If you would be fashionable try to
look like a pencil in your newest
frock. This effect may be obtained by
diet. exercise or a gown built on the
fight linesSand in the right material.
The simplest method, Of course, is the
gown. 1t is much easier to buy a slen-
deriving gown than to exercise. Here
is an afternoon frock which is scarce
ly more than pencil-like in its proper
tons. A narrower skirt was never
een wen in the old days of hobbies.
Yet with its extremely slender lines
it is in no way abizarre or fantastic
creation. ..
Indeed it is quite unobtrusive in
its effect although braided in an all
over design in white. The material Of
the frock is black canton crepe and
the white braiding is reminiscent Of
an oriental design. White piping Is an
interesting touch and a black sash Of
satin faced crepe hangs in draped
folds from the waist at the side front.
It is held in place by ar ornament Of
white silk braid and tassels.
A smart black crepe hat with white
button ornaments and a silver fox fur
completes the costume.

Lond on, July l3.--There has been
keen rivalry among Americans in
London to gain entrance to King

JAPANESE ABANDON
A few OF DEMANDS
WlTHDRAWS MOST GLARING OF
THE ATTACKS ON cHlNA'S
SOVEREIGNTY

Washington.-Japan has met China
part way on the latter's request for
abandonment of the "21 demands"
program of 1915.
Taking the center of the stage az
the final scene of the arms confer
ence began, the Japanese announced
that their government was ready to
give ~ entirely group five of the
demands, which China has held was
calculated to rob her Of her sovo--
eighty, and to make further conces-
sions regarding economic privileges
and political and military preferences
in Manchuria and Mongolia.
China will reply in a statement
that is expected to end the Far East
ern negotiations, and Saturday the
Washington conference probably will
adjourn sine die after plenary ses-
sion for formal adoption of the Far
Eastern treaties.
Consideration Of the 81 demands.
the last subject remaining on the
Far Eastern agenda, began in the Far
Eastern committee after hope of an
adjustment of the Chinese Eastern
railway situation had been abondaned
and a resolution adopted merely de-
claring that arrangements for "bet-
ter protection" of the roads should
be worked out in the near future
through regular diplomatic channels.
The powers other than China append
ed joint declaration Of China's re-
sponsibility for fulfillment of her OBJ
legations to foreign stockholders of
the road
Japan's statement on the demands
was presented by Baron Shidehara,
who argued that the Chinese request
for abrogations of the treaties and
agreements resulting from the 1915
program could not be supported by
plea of invalidity, because the agree
ments made were entered into by
China in the exercise Of her full pow
ers as sovereign state"
Three concessions were announced
by Baron Shidehara, one relating to
group five and the others to the sit
uation in Manchuria and Mongolia.
Japan is ready, he said, to withdraw
the reservation attached to the Chin
ese-Japanese treaty of 1915, under
which she retained the right to press
further the unaccepted group five.
further in the future the unaccepted
group five. One Of the other conces-
sions will open up South Manchuria
and eastern Inner Mongolia to the
international consortium, and the
other asserts that Japan has no in
tention Of insisting that Japanese ad-
visers be employed in these territories
in political, financial, military or po-
lice matters

CONFERENCE ENDED
By THE PRESIDENT
FAREWELL ADDRESS MARKS FOR.
NAL CLOSE OF ARMAMENT -.
MEETING
VISITORS WILL SAIL SOON
President Harding Makes His First
Appearance In Conference Sincs
Welcoming The Delegations
To Washington.

Washington-The Washington con
ference On arma laents and Far East
ern problems came to an end with q
plenary session given over to the
formal signing of treaties and to q
farewell address by President Hard
ing.
Making his first appearance in the
sessions of the conference since he
welcomed the delegates to Washing
ton November II, the president
voiced briefly his qualification over
the results accomplished and his con
viction that the experiment has JUST
fed faith in the practice Of settling
troublesome questions in an ";nterna-
tional meeting of minds"
Mr.. Harding's belief in his confer
ence plan of conducting international
negotiations has been so strengthened
by the developments here, his
friends say, that he regards the intang-
ible relationships resulting from the
Washington meeting as OF even great
er significance than the formal agree
ments that are to be brought to form
al consumation tomorrow. He made
only short speech, but it contained
important utterances on the general
subject of international fellowship.
Despite the small amount of work
left to it, however, the last session
covered several hours. Four treaties
and supplement to a fifth were sign
ed by the delegates at the big green
table in Continental Hall, around
which all the public meetings of the
conference have bee held, The affix-
ing of wax seals and the exacting
work of inspecting the treaty texts
. before signatures were tasks of such
Importance that conference officials
say there was no disposition to hurry.
Two of the treaties, that relating to
the Root -four points," and the open
door and that dealing with Chinese
problems, were signed by the full dele
cations Of the United States, Great
Britain, Japan and France, Italy, Bel
GUM, China, Portugal and the Neither
lands, while the other two, limiting
capital ship strength and regulating
submarine and poison gas warfare are
to be given formal approval by the
plenipotntiaries of the United States,
Great Britain, Japan, France and Italy.
All except Italy signed the supple-
mental agreement defining the scope
of the four-power Pacific agreement.
