ing particularly new IN this pro-
nunciamento it is because no material
has been conceived in recent seasons
to jeopardize the kasha vogue.
The most interesting colors are rose,
poudre blue, mustard, almond green
and wood brown. There is a surpris-
ing lack of the hectic and vivid color
ings of last season. Pastel and me-
dium hues are to be the colors that
midsummer's dresses will be made in.
This dictum you need not take too
seriously. Despite the trend toward
pastelS, the new prints which are so
original in conception will be a
healthy influence toward vivid hues
and these, too, will be a part Of the
spring picture.
We imagine you will have little diff
ficulty in restraining your enthusiasm
at the temperance of the perennial
jumper. So long has this vogue en-
dured, and so numerous are its
sponsors, that 1t Is marching perilously
close to the abyss Of the commonplace,
OF course, its new conceptions are
different-the latest is the bloused
effect with the yoke-but even they
require the practiced hand Of the
artist to hold them in the ranks Of
the smart. None the less, and apart
from what may be our unreasoned
prejudice, the fact Is that the jumper
is very much in the mode along the
Riviera and In Palm Beach, and 1t is
undoubtedly destined for another sea-
son at least.
Fashions Are Partisan.
One thing more. The international
aspect Of the Riviera resorts has
caused a general impression that
Monte Carlo, Nice and Cannes are
the crucible of fashion, the melting
pot of the mode, out of which come
composite styles acknowledging the
influence of Spain, Italy, France, Eng
land and America. In point of fact,
the styles are French, and only French
for every dress seen on the Riviera
is the handiwork of some one Of the
Paris couture. There are, of course,
various quirks peculiar to the differ
ent nationalities, but basically and es-
sentially the fashions are Partisan.
The hautes mondes are many, but the
haute couture is one.
The conviction is daily increasing
that the next season in the annals of
fashion is to be a season Of details
rather than fundamentals. A drastic
silhouette evolution has been accom-
plished and there will be no radical
innovations in that field-simplicity
has been banished in favor Of intri-
cate styling, and that movement, too.

World Court Cloture in Prospect.

BY presenting a cloture petition
signed by forty-eight Senators the ad-
vocatcs of ratification of the World
Court protocol bring to an issue the
question of a vote on that measure,
which may be decided today or per
haps not until Monday. according to
the mood of those in opposition. This
cloture measure is offered under the
rules of the Senate. which permit six
teen members of that body to call for
Il vote on pending question at any
time. Three times that number having
signed that petition, or just one-haf of
the membership of the Senate, il is
presented with Il prospect of adoption
when it is put to a vote. There Is now
the alternative of a unanimous con
sent agreement for Il vote on a certain
day or the adoption Of the cloture rule,
which would tiN a time for the ending
Of general debate. to be followed by a
period OF limited debate, with Il final
vote probable within a few days.
February 10 is suggested as date
for the vote on the protocol. That
would give fifteen legislative days for
further discussion. surely time enough
tu deliver all the speeches that have
been prepared and that may be pre-
pared meanwhile. unless there iS dis
position to protract the debate by dis
cusSion of irrelevant matter. If the
Cloture rule is adopted, however, two
thirds being required for that action,
it is expected that a final vote on the
protocol will be taken next week. A
two-thirds vote would require the as
sent of sixty-four Senators, or sixteen
more than the number signing the
cloture motion. 1t thus follows that
if cloture is adopted the votes to ratify
the protocol are assured, and further
protraction OF the debate would be
futile
Faced with the alternative of sub
mitting TO cloture vote or granting
uua.aiInuus consent agreement to end
the debate on Il certain day, the oppo-
nents of the World Court protocol must
determine their course within few
hours. They cannot tilibuSter against
vote on the cloture resolution. 1t
