with red.
The increase in the use Of red
footwear is bound to: revive red
fashions, since many. women dress
to their shoes.
A leading dressmalSer said that
at present red is being used con-
siderably for evening wear, but
not to any great extent for street
clothes.
The Duchess Of York has lately
appeared twice in red evening
frocks, which fashion is sure to be
followed by many women who take
her as their fashion leader.
Red and gold lacquer evening
coats are popular, which frocks and
hats are made from similar stuffs.
Pillar-box and cerise hats are
promised among the new year mil
linery fashions, and red coats and
wraps are promised a bigger pub

 Hogop Bogigian Of Boston said that he thought the presidents statement was q severe copdemna ion of past administration and he thanked the president for making it. He regretted hes ail. that there were still three di- rect ors on the board who came from the previous adminis, ration. Presi- lcnt Pearson said he thanked Mir.

he may run for the Democratic NOM

sives demand it, caused furry in
political circles today.
George w. Olvany, the new leader
of the Tammany Hall, withheld com
ment, saying 81 do not think L
should say anything now" Mr..
Olvany recently urged Governor
Smith to enter the race for re-elec-
ton.
1t is no secret that there is
wide political gap between the gov
ernor and the mayor. The mayor

On Thursday the governor issued
statement at Albany directed at Mr..
Hearst in which he said that when
the Democratic party needs advice
it will go to Democrats for it, and
not to either demagogue or crack
pot"
Friends of Governor Smith who
talked with him over the telephone,
learned that he would not talk for
publication until he had seen the
text of Mayor Hylan's statement.
The governor, although urged by
men high in the party ranks to be-
come a candidate for reelection, has
not given a definite answer He has
expressed q desire to return to pri-
Vate life.
