Peace Reigns in Lisbon Despite
 Revolt Reports

Lisbon, March 13-Peace reigns in this vicinity, nor has the quiet tfat prevails been disturbed for a long time. Reports relative to se- rious state of affairs here which have been circulated in the outside world for the last fortnight had their ori- gin in rumors which couldn't be con- tradicted because of the strike of postal and telegraph service men.
 Strikes are common throughout Portugal and affect large numbers of workingmen including government employees electricians, metal work CTS and men employed in the build ing trades, but the movement has hitherto been confined to a silent protest against the enormous rise in the cost of living.
 Inquiry in quarters thoroughly fa- miliar with the working people of Portugal show they are not infected with bolshevism that they do not de- sire revolution and claim only so much as will permit them to live req sonably we'll.

Bids Fail to Cover
 All Oil Desired
 by the Government

Washington, March 16.--Fuel oil bids opened today by the navy de- partment covered less than one-fifth of the 5,000,000 barrels asked for and prices quoted were more than 100 per cent above those in current contracts.
 A quotation of around S4.20 a bar rel for delivery of 600,000 barrels at Atlantic coast ports, submitted by the Texas company and of $3.65 on 6O,OO0 barrels, submitted by the Standard Oil company, constituted the total of bids received These prices, it was said, show practically no con- cession from the prevailing market quotations.
 While no action has yet been talk en on the bids, Secretary Daniels re- gently stated that he would insist on an adequate supply of fuel for the nations fighting ships at reasonable prices"

HOPE FOR AN UNCHOKED MALE.

Rurhors that the long choked male is about to show off his shackles of linen and starch bear out what the { professor would call the economic in, depreciation of fashion. Neither ant nor comfort ever availed free man. kind from the stiff linen collar, but the last raise in price has set the spark to rebellion. Rather than pay 35 cents for scrap of linen men are threatening to take up the de- spised and comfortable sof. collar.
 For these crusaders we sucrest the motto: What woman hash doae men can do again." Let ltl,m lctk upon the army of women arraycd in unrelieved blue serve and cake cGur- age. It is only in the most ccnSe.va- tive circles that women today cling to the white fashion. Fashion, of course, made the first suggestion, but the battle was won only when the great conscript army of economy, took the field.
 Not only has the white shirtwaist, greatest thief of a working girls time and money, been relegaied to the ragbag, but even the white or- gandie frill and the "bit of lace at the throat" have been sacrificed to the cost of living and laundry.
 There will be few sten ographers to sympathize with masculine walls over collars which cost 35 cents. Women's collars cost 50 cents for the most flimsy and worthless scraps of cheese-cloth, and from that mini S4num soar swiftly to 5, or $25 for a 4mall piece of real linen hand ems broidered. If one wanted collar and yestce, something not elaborate, out dainty, last sumner. the cost was $50 or $6O in the best Fifth avenue shops. A millionaire hrs- band or faithful gra aod.nothcr at home is essential if one $ to be freshly organdied and embroidered each day.
