coat for the young girl may be studied

faced cloths and other coatings are
used for them.

Plan Adequate Air Defense for Nation

The American program, as tentative
ly drawn up by the army and navy
experts, contemplates the following:
Provision for enough new planes to
enable the army air service to have 800
machines on each coast and approx
mately LOCO planes at strategic points
in the interior.
Detail of 1900 officers and 10000
men to the air service.
Construction Of between $50 and 300
new airplanes for the two huge air
craft carriers into which two of the
treaty-doomed battle cruisers are being
converted.
Equipment of every fighting ship
and many Of the auXiliares with an
airplane catapult, and, whenever pos
sible landing gear, something like 800
planes being needed for this
Quantity production of the deadly
torpedo plane Of the all-metal type
as soon as the experiments being, car
ried out demonstrate the most suit
able type for use on ships.
A systematic development of land
ing fields at seaports for the fleet
flyers use and the landing fields along
definitely laid out aerial lines all over
the country.

Senatorial Elections May Cost a Lot

T LIKELIHOOD that candidates for

tons without federal regulation of
their campaign expenditures has be-
come greater, due to the situation Gre
ated by the senate. The Newberry
case will be forgotten so far as linn

Those few senators who are insist
Ing that congress should take prompt
action to provide an alternative for
the invalidated corrupt practices act
will not be permitted to address the
senate on the subject except by unan-

he is chairman and to which bills aim

Besides the dressy blouses there are
some interesting new shirtwaists of
white wash silk and pongee that should
enter into ones calculation. Tucks
and plated frills are favored for their
simple decorations and they are made
with long sleeves ending in shlrt-cuffs
or with elbow sleeves with turn-back
cuffs. School and college girls and
sportswomen have special need for
blouses Of this kind. Straight over.
blouSes Of serge, worn with plaid
skirts, are something new. They are
trimmed with braid end buttons, and
sleeveless coats to match finish an
ideal outfit for school wear.

Smoot to Harrison on Sugar Charge

THERE was an unusual occurrence
- in the senate the other day, grow
Ing out of the charges Of Senator Har-
rison of Mississippi that Senator
Smoot of Utah and others had con-
spired to tinker the sugar tariff or
something of the kind. The charge
flattened out, Of course and Senator
Smoot, In winding up the matter, adj
dressed part Of his remarks directly
to the Mississippi senator, instead Of
making them to "Mr. President" the
presiding officer of the senate. This
is quite unusual. Senator Smoot said,
among other things:
Mr.. Smoot: Mr.. President, wind
jamming, whether In the senate or
elsewhere. never created happy
home; political demagoguery never
gave days work to laboring man.
Shame on the senator presenting to
the senate a scheme Of some dreamer
or stock-jobbing sehemer that was
never considered favorably for one
moment by any American sugar pro-
ducer but, on the contrary, was turned
down most emphatically and promptly.
The New York papers published state
ments to this effect, but the senator
from Mississippi evidently did not take
notice of them.

Notables to Be Missed From Next House

retire this year is James Warren
Fordney of Saginaw, present chair
man of the ways and means COM
mittee. Fordney will have served
twenty-four years in the house.
Congressman Ira c. Copley of Hi.
nois was the first of the important
cogs in the house machine under
the new administration to go down
to defeat in the primary.
Along with Copley went Congress
man Clifford Ireland of Peoria, who
Is chairman Of the committee on ac-
counts.
The greatest loss suffered by the
elder statesmen was the defeat OF
Congressman Phil Campbell of Kansas
chairman of the rules committee. He
also was the ranking member of the
committee on Indian affairs and the
ranking member of the select budget
committee.
The house rules committee, in fact,
is "all shot to pieces" already. Three
of the high members will not be seen
In their places next spring. Besides
Campbell, Congressman William A.
Rodenberg of Illinois and Congress-
man Tess of Ohio are out. Rodenberg
voluntarily retires with his present
term and Fess has given up the bird
in the hand for the senatorial cam
paign in Ohio.

ihgs, but their young judgment needs
guidance here as elsewhere.
Those who design and manufacture
clothes for the young have simplifed
matters. They are specialists and
they turn out, as a rule, garments ex-
Cellently designed and fairly well
made. Their choice of fabrics and
styles may be profitably followed by
the home dressmaker, since they have
a wide market to choose in, and a
comprehensive view of styles.
In the matter of wraps the problem
is only one Of selection, as these outer
garments are bought ready made. All
coats for girls this season are much
like those Worn by their elders, except
that they are simpler and far less
trimmed. AS a rule they are straight
hanging garments with ample sleeves
and collars Of fur or fur-fabric. Very

WHILE the country has been
w watching the upsets in the sena-

change has been taking place among
the personnel Of the lower house.
New faces will be seen in the places
now occupied by some of the notables.
Among the venerable lawmakers
who will pass out of public life with

retires, having refused to become a
candidate this year for reelection.
