Into a cuff and the ample wing sleeve,
hanging to the waist, are well repre-
scented. Many 1ecks are collarless and
finished with a border design in en-
broidery, especially in those blouses
that open at one side. Others have
collars turning back from V-shaped
neck openings or falling only across
the back. There are many advocates
for all of these neck treatments.
Hats for late summer are mainly
lovely white ghosts OF their color.

The uncompromislng attitude of the

THURSDAY BY vote Of 1913 to ~ the
soldiers bonus bill was made READY
Friday for the senate. What Wouiu
happen to 1t there was regarded az
prcbIematicaI, but house proponents
proposed to use every effort to pre-
vent it from being shelyed, as was the
original bonus measure.
In a long debate which preceded the
final vote In the house, some speakers
predicted that the senate would Kill
the bill, while others apparently were
not over-optimistic as to the chances
of Its; passage in its present form,
whatever its ultimate fate, 1t appeared
fairly certain that the bill would sium-
Der for quite while at the other emu
of the Capitol, where already the cal
endar is congested with treaties and
annual supply bills with the perman-
ent tariff bill vet to be reported.
There were those who believed that
the senate finance committee, to which
the bill would be referred in the nat
ural course, would make sharp changes
In 1t, Some administration officers
were known to look to the senate TO
pass measure providing means for
financing the bonus, but they were NOT
prepared to predict whether the means
would be taxes OF the use of foreign
bonds.
President Harding has been repre-
scented as looking with favor on the
financing of the legislation with re-
funded foreign bonds provided they
were in hand before the bill was pass
ed. While the measure was in the
making by the house ways and means
committee, the executive, according to
some members of that committee, sug,
gested a delay of 80 days in the belief
that the treasury would then be in
possession of some of the British
| bonds.
There was some discussion in the
house Thursday as to whether the
president would approve the bill In its
| present form, with conflict in the
opinions expressed. Representative
Longworth, Republican, Ohio, said that
while he would not presume TO speak
i for the executive, he had reason to be
i lieye that Mr.. Harding would sign the
house measure if it reached him with
/ out change. On the other hand, Rep
resentative Snyder, Republican, New
York, who said he had talked with Mr.
| Harding last week, declared he wouIt
be exceedingly surprised if the exc
cutiye signed it.
