NEW YORK, September 26.-Retail
dealers in wearing apparel throughout
the country will adopt new sales argu-
ments in presenting their goods to GUS
toners during the next six months.
Quality and not price will be the
standard On which selling is based.
Values, wearing qualities, character of
workmanship and style will be stressed
at the expense of the price appeal. This
policy is already making itself apparent
in widely separated sections as the
inevitable trend toward higher prices
for both mems and women's clothing
becomes more plainly marked. The
near approach of higher figures for ap-
parel was cmpha sized today by tele-
graphic reports from producing centers
such as Chicago, Cincinnati. Rochester
and Buffalo, and by manufacturers.
Spring Lines for 1923.
Spring lines for 1923 will be gen.
orally opened within the next two
weeks. Manufacturers declared today
that they intended to make the ad-
vances for those lines as light as pos
sble in order to avoid a check to con-
in stating that no one could expect
values to be the same as last season
at a similar price range. The advances
in fabrics and labor costs they said
must be absorbed somewhere. Prices
already announced by some manufac
turers show increase Of from 81 to S.
a garment.
Fabrics themselves SHOW an equally
firm upward price tendency. 1t is known
that figures on dress goods scheduled to
open within the next few days will show
increases. The Withdrawal of certain
lines by the leading wooden interests is
taken to mean that prices will be higher
on future orders. Figures quoted on
duplicates are above original quotations..
In explaining stiffening of prices. the
manufacturer points to higher wage
scales and increased costs of raw ma
teriaiS.
Such factors are equally evident in
woolen worsteds. cottons and silks.
Reasonable Figures Assured.
Indications of higher prices, however,
do not signify that there will not be an
abundance Of garments which will re-
tail at reasonable figures. The proved
public demand for medium priced ar
ticles inSures such a supply. For these,
tweeds and the different classes OF lower
grade wool fabrics will be featured.
Many merchants, of course. will con-
tinue their selling efforts on a price
basis and suits and overcoats ranging
from S25 to S35 will continue to be
strongly advertised and featured.
Others, however. will make their ap-
peal on the argument that price is a
poor standard by which to judge apparel,
that there is a wide difference between
good clothing cheap" and good cheap
clothing and that only garments

sPRINTING TO JOURNALISM

Paddock, sprinting marvel of Cali
fornia, who set the sporting world
on fire with enthusiasm not so long
ago, is not to continue a career on the
cinder track. In fact, he considers
himself rather "has-been" in that
line, and has announced an intention
of devoting his energies to journalism
after his = duation in February from
the Univo. sity of Southern Califor-
mia.
Paddock is evidently one of those
fortunate mortals who has been en-
dowed with mental as we'll as physi-
cal f1eetnes. In classroom work he
has earned the distinction of the Phi
Beta Kappa key, which/is not tro-
ply too easily attained. On the Gin
der track he has gained the awe and
admiration of fellow sportsmen the
world over. He is indeed a fortunate
youth, to be able to bring to his chos-
en- profession of journalism, not only
very essential mental agility, but a
unique ability to sprint to the scene
of "story" much faster than the
average reporter on the job. His
career will be interesting to note.

Lynching and Homicide.
(Boston Transcrintl

tBOSIOn transcript
In brief, wherever there are many
lynchings, there are also many
homicides. Conversely. where there
are many homicides. there are many
lynchings. The two denominations go
together. And wherever the one is
rare. the other is also rare.
In these facts is found strong de-
NAL of the pretenSe that lynchipg is
merely an informal but most i'm
pressive form of justice. the result
of which is to diminish crime. 1t
has no such result. On the con-
trary. it appears to present one of
the strongest possible indictments to
other crimes against human life. 1t
really matters little or nothing which
explanation we accept for these Par
allels between the two crimes. If
lynching is the cause of homicides.
anything that is the cause of such
wholesale taking of human life
should be suppressed. IfS lyncbirg
is the result of the homicide habit.
then anything which is the result of
such criminality is itself intoierable.
Or if they are both produced by
some other causation. then certainly
lynching, bracketed with homicide
and murder, deserves extinction
1t is the veriest drivcl to pretend
that these things spring from chival-
rio sentiments. which cannot wait
for the dull and uncertain processes
of the law, but jump directly at the
melting out of justice by legal
means. There is not Il word Of
truth in it. Lynching connotes q
certain savage but always cowarGly
delight in the infiiction of pain and
death, and homicide similarly de-
notes a disregard of the sanctity of
, human life. The two are twin rel
les of barbarism.' They so together
Lynching is collective homicide
is individual lynching. Both indi-
cate a low order of social develop
ment. and of development in law
and justice.

Dear Sir:
l noticed with a great deal of in
terest in the press this morning of
the Boost Maine plan by the
Maine Automobile Association. and
the Maine Hotel Association. ! thinA;
this is a most excellent plan, but, in
my judgment it does not go far
enough. 1t should not be confined
simply, to tourists and automobilsts
The industrial and natural re-
sources for manufacturing purposes
should be advertised as strongly as
turers are usually operating the year
round, causing many permanent
homes to be erected. therefore, lessen
ing the taxes to all.
I, for one, and the concerns I am
interested in. I am sure will be glad
to do their share both financially and
otherwise. Let us 60 all the way
and not confine ourselves just to two
particular interests if this is really
to be a State of Maine affair
I thoroughly believe if the people
Of Maine will carry this Boost
Maine" along the lines they arc talk
ing and not practice the policy Let
George do it." Maine will soon come
into her own. not only with its Won

DevALERA'S DEVoLUTIoN

"zhat for the purpose of common
concern. Ireland shall be associated
with the states of the British COM
monwealth, namely, the Kingdom of
Great Britain, the dominion Of Can
ada, the commonwealth of Australia,
the dominion Of New Zealand and the
Union of South Africa.
THAT when acting as an associate,
the rights, status and privileges of
Ireland shall in no respect be less
than those enjoyed by any other COM
ponent states of the British COM
monwealth: that the matters of COM
mon concern shall include defense,
peace, war. political treaties and all
matters now treated as of common
concern among the states of the
British commonwealth and that in
these matters there shall be between
Ireland and the state of the British
commonwealth such concerted action
founded on consultation as the sew
eral governments may determine.
THAT in virtue of this association
of Ireland with the states of the
British commonwealth, the citizens
of Ireland in any of these states
shall not be subject to any dis
component states of the British COM
monwealth would not be subject to.
and reciprocally for the citizens of
these states in Ireland.
THAT for the purposes of the as
ISOLATION, Ireland shall recognize his
Britannia majesty as head of the as
ISOLATION"
So reads the document prepared by
DeValera to amend or replace the
treaty made at Downing Street. A
feature connected with this con-
| troversy is that it is not the same as
he previously suggested to the dele
gates of the Dali Eircarn. One might
suppose in so vital matter as the
proposed upsetting of Ireland's pros
pect for peace no attempt should be
made except it were based on funda-
mentals not susceptible of changes.
This does not appear to be the fact.
Indeed it looks as though DeValera
were more concerned in undoing the
work of Messrs. Griffith, Collins ct
ais. than in the peace of Ireland.
He insists, however, there is funda-
mental difference in principle, as it
asserts the sole source of authority
| in Ireland rests with the Irish people
D., If so what possible ground can he
have of expecting it to meet with the
approval of England? Absolute re-
fusal to recognize the Irish republic

! thority has characterized England S

which there was acquiescence when
