BERLIN REJECTS
HATS and GOWNS
FROM FRANCE

Berlin, Feb. 26-(MaiD-Frieda and
Gretchen are to have no more Paris
gowns. There are to be no more smart
little hats brought to Germany from
the fashionable millinery shops on the
Place Vendome and the Rue de la
Paix.
These articles are not permitted to
cross the German boundary since the
French inva sion of the Ruhr. and the
leaders of the German fashion indus
tries have instructed their buyers that
French models are not to he bought
either directly or indirectly.
High prices in France had pre-
vented German firms from buying
many models. Consequently the i'm
porta tons Of such ffnery from France
had been inconsiderable AS COM
pared to pre-war times. But Berlin
modistes We're slowly resuming their
Paris trips and buying limited guam
titles of late creations, when the
Euhr trouble came along and brought
the general boycott against articles
made in France.
Baron Drecoll. managing director
of one of Berlins greatest fashion
shops. told the correspondent of The
Associated Press that this latest pro-
hibition will make little difference to
Berlin designers. rs they have not re-
lied directly en- Paris for their styles
since the beginning of the war and
have to a great extent. become crca
tors of their own models.
"Of course, many Of our ideas come
from Paris. 1t is foolish to deny
that Paris leaLs in the creation OF
NODES" declared the Baron. Put
Germany has learned to develop
Partisan suggestions and adapt them
In many cases they are greatly modi-
fed, rs Partisan designs are often too
extreme for our trade. The prohl-
biton against the importation of
French goods will affect modistes
and milliners only in two lines, silk
and flowers. 1t is difficult to replace
certain French silks and flowers"
Vienna and Berlin have been work
ing together in the development OF
modes since the beginning of the
World War. Because, of the low. ex :
change they have been successful in
developing a considerable trade for
model gowns in the Scandinavian
countries. the Balkans and Central
Europe. American and French fash
it-. maya zines have been the source
of many ideas for the German and
also send their representatives to
the great Watering places on the
Riviera and have little difficulty in
keeping up with the latest French
ideas. ..
In Berlin virtually all French and
Belgian nationals occupying apart
ments or rooms are beiEg dispos-
sessed. They were barred in jan
uary from all hotels. There are about
5000 French and 1000 Belgian resi-
dents in the city.
In the stores merchants and clerks
have no time for Frenchmen and will
not knowingly serve them. Women
clerks in shops are even more bitter
against the French than men, and
take great pains to make sure their
customers are not their most hated
enemies.
Frenchmen are brusquely ordered
out of business houses as soon as
their nationality becomes known.
Cafes and bars refuse to serve them.
Barber shops have. hung up the sign
mo Frenchmen admitted" and taxi
cabs turn down everyone with a
French accent.
