CLOTHING GOING HIGHER.
Suits Selling for $50 Now Will Be So
In the Spring.

CHICAGO, Dec. n.-Clothing prices
will continue upward next Spring,
Charles Wry, secretary of the national
association of retail elothiers, announced
today. The causes of high prices are be-
yond the control of the retail dealers, he
declared, but members of the association
are preparing to hold further price ad-
yances to a minimum at the sacrifice OF
their own profits. Popular priced suits
which sold before the war at $25 and
now retail at $50 will bring $50 or more
next Spring, Wry said.

Movement to Draw English
. Speaking Peoples Together.
First Branch Of Union to BE Estab

Philadelphia.

WashlngtOn.-It liz the general feel
ing that the foundation on which the
proposed League of Nations must be
built is a complete understanding and
friendly cooperation between the two
great English-Apeaking peoples; that
on the Americans and the British will
fall largely the task of making the
world safe for democracy. Realizing
this, a group OF Americans and Brit
ishers have started movement to
draw the English-speaking peoples Of
the world closer together In the bond
of cOmradeship and have organized
the English-Spenking Union.
The. aim of the union is, briefly. to
make the English-speakink peoples Of
the world better known to each other,
whether they be Americans, Austria
iians Canadians. New Zealanders.
South Africans. Newfountilanders or
the inhabitants Of the British isles
and their dependencies. 1t does not
aim at formal alliances. nor is It CON
cerned with the relationship of govern
ments; II Is solely and simply a good
fellowship movement among the peo-
pie ''who speak the tongue that Shake
speare spake."
The aim Of the promoters, American
and British. is that no citizen Of the
English speaking world should ever
feel lonely again after the war. that no
American visiting the old country
should ever want friend. and that no
Britisher should ever want one in the
great republic. They plan to make
these peoples better known to each
other in various ways-by the iEter-
change Of visits. by correspondence, by
the printed word. by lectures. by an

London.-Taking tremendous risks,
the British air force camera men
played to perfection In the war the
part Of the spy in the enemy's camp.
A month or 80 after our first very
sttenuated and ill-equipped flying
squadron had gone over to France
with the "Old Contemptibles," an OBJ
server flying one sunny day over the
enemy lipes took with him a much
cherished pocket camera and exposed
some films over the enemy's ground be-
meath him.
He wanted them only to send home
to his people as souvenirs. When they
were developed he found they formed
an excellent pictorial map Of the
Boche front lines.
Then 1t was that Lieutenant Colonel
Moore -Brabazon, the father" and or
ganizer Of the Photographic section OF
the Royal Air force. realized the enor-
nous possibilities Of air photographs
as an aid to the intelligence staff.
He began to agitate for permission
to carry on the work Of photogrnphing
the Gelman activities from the air.

be Of first-rate value. Colonel Moore
