& PARIS, Oct. 4.-Newest caps for

swith little chinstraps and all.
:; They are fashioned of renaissance
Istyle steel netting finished off by a
,,;rim of steel lame. The size Of the
.:mesh varies. some times being of
wide spaces and at others so fine
,ithat the hair is a most completely
hidden. The cap comes well down
i!oVer the head, even hiding the ears.
Gold and silver mesh is used with
q tasses or two for ornament at the
side, or a frame of metal flowers en-
;:circling the brim. Many look like
veritable diadems rising to a point
in front. Some have original ear
flaps with strings of fine pearls
idrooping over the shoulders. Chin
straps are made Of beads or fine
silver bands.

Smyrna Fig Crop Is
Hit By Near East
Fighting

"The destruction of the
bridges, tunnels and cars, and
the flight of all the workmen
who handled export freight will
result in a loss of approx
mately 70 per cent of the fig
crop and in injury to the re-
mainder."
This statement regarding
conditions in the Smyrna region
was made today at the Office
of Secretary of Commerce
Hoover. A report from Acting
Commercial Attache Ray o.
Hall at Athens says:
"No figs or currants have
been shipped. Fire has des-
troyed all the fruit packing
establishments, and ali draft
animals have been comman-
deered by the army, thus pre-
venting the movement of the
usual fruit supply to Smyrna.
"The loss on the 1921 to-
bacco crop destroyed by fire is
estimated at $10,000,0OO."

KLAN |NDORSES
WOMEN : PLAN
Of ALICE'PAUL
Policy of Suffragists Party
Meets Approval Of Mystic
Order.

The Ku KluX Klan in Georgia
has approved feminism as eX'
pounded by Alice Paul and the
National Woman's Party.
These tidings were brought to
Washington today by Miss Lavinla
II. Egan, OF Shreveport, La, who
has been doing missionary work for
the party in the south.
THE klan's endorsement was un'
official, of course, Miss Egan eX-
planned" but it approved our pro
gram. And we were able to secure
legislation giving the mother equal
right with the father to inherit from
their deceased child; married women
were given the right to be appointed
guardians, and women were given
the same right as men to be ap'
pointed guardians for their collateral
relatives"
Gallantry remains the besettlng
sin of the Southern male, Miss Egan
declared. The Georgia Legislature
refused polnt.blank to give women
the right TO dispose OF their real
property for their husbands benefit.
"They said that INSCRIPTIONS hus,
bands would defraud their wives. -
Miss Egan explained. II will admit
that II might have that effect in a
few cases, but We stand for equal
rights and equal responsibilities and
think women should take their
chances on an equal basis. Anyway,
If woman wants to help her hus-
band she can evade the law by com
mitting perjury. Our proposal would
have relieved her OF the necessity of
perjuring herself Under the law as
it now stands a married woman can
dispose OF her property for the bene-
fit of any other man, so long as he
isn't her husband"
The Louisiana legislature was
equally Chivalrous, Miss Egan added.
The cause of equal rights and
equal responsibilities for women has
made great progress in the far South,
Miss Egan declared, particularly in
Louisiana. where, under the Napo-
leonic code, women did not have even
the rights accorded by the English
common law.

action destined to reduce prices
have been made public The. press
and people, however. hail the pro,

One of the steps is exclusion OF
specie held abroad from the cur

has been so greatly reduced during

means little. Other plans for ~the
most part have to do with quicker
