silver has quite caught the French

AS for period and silhouette, the
couturleres are quite unanimous in
their endorsement of the mOyen age

grace of the middle-age period of
fashions is to be the dominant note
for fall and winter. We in America
will, of course, adopt this trend to
our own particular needs, for. while
we are quick to recognize the merits
of anything worth while. we do not

CRACKS HALF MILE

Biologists Say The Cracks

LIT. WATER BELOW

Hutchinson, Kans., Aug, 13.-
Geologists and scientists of this
part Of the state are displaying
much interest in great cracks m
the earth reported to be appear
ing in Kiowa County. On the Jonn
Marriage ranch crevices II feet
deep, half mile long and some Of
them three feet wide have appear
ed recently. Attention to them
was attracted by the finding OF
two steers in one Of the crevicas.
The cattle were wedged in, appar-
emily having fallen in when the
earth cracked.
Biologists generally agree that
the crac ks are due to hot dry
weather and the counter effect Of
the subterranean supply Of water.
In Meade County, further west,
the under-flow Of water is tapped
by many wells.

Laws; Situation Becoming Serious

Washington, Sept. 24.-Neither
the United States nor Japan isowill-

mikado's government is making to
prevent further. discrimination
against the Japanese by California,
developments showed.
The complicated situation is rapid
ly becoming most serious. The prob
lem facing the government is as fol-
lows:
The United States will maintain
the position for the exclusion of
Japanese immigrants, but will make
/; supreme effort to avoid conflict
with Japan over further discrimi-
natory legislation by California.
Japan has conceded the right OF
the United States to bar her immi-
grants, according to state depart
ment officials, but insists her sub
jects already in this country must
not be Disseminated against further
by the passage of new anti-Japanese
laws in California.
