WOMEN MUST HAVE SILK

The men of British Malaga may take
kindly to cotton underwear, but the
women there, like women everywhere,
must have silk. The men ask only
that low-grade cotton underwear from
Japan, or better grades from the
United Kingdom, be woven or kuitted
mesh, or nairlsook, cut in athletic
style. The women, however, buy chief
ly the intimate silken underthingS that
appeal to their sisters the world
around. The United States supplies
a small, but growing, proportion.

In Queen Victorias time it was COM
paratively easy to gain access to the
grounds surrounding the palace. But
King Edward took the view that the
palace was his "town house" and

considered to be state apartments and
is more or less open to the public.
King George has made the privacy
