PARIS, June 10.-Reports of the
various allied commissions regarding
German counter proposals were be-
fore the big four today.
Some of the reports, it was learned,
are ready to be incorporated in the
allied reply-expected to be submit
ted Friday-while others probably
will result IN further discussion. In
this category are the questions Of a
fixed sum for reparations and early
admission of Germany to the league
Of nations.
A lively debate on the latter was
anticipated. The British and Ameri-
cans, It was understood, favor
earliest possible admission of the
Germans, the French hotly oppose 1t.
The big four also was expected to
devote some time to solution Of the
problem presented by the three cor
nered warfare in which the Rumani-
ans, Czechs and Hungarians figure.
The allies are reported hare dis.
patched an ultfmatum to the Hun
garian soviet government. demanding
1t cease its attacks on the Czechs.
The Adriatic question which has
been one Of the hardest nuts for the
peace commission to crack and which
resulted in temporary withdrawal Of
the italian delegates, Is now reported
to have been virtually settled. The
United Press is able to outline this
plan. 1t follows:
1-Fiume will be made free city.
under protection of the league of
nations, together with considerable
surrounding territory, which becomes
free state.
2 2-sebinco will go to the Jugo-
Slavs
3-Zara will become a free city
under Italian control.
4-Certain Adriatic islands adia-
cent to the Jugo-Slav coast will be
awarded to Italy.
5-A plebiscite win be held In five
years to determine whether the
people Of Fiume and the surrounding
free territory desire to remain under
the league of nations or become sub
ject to either the Italians or the
Jugo-Slavs.
Eleven of the commissions have
turned in their final reports. while
five others-studving Germany's east
ern frontiers, Belgium's claims, the
Schleswig question and various
phases OF the economic terms-are
practically complete

Real alarm is now being manifest

possibility Of movements similar to
the establishment Of the Rhineland
republic frustrating plans for a
strong centralized government. One
leader told the correspondent that
Prussia is agreeable to having states
on the American plan, but does not
want to have the states become en-
tirely independent and unprotected.

NARROW SKIRT, TUNIC BLOUSE
Substitute for TailIeur Promises to Be One of Seasons Most Popular
 Garments.

As a compromise between the coat suit and the slim froCk which many women choose for autumn street wear there is costume which may soon be overriddcn by popularity. It consists of a narrow skirt and Il tunic blouse that falls below the hips and Is loose ly girded with n m0naStic cord. The blouse has no visible fastening. It ap- parently does not open. In truth some of them do not open.
 They slip over the head and adjust themselves with the careleSsneS of a peasants smock. If they were tightly banded at the waistllnc with yards of brilliant material they would be defi- nitely Arabian and quite brilliant in effect. They do not permit a girdle to touch them.
 They have q monks cord carelessly twined below the waiStline, knotted and dropped in tasselled ends at front or side.

EXTRA WARM EVENING WRAPS
Favored Garment Folds Around Figure and Has Double Thickness
 Over Chest.

Certain economists buy semiform- al frock that will serve for gay hours between four and twelve D. m. with its own coat, which relieves them from the purchase of an extra evening coat, or keeps the one they possess for use for special occasions. This Is after all, an extravagant trick, the critics say, for one warm long coat should serve.
 The wrap of the hour is warm and heavy. It is no longer of chiffon nor does 1t show itself in cape form. It folds around the figure and has a double thickness over the chest. Furs are heaped on it, and, often, there is Il return to the fashions of Charles II In the loose undersleeve of fur that comes out from the wide upper sleeve. This idea, by tiIe way, is carried out in few street clothes, and 1t catches the fancy of those who abominate the hiatus between the edge of flaring sleeve and the hand.
 And such sleeves are warm. They act like padded muff.

GOWNS AND HATS OF WHITE
This Winter, Velvet to Figure Prominently.

White Is to have n vogue this winter. Long white coats are very smart in decd. So much Is white to be in evil dcnCe this season that smart millincrS are bringing out many hats of white velvet, or Ut least showing some trim there. After one has left youth far behind white needs most Sklllful treat mcnt to be worn hcComingly. It is all ways best to subduc it wherever pos siblc with some beading or overdrap- ing of latticcd effect.
 Nothing could be prettler than the new dinner. gowns of white velvet. They are unrelieycd by any sort of or nument. Now that wcll-dresSed wom- cn do not wear jcwelry of any sort, there Is not even Il gleaming diamond permitted to be worn with these dead white froCks. No sleeves, no COrSage decorations and no sashcs appear. One can readily see that only the freshness of youth and the most pronounced beauty can successfully carry off white velvet frock. They may be summed up in the brief verdict Beau tiful-at least to behold.
 Along with the vogue of white Is that for n combination of black and white, always much favored, but again fashion demanding skillful treatment to be successful.
