Mans,a. independence
for the Philippines will not be the
outcome OF the Wood-FoFbes COM
mission to the islands.
The euafssarfes Of President Hard
ing, now touring the archipelago TO
obtain first-hand knowledge OF con-
dftious and report back to the pres
ident. will point with pride" TO
the great strides made by Fflipinos
in some lines. but at the same time
win view with alarm the lack OF
progress observed in certain otner
equally important directions.
The result of the investigation
will be testimony which will war
rant President Harding recon-
mending to congress to hold on to
the Philippines for some time to
come.
Summed up. such is the feeling
here.
General Wood is not responsible
for this Impression Neither is ex-
Governor Forbes. The general is
too good soldier, and the former
governor general of the Philippines
too good a diplomat, to spill the in
suIar beans before they report to
their chief.
In autos and on horse, afoot and
afloat, early and late the two men
are working like beavers digging
up the facts upon which they Will
base their report. And they are
saying little of what they think.
But observers who have talked
with American old-timers here, and
with the FiIipinos, and who have
had ample opportunity to see and
hear much of what the commission
is seeing and hearing. invariably
are led to the above conclusion.
Bound Up With Asia.
Foremost among the factors
which must influence the commits
sion, many here consider. is the
general international situation in
the far east.
The Philippines, they insist, can
not be treated as a separate prob
lem. In their opinion the future of
the islands Is inextricably bound
up with the future of Asia and the
orient generally.
All Americans in the islands are

Few here seem to expect the

It is stated here, however, that

Modern and Classic
 Notes Are Combined

IN ADDITION to their beautiful
 colors the strikingly new note is the length of the evening dress. Practically every model that is smart and new is long. One might say very long, touching the heels, though never so completely long but that the wearer's ankles are revealed through openings or transparencies.
 The modern and the classic join in these dresses-Greek, Egyptian and striking up-to-date Parisian ideas are combined. Every coquetry and flatterinc effect is incorporated in the present-day evening gowns. The Paris dressmaker knows that to be successful she must give her fair clients something more than a dress. She must give added charm Aand grace-added personality, as it were.
 Callot, who always finds her great est success in evening dresses. has fairly shonc with brilliancy in her latest productions. Keeping. as she

Paris Returns. .,1t to 3..,1 the 1]!! Long Skirt
Brighter Hues

-2 of evening dresses that will
 be worn during the coming winter. N@
 The talk about long skirts has grown to be more than rumor. We hear them discussed everywhere as a fashion that has taken firm hold. It is true they are not yet worn on the streets in this country to any ex- tent, but they are seen in the newest evening dresses which are recent im- portations or copies of new French models.
 l have just received from our Paris office most interesting news regarding evening dresses and sketches of late models which are shown on to-day's page.
 All of the conjecture regarding the beauty of the new styles in evening dresses is being verified daily by the appearance of lovely new models from the hands of the great artist dressmakers of Paris. The gay summer social season has made it possible for many of the winter novelties to be anticipated. Paris is back again to it's pre-war gayety, and the numberless events given in honor of visiting strangers have brought together wealth and fashion to an unrivaled degree.
 Splashes of Color
 Relieve the Black
 WHILE no one can deny the con-
 tinued vogue of black-which fad, starting for daytime wear, fin ished by absorbing evening costumes as well-one is happy to note that at the most recent social affairs gay splashes of color are beginning to appear. The all-prevailing black had got to the point of where it was depressing in it's severity and pre- dominance, especially as many Pa- risiennes with these black dresses laid aside their jewels, something that is not done even in the deepest mourning Thus the introduction of . sprinkling of more cheerful gowns has Been received with enthusiasm.
 The many colorful balls, given as benefits for various charitable works throughout the season in Paris, afforded occasions upon which these dazzling new evening dresses could be worn with great effect. Wis., itors from all nations have united in attending gala performances and other benefits in the guise of social gatherings. Thus these beautiful new evening dresses have come un- " der the eyes of all the world, so to speak, for smart women of all coun- tries have worn them, first in Paris, and at the opening of the fall and { winter season they will unquestion- ably be seen in multifold duplicate, wherever women of social promi- hence appear.

 Flower motifs often are selected, with preference given to the large flowers, such as the feur de lis and the tulip. All leaves, too, are used in conventional way. When smaller flowers are used the design is in branches, and the effect of such pat terms is daring and beautiful. A

washington, H. u, WAY ".
4 new idea for a transcontinental
highway in the nature OF memorial
to World War veterans is being urged
upon Congress. The Victory Memorial
Highway Association of Topeka pro-
poses a coast to coast motor highway
to be built by the Government in MEM
ory Of the men who gave their lives
to the cause. 5Htt
To enlist interest in appropriations
those in charge of the movement are
asking that Senators serve as direc-
tors in it.
The suggestion is made that every
State boundary line on the highway
be marked by bronze figure of an
American soldier in full trench equip
ment and that the road be outlined by
memorial trees to be planted by the
women of the country. Nothing Is said
as to how much the road is to cost.
