have constituted the majority of the
causes for strikes and resulting de-
lays and economic losses.
"It is the most effective cooperation
between workmen, employers and pro-
fessional men interested in construc-
ton looking toward the settlement Of
these jurisdictional disputes without
resort to strikes
"This action has been taken as the
result of the report Of special COM
mittee Of the national board appointed
to outline the procedure to be followed
in clearing up the situation created by
the refusal of the United Brotherhood
of Carpenters and Joiners to conform
to the decision of the board in the
case of settling the dispute between
the carpenters and the sheet metal
workers which was decided in favor
of the latter"

Wherever federal environments are
available they will be offered to the
states under revocable contracts.
The courses for organized reserve

\ pears to be the sentiment one
gathers from coats as they appear in
the procession of spring styles-and
they are very closely "after." Either
a cape is a part of their makeup or
they achieve cape effects by their
draperies or their sleeves are so am
plified that they contrive the flowing
lines Of the cape. There is nothing
monotonous in the mode; with all it's
preference for capelike lines, it has
fostered very great variety of grace

esting.
The most important rival of the
cape appears in long, full garments,
bloused below the waistline, like the
model shown at the left of the pic
ture. In this wrap the sleeves are ex-
tended into long points finished into
handsome tassels and they lend the
admired sweeping lines to this coat.

lated pockets in which panel of the
darker crepe is used, and it's narrow

On the dressier blouses of crepe de
chine beading is still much used, crys-
tai beads in the color of the blouse
or iridescent beads that shade into
it, replacing the varied and contrast
ing colors that preceded them. They
are put on in simple designs, as in
straight lines at intervals down the
length of the blouse, or in small sun
burst patterns that any one can do. A
very pretty slip-over blouse in peri

edges of these, the neck and sleeves,
are outlined with long, iridescent
beads in blue shading into purple, and
lines of beads extend from the neck
to the scallops which extend about
eight inches below the waist line.

n LITTLE Journey through the
A blouse shops leaves the impress
sion Of riot of styles, and it is re-
spectfully suggested that the displays
would be less confusing if the several
types of blouses were segregated in
them. The styles are broadly divided
into costume blouses, tailored blouses
and sports blouses, each one showing
many ingenious variations.
The two blouses pictured here be-
long to the dressier class of suit
styles and are made of crepe de chine.
Blouses of this fabric and georgette,
lead in demand, with white, flesh and
bisque color the favorites, but they
are made in many other colors, and
are also worn with the dressier sepa-
rate skirts. At the left Slip-Over

fed collar and has narrow scarf to
match finished with fringe for tying at
the front Fringes and tassels are i'm
portant in summer wraps. Wide
fringe adds much to the richness and
beauty of the model illustrated, placed
across each side near it's lower edge.
Many summer wraps have fur col
lars and sometimes are banded with
fur, with caracul, in beige tones or
black, and natural squirrel the favor
ties.
Those who keep their fingers on the
pulse of public demand see in the long
bloused coats, on Russian lines. the
most hopeful rivals of capes and cape
wraps. Quite likely they will forge
ahead, and perhaps get the lead by
the time that fall styles make their
entry. In the meantime the vogue Of
the cape. and all its kindred, is as.
sured. The new three-piece suits
provided with capes instead of coats,
are pretty and economical because
the capes may be worn with other
dresses during the summer months

Granger could be saved in moving

30. Q.-The Southern claims that

A.-Thcre is no comparison.

The joint line to Seattle Is double

three or four times the volume OF u

three strong companies. and the
available ear supply is much greater.
Present conditions affirm this asser-
tion. The mills on the Joint line are
receiving n good allotment OF ears
In moving their product today. but
many mills on the Southern Pacific
are and have been for somc time suf
fcring from ear shortage. We do not
contend the Southern Pacific to be
weak or deficient. but assert the OBJ
vious fact that two roads equipped
to comparatively the same capacity
can furnish more ears and give more
service than one. II the Southern
