1t means the breaking up of the an
thracite section of the miners union.
Lewis and the operators are agreed
hat there are too many miners in
he coal industry. They both agree
that the only solution for this situa-
ton, is to drive from the industry
this surplus labor. The ''co-operation
and efficiency" proposition will see to
that. Already miners are refused
work Already the bosses are putting
into effect their efficiency" rights.
Siready they have instituted the
speed-up in the mines and have re-
moved miners from jobs and compel a
smaller number of workers to handle
the work. The bosses want greater
production, with fewer miners. They
want higher profits and a smaller
wage expense. Now they have been
given their opportunity
Miners Lose Strike.
The miners lost and the bosses
won. They lost because their inter-
ests were in the hands of leaders
who played into the hands of the boss
es at every step. The refusal Of
Lewis to call general strike, in
Guiding the hard and soft coal fields,
his refusal to withdraw the mainten-
ance men, and the class collaboration
policies followed by these pro-capital-
list labor leaders" whipped the an
thracite miners and won the strike
for the bosses. Fighting militantly
under the most adverse conditions the
left wing attempted to turn the strike
into militant struggle. The left wing
fought consistently for the withdrawal
of the maintenance men, for 100 per
cent strike, for militant policies, for a
policy of class struggle as against
class collaboration.
The victory" carries no increase in
wages. Instead we ind a provision
that the miners return to work under
the same rates prevailing prior to the
strike. A board of two men, one from
the union and one from the operators,
have full power to make decisions af-
fecting wages. In other words, regard
less of how high the cost of living
goes up during the life of the agree
ment, the miners wages remain the
same. This board of4wo men may"
call in third party to decide in case
of a deadlock. Once yearly either side
may propose notifications" Of the
wage rate. Meanwhile, during the per-
iod of the negotiations the miners
must remain at work. This is worse
than arbitration. the miners aren't
permitted to strike for their rights.
Truly, the miners are hogtied.

High Collars Are in
Fashion This Spring

Are you wearing a high collar?
Well, If not you will have to see
about it, for high collars are dis.
tinctly in the race. They have an
unmistakable look Of smartness about
them, too. When you see one you
do not have to have it explained
as style, for, somehow, with unfail-
ing regularity, it manages to explain
itself. Some Of them are very high,
these for those with necks that de-
mand the lines. Then others are no
higher than an inch or two, and they
manage to tie with long ends so that
If that extraordinary confinement at
the neck becomes too much for the
wearer, then the collar can be opened
and allowed to fall back picturesque
ly, too. Even the necks of the new
sweaters are high and some Of them
tie about in a scarf-like manner with
streamers allowed to fall away at
the side.
Scallops are new on the edges of
skirts or on the edges of various
tiers that go to make up a skirt.
They are decorative looking without
interfering in any way with the pre-
scribed simplicity that is the keynote
Of the modern costume.

Futuristic Designs ON
Footwear Fashionable

Futuristic designs on footwear are
becoming more common in the cOllec-
tions of Partisan custom ShOemakers,
and for a double reason. First, the
lead in this movement was taken by
Perugia and, second, owing to the
ease with which futurlstic or jazz pat
terms can be carried out in cOlOred
kid. 1t is reported from Cannes that
futurism in footwear is also prevalent
there and at other Riviera resorts.
Leather and color combinations in
these futuristic shoes are as follows
Light beige kid quarter and suede
vamp, which is covered with a geomet
rical pattern in various shades of
beige and brown kid; silver and gold
kid, with long trianCles on the vamp;
beige and woodland brown; black pat
ent, with gold and red for the jazz
design.

as attractive as those made by some
body else who uses q small stitch, fine
thread, and q fine needle, on nice ma
terialS. You can save energy, how
ever, on draperies, sheets, and other
household articles, by using medium
stitch that covers the distance faster.
Notice whether your tension Is right
for the thread and kind of material
on which you expect to start sewing.
enough. Tired feet and aching backs
are often due to working strenuOusly
at the treadle when the belt slips.
If the belt is slack, open it and cut
off a half-inch or more pinch the con-
Meeting wire back in place, and see
what a difference this one change
makes! If you expect to do a great
deal of sewing this season, this is a
good time to consider the possibility
of investing In an electric motor.
Look to Needles.
Lastly, see if you have needles Of
various sizes, in good condition. Blunt
and bent needles should be thrown
away. Always use the correct needles
for your make Of machine, and keep
supply on hand to fit the sizes of
thread you expect to use. Nothing is
more discouraging to the home sewer
than to break needle and not find
another of the same size to take it's
place. Strong coarse needles are
needed for heavy work, but on thin
materials they punch ugly big holes
and spoil the appearance of the work.
Get into the habit of closing up the
machine when you stop work for the
day. A little dust can undo all your
efforts at cleaning up your machine
and making it run easily.

Sleeves Are Important
in Gowns This Season

Sleeves are to play a very impor-
tant role in all smart frocks and after
noon gowns this season. First you
glance at the sleeves and then you see
that the rest of the dress is exquisite,
too. The full balloon sleeves are the
most fascinating. They take you back
to the peasant costumes and go with
aprOn-skirtS, gorgeous flares of color
and gayly embroidered overeffects.
The balloon sleeve fits we'll over the
shoulders and does not begin to bulge
until it reaches the elbow, then 1t
bursts forth in all its glory and finally
tapers again, fitting into tight band
at the wrist. Buttons, gay bits of rib
bon or silk tassels sometimes fasten 1t
together. Most of the sleeves are of
taffeta and chiffon combined with lace.
Another very popular type of sleeve.
particularly ON the strictly tailored
frock, is just a long, tight sleeve with
a big flare cuff. This cufr-sIeeve is
unusually smart with the choker-
collared frock.
Cape frocks and gowns have the
frilly, fussy sleeve. Crepe ninette,
just a shade firmer than georgette.
lends itself delightfully."- to both the
dress and the sleeve. Sheer without
being transparent, it is similar to
crepe Elizabeth and crepe roma.

Long-Skirted Evening
Frocks Are in Picture

Long skirted evening frocks have
made their appearance. Both matrons
and young misses are bursting forth
in bOuffant frocks of ankle length.
Usually the frock is of taffeta with a
semi-fitted bodice and very full skirt.
The bodice is severely plain, whereas
the skirt is trimmed with ruffles, seal
loped edged, bordered in contrasting
color or trimmed in gold or silver ap-
pliqueS. Hens are often uneven,
either dropping at the sides or at the
rear. One noticeably beautiful gown
Of crisp white taffeta had a deeply
scallOped hem line bordered in
wide band Of gold cloth. Long full
sleeves gathered into wristbands were
also of gold cloth. The bodice was
snug and not extremely long wasted
White is the predominating color for
evening wear at present. Next in
preference comes black. At formal
gatherings one sees less red and green
than formerly since brilliant colors
are outnumbered by white, silver and
black

Every sewing machine needs clean

light mineral oil or sperm OIL or any
special oil recommended by the max

hood of getting oil on your material.
Thread the machine and work off on
scraps some of the first thread that
must pass through or near oiled parts.
AS an extra precaution to prevent ac-
cfdental oil spots tie a bit of wool

Look Over Details.
When the stitching on your scraps
is clean you can safely start to sew,
but first look over several other de-
tails. See If the stitch is right for
the use intended, and adjust the
thumb-screw that regulates the length
of the stitch Some women use the
same stitch whether they are making
furniture covers or party dresses, and
wonder why their clothes never look
