain pins. And
in the housewife is a card stating
that this is a Martha Washington kit
sent in memory of Mrs. Washington,
who was a friend of Lafayette.
"In each kit a stamped, addressed
envelope is put so that the n who
receives the gift may acknowledge ii
to the sender. A personal word OF
cheer and hope and friendliness may
be inclosed, too, if the sender wishes"

CoIIarIess and ButtonIess.

An unusual blouse is made Of pale
blue handkerchief linen, with a good
deal of inch-wide flet insertion used
for trimming, says Women's Work,
The embroidery is placed upon the
lace itself-the outline of the design
being accumulated by a fine thread of
blue matching the linen in color. This
blouse is collarless and is a slip over
of the sort that fastens over the shout
ders. But instead of buttons, the wear
err must lace herself into this blouse
by means of narrow black velvet rib
bons. The sleeves are cut upon a full
bishop pattern, and the tight cuffs are
laced at the outer edge by the same
narrow black velvet.

We may inaugurate our spring out
fitting as we will-usually 1t begins
with the purchase of a coat for gen.
eral wear-but we cannot finish with
out acquiring this mainstay of the
wardrobe. For three seasons cloths
and colors have made the streets more
cheerful; they have been beautiful
enough to tempt extravaganza. There
has been a generous s%prinkling of gay
er colors among the dark grays and
blues and browns that seem to be
so closely associated with the thought
of utility clothes in the minds Of most
people.
The spring coats are privileged to
use enough wooden stuffs to make
them anywhere from 45 to 4S inches
long, and comfortably full at the bot
tom. nevertheless the, best models are
those that follow the straight and mar
row path of wool conservation. Col
lars are not as large as they were, al
though there are many models with
convertible collars that may be worn
close up about the throat. Over-col-
lars of broeaded or embroidered silk or
novelty weaves in cotton are a means
for securing variety. Belts are mar
row and plain. Small coiiars end
ing in scarf ends or throws for the
neck, which may be of the same cloth
as the coat or of a different material,
are among the spring innovations.

Simple Blouses.

Among the newest assortment OF
blouses are some from Paris which in
dictate a marked preference for fine
materials and simple lines.
There are models made of handkPr-
chief linen whose only trimming is Ia
hand fagoting; others are delicately
trimmed with drawn work or have in
sets of real flet lace.
The new high collar is featured, al
though in Difference to the wishes OF
many American women Paris has SEM
blouses that have the familiar V mech
with the sailor or round collar.

Gloves Have stran WRISTS.

A noticeable feature of the current
demand is the tendency toward q
larger use Of strap wrist or Biarrits
effects, says the Dry Goods Econom
list. This, no doubt, is due more o.
less to the practical nature of suct
styles, making them suitable for veal
with the tailored effects in suits and
dresses which are now the vogue
Moreover, the Biarritz idea, especially
in soft gauntlet design, conforms
readily to any expression Of a military
note.
Five Mile Beach weekly journal., 1918-06-07

in good grades, are the materials used.
Some models feature a combination
of silk and wool, with wide landings
of wool on silk skirts or inlays of silk.
But women will hardly consider it eco
nomical to buy utility coats of any
thing less hardy than reliable wooden
weaveS.
Two tasteful spring coats of wool
velours are shown in the illustration,
They portray the styles and are made
In some of the novelty as well as sta
pie colors. Khaki, Copenhagen, Pc
king, light tan, raspberry, enliven the
navy, black, clay and taupe Of the

"Our five-year-old son Paul caught a

his lungs and he had terrible coughing
spells. We were greatly worried about
him as the medicine we gave him did
not help him in the least. A neighbor
