By ANNETTE BRADSHAW

NANHEN you are helping to

ways make home beautiful for
Christmas, or are employed IN
sundrv tasks about the house.
nothing can be so appropriately
worn as a simple little house
frock of becoming line and color.
Women want TO be as attrac-
lively dressed when in stay-at-
home garb as at any other time.
Our foremost designers are re-
alizing this more than ever be-
fore, and this season are turning
their inspiration to the develop
ment Of the house frock.
For the Christmas season, the
brightest possible colors are most
in tune with the prevailing spirit.
For the woman with chestnut
brown hair and eyes, this burnt
orange cotton crepe at the left
should be most becoming. Discs
Of bright color decorate the
pockets and neckline, while belt
and piping are of brown.
The pea-green chambray at the
right is best adapted to the
blonde type. The French inspira-
ton appears in the side loops and
buttons which adjust the gar
ment to the figure, the loops and
panel seams being bound in white
pique. The same material forms
the Peter Pan collar and cuffs.

GOOD VOLUME OF
CURB BUSINESS
Irregular Price Movements
Include Establishment of
New Low Records.

NEW YORK. July 6-There was a
good volume of business on the curb
market today, but price movements
were irregular and included declines
in some issues to new low records
or the lowest records reached in a
long period. Stocks that had been
active in previous trading were un-
der pressure and were supplied in
large blocks at concessions among
them being Carlight which ranged
during the afternoon from LOO to
I5 cents share. A number of other
industrials that were prominent fea-
lures of the market in other times
also hold to such low levels as to
almost completely wipe out their
market values. Interest was at
tached to the trading in some of the
domestic oil stocks, among them
Merritt Oil, which was in good de-
mand at a moderately higher level,
being one of the stocks to respond
to the tariff changes which accord
ing to some trade interest should be
of benefit to domestic producers.
Cities Service was weak in the
early trading falling from Ill to
109, but more than recovered its loss
on an upward movement in the
afternoon. Maracaibo also showed
strength and after declining to 90
had vigorous rally. Mexico Oil,
one of the low-priced issues. fell
from 55 to 80 on a single trans
action. International Petroleum was
heavy yielding from 1874 to 12.
Glen Alden Coal was traded in on
a large scale yielding from 37A. to
5s'and rallying from It's low level
In the afternoon The sugar stocks
were In increased demand. Sweets
Company and United Retail Candy

Fordney Bill Will Face

Measure Hailed as Pros
perity Bringer.
G. o. P. IN CAUCUS

Representative Fordney. Of Mich

report with the House following q
meeting of the full committee al
which the bill as introduced last
week was formally approved Rep
resentatiye Martin. of Louisiana

Iicans of the committee in approV-
ing the bill.
C. o. p. in Caucus
Representative Garner, of Texas
ranking Democrat in the absence
of Representative Kitchin. OF Nortn
Carolina, whose health will keep
him out of the tariff debate. was
granted until midnight last night
To present a minority report on be-
half of the Democrats Of the COM
mittee.
The minority report of Represen-
tative Frear, of Wisconsin, Repub-
uean, which was made public yes
terday, also was filed.
Representative Garrett sought to
raise a point of order against the
filing of the majority report, but
this was overruled by Speaker Gil
let. and Fordney informed the
House that debate would begin to-
day.
Republicans of the House met in
caucus last night to complete the
program for the consideration Of
the bill.
Fordney's report predicted the
tariff legislation will do much to
relieve the present industrial situ-
alton.
The reason for tariff revision at
this time is well known" he said.
The present law is wholly made
quate. Its failure is recognized be-
yond dispute. The prophecies of its
proponents have proven false. The
framers of the act of 1913 have con-
tended that lower rates would re-
duce production costs and enable
Americans to capture foreign trade
with resulting Industrial activity
and general prosperity.
Sees Good Results.
From the date of the enactment
of the low rates, however, until
the outbreak of the war in Europe,
exports not only did not increase,
but declined with rapidity and
alarming regularity. while imports
increased. America did not capture
foreign markets, but foreigners cap
tured American markets Industry
Ianguished and unemployment pre-
vailed.
The enactment of the bill herein
recommended will do much to re-
lieve the present situation. Rates
Of duty are proposed which will per-
nit the products of American labor
to compete with foreign goods in
the American markets without sac
riffcing the American standards of
living"
