JAPS NOT TO SHUT
IMMIGRANT ROAD
Refuse to Make Further Agree
ment Regarding Problem.

TOXIC, Dec. 3.-There is absolutely
no possibility Of Japan entering into
any further formal agreement barring
immigration to the United States than
is now in effect In the ''gentlemen's agree
ment"
Repeated reports from America to the
effect that a clause in the new treaty
under discussion in Washington has been
practically completed by which Japan
agrees to stop all immigration to the
United States, elected the information
from official sources today, that there
is no possibility Of a further formal
agreement on immigration.
Two reasons were given for Japan's
refusal to enter into a formal agree
ment barring immigration.
1t was declared that should Japan en-
ter into such a treaty arrangement with
the United States, the opportunity would
be seized by Canada and Australia to
make similar demands as anti-Japnese
agitation is strongin both those coun-
tries Austria particularly it is be-
heved, would demand a similar agree
ment.
= As the second reason it was pointed
out that for the Japanese government
to enter into such an agreement would
mean the self infection of slur on the
Japanese race"

CATCHY ARRAY OF RIBBONS
Striking New Decorations Include
Metallic Background - Strong
Colors Are in Evidence.

Ribbon counters these days are fas-
der whether the ribbon people have n
right to claim some of the beautiful
reels OF silken goods that they call
ribbon. You would think that If you
were the people that had the silk
goods counter in the store you would
want TO put up Il fight To have IN
your department some of those Won
derful textiles that are kept on the
ribbon counter. Sometimes they are
almost half n yard wide. They are
used often not as ribbons are, but rs
silk by the yard is used, to cut up
into w~aistcoats, gilets, cuffs, collars
and other trimmings of the frock.
Most Of the most striking Of these
new ribbons have n metallic back
ground that is woven I'm with brilliant
| colored silk that goes TO make the de-
sign OF the ribbon. They are the
most gorgeous sort Of brocade. one
Of these ribbons shows n design OF
color and metal that goes to Egypt
for its inspiration. There is a gor-
geous scarab and above the conven-
tional rising sun Of Egypt with the
usual lotus flower design at the sides
Then there is a ribbon showing a CON
~ventionalized parrot done in the most
gorgeous parrot shades combined with
gold. There are others that show a
curious Chinese design which rs you
look at ii must have been inspired by
the four queens of the deck of cards
Only it is entirely Chinese in eXecu-
ton and c%oloring.
These ribbons are very useful for
making gilets, and dreSSmakers are
making use Of them to n great extent.
For evening gowns they have Il wide
usefulness. You know girdles have
come To the fore and sometimes these
ribbons are used {, form into n loose,
sloppy girdle that is caught around
the waist and hips.
Very narrow ribbons are also being
used for g,rdle purposes. THESE are
made by taking about two and II half
Yards of ribb0n about q half inch wide,
| usually picot edged. Sometimes there
are three lengths all the same color,

rose. perhaps. These three strands
are brought loosely around the Eirdie
line on top of the frOck and then tied
in a bow or crossed in Il knot at the
left front, leaving the ends to hang
loosely at the left side. Young girls
are buying these ribbons TO make into
g,rdles to add to their blue serge or
black silk frOckS.

The small shapes are OF many styles.
The cloche, which has been almost n
uniform shape in Paris, is frequently
seen. The turban in some form or an
other is always liked and is made Of
various materials. The small hat with
narrow brim rolling sharply up against
the crown all around. or at the side,
is another good model.
The tam-o-shanter is still much in

and of production and requirements
during the war, for the information of

statements were for the use of the de.

Crop-productiOn programs which were
recommended. Other compilations
were made for the confidential use of
