ACTION DEFERRED
ON NYE PEACE PLAN
Senator Wants U. S. Never to

eign investments.
Ry the Associated rress.

BY the Associated Press.
The Senate foreign relations commit
tee has deferred action on the Nye reSo-
hutton by which the Senate would de-
clare it would never be the policy of the
United States to guarantee or protect
by force the investments and property
OF its citizens in foreign countries.
Wherever American citizens had
claims against foreign countries as a
result of their investments therein the
Government. under the resolution, would
assist them through its good offices, but
would in no case forcibly interfere in
the orderly settlement of such contro-
versieS or utilize its Army, Navy or Ma
rine Corps or otherwise employ force
with a view to demanding or achieving
settlement of such claims"
The resolution further proposes that
the President be requested TO publicly
proclaim this doctrine OF self-determi-
nation as being an integral part of the
policy of the United States from now
on and memorialize the other nations
of the world with the expressed hope
they. by taking similar action, will as
siSt in conferring the blessings of peace
and prosperity upon all their peoples :"
Chairman Borah said consideration Of
the resolution would open up discussion
of the whole question of employment of
American armed forces in West Indian
and Latin American countries and that
as a result a decision on the resolution
could not be reached at today's session.

Your Clothes and You.

Considering the enormous amounts
Of time and money spent upon clothes,
1t Is surprising how little attention is
paid to their psychology. Whether or
not the clothes make the man. they
seem to make the woman. Women
have more developed clothes con-
sciousness than men. The first popu-
lar poem that swept the country was
the tale OF Flora McFlimsey and Moth
ing TO Wear" There's "women's
wear daily newspaper issued in New
York and fashion news In print prob
ably outcolumns political. even rivals
sporting news. Women's periodicals
outcirculate mems periodicals and all

cry goes out all over the land, Moth
ing to wear!" During the height of
the votes for women campaign some

The fashion side Of the psychology of
clothes outclasses In Importance all
other phases. Speaking to and of
women, your clothes are so much you
that separation OF the two suggests
divorce. Considered In themselves
clothes are nuisance: and the small
boy will tell you so. He rebels against
them In every shape and form. Little
girls have the advantage OF vanity In
overcoming the natural resistance to
the restraint Of clothes. And 1t Is in
teresting to consider whether the recent
wave Of less and less clothing for women
is in the interest OF displaying natural
charms or Of release from weight and
length In the interest of freedom of
movement. The cry is for more and
more clothes but less at any one time.
So the small boy isn't as much in the
minority as he appears TO be.
The elementary psychology of clothes

KEEPING MENTALLY FIT

clothes have to consider you Your
clothes express or conceal your charac-
ter according to your makeup. And
makeup has come TO express your idea
of what nature should have provided,
but neglected.
Silks and satins. sheer and fine: the
richness of stuffs and furs, and, more
than all else. the quality-so hard TO
acquire-of wearing your clothes, not
like a clothes model, but as an owner,
as visible expression of you-all this
adds to attraction and importance. 1t
all looks superficial but clothes pene-
trate deep into the mazes OF human
traits and social rivalry. And then
there are so many sides OF you In
occasions and seasons. Formal and
informal. the correct and the latest
thing, all enter into the burdens you
have assumed in wearing clothes.
There are so many "yous" to consider
that as the wardrobe multiplies you do
not escape the poverty OF nothing TO
wear.
Dress for modesty is strange story

the auto replaced the horse, and the

Your clothes reflect the social ideal Of

Clothes for protection We may we'll
leave last, for 1t has come TO be least:

furs. Hands must be kept shapely for
gloves to look we'll and the modern
shoe has low opinion of the anatomi-
cal foot. A concession or two to rain

man dressed more for atornment than
protection. Clothes express even more
than they protect or screen you.
