Ntzhugh, RESIGNATION
DENIED; GIVEN FINE
SERVICE IS ANSWER

Attempts to play politics within
ranks of division No. 313, Street
Railway Employees, was RESPONSE
BILE for the publication in The
Argus Saturday of a statement that
executive board would ask resig-
nation Of the president of the local,
John F. McHugh, on the ground
that he is not eligible to serve be-
cause of his unemployment with
the railway lines.
1t developed today that the meet
ing at which this alleged action
was taken was not regularly called
and no formal action taken upon
the reported resignation. Inter-
national constitution provides that
such resignation may be demanded
"at pleasure of the membership.
II was willing and ready to resign
if the members thought it best,
Mr.. McHugh said today, "but
think now it will be matter for
their direct and formal action"
Friends of Mr.. McHugh. whu
asked The Argus to correct the er-
ror, said, "McHugh has given di-
vision No. 313 the best service pos
sible during the time he has been
chairman and it is my wish and
that of every clean minded meIi-
Der We have that in the future we
succeed in getting men of his cali

Two fabrics are often used in
one frock this season. Silk crepes
and cloths are combined, velvets
and crepes, and of course georg-
cites and crepes. The silk usually
makes the bodice and sleeves and
reaches to the hips, while the 9TH
er material, whatever it may be,
forms the skirt. This one>piece
frock which has been designed for
informal wear is made OF velvet
and silk crepe. The skirt is Of a
rich shade Of brown velvet and the
blouse of a lighter shade Of silk.
The blouse is long WASTED and
trimmed with bands of cording and
the sleeves are graceful adapta-
lions of the peasant style. The
skirt is plain. save for q side
drape accentuated by a. double
band Of fur down the left side.
This model was exhibited at a re-
cent all-American fashion show
held in Atlantic City. 1t might very
easily be made the foundation of a
smart suit by merely adding a. vel
vet coat trimmed with the same
fur. Brown was one Of the most
used colors IN the fall gowns and
wraps exhibited at this show.
