STANDARDIAING CLOTHING.

A conference is to be held at Washington in January of producers of clothing who have agreed to work with the government for lower prices. There is great need for such a movement. The advance in cloth ing has been worse than that even for food.
 The suggestion is made that a large part of standardized medium priced oss be produced. By avoiding constant style changes and concentrating on a few patterns, any mill can reduce production costs.
 This would not mean that everyone would have to buy clothes pre- ciselF alike. Different mills could turn out different patterns, so there would still be variety.
 People who do not demand some thing entirely individual and differ ent from anything else. should not be compelled to pay for the desire Of others for incessant novelty. Nine tenths of the men would buy stand ardized clothes. and at least half of the women.

LOOKING AHEAD INTO 1920 AND
 BACK AT 1873

Most persons who may take the trouble to look back at the hopeful forecasts for the year 1919 can hard ly escape a sense of disappointment over the manner in which cautious prophecy has remained unfulflled- Many unexpected benefits were con- ferred, for which all of us are duly grateful.
 Many unforeseen obstacles, how ever, have blocked the return to settled conditions, and a sense of baf- fled Encouragement must be present in the minds of all thoughtful men. More than ever we realize that we dangerous tides and currents, with experiences and the Providence that guides the deStinies of nations and peoples.
 Our sins of omission have been many. The treaty is unratified- something inconceivab1e twelve months ago. Our railroads are still in Government hands.
 Federal, state and municipal ex- penditures remain on an extravagant scale. The budget plan drags. There is no prospect of materially reducei taxes, thus foreshadowing a continu- ance of high living costs.
 A year ago there was but the barest suggestion of a Tabor prob lem" Now we are struggling with the menace of Bolshevism. A year ago we were congratulating ourselves upon our war-won tendency to thrift only to see the calendar mark up an

era of extravagant spending without precedent.
 The note of disappointment over the past year is possibly one of the most hopeful elements for the future. Much frothy emotion has evaporated during a period of stress and anxiety. We are beginning to settle down to the sober business of reconstruction. We have discovered that the task is not going to be a holiday pageant, that we must face dtsillusionment, losses and the usual give and take so indissolubly associated with re- adjustment. With our eyes opened to the facts we are in a much better position to achieve progress than we were a year ago.

the requirements OF the law were com.
piled with.
"All this" continued Judge McCarran,
has already been thrashed out in the Ne
vada courts. All the points now raised by
the Acknowledgement have been raised be-
fore and settled by the Supreme Court Of
the State-the decisions are all against
the Attorney-G claims and conten-
lions.
III DEGREES Of divorce had not been rem
dered by the courts of Nevada under SINH
lar circumstances, or if these DEGREES,
when rendered, had not been brought to
the attention OF the court OF last resort Of
the State of Nevada. We might be called
upon to look to the decisions OF other
States 10 support the decree recently rem.
dered to the great screen artist. But on
at least four occasions DEGREES rendered
by the Court of Nevada, where the sur
rounding circumstances were either iden-
tical or quite analogous to those Of the
Pickford case. the decisions of the lower
court have been taken by appeal to the
Supreme Court and there passed upon.
Primarily 1t must not be lost sight of
that the Pickford case, like others of its
kind, stands squarely upon tho statutes Of
Nevada, written and Incorporated into the
laws of this State in 1864. Whatever
doubt there might have been as to an in
depreciation or construction Of the statute
this doubt was done away with when the
Supreme Court Of Nevada rendered the de.
cision in the case OF Tiedeman vs. Tiede-
man, wherein 1t was determined that un-

licity were eliminated from this matter
there would be nothing left"
The following interview with exJudge
McCarran explains Mary Plckford's side
OF the controversy:
Judge McCarran, your client. Mary
Pickford Moore. has been charged by the
chief prosecuting officer OF the State OF
Nevada with fraud, conspiracy and wilful
perjury. Is there any truth in the charge
that Mary Pickford and her husband.
Owen Moore, entered into conspiracy to
impose upon the courts of Nevada?"
II deny that there was any plan, ar
rangement or collision between Mrs.
Moore and Mr.. Moore to obtain fraudu-
lent divorce"
Mary Pickford Moore. your client,
swore she was then, and in good faith In
tended to remain, resident of the State
OF Nevada-was that tho truth or was It
misstatemcnt, rs the Attorney General
asserts?"
Residence Is not necessary for either
party to the divorce IL the defendant is
found and served with notice Of the suit
within the county"
do you maintain that the fortunate ar
rival Of Mr.. Moore within reach Of your
summons server in Douglas County was a
pure accident and not part OF tho scheme,
bargain and conspiracy that the Attorney
General claims it WASP"

charge for the same reason l have just

serious difficulties in her recent
divorce suit-or is It all a tempest
in teapot?
Whatever Mary Pickford said or did in
that little courtroom in Minden, Nevada.
That Tuesday afternoon OF March 9, she
was acting under advice. Just as her
stage director tells her how to follow the
plot and action the scenario writer has
prepared-so Mary Pickford in all she did
and all she said must have followed the
. suggestions OF her legal advisers.
!. Was Our Mary" badly stage-drected by
her lawyer-and will the whole thing have
TO be done over again with different stage
setting?
F.: Or Is the Attorney general OF Nevada
trying to stir up troublc-like the villain
, in the moyies-which will turn out to
amount to nothing in the last act?
There appears TO be no doubt that Mary

one OF the ablest. most experienced law.
yers In Nevada. 1t seems hardly likely
that he would have SO badly managed the
case as the Attorney General asserts. -
The main points OF the dispute, as set
forth by Acknowledgement Fowler in his
demand that the divorce decree be can.
celled, are:
1. That the person bringing tho divorce
action must for six months be an "actual.
bona fide resident of the State and county
In which tho action was brought" or, II not
a Six months resident, then
/! 2. where the plaintiff being an actual
resident OF the county the defendant can
be found within tho county md nereonallv
! served therein"
F., Miss Pickford's testimony was perfectly
cleancut and definite as to her statement
that she was In good faith n resident of
( Nevada and had not come into the State
and pretended residence for tho purpose
OF bringing a divorce suit. On the matter
OF the lucky finding OF tho defendant, Mr..
Moore, right In Douglas County, Nevada,
just at the moment her lawyer needed him
there to serve papers on-this, the Attor-
ney-General swears was q part of
conspiracy to impose upon tho Nevada
courts.
But Mary Pickfords chief legal adviser,
exJudge McCarran, Is one Of the oldest
and most skilful lawyers in Nevada
Judge McCarran was himself Chief Jus.
tice OF the Supreme Court OF the State and
Is an expert in the divorce laws OF Ne
rada. Judge McCarran, In the following
statement Of Mary Pickford's side of the
dispute. says that all the points raised now
by the Attorney-General against Mary
Pickford's divorce have been thrashed out
long ago and settled against the conten-
lions Of the Attorney. General In the
