Throughout World.

LONDON. September Indicators
and kings the world over are trying
to reform woman's dress by various
methods. But skirts continue to
shrink, sleeves get no longer and the
edicts Of man have not covered up
the bare necks which various high
placed officials pretend to find objec-
tiOnable.
Mustapha Kemal's press agents
would have one believe Turkish wom-
en- have cast aside the veil at his sug-
gestion and altered their costumes to
harmonic with the women of the
West.
Yet travellers who have come away
from the great cities in Turkey say
the Mohammedan women are clinging
to their wells. Turkish men had to lay
aside their feZzeS, and some Turks
were executed for clinging to them.
Pangoulos tried to lengthen wom
ems skirts by law in Greece, but had
to abandon the sttempt. Greek wom
en- went to Jail rather than comply
with the orders of the Athenian die
tator.
King George let it be known ir
Cowes that he thought very short
skirts were unattractlVe, ana many OF
the women who associate with royalty
donned longer gowns. But he was toe
wise to attempt any general reform
in woman's dress. Both he and Queer
Mary have done much to prevent ex
treme fashions from prevailing among
women who are received at court.
Mussolini's effort to standardize the
dress of Italian women and lessen the
cost Of dress by having a uniform fol

among British officials who had to dc

ing the Great War to provide &

themselves to be 1ndividualists ant
despised the cheap and unattractive

DAWES TO RENEW
HIS SENATE FIGHT
Radio Address Through 35
Stations to Launch New
Rules Reform Drive.
BY FREDERIC WILLIAM VILE.

Vice President Charles G. Dawes
is about to take the warpath again
for reform of the Senate rules. He
will fire his opening gun into the ears
of the entire Nation by radio on the
night of September Is. Addressing at
that time the annual banquet of the
American radio industries in New
York, Gen. Dawes will speak over a
continent. wide hook up Of the iafS'

until now the farthest flung raoio
talk on record.
On October II the Vice President
will face an enormous visible audi-
ence when he addresses the annual
convention of the American Legion In
Philadelphia. but he has not planned
to date to devote that speech to Sen
ate reform. Between October II and
the reassembling of Congress early
in December. Gen. Dawes purposes
accepting several out of number OF
invitations to discuss the Senate
rules. The Vice President at one
time thought of invading the States

paign. but decided not to give his
crusade anything savorng Of a po-
litical tinge.

lie holds |Senate reform" to be a
strictly non.partisan matter and one
that should be put through by Repub-
licans and Democrats acting together
in the interest, not OF party, but or the
public business. In the first blush OF
his enthusiasm over the project,
Dawes thought some day Of touring
the whole country in private rail.
road train at his own expense, and
conducting a rear platform campaign
among the people, till every nook and
Granny Of the land was aroused to the
necessity Of expediting the course of
business in the Senate.
Dawes at New York expects to tell
the country by radio Of just how the
Senate works-or sometimes does not
function-in the light of his first-hand
experience in that body since he be-
came its presiding officer. He will at
tack the present rules on the ground
that through the Senate's inability to
prevent filibustering, the effects are
much more serious upon legislation
passed than upon legislation defeated
That is, after every filibuster there is
a jam of legislation which is rammeo
through without proper consideration
| being given to it. Moreover. Dawes
| will point out, the mere threat Of a
| filibuster enables an Individual mem
ber or small group of Senators to
| secure consideration and passage OF
bills which but for the threat woule
never receive favorable vote.
| The Vice President holds, his forth
| coming speeches will point out, that II
| the Senate Is truly opposed to f1li
busters, as many of its members pro
| fess to be, it should amend the rules
as an initial move SO as to provide
for majority cloture on revenue ane

JARD|NE TAKES Up
FARM PROBLEMS
Says Difficulties Will End
Upon Return of 100 Per
Cent Dollar.

BY the Associated Press.
OSAWATOMIE, Kans., September Z.
Farmers of Kansas and the agricul-
tural industry as a whole We're told
Yesterday by DIR. William NJ. Jardine,
Secretary of Agriculture, that their
difficulties constituted the biggest eco
nomic problem before the country, and
that there would continue to be farm
problem until the purchasing price OF
the farmers dollar reaches 100 per
cent.
The Secretary of Agriculture ad-
dressed an old fashioned basket picnic
of the local farmers association held
in John Brown Memorial Park, here,
and attended by several thousand
farmers. He explained his opposition
to the McNary- Haugen measure, which
he termed a "price-fiXing bill that
would put the Government into busi-
ness rather than leaving the business
in the hands of producers, and de
clared that in farmer-controlled coop
erative marketing lay the only solu'
ton, in his belief, Of The marketing
problem Of the farmer.
Statements Attacked.
The Secretary's statements in regard
to cooperative marketing and his op
position to the proposals of the orig
inal Haugen measure were attacked by
Milo Reno. president of the Farmers
Union of Iowa.
THE time has come" Mr. Reno said
"for the farmers TO tell the Secretary
of Agriculture that he is not there tC
criticize or dictate to them, but carry
! out the farmers program"
Mr.. Reno said that representatives
of "a farmers organizations had met
in Des Moines and supported the
Haugen plan.
Mr.. Jardine said he had tried hon
estIy and sincerely" to convince him.
self that the McNary Haugen plan. as
presented to the last session of Con-
gress. would aid in giving greater re-
turns to agriculture, but that it was
impossible for him to see where 1t
would benefit the farmer
Taking the annual wheat produc-
ton as concrete example, Mr..
Jardine said that of an average yield
of S35 900, 900 bushels about 175,000,-
600 was exported and the balance Of
$50 900 900 left for domestic consump-
ton With a world price of 81 a
bushel the American price would be
SLAP, according to the McNary-
Haugen plan, he said. This would
, make the equalization fee 10A cents,
he added, and the farmers would pay
this on every bushel Of wheat.
Sees Loss Of az Cents a Busllel.
| "In other words.' he explained,
they would lose AZ cents a bushel on
the amount exported in order to hold
up the domestic price. This sounds
well. but who consumes the 660,000,-
900 bushels Of wheat annually in this
country? 1t is conservative to say
that farmers consume 412 500, 900
bushels out of the $50. 900 900 used an
| nually in the United States.
II leave it to YOU to figure out for
yourselves where a law, based on
those principles. would aid in giving
greater returns to agriculture"
Agriculture has made some recov-
cry since the low points of 1921. when
the farmers dollar was worth only SO
cents. DIR. Jardine said, for the farm
ers' commodities today have a. pur-
chasing power of 81 per cent.
