a choice between wool jersey, cord de laine, serge or velours, for these are the predominating materials for tail 1eurs. One-piece frocks for general wear are limited almost exclusively to tricotine, tricolette and jersey. More formal designs, of course, are in satin, silk and fabrics that drape gracefully and feature a 1ustrous sur face.
 Charming and appropriate for any occasion is a design in cord de laine, color dark brown. There is distinc- tion in every line of the blouse with open front and vest of tucked fibre silk. A new feature of decoration is patch pockets on the vest. Below the belt, which Is slipped through openings in the underarm seams are buttons on either side of the front. These are of self-material and ap- pear also on the plain one-piece sleeV- es. Developed in plain br oadcloth this blouse could be trimmed with braid stitched on the belt and at the lower corners of the front.
 Nothing more original could be de sired than a frock of navy tricotine with vestee of embroidered batiste. The neckline of the vest is round and

For the star like motifs one may use cut-work, outline or raised satin stitches, with sysIets for the dots, French knots or raised satin stitches. The scallops, of course, are buttonholed and lend themselves to the least variety of treatment. Good linen should be used for the centerpiece. The cotton may be in colors or all-white.

United States Rubber.

The bull clique which has been trying
for considerable time TO get in its handi-
work in United States Rubber seized
yesterday a golden opportunity just be-
fore the close and, on a heavy turnover
of stock. pushed it to a new high at
1917. All through the day the stock
had been dormant around 1928 and its
one claim to attention was in the man
ner in which 1t withstood successive
raids which depressed the general list
time and again. Suddenly, about half
an hour before the final bell, these oper-
ators took Rubber in hand and gave it
whirl which made market observers
dizzy. The short interest In the stock,
which has been reported as tremendous,
saw the handwriting on the wall and
started to cover. But It was not until
1891 had been reached that those in
absolute control of the Rubber market
eased off and let the price drop back to
1873. at which II closed with a net gain
of more than 7 points. 1t has been re-
ported for considerable time that big
pool in this stock was formed. but be-
cause Of adverse market conditions II
was unable to get good Roadway. One
of the brakes on their operation was
said to be a large block of stock held
over their heads. but IL was reported
yesterday that they had finally sue
ceeded in placing this block outside the
danger mark and proceeded at once to
get down to brass taclSs. The tremend-
Gus earnings which United States Rub
Der and other rubber and tire companies
are making are said to be the basis OF
the pool.

Any stock which advances in the face
of an irregular market, as was yester-
days, is likely TO call sharp attention to
itself. This was true of stocks of the
sugar group, which largely disregarded
factors which unsettled the list as a
whole and campaigned forward on their
own responsibility. Many people who
have made n study of sugar stocks be-
lleve that they have not discounted
profits that probably they will roll up
this year. and that. taking the market
as a whole. they are selling rather out
of line. The immediate consideration
back OF the move in the sugars, OF
course. was the advance in the price OF
Cuba raws which win tend naturally to
increase sugar concerns profits. Cuban
American Sugar was the bright particu-
Jar star Of the group. and advanced 16
points, selling within bare fraction of
400. Punta Allegro gained az points,
Cuba Cane and American Sugar closed
the day with net losses after touching
the higher levels.

GOSSIP OF WALL STREET.
A Nervou. Market.

Yesterdays market displayed much
the attitude Of man sitting outside Of

and harboring the hope that the dentist
discover that his aching tooth does not
need dentistry. It was plainly nervous
and, like some toothaches. continually
shifted. Erratic money rates. labor I'M
rest with the miners strike in the fore
ground and some palpable cases of stock
imitation I'm the market itself, are giving
professionals something to think about.
On the other hand, there surely Is to be
considered the manner In which many
issues snapped back yesterday after re-
actions. the apparent ease with which
some of the specialties were run up and
the broad support Of the public which has
been attracted to Wall Street by rising
prices. Professional forecasts are di-
vided. Some of the largest firms are ad-
vising their customers to take profits and
sit steady in the boat on the theory tina,

Action of the Senate in passing

1t could not be said that the market
made much response to those new fac

The Coal strike.

What effect would the coal strike,
should Il begin tomorrow, have on
the stock market? One can get dozen
answers in the Wall Street district to
that question, but the one most fire.
quently heard Is that the history Of the
stock market demonstrates that 1t Is an
Improbable venture to sell stocks on
strike news and that the market prob
ably win pay more attention to the news
of the Governments attitude toward the
strike than 1t viii to the strike itself
A large house ventured yesterday belief
that should a coal strike occur and as
sumo wide proportions. 1t would be
counted as n favorable factor in the
fuel oil stock group, and scarcity of coal
or diminution of the present supply
probably give oil, as q fuel, the oppor-
tunity to make long Strides toward the
popularity with manufacturers and other
large fuel users for which It is striving.
In this connection It has been rumored
for several weeks In the financial dis
trict. but has never been confirmed. that
the Standard OIL Company has under
consideration plan to lay a network of
oil pipes underneath New York city to
serve many business interests said to be
planning to change their power pro-
ducers from coal to oil burners.
