Z of the Cloth, Hat, Cap and Millinery
Workers International Union passed
the following resolution on the death
of Eugene V. Debs:
Whereas, Eugene v. Debs has Just
passed away, and
Whereas, Eugene v. Debs has been a
militant leader in the struggle OF the
American workers against the autoeratic
rule of the American capitalist class,
fighting courageously for the right Of the
workers to organize, against the use Of
inIunctions In labor disputes, against the
participation BY the United States In the
last World War and for the establish
ing of a political party that shall rep
resent the workers of the nation, and
Whereas, as a penalty for his activity

Eugene v. Debs has spent years of his
life in the capitalist prisons, being re-
leased only after years Of confinement
which broke his health and caused his
untimey death.
Wherefore BE II Resolved by capmak-
ers Union, Local 2, that he express our
deep sorrow at the loss Of Eugene v.
Debs, from the ranks Of the labor move
ment, and
Be II Further Resolved, that we call
upon all labor organizations In the city
Of Boston to unite and honor his men,

Germans Sore at u. S.
Kick at Steel Trust;
Kellogg Denies Story

BERLIN, Oct. 20. - The German
press was greatly excited over London
and Paris reports that the United
States government is amazed and ir-
ritated" over the proposed formation
of a Franco-German steel combine.
The reports declared that the
United States department OF state has
warned the German ambassador,
Baron Won Nathan, in sharp terms
against Herr Stresemann venturing
upon any European policy which dis
pleased the United States.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 2S.-Secretary
Of State Kellogg has branded as I'M
true reports that the United States
has interposed objections, directly or
indirectly, to the formation Of a
Franco-German steel combine. An
equally forceful disclaimer came from
high officials Of the treasury.
The German embassy also formally
denied that Baron Won Nathan, or any
Of the embassy officials, had discussed
with Kellogg the steel combine.

AMBITIONS OF
DOMINIONS IRK
DOWNING STREET
Empire Opposes Their
Ambassadorial Aims

LONDON, Oct. 29.-The British dip
lomats are nothing If not clever. They
are now using all their tricks on the
delegates to the imperial conference,
particularly those who are chatting uH-
der the collar because of the imperial
restrictions imposed on them by the
so-called mother country"
As we pointed out yesterday, It is
not wise to believe British news sto-
ries to the effect that Downing Street
has Premier Hertzog of South Africa
isolated from Canada and the Irish
Free State representatives. AS mat
ter of fact, the British are at least as
worried about Canada as they are
about South Africa. And today we
learn that the intention OF Canada to
send a representative to Washington
who would speak directly to the state
department for Canada has created a
very uneasy feeling in London.
British Jesutism.
This is where British trickery comes
in. The foreign Office circulated the
report that Washington would rather
deal with the imperial ambassador,
speaking for all the dominions rather
than with a dozen representatives
AS matter OF fact, Washington has
already had direct conferences with
South Africa over trade matters and
one Of Hertzog's grievances is that
the rBitish ambassador in Washington
allowed imperial displeasure over the
conversations to reach the white
house.

fare below the hips is also a favor
w. U,e the Uneven HemIine

lite.
Use the Uneven Hemline
The uneven hemline Is very good,
not SO much for street frocks as for
the daintier, softer frocks of after
noon and evening. Usually this line
is up In the front and down IN the
back, but sometimes the sides are
long with the front and back short.
Many frock, especially the day.
time frocks are made with fiat
back. The fullness is then intro
duced across the front by means OF
box pIeats. Sometimes these pleats
go right across the front. At others
they are concentrated at one or both
side fronts. For the more tailored
costume, the inverted plait is used,
either at the side or the front.
The hemline tunic Is another
method of obtaining a feeling or
flare and motion in the skirt. These
TUNES usually open down the front
over a tight underslip. On these
frocks the bodice is slightly nodded
to the figure.
Jumpers Again
or course, for morning, afternoon
and evening the jumper dress Is a
great favorite. It Is almost a uni
form for sports wear. 1t Is ire
quently seen in silks or kasha or
Jersey in street shades; in the after
noon it is in georgette, while in the
evening It is in chiffon gorgeously
beaded or spangled.
The jumper is longer than It was
last year, and the skirt Is usually
full in the front with fiat back. II
seems as though this youthfully BE-
coming little frock Is ever new. II
has been several times rumored that
| 1t Is going out Of fashion. but back
| It comes with few slight changes
and finds itself more charming and
more popular than ever before. This
| is probably because its supple boy
ish lines and the freedom Of motion
| it allows, express the life OF the
woman Of today better than any
other type of costume.
The Influence Of the Cape
The little cape Is the very newest
/ idea for spring and summer frocks.
Sometimes this cape Is so narrow
| that 1t is hardly more than wide
collar while In other models 1t
] reaches well below the waist. In
the street frocks, especially the
| wooden ones, this cape is detachable
| leaving an equally smart but cooler
dress for warmer days. This cape
| Is also seen on fQdHy d CHiiLOh CFCh
ing dress to which its fluttering mo-
ton adds unusual charm.
OF course. sleeves are long and
tight for daytime wear. Now and
| then one sees a dainty little frock
for summer afternoons with the
briefest of sleeves, but these frocks
are few and far between.
The evening frock when 1t Is
jumper frock. has a moderately low
neck, but every other type of even
ing frock has either a deep ~" or
"U" in the back, while it is higher
in front. An evening frock which Is
particularly becoming to the very
young Miss Is the robe de style
These frocks of taffeta with fitted
bodice and long full skirt, are very
smart no matter how the mode
changes. This year most Of them
are made with the hemline much
