CHICAGO, Sept. 1.-THE Fashion
Art League Of America is here in
autumnal convention to hang the last
badge Of crepe on the shins of the
fapper and bring her ears out into
the sunshine.
The flapper was formally sentenced
to an indeterminate term as a grace
fu'. long-skirted figure with hair piled
high on her head and pink ears ex-
posed to catch the praises Of the null
titude. Her rolled socks she may
keep If she cares to, but no one is
going to know II, and the fashion
arbiters point out that lady dressed
up like American girls are going to
dress won't really feel all dressed
until the stockings come up in the
old-fashioned style.
The league feels able to announce
and enforce its unanimous decision
on the basis of its claim that it finally
has achieved its goal in relieving the
necessity for the well-dressed Ameri-
can women to go abroad for their Gre
atoms.
Although the boys will be forced
back to the street car stops II they
hope to be OFFICIALLY RECALLED IN the
manner to which they have become &C
customed, there is some consolation, a
United News reporter learned. IN the
additional dictum that spit skirts will
hang from eight to ten inches away
from the ground, and any woman
wearing EN- longer than that will be
a. far from fashion as one continuing

the fashionably dressed woman is go
ing to bear a startling resemblance to
the funny old ostrich, which hides its
head in the sand with the serene conf
dence that no one can see the rest
Of it,
The back Of the aforementioned
fashionable lady's gown, which she
can't see apparently isn't going TO
matter. There is an overwhelming
tendency toward the front, where the
drapery disappears into a bow, an or

Full flowing sleeves. such as have
been worn for some months by the
habitues of the New York Bowery as
well as those Of Fifth Ave. and Michi-

extent. but the very latest in sleeves
is a modified mutton leg, such as
many of our mothers wore when our
fathers were counting them. They

Fur and feathers in flower designs

cited amateur interest, was obl.girgly
described as "a felt hat with an up
turned brin of gray caracul' and
another as featuring appliqued
flowers of moleskin."

TRIES TO LURE GIRL
Man Representing Self as Employers
Chauffeur Thwarted.

What is believed to have been an
attempt to lure Miss Thelma Vawter,
81 n. Hamilton Ave, from her home
was prevented last night.
Miss Vawter is employed in the
office of Berryhill & Bonihed. at
torneys and received a telephone call
from a man who said he was Mr..
Berryhill's chauffeur and that Mr..
BerryhiIl wanted her to come to the
Office at once. He said he would call
for her in an automobile.
Miss Vawter told her mother who
telephoned Mr.. Berryhill. He de-
clared he had not asked for Miss Vaw-
ter's services.
A few minutes later man roughly
dressed stopped an automobile in front
Of the Vawter residence and asked
if Miss Vawter was ready. When told
by Mrs. Vawter that she had called
Mr.. Berryhin by telephone the man
drove away.

CHICAGO, Sept. 12.-Admission Of
a mass Of kilograms, letters and re-
ports, detailing incidents Of violence,
killings, bombings and other out
Iawry IN connection with the strike
OF the railroad shop employees, oc-
cupied the attention Of the Federal
Court, today. following the order Of
Judge wIkerson extending the writ
Of Injunction for a period Of ten days.
The evidence submitted by the Gov
eminent, when the court had denied
the plea Of attorneys for the strikers
TO dismiss the restraining order, was
intended to prove the existence Of a
nationwide conspiracy TO wreck the
railroads. Blackburn Esterline, as
sistant solicitor general OF the United
States Department OF Justice, de-
clared. Esterline is condueting the
case. while Attorney General Harry
NJ. Daugherty sits al counsel table.
Desire to Hear Charges
The courts order. II was explained.
was based upon a desire 10 hear the
allegations upon which the original
plea for an injunction was asked. Eff
forts OF attorneys for the strikers 10
prevent the presentation OF this mass
Of documentary evidence failed at
every turn.
As the Injunction battle continued
IN Federal court. ninety members OF
the shop crafts policy committee met
in another part Of the city to vote on
separate peace agreements with some
OF the nations railroads.
Jewell Plan Opposed.
Although none OF the union leaders
would comment on the situation be-
fore the meeting today it was indi-
Gated that bitter opposition 10 the
Jewell agreements threatened to split
union ranks.
Strike leaders on the "hard-boiled"
railroads pointed out that If separate
agreements were made they would
be left 70 fight a losing battle with
their strongest support gone.
A vote on the alleged tentative
agreements with a score or more
roads was expected today.

Judge Gary of the steel trust re-
Gently declared iii favor OF the "doc-
trine of square deal'' and that I'VE
should treat our neighbors right and
our employees right s---s
\ Which causes the Chicago Tribune
to ask Mr.. Gary how he" can recon-
cile these high ideals with the r.
hour day in his steel plants and why
does he maintain and defend the
Pittsburgh plus. practice which
takes an annual toll OF $75,0OO,000
from the middle west?' -
Under the pittsburgh plus'r sys-
tenn the trust forces every steel
manufacturer to add freight charges
from Pittsburgh to. his. mill on every
ton of steel he selts:. This puts the
trust mills on an equal footing
with mills more nearly located to
the iron ore beds Of Minnesota and
Alabama. AS the, trust controls this
iron ore, it can enforce its edict.

ARMOUR WILL NOT TELL

J. Ogden Armour, head of the Ar
mour packing company, defied the
federal trade commission, which is
investigating trading in wheat fu-
lures.
To date no newspaper has de-
nounced this capitalist for "defying
the government" as was the rule
when shop men refused to accept
decisions by the railroad labor board.
One member Of the federal trade
commission asked Armour If he
wanted the commission to report to
the senate that he is the only man
who refused to answer questions.
Il don't believe I have anything
to do with that" was the packers
cool reply. He previously stated
that he had no general knowledge
Of the Armour grain company. An
other witness, Arthur w. Cutton,
one of the heaviest grain traders in
this city, told the commission that
when wheat broke last May from
$1.46 a bushel to $1.16 the Armour
grain company was one of the prin-
cipal beneficiaries as it had bought
''short" Of the market-that is. it
bought wheat for May de- very at a
bw price.

TOO MANY RELATIVES

''Too' many Americans are trying
to float on the shingle of retailing" !"
said William G. Shepherd; address,
ing the annual session of the asso-
clation of national advertisers.
"F'or. every three farmers III the
United States there is some one be-
hind counter. For every four work
men in the factories if. the United
States there is a store clerk or a
store manager or a store owner
waiting to sell what the work1i4en
prdouce. We think we have lot of
railroad men in the United States.
We have; but it takes as many store
clerks standing behind counters to
sell goods to us as it does men to
carry these goods in transportation
to keep the railroads in repair and
the rolling stock in good condition.
For every 40 families in the United
Estates there is a retail store. Strug-
gling--under this heavy burden these
American families have discovered
that the job can not be done by hav-
ing only one member of the family
at work."
ut. has actually come about that
did, who used to feed and clothe the
ofd-fashioned American family of
five persons, has found himself un-
able to hold up his end. Census fig
ures indicate that at least one mem
ber of the family must assist dad

the retail stores. in his, community
alive. And at that. he doesn't do it.

'"The spirit Of anarchy rather than

statement in the national: Catholic

treatment of political prisoners by
the department Of Justice:
The bulletin is headed: 1.-THE Po-

.'Some Is men are still confined in
federal jails for written or spoken
opposition to the war;" it is stated
"All Of these prisoners are accused
Of opposing war. None of them arc
serving time for violence.
Gail the other countries that par
ticipated in the war freed their po-
litical prisoners within a year after
the signing Of the armistice. Presi-
dent Harding has steadfastly re-
fused to grant general amnesty. He
contends that each case must be ex-
smined onAits merits. II we are to

LARSON TRUE. To- FORM

Congressman o. J. Larson is the
only member of congress from Min
nesota who voted for the ship sub
sidy bill, according to news dis
patches. This gives us cause for a
little reflection.
Our congressman was begged
challenged and cajoled by this news
paper and his opposition during re-
cent months to bring out a state
ment of his stand on this measure.
He did not dare to do so.
The ship subsidy bill is intended to
give all the merchant ships Of the
United States: to somebody or other
and $50,00O,00O~ besides, to promote
American shipping on the high seas,
Regardless of the merits or dement's
Of this proposition (there are both),
any measure worthy. of support
should not be ashamed Of. Congress-
man Larson did not show good fait1,
to his district when he .persistently
lodged this ISSUE, although he 1pust
have been fully decided as to his
course one short month ago.
In. our opinion the congressman
reasons that another election is a
long way off, that blood is thicker
than opposition, and that the Films
Of the north will have forgotten hts
record for this term as they forgot
his last one. There is no doubt but
that he is relying on the loyalty of
the Firms of this district to keep
him in office.
We dc. not oppose the congressman
because ne is Finnish. We rather be-
lieve the preponderance of that
strain up here entities them to some
representation at Washington. We
do not attack his apparent insin-
cerity. We do not believe Congress.
man Larson is true representative
Of his race or of the American peo.
pie.
In the long run you will find that
the stand Of the Queen City Sun in
the recent. election is Fundamentally
correct.
Watch your representative, weigh
his actions at this time while polit.
ical consequences are little thought
of, and two years hence we may ,be
able to get together.-Queen City
Sun, Virginia, MINI.
