COUNCIL APPROVES
 INSURANCE SURVEY
City Buildings Not Properly
 Protected, Boyle Asserts

City officials may find they have been derelict in their duties to the taxpaying public by allowing muni- cipal properties to remain under insured, Councilman William D. Boyle warned the common council last night as he moved favorable action on his resolution to have a committee appointed for a survey of conditions affecting coverage on buildings. His recommendation was adopted.
 What chairman of a commis- sion knows anything about insur- ance?" Councilman Boyle asked to emphasize the desirab bility of early action. He declared 1t has been found in innumerable instances that municipal holdings are not suffi- ciently protected. He insisted 1t is Of vital importance to council mem bers to know who Is handling city insurance and whether it is placed with companies that are reliable and are licensed in Connecticut The condition obtains not only in prop critics under control of the common council. but also in the school com mittee's buildings, and he made the additional charge that the school insurance was handled by an indi- vidual who handled a similar situa- tion in another city unsatisfactorily.
 >Mayor Weld was authorized by unanimous vote to appoint a com mittee Of three council members.

 TO MATCH STYLE
This Is One Of Latest Fashion
 DeCreeS

Paris, April 21. R,-Women's costumes of today must breathe harmony. says Lucien Lelons Paris style creator. To breathe harmony the woman's perfume must match the dress. Only the dress designer can bring this about.
 This Is the way one master Of style explains the sortie of the dressmakers of Paris into the lu- cratlve perfume bottling business.
 Lucien Lelong comes from a dressmaking family, his father and mother having been heads of the house of Lelong before him.
 "Klnoptic line" originated with the house of Lelonc. Kinoptic line combines kinetic energy with optic illusion. At least, that is the way its discoverer defines it. IL svm- holizes, according to Lucien Ie- long, the clothes Of the modern woman, which should be at once a part of the wearer's personality and translation of herself which the world can read. although it should never be thrust upon the world.
 The modern woman's perfume, he thinks, should have the same qualities. Therefore few women should wear the same perfumes.
 Lucien Lclons is the designer who believes that every line has it's color. Some designs from his ateliers are suited only to pale blue, he thinks. The clothes he
