at the front and little flaring at the
sides and back. In this particular
suit a deep cape collar replaces the
small turnover that is SO youthful,
worn with tie Of silk, for the young
er girls. But a smaller collar would
not admit an inlay of taffeta such as
finishes this one. The braid on the
sleeves is put on in rows but not in
straight lines and curved inset of
taffeta is placed above it. The sleeves
are especially good.
Dark blue serge makes the chic
suit with bloused coat, at the right
of the picture. Narrow braid in two
rows finishes the collar, the sleeves,
and the skirt of the blouse. Silk cord
and round buttons account for the fas-
tening in the best way and form fin
ish for the close-fitting sleeves. The
collar in this suit Is the style best
liked for girls

Expert City Planning.

=
The first essential in advancing city
planning everywhere is to get a. def.
mite plan, then make it known in
order to get the necessary legislation
and financial support to put it through,
Cities should make a plan and de
velop it piecemeal. That is, 1t should
be like a building with solid founda-
tion with five or six stories on it.
but solid enough to carry 20 stories.
The plan should be complete, but
need not all be presented at once, nor
should the efforts in carrying it out
be sporadic or haphazard. An author
ity recently urged the securing of ex-
pert talent to direct city planning for
the interest Of oil, and not for classi
of citizens.

Governments Campaign
Against High Costs
Meeting With Definite Prog
ress Is Belief of Atty
Gen. Palmer.

Washington, Aug 2S.-Belief that
definite progress is being made in the
governments campaign against the
high cost of living is expressed by
Atty. Gen. Palmer in announcing last
night that the department of justice
is meeting with success in obtaining
from shoe manufacturers promises as
to fixing a maximum price on shoes.
Indications are that slight down
ward trend in prices already has set
iii. although it is not sufficient to be
reflected in spot purchases in retail
markets. Mr.. Palmer declared that,
If given a fair chance, efforts of the
government to squeeze the imitation
out of prices soon will show sub
stantial results. Expressing satisfac-
tion with the success so far attained,
the encouragement said he believes
cumulative results will follow enact
ment by congress of amendments to
the food control law providing Grim
lnal penalties for protiteers and
hoarders. Efforts of retail merchants
to stimulate buying by predicting
higher prices next season on cloth
ing and other nonperishable articles
were condemned by Mr.. Palmer, who
warned the public not to be
stampeded by this propaganda into a
buying hysteria." Extensive pur-
chasing now, he said. would make
such predictions come true.

SELL FOOD AT
], MARKETHOUSE
Such Is Present Intention OF
y. Board Of City Com.
misSioners.
WASSMAN is BACK HOME
Grocers May Be Allowed to
Handle Government Sup
plies Also.

Mayor A. w. Chambllss and Com
missioner Emil Wassman have not
agreed on any particular plan for the
distribution of the two cars of gov
ernment food purchased in Atlanta
by Commissioner Wassman, and
which will arrive in Chattanooga Sat-
urday or Sunday.
Commissioner Wassman suggests
placing the goods on sale at the
markethouse in the space along the
leadway running front Of the main
entrance; other members of the board
state their approval of the plan. II
is also probable that it will be dis
tributed through a number of leading
glocers, but the markethouse plan
seems to have preference.
Commissioner Wassman states that
the goods ordered are of good quality,
and If they prove popular more car
ad lots will be ordered from time
10 time as needed. The commissioner
stated Thursday that he expected
fully 1000 people to be on hand when
the sale opens either Monday or
Tuesday morning.
Inquiries concerning the sale were
land indications were that the entire
| lot would be solt out in two or three
days.
The goods will be sold at slight
increase over cost in order to insure
boss from freight, carriage and hand
ping.
Postoffice Continues.
Sales at the Postofice continue all
hhs week. Thursday Postmaster
Howell had on display in the lobby
|of the federal building a quantity of
snl. articles now received by the post

thc quality of the bacon and other
foodstuffs and pronounced them bet
Ter than could be found on the local
market.
The postoffice has not as yet re-
6eived all of its orders placed with
the zone supply officer at Atlanta,
knd for that reason orders will not
be filled for the. next day or so. Post
master Howell states he expects to

BALKAN SNARL
CENTER OF STAGE
American Delegates Not Sure
They Are Needed to Help
Settle ImbrogIio.
MAY COME HOME SOON
olestion of Whether They Do
r SO or Remain in France
Put Up to President.

Paris, Aug. 2s,-The American
peace delegation, headed by Frank
L. Polk, is preparing to ask Presi-
dent Wilson whether it is worth their
while to remain in Paris attempting
to solve the problems Of southeast :
earn Europe, 1t was learned here to-
day.
Upon the presidents reply will de-
termine whether the Americans re-
main here trying to untangle the
complicated Balkan snarl or whether
they return to Washington, leaving
the European powers to settle the
imbroglio which has arisen as a
result of the Rumanians entering
into Budapest.
The conference has several times
warned Rumania against looting the
Hungarian capital, but at latest ad-
vices the Rumanian soldiers were
still removing all the material they
could carry away. II is declared in
some quarters that there is no doubt
that Rumana's righteousness is due
to some extent to encouragement she
has received from her European al
lies.
In consequence of the situation
that has arisen there is serious talk
at the Hotel Crillon that the Amer
leans may pack up their belongings
and go home.

SERBIA SEEKS TO

where in Montenegro.
Revolution General.

London, Aug. 28.-Fiehtine has
broken out everywhere in Montenegro
and the whole country is in state
of revolution, according to news re-
celved here. The SerbIans are using
strong measures in an attempt to
suppress the uprising.
I'VE seem to be in for reerudes-
cence of the Balkan trouble was a
statement made to the Associated
Press today from an authoritative
source.
The Monteneerins have cut the
railways between Vrhazzar and
Antivari, on the coast
The Serbians are receiving rein
forcements, but are not me setting with
success in their efforts to put down
the revolutionary movement, accord
the Montenegrin ns'tfonaf~ 'spfffT as
thoroughly aroused and the animoslty
Of the people against the Serbsns
Increasing.
The uprising in Montenegro seems
likely to bring to a head the long
smoldering differences between the
Montenegrin supporters of former
King Nicholas and the faction adher-
to the plan for the incorporation of
Montenegro in the Jugo- -Slav state.
King Nicholas has never recognized
the validity of the act of the Monte
negrin assembly last winter in de-
posing him and has continued to
maintain the old royal Montenegrin
government with its seat in su-
burb of Paris. Serbia is insistent
upon the adhesion Of Montenegro to
Jugo- SlaVia and claims that a ma
jority of the Montenegrins favor the
union. The contention of the ma
tionalist party in Montenegro, how
ever, is that the Montenegrin ma
tional assembly has been packed"
with pro- -Serbians, making the action
of that body in voting last April for
adhension to the Jugo- Slav state not
truly representative of Montenegrin
opinion.
Disorders broke out in Montenegro
early in July against what was
Serbian military oc
and guerrilla warfare was
reported to be reviving in the noun
