Representatives of all parts of the
state were present and pledged their
support to the movement. Mr.. Fur
long. head of the highway department
of the Chamber of Commerce here
talked on giving out road information.
The people of the state. he said. are
coming to the realization that there
must be some thorough and system
attic way of dispensing information
about the roads to motor tourists. Mr..
Furlong has been engaged in this
kind of work and has made a study Of
it for several. years and is known
over the state for having built up
the most efficient bureau of road in
formation in this part of the country.
He outlined a method of designating
towns on highways where information
could be given out and of having these
places keep in constant touch with
each other so that they could tell
road conditions in any section.
The plan was we'll received. and
many present said they would de-
velop such o bureau and cooperate
with the highway department here.

Skirts Will Be Approx
mately Six Inches From
Ground-Gowns Show
None Of the King Tut In
fluence.
BY ALLEN LAMONT.

CoGNrlght by The san Antonio Light.
New York, April 25.-The length
OF skirt is a matter OF moment to
all women and many men both for
business and personal reasons. For
the benefit of these so interested il
may be stated authoritatively that the
first lady of the land will wear her
skirts this spring approximately six
inches from the ground.
The writer is able, through express
permission TO give descriptions OF
some of the latest additions to Mrs
Harding's spring apparel recently re.
ceived at the White House. These
show an abiding sense of individuality,
a wonderful conception of color values.
sure Judgment of becomingneSs OF
design and a total avoidance of ex-
tremes of style.
Conservatism is a keynote of Mrs.
Harding's ideas in dress as is the case
also with the President himself. Yet
the haute couteur declare that the
clothes of no other mistress of the
White House have been so admired
for their appropriateness and smart
ness. Perhaps these two latter fac.
tors help to account for the fact that
the President and his wife are count
ed among the best dressed men and
women in America.
Green Favorite Color.
Green is a color which has found
favor in Mrs. Harding's new costumes.
For example a gown she wore at the
theater recently was of beautiful
lace with this she wore a brocaded
cape of apple green, with a deep
mauve ostrich trimming which form
ed a high rolled collar making a won
derful background for her face.
One of her new semi-evening gowns,
also appropriate for the theater, is
of green beaded georgette. With this
is worn a black satin cape heavily
trimmed with jet and with green
lining the exact shade of the dress.
The cape is two-thirds the length the
gown and is thus neither of the ex-
tremely long nor of the extremely short
type. This costume is completed, as
are all of Mrs. Harding's newest crea-
tons by slippers and stockings of an
exactly matching shade.
One OF Mrs. Harding's new after
noon frocks is a crepe de chine of
French gray with touches of dull blue
and red in bands of embroidery around
the neck and on the sleeves. With
this. Mrs. Harding wears a gray cape
with a collar of gray and white SPUR
rel. The hat she selected to accom-
pany this costume is of beautifully
shades of red, one rich
tone melting itno another.
A Striking Evening Gown.
Perhaps one of the most striking
and distinguished Of Mrs. Harding's
new evening gowns is a combination
of black and ecru Spanish lace. This
is adorned with flowing black lace

Berlin Believes 30 Billion
Mark Offer Will Not
Satisfy France.

Berlin, April 25.-The German gov
ernment will submit its new repara-
tons plan by the end of this week.
Conferences as to the amount TO
be offered TO the Allies are still con-
tinuing daily and litter fights are
taking place over the question.
According to reports from Will
helmstrasse the parties which are rep
resenting the present cabinet still
cling to their offer of 30,000,000.000
gold marks, whereas the Socialists
and Democrats stand out for 3d.
600, 100000 marks as the basis of the
reparations payments.
In regard to Frances demand for
security, Germany will fall back upon
Chancellor Cuno's offer made in a
speech last December to enter into an
agreement under which neither side
can attack the other within the next
80 years without the consent of the
allied powers and the United States.
A new feature to I contained in
the next note will be an offer to ex-
tSiIu thlo Ithiuu duotuei tcH, iNthlN
or more years.
In diplomatic and political circles in
Berlin where these details of the
new offer became. known today it is
feared that the terms will not be far
reaching enough to satisfy Trance even
if Great Britain urges her to begin
negotiations on this basis.
Besides, L is believed that when
Germany asks the withdrawal Of the
French troops from the Ruhr and
promises TO increase he coal deliver
les. the proposal will be fatty re-
jected.
Director Havenstein's attack on the
German industrialists, in which he
accuses them of having failed TO do
their duty in the present crisis is
widely commented on in today's news.

Vorwaerts says that the capitalists,
headed by Hugo SHINES, are respon-
sible for the new depreciation of the
mark.

atically thrown billions of marks on

According TO reports of the testi-

who already have appeared before
Judge Dingeman, even free love is per-
misSable in the House of David, for
they are said 10 have told Judge Din
geman that observance of the colony's
rule is left TO the conscience of the
individual and there is nothing to
prevent men disciples from visiting
women members at any time they
chose and staying as late as they
please.
Another discovery by Judge Dinge-
man was that several Of the license
applications bore the name of the
bridegroom written on typewriter,
and the typewriter word Miss" fol-
lowed by blank in which the pros
pective brides name was filled in
with a pen.
As former girl members of the cult
have frequently charged in court
actions that it was customary at the
group marriages which have preceded
other state and federal investiga tions.
TO draw lots for husbands, the grand
jury inquiry will delve into the posi-
bility that some similar system may
have been followed this time.
