COOLIDGE EASTER HAT ECONOMY
MEETS DISFAVOR OF MERCHANTS
Creates Nation-Wide Reaction; Mrs. Coolidge, Ho,U
euer, Prepares for Spring With Wardrobe
RedoIent With Gay Colors.

They were stocked up with blondes
and tans and various hues along that
general color scheme. AS soon as the
word was flashed abroad that Mrs.
Coolidge had appeared in gray there
was a nationwide rush for the dress
goods counters and what little gray
there was was snapped up in jiffy.
And ever since then a veritable gray
boom has been in progress.
President Coolidge's philosophy of
life is a very simple one. He believes
that each man, woman and child
should live within his or her income.
When a man is recommended for ap-
pointment to public office President
Coolidge, If in doubt at all, will in
Quire:
Does he live within his income?
Has he always lived within his in
conner
Holds 1t sound Businessa
The President thinks that sound
business demands that every indi-
vidual live within his income and that
no person should contract for ex-
penditures which he is not able to
meet.
That is the Presidents fundamental
principle. He has often commented
that he liked the vermont people
who lived about him at Plymouth, be-
cause he knew their simple tastes
and he knew that they were always
safely within their income limit. On
more than one occasion Mr.. Coolidge
has turned down an applicant for
high ONCE because he discovered the
man had lived at times beyond his
means and had had to resort to bor-
to make both ends eet.
SO long as a man lives within his
income, the President is Of opinion
that the buying Of a new Spring hat
is a matter of taste and not Of
principle.
The reaction to an extreme economy
has been greater perhaps than any
one at the White House had antici-
pated. There Is universal support
OF a policy opposed to extravaganza
and useless expenditure and waste,
but there appears also to be a nation
wide belief that q family should live
as well as a prudent disposition Of
its means will permit
A misinterpretation. or perhaps a
too literal Interpretation. of the
economy wave in Washington seems
to have o'erspread the country.

Married Teachers
Must Cease Use
OF Muider, Names

School authorities decided yes

The ruling which school officials
want the teachers to observe fol-
lows: when a woman employe in
the Government service marries
her legal surname becomes that of
her husband and such surname
is to be used by her on signing
of the pay roll instead of her
maiden name"

BY ROBERT r. SMALL.

The White House personal economy
program and it's effect upon business
in general seems to have stirred a
discussion the entire country over.
The story of President Coolidge's old
hat. sent to the cleaners for an
from the sardine factories of East
port, Me, to the theosophist colony
on Point Iona, Calf. And, according,
to merchant association reports reach
ing Washington, there has been a
feeling in the trade that the presi-
Dental action might cast a Nation
wide shadow over the normal Spring
buying. 1t Is realized that II every
man in the country followed the
presidential precept, the hat cleaners
would do a land Office business, but
the hatmakers would fare badly, in
deed.
The commotion caused by the hat
incident is said not to disturb Mr..
Coolidge in the least. If, as a private
citizen, or as Governor of the State
of Massachusetts, or as Vice Presi-
dent of the United States, his mode
of living, his methods of economy. his
belief in an old-fashioned prudence
failed to disturb the marts OF trade.
he sees no reason why his life in
the White House, unchanged from the
past, should bring about a Spring
cataclysm or start q buyers strike.
Mrs. Coolidge Different.
However drab the Presidents point
OF view may be as to clothes and
the Easter season, Mrs. Coolidge, first
lady of the land, is redolent OF the
Spring. Redolent is the word, for the
Coolidge gray" gown and the Cool
idge gray" hat she wore on inaugura-
tion day have been supplemented by
Coolidge red hat. which is as
striking and becoming a bit Of feminine
headgear as ever as has been seen upon
the streets of the Capital. Mrs. Coolidge
sprung the gray ensemble costume
upon the waiting world last March 4
without a word of warning. The
merchants and the manufacturers
were caught mapping. They had not
anticipated a demand for the grays.

SIZING STANDARDS
IN HARD COAL OK. D
Anthracite Distributors of
Country Indorse Proposal
as ''NeW Step Forward"

Anthracite distributors throughout
theueountry believe the standards re-
Gently laid down for sizing and pro-
portion or hard coal mark a new step
forwards for the anthracite trade, the
Coal Merchants Board of Trade SAID
last night, in q statement.
tThe enee result of the new standards
VIII cbe lthat the volume of chestnut
aosl VITA be increased, while the vol
inisb offe pea coal will be lessened.
Affo TIE f5rssdlt will be that the quail
ity oef nGieH product to be sold, as a
coniba Stible, will be improved by the
change. The new standards involve
more lengthy screening of anthracite
coal and will produce a coal which
will make a smoother fire bed, more
regular and easily controlled fire and
a more economical fire.
Result on Market Cited.
The result on the anthracite mar
ket, the statement said, will be to
relieve the ever-present shortage in
hestnut coal and also to relieve the
operators of the burden of moving
larger tonnages of pea coal than the
market will readily absorb. The
logical ultimate result of the new
Standardization should be to reduce
the price of the most popular varie-
Ties and TO increase that on nne coal,
according TO the coal trade board.
Coal merchants have been urged
to adopt a standard practice with re-
gard to screening of anthracite coal,
the trade board said
1T has come to our attention" the
National Retail Coal Merchants As
sociation stated, that many retail
coal merchants are rescreening
anthracite in their plants over
screens so large as to remove sub
stantial proportions of the smaller
coal permitted in each size under the
preparation standards adopted by
the producers.
Practice Involves Expense.
s'This practice involves expense to
the retailers and either affects the
prices to consumers or serves to re-
duce the merchants margin below
the point where fair return is had
upon his investment.
I've accordingly urge upon retail
ers the elimination of this practice,
which serves no useful purpose and

By Cable to The Star and New York world.
GENEVA, April 4.-Three British
dominions have taken a distinct step
toward furthering their independence
of England as far as foreign affairs and
relations with the League of Nations
are concerned.
New Zealand yesterday officially re-
Quested the league to send all COM
munications in the future direct to the
premier at Wellington, instead of to the
colonial office in London. Canada SINH
larly instructed Sir Eric Drummond.
secretary of the league, to send all docu-
ments only to Ottawa and to DR.. w. A.
Riddell special envoy at Geneva.
The third incident was Ireland's sign
ing the opium convention last night. The
action was taken primarily to make a
fait accompli of the situation that Eng
land had admitted officially for the first
time through the opium treaty that the
dominions are entitled to appeal to the
league against Great Britain should dis
agreements arise over its administra-
ton.
Previous Clause Missing.
Previously Britain always had insert
ed clause in conventions to which both
the dominions and England were parties
which excluded Inter se' disputes
New Zealand's action, like Canada's,
was taken entirely independently of
England, the request coming direct to
Drummond. The requests caused a
mild sensation, league officials recall
ing Col. E. M. Houses historic re-
mark at Versailles that Admission
OF the dominions with a. single vote
in the League of Nations did not so
much mean six votes for Britain as
the beginning Of the disintegration
of the empire
New Zealand always had been re-
garded as completely under the
thumb of the British colonial office.
inEsmuch as her vote usually proved
rubber stamp.
India and South Africa are the only
remaining dominions whose foreign
affairs are conducted by the colonial
ofice. South Africa is expected mo-
mentarily to follow the others.
officials predict that within a fort
night British Foreign Secretary,
Cham mberlain will reaffirm Britains s
contention that the empire status as
far as dominions' right are concerned
