further buying of Buffalo, Rochester

Development Is MenaCed.

Expressing belief in State rights with
limitations, Representative Frederick n.
Zihlman, addressing the Maryland State
Society at its annual meeting COM
memorating the founding of Maryland.
at the Washington Club last plight, said
that the States should not be interfered
with in drafting laws governing their
existence, but when ii becomes evident
that State statutes are interfering with
development of future manhood and
womanhood the Federal Government
should step in and put it on parity
with other States.
Representative Zihlman cited Maryland
as being a State noted for its contrasts
in politics, religion, industry and other
matters, stating that it is the varying
points of view that have caused this
State to become a representative part of

patronized the sport and enjoyed it. but
did not believe the State should have a
partnership in the enterprise.

NASHVILLE, Tenn, February 20
Belief that America can do much to
help in the aim of settlement and
peace abroad without in any way
undertaking any dangerous commit
meEts for the future" was expressed
yesterday by Sir Esme Howard, the
British Amba ssador, in an address be-
fore the Lions Club.
Saying that America lies outside
the hurricane belt" he welcomed
this country's cooperation 'in all
matters in which she feels herself
able to cooperate without damag ing
her own interests"
There is a great feeling growing,
he said, mot only in England. but in
the Dominions as well as. / hope and
believe, here, that there is nothing
on earth which will help so much
toward a settlement of the various
difficult questions which arise in
Europe and the rest of the world as

are standing together for peace.

Il believe the American Nation can
do much to help on this aim of settle

AMERICANS IDEALS
DOUBTED AND LAUDED
One London Paper Against Taking
Too Much for Granted-Another
{ Praises Coolidge Talk.

BY the Associated Press.
& LONDON, March 6.-Quoting from
President Coolidge's inaugural ad-
dress the statement that America
''Cherishes no purpose save the merit
of Almighty God" and that "the le-
giens she sends forth are armed, not
with the sword, but with the cross"
the Morning Post says:
cit is good to know the Americans
feel that way, but it might be dan
gerous to presume too much on their
Christian self denial
+ Comparing He Presidents peaceful
Intentions with his advocacy of a
strong defense force, the paper adds:
when Mr.. Coolidge tells us he is
locking for a formula for permanent
peace he indicates that he is in no
great hopes of finding one, and that
until he does he proposes to admit
that the old game is still strong in
mankind.
t"It is perhaps as we'll that he
should say 50. for we are more likely
to remain good friends of the United
States if we rest our relations upon
the realities of the present life rather
than upon hopes of the life to come"
The Daily Telegraph says:
Mr.. Coolidge's address promises
for his own people what they most
desire and for the world at large a
single minded statesmanlike use in
the service of mankind of that great
power with which the course of
events has invested his country"

NEW YORK, March 6.-There is
| both distinction and difference In
the fronts and backs of tho modern
article of attire. The front and rear
views of the present-day woman are
! as different as foresight and hind
sight. For fronts and backs are
widely opposed, both as to cut and
color.
One frock seen on Park avenue to-
day, for example had a back OF plain
black satin, while the front was of
rose-colored crepe de chine. pleated
from neck to hem In the form of two
panels banded at the bottom with
black. If the fronts are founced or
pleated, the backs are plain. Flares
at the hem lines seldom extend all
the way around the skirts. If side
pleats or godets are used to give full
ness, fronts and backs probably are
plain and flares are strictly confined
to one direction.
Shield UnsiEhtIy BuIges.
This. too. too. solid flesh is held
responsible. Designers have discov-
cred that If unsightly bulges in the
feminine figure cannot be removed
they can at least be subdued and con-
cealed by the dressmake art. The
one sided effects have been developed
to disguise protuberauces which mar
the fashionable and difficult straight
line.
Color has as much to do with sue
cess in this attempt as cut, and the
lining of coats with the same mate
rial as that used for the frock un-
derneath has been an immense boon.
This tends to blur the line of the
frock and conceal both deficiencies
and eXcesses of flesh.

The speaker told of the keen con-

by the early Chinese artists, as early
as the eighth century. Paintings of
mountains and of little houses on
mountainsides seemed to have been
the favorite form of painting of the
day. Miss Guest explained that the

ear, entirely concealing it, while the
other is left bare, and emphasized by
a dangling earring.
Hats offer much more difficult
problem. One short, rather round
faced matron tried on nearly every
hat in a smart Fifty street
shop in an effort to find a creation
which would give a touch of piquancy
to "A double chin. She threw the last

Anybody with a face like mine
ought to wear a shawl over her head"

Squared Away for Battle

Regular Republicans squared for battle in
Wisconsin They have nominated in a statewide
convention Roy p. Wilcox, Eau Claire attorney,
who split with the La Toilette machine years ago
when the leaders of that faction became too radical
The contest in the Badger state will be of interest
to Republicans throughout the nation Wisconsin
has never been able in years to throw off the La
Toilette machine yoke. Mounting taxes, multiplt
cation of boards and commissions, the invasion Of
machine politics in the management of the state
university and the imposition of burdensome regu-
latons upon corporations failed to turn the voters
from Robert M. La Toilette.
Now the driving force of his personality is gone
His son, candidate for the senatorship, lacks his
fathers fire and power OF oratory. He is neces-
sary inexperienced in organization work and prac-
tical politics.
Conservative forces of the state promise that the
campaign will be hummer" The great danger
lies in division of the anti-La Toilette forces
Several independent candidates are in the field.
