Knitted capes in plaid and plain
effects are rapidly gaining In popu-
larity.
Demand for sport clothes of all
kinds is said to be the biggest factor
at the present time. For the older
girl, high colored silk sport suits and
dresses trimmed in the same mater
ial are very good.
n
Many of the stores are stresslng
outfits for camp wear developed in
khaki and composed of boomers and
a loose overblouse.

Straight frocks that hang from the
shoulder continue to be, the smartest
for the small girl, while for the older
girl the same lines are used but
narrow belt is introduced.
r.
A great many imported voiles and
batistes trimmed in hand-drawn work
and shocking are being worn, and
many of these are made without
sleeves in the French fashion.
More and more handwork is being
used and this is often combined with
French flowers. Ribbon trimming is
also very good, especially on georget-
ties and chiffons.
Simplicity of line and of trimming
continues to be the smart thing, and
even the party dresses of net and
crepe de Chine are made along the
simplest lines possible, hanging from
the shoulders and trimmed with en-
broidery and flowers.
Very little lace is used except on
the more expensive frocks.
r.
Small turned-up hats to match are
worn with sport clothes, while with
thin dresses little turned down hats
of organdie and dimity are worn.
Rhinestone bars and combs, CIRCULAR

worn instead of couture bands.

been issued to a Brooklyn man whose

HARDING TAKES
AFL|NG At SOME
CRITICAL WRITERS
President Not Particularly Of
Tended Because He Is Called
a "Main Street" Executive,
By DaUfd Laurence.
Especial Correspondent oS Tire Eve.
ming Worldly

WASHINGTON. Jan. IS Copy
right, 1e22).-Prosidcnt Harding in
his talk with Newspaper men to-day
explained that President really
should not be quoted so often: that
sometimes a phrase or a sentence ut
tered in impromptu conversation
wasn't as well polished as 1t might be,
or at any rate wasn't always gram
matically perfect, and he feared the
wrath of some of the stylists who
lately have been picking his utter
ances to pieces.
There was nothing plaintive about
Mr.. Harding's observation in this
connection. But he warned his hear
crs good -natueredly that some day If
any of them happened to be elected
to the Presidential office they would
find it a vastly different job writing
and saying things Immediately sent
broadcast to the world for the inspec-
ton and minute criticism of hun
dreds of millions of people and writ
ing newspaper articles for tho con-
sumption of d small community like
Marion, o.
Responsibility makes a difference.
And Mr.. Harding shows 1t. He ex-
hibited no impatience with his critics
but he used the occasion to take a
fling at some Of the writer's who have
been characterizing him as "a Main
Street President" with a crude liter
airy style. Mr.. Harding isn't particu-
larly displeased with the reference to
Main Street" If he were to disclose
his true feelings II would appear that
Mr.. Harding thinks It virtue for the
American people occasionally to select
some one for the Presidency who
knows the simplicity and matter-of-
fact problems Of the common people
Of the United States.
But there was Just a touch Of
pathos in the Presidents obserya-
tions on his critics. He gave the i'm
preston 01 man overwhelmed by the
awful responsibilities of this era of
economic reconstruction. a man tom
by the conflicting emotions of an
agricultural West and a manufactur-
ing East inside the Republican Party,
man who was struggling to make
headway against almost insurmount-
able obstacles in the way Of Govern
ment expenditure-and with such a
burden on his shoulders he was not q
little hurt that the critics should
spend their time worrying about i'm
promptu remarks made by him.
In this respect Mr.. Harding is not
unlike Woodrow Wilson, who suf-
fered bitter criticism from newspapers
because of certain twists of his liter
airy style. Mr.. Wilson used to think
there were bigger things for the crit
les to write about than his style of
expression. Mr.. Harding wonders il
the little carping innuendoes are nee
essary for the successful working. of
a democracy.

Abe S. August, sixty years old

he leaped in front of a subway ex-
press pulling into the I'D Street sta

Edith Josephthal of the Hotel Plaza
in the West 6Sth Street station.
Three persons on the platform de-
clared that the dead man deliberately
jumped to the tracks when the train
was only a few feet away. Mr..
i,sephttal insisted, however. the
death was accidental. Mr.. Auss ssfst.
he said. had been suffering from ver-
tigo for some time and during the
past year had been brought home
many times as a result of falls dur
ing spells. Although the body was
badly mangled, a gold watch in the

ried daughter. the only child, lives In
Philadelphia. Mrs. August is the
sister of Mr.. Josephthal.
Motorman James Mcconnell stopped
his train as soon as he could, but
three cars had passed over the mans
body. There was great commouon
on the platform and several women
screamed when they saw what had
happened. AS soon as possible power
was shut off on the southbound rails
and all expresses headed that way
were switched to the local tracks as
far as Times Square.
Twenty minutes were required to
get the body from beneath the car and
readjust traffic. When the body was
examined, papers and cards indicated
that the man was Abraham S. Aug
list, living at the Hotel Esplanade,
no. 305 West End Avenue. He was.
apparently, employed as cashier for
Sutro Bros. & Co., bankers and
brokers, at No. 120 Broadway.

Firms Named in Charges Are

WASHINGTON, Jan. 1s.-Three Of
Tho principal tobacco manufacturing
companies, the American Tobacco

The three companies. the commits
sion declared in giving the results Of
an investigation ordered under a reso-
luton by Senator Smith, Democrat,
South Carolina, were formerly parts
of the Tobacco Trust" dissolved by
the Supreme Court.
The r. ]. Reynolds Company. the
report said, was not a party to the
alleged conspiracies and was COM
mended for its opposition. The COM
mission promised prosecutions where
the evidence disclosed there has been
violations Of law.
There was no conclusive evidence,
the commission tsated, OF collusion to
depress the prices paid growers for
the 1920 leaf crop. The commission
added. however. that ait appears that
a few large buyers had a dominant
position and each purchased only a
certain percentage of the offerings"
Common buying agencies were
uesd," the report said, with reference
to the purchase Of tobacco, and secret
purchases were made through inde-
pendent dealers, while the ultimate
purchasers held off the market, or
practically SO.
Findings of fact reported by the
commission included: THAT begin
ming with the spring of 1921. there
was a Nationwide movement having
for 1t sobject the organization of job
bers' associations to fix prices by
eliminating price cutting among job
bers. This movement was fostered
and aided principally by the American
