If any objection can be urged at the
present moment against the low
backed dress now fashionable it is
not on the score OF injury to health.
On the contrary, no better design
could be chosen for the dress Of the
upper part Of this body than one
which gives free play to the muscles
of the neck and shoulders snd permits
free circulation OF the blood to and
from tie head.
Women do not catch colds or get
pneumonia from exposing the chest
and back. even in much chillier
weather than we have at present.
This fallacy has been exploded long
ago. LooSeness Of the garments
everywhere is what doctors have AL
ways been calling for. and If women
who find benefit from this fashion in
the region OF the shoulders will use
their reasoning powers and loosen the
coverings of the waist, the feet and
the hands they will not only feel in
better health and lighter spirits. but
they will find a marked increase OF
their general beauty.
From tight neck and shoulder wear
many evils follow. What good results
may be expected from the low-backed
dress? Firstly, it will stimulate WON
en- to develop their arms and Shout
ders, and, by allowing q freer car.
rage of the head, will give them
moro grace and dignity.

Senate D. c. Committee
Will Take Action When
2 Commissioners Ask

Members of the Senate committee on
form; lily today the public disorders
which rave prevailed in this city for
the pa. few days, but could not see
ground for action by the committee in
any way. Maj. Pullman called up
early in the morning to say that he
was at the disposal of the committee
If his presence was desired, but he had
no suggestions to make.
Senator Sherman, chairman of the
committee, regards the situation as de-
manding prompt and vigorous action
by the authorities to forestall a posi-
bic serious outbreak. He thinks the
possibly grave trouble unless the au-
thorities exert a strong hand at this
time to prevent it,
Senator Sherman and other sena-
tors concur in the opinion that it
would be an unspeakable disgrace if
a serious clash should occur at the
National Capital, and the hope was
expressed that all citizens will join
in assisting in keeping the peace and
preventing trouble.
The informal discussion in the COM
mittee developed the concurrence of
opinion that no action should be
taken by the committee until request
ed by the Commissioners. If the Dis
trict Commissioners desire assistance
from Congress the committee will
take under prompt Amusement any
recommendations they may make.
While the committee was in ses-
sion Representative Reed Of West
Virginia, who is q member of the
House District committee, came in to
ascertain if any action was contem-
plated by the committee. He said
the House committee was not in ses-
I.r1 fn1n
mittee should propose any resolution
requiring prompt action. he felt sure
the House committee would assemble
and act concurrently.

Tho State Department has made
public portions of the new Mexican
mining law Of interest to Americans
owning mining interests in Mexico
and which went into effect July /.
TIE new law brings together in a
single measure all the various min
ing DEGREES issued by President Car
rama
The transitory articles provide that
all penalties due on mining proper
ties prior to the date of the decree,
June 81. 1919. are Cancelled, but that

Provisions are made for the Payment

piled with the titles to the properties
will be forfeited to the state.
Tho tax rates applied to the mining
industry are graduated so that the
larger the property the heavier the
tax proportionately. This is done, it
is said, to discourage the holding of
large properties by Individual
operators or companies. similar to the
purpose Of the new agrarian law OF
the country.
