Black Honeymoon
Prepared by Bride
AS a Test of Love

Paris, Oct. 20.LCalling marriage
"a tragedy for which the mind must
be adequately prepared" Germaine
de la Bodessiere. the dashing French
artist, has designed a black apart
ment in which she and her pros
pective husband will spend their
honeymoon before leaving for their
villa in the south of France.
The nine rooms of the apartment
are covered with black; some with
black velvet, others with satin,
others with linen or wallpaper. Cur
tains and portieres are black, black
is the furniture, black the bed,
black the sheets and black the ta-
bleware, while the bath tub is a
huge block of black marble.
The brides trousseau is a mass
of black chiffon and Chantilly lace.
Onyx is the only stone used in her
jewelry, while she has sent notes
written with white ink on black
paper informing her friends that
only black-cla persons will be re-
ceived during the trying" period.
Mile. de la Bodessiere's contention
is that If her husband is able to
stand the strain of a black honey
moon he will face undauntedly the
prospects of a brilliant future.

Contrary to statements by officials

Admiral Knapp's opinion was con-

Admissions as to the state of af-

accidental; that the Americans made
use of the corvee system but have
abolished 1t; that there have been
virtually no sessions of the legisla-

Kitchen, Bath, Bed
Provided by New
Autos in France

Paris, Oct. 20.-Automobile manu-
facturers are attempting to solve
the housing crisis by manufacturing
large automobiles which, like Pull
man cars. may be transformed into
sitting or bedrooms and which also
contain small kitchenettes and bath
rooms.
Considering the number of people
in France who wish to marry but
can't do so because they can't find
any apartments or houses to live
in, the new automobile apartment
should prove boom.
Honeymoons will be but a de-
hghtful shifting of scenery entirely
at will, while settling down at
home loses all terrors.
An attractive site is chosen a
little out of the city. Here the
automobile stays at night. In the
morning hubby and wife go to town
together, he being brought to the
office, she to the department store,
her house waiting for her outside
while she shops. Business mems
lunches at home become the ordi-

WORLDLEAGUE
Peace Conference Official
Says Steps Will be Taken
If Harding Wins.
OPEN TO ALL NATIONS
This Country's Part in. Eu-
ropean Affairs Held to
Be Imperative.
(By Universal Service }

A new association of nations,
with France and the United States
as the leading and proprietary mem
bers, will be proposed early in the
new administration, If Senator Hard
ing is elected, it was stated by one
of the American officials to the
Peace Conference here yesterday.
Practically all the other nations
now members of the league, it is
understood, will be invited to join.
France is willing to accept any
terms laid down by the United
States. it is authoritatively stated,
in order to get the United States
to join her in such an association.
Distrust of the league is making
rapid strides in France, which fears
and Is breaking away from the Brit
ish influences, according to the Uni
versal Service informant. So suspi-
cious have Belgium and Holland
also become, he said. that they are
now conducting negotiations for
mutual defense without relation to
clared, will be the first to follow
the new association.
- Would DispIaee England.
The United States, according~ to
the present plan, is to displace
Great Britain as the center of the
international political system.
The Overtures made by "spokes-
men of France" to Senator Hard
ing, it is learned here. conveyed the
strongest intimations that France is
ready TO follow the United States
into an arrangement on that basis.
stephen Lausanne, special repre-
sentative Of the French govern
ment. is also understood TO have
made somewhat similar representa-
tions to members of the Foreign
Relations Committee when he was
in Washington.
"a new statement by NJ. Lausanne.
published in the Paris Matfn, and
received here today, provides sub
stantial Corroboration of the atti-
tude of that government.
Need of L. $. Imperative.
Trance regards Americas re-en-
trance into European affairs as so
imperative, he writes, that she
would be willing to pay any price
for an association or league-it is
largely a matter of phraseology-
but it would be far from correct to
.InICE from this that the French de-
sire a more loosely formed interna-
tional society. On the contrary, the
French idea OF reorganiing the
league is to invest it with much
greater authority. material as well
as moral. Much, for example. as an
ordinary court is enabled to compel
those who come before ii to recog
nize its rulings as binding.
Americas presence in the league
is essential. Any league needs the
stabiliZing influence of some great,
distinguished member"
1t is believed here that in form
ing the new association Senator
Harding. IL elected, would follow
in some particulars the draft of the
special treaty signed in Paris by
President Wilson and Premier Gle
menceau for the protection of
France against Germany. In this
treaty, however, it was provided
that the United States shall be
bound to come Immediately to the
assistance of France in the event
of any unprovoked movement of ag-
Fression against her being made by
Germany.
