: FASHIONS IN BRIEF

Dresses with matching capes con-
tinue to be voted smart.
A new collection of imported gowns
show the tight-fitting sleeve which
forms a point over the hand.
The present silhouette displays the
long skirt, low belt, well-fitted shoul-
ders, long fancy sleeves, little trim
ming, and generally long lines.
Velvet is much in vogue for the win
fer. Sometimes it is heavily beaded
but more often plain. All shades Of
rose and red are modish for evening.
Fur hens are a part of some of the
new suits. If there is hem of fur
there is. of course, a collar of fur to
the jacket and usually there are also
deep cuffs of fur.
Plush Or velvet are the favored ma
terialS which are used in moderation
plumes treated in all sorts of ways
and ribbon flowers are the popular
adornments.

Home Use, Experts on House.
hold Science Say.

Never use shelf paper on kitchen Or
any other sort of shelves, Experts on
household science say it is a filth
catcher and one of the best invita-
tions to insects to inhabit your closets.
The finest possible way to finish
shelves is to paint them and then fin
ish with a coat of sannel. This gives
them a hard, smooth finish, which can
be wiped off with damp cloth when
necessary.
For a more decorative effect than
pure white shelves, select some sort Of
colored enamel and paint. A bright
light blue would be attractive or soft
green.

BY EDWARD W. PIcKARD.

IT APPEARS that the prophets in
L Washington were all wrong. The
great conference seemingly is going to
reach and sign an agreement on limita-
tion of naval armament without waiting
10 settle the problems of the Pacific
and the Far East. This tendency is
a result of Secretary Hughes down.
right action in laying before the con-
ference in its first session the Amer
lean proposal as to navies. Briefly,
that proposal is that the United
States, Great Britain and Japan agree
to suspend naval construction for ten
years, and during the succeeding ten
years build only for replacement; that
al uncompleted capital ships and
many other specified capital ships be
scrapped at once; that the aggregate
capital ship tonnage be limited to 500,-
600 each for England and America,
and 100000 for Japan; that the sea
pewer of the three nations be main
iained on this basis. There are other
features Of the program, but every
one is familiar with it by this time.
The conference, and the world, were
ut first astounded by this unexpected
laying of the American cards on the
table, and then the plan was greeted
with loud and universal acclaim. The
Gelegates of the other nations could
Tot, If they would, refuse to indorse
it. and at the second open session
Great Britain, Japan, Italy and
France, formally accepted it 'in prin-
ciple," with minor notifications.
were as follows:
By Great Britain-Limit size and
tonnage of submarines; permit con-
Etruction Of one capital ship a year
during ten-year period to retain ship
yard facilities; permit retention of
more light cruisers and gunboats to
police the high seas; reduction in
number Of naval ship building yards.
BY Japan-Increase of Japan's ma
val strength to 20 per cent of British
and American; cessation of construc-
ton Of naval bases and new fortifca-
tions in the Pacific.
BY France-Allowanc Of eight cap
ttal ships to safeguard French col
Dnies.
By Italy-Allowance of six capital
ships to protect Italian interests.
A committee, of which Col. Theo-
dore Roosevelt is chairman, set to
work at once to study the plan and
proposed notifications, and by the end
Of the week it was predicted an agree
ment would be reached within two or
three weeks. Among the American
experts there was considerable oppo-
sition to the British suggestions,
and the Engllshmen dropped the idea
Of one battleship year.
Japan's proposition that there be no
more naval bases or Notifications con-
structed in the Pacific was expected.
and perhaps proves bit awkward
for the United States. It means the
abandonment of work and plans in
the Philippines, Dutch Harbor and
elsewhere which have been considered
most necessary for the safety of our
possessions in the Pacific if not for
that of our Pacific coast. But If Mr..
Hughes general program is accepted
by the other powers it would seem
the United States cannot well decline
to accept this plan of Japan. In the
ship-scrapping proposal America has
been most unselfish and perhaps she
can afford TO be as generous in other
matters.

success in the future.
1t is difficult to believe that a gov
ernment which so recently denounced
all the processes of capitalism is now
openly advocating and assisting their
adoption.
The great effort of the economic
council of the government is to get
small Industries started which will
supply the small manufactured articles
required all over Russia, such as
household utensils, kitchen equipment,
garden tools and small hardware.

BILE excuse for Russian interference.
In order to maintain the convention
and to prevent its violation, the con-
tracing parties undertake to report
to the council of the League of Ma
tiOns, with which body rests the duty
or deciding what measures are to be
taken to provide against or to punish
such violations. In taking action of
this Kind. the council is entitled to
exclude the offending power from the
vote without violating the require
nents for unanimity in all action.

Many Of the 1921 coats are fash
ioned with cape at the back or over

An exceedingly smart model was
made of deep mahogany velours, the
front having much the appearance Of
a frock. Falling over the shoulders
at the back was full cape of the
material, which extended to the hem
of the wrap. At the lower part of
the coat sides rows of buttons were
placed, to which the long full cape
could be fastened if desired. There
was a high collar Of beaver.

Such factories wilt require large
quantities of sheet tin and sheet iron,
which many of them hope to get from
America. The present supply in Rus
sia is practically nil.
In cities like Moscow and Petrograd
the government will supply these small
industries with electrical power.
The government has granted con-
cessiOn to a combination of small
knitting factories in Petrograd, which
will resume work on the condition that
II per cent of their output will be
paid to the government in tax.

with a program. But China, whose
status is the crux of the situation,
set before the committee on far
eastern affairs the demands of the
Asiatic republic. DIR. Alfred SEE,
head of the Chinese delegation, was
the spokesman and he held pre-
iminary conference with American
officials and in his demands followed
their advice in all except one point
the creation of a permanent court of
arbitration in the Far East. China
asks respect for her territorial integri-
ty, restitution of seized provinces and
regions, abandonment Of special rights,
monopolies, privileges and extraterri-
torial rights, and withdrawal of foreign
troops from her soil and permission
to direct her own domestic affairs
and govern her own internal and
foreign policies. She does not demand
that all foreign monopolies and
privileges in China be abandoned at
once, but that she be given chance
to put herself on a level with other
powers and that as time goes on and
conditions warrant the economic and
political fetters on her be loosened.
The British delegation approved the
Chinese demands in general especially
the open door policy and the abandon
ment of spheres of influence" The
Japanese, it was understood, accepted
the Chinese program in principle but
would insist that withdrawal of in
terest in China should include all
foreign powers. The Chinese dele
gates say they make their demands
in behalf of all China, including the
southern part where Sun Vat Sen
holds somewhat precarious sway,
and that Manchuria, inner and outer
Mongolia, Tibet and Turkestan are in
cluded in 'the Chinese republic"
1t is believed one result of the dis
cussion of China's program may be
the friendly abandonment of the Anglo
japanese alliance, and the British
would be glad to see this source of
trouble replaced by some form of agree
ment by the great powers.

ORANGE, as has often been pointed
\ out, is especially interested in the
matter of reduction and limitation of
land armament, and Premier BRAND
took the lead in this, though he had
no concrete plan nor any working
agreement with the United States dele
cation. In his speech he discussed
the military situation in Europe
particularly as it effects France, set
forth the number of men under arms
in the various European countries and
made plain the menace of the Red
forces, especially in Russia. Nor did
he neglect to call attention to Frances
peril from Germany which, he noted,
is nation of 65,OOOOOO while France
numbers but 35,OOO,OOO. 1t is plain
that the French will not consent to
plans for radical military armament
reduction until the Russian and Teu-
tonic threats are removed.

OVER in Europe the League of Ma
~ tions feels that its authority is be-
ing flouted by Jugo-Slavia, and it has
determined to show that it can stop
war. Therefore it advanced the
date of its Paris meeting and took up
the matter of the invasion of Albania
by the Serbians. The latter had been
ordered to get out of Albania and to
observe the boundaries of that state
as established by the allied ambassa-
dors, but in effect, at least, they dis
regarded both demands. They did,
however, disown the troops in AL
bania, claiming they are irregulars
over which their government has no
control. Meanwhile those 'irregulars'
are said to be threatening Tirana, the
Albanian capital, and the situation
is about the same as at Wilma where
the league scored a failure.
