SEATTLE MADE HEADQUARTERS FORPURCHASES
Fisheries Bureau Buys All Alaska Supplies
 on West Coast

WASHINGTON, Feb. 2S. = Seattle has just been made headquarters for the purchase of all supplies used in Alaska by the United States Bur eau of Fisheries, under an order issued by Commissioner O'Malley. The change is declared greatly to fla cilitate the transaction of the busi- ness of the Bureau with the West Coast wholesalers who make bids for the supplies of lumber and coal that are shipped by the Bureau every year to the Pribilof Islands. MT. O'Malley is now endeavoring to se- cure legislative action which will enable the Bureau to close it's con- tracts on the first of May each year. instead of waiting for the beginning of the fiscal year on July first. Ar engagements have also been made for shipping the Bureau supplies north on the Navy transport Gold star, a plan which will save to the Government the sum of $3O,000 a year.

RY Hedda Howl

| Fashion Editor of the United Press
New York, April 4.--By their
skirts We shall know them!
| Frocks this season are either
made or marrcd by their skirts. The
bodice portion of a gown is often
| as simple as country lass, where
as the skirt has more tricks than n
! slight of hand performer. Generally
speaking skirts are fairly short,
ten or twelve twelve inches
from the floor, for day wear, and
! slightly longer for evening wear
They are more often tight fitting
than wide. What fullness there is
is placed at the hips, as the flat
front and back effect prevails
Where the ight-fitting lines are
used there are always unusual
hens, some being longer on one
side, and others being scalloped or
bordered in Oriental braiding.
Even the summer Organdies show
an unusual hem line by having an
underslip.
Evening models made with the
tight skirt effect often have their
entire fullness concentrated in front
and held at the waist-line by an un.
usual buckle or ornament. This be
ing an Egyptian treatment, many
of the Egyptian prints follow the
ront-drape silhouette.
For street wear the cloth gown of
the wrap-around type is popular
just now. These have straight
backs, drape over the abdomen and
have their fullness held at the side
with n large wooden buckle. There
is no waist-line suggested, as this
sort of gown is made in one piece
from neck to hem and follows the
outline of the body.
Few Wide Skirts
Although the wall for wide skirts
| comes from the manufacturers there
| is little evidence of the wide hem
at present, with the exception of
the threetiered summer frock.
Skirts with the side drapcs remain
popular. although skirts which dip
in circular effect at the sides are
not seen lately to any extent.
Pleated sports skirts, which fol
low the figure in straight line eff
feet, already show evidence of thci.
popularity.
Bloomer Suit
Whether the blOOmer suit is a
step toward trousers for the femi-
niHe sex or not, is yet to be deter
mined. Nevertheless, it is here-the
sui. with boomers of self material,
worn under two pancled skirt,
which may either he fastened or
left unfastened from waist to hem
Many of the smart suits of the
season are made in this fashion.
The bloomers extend just below the
knee where they terminate in Il
wide band, often made of oriental
