BRUSSELS. Belgium. May IT
Prince Carol and Nine. Lupescu
were in seclusion at the Palace
Hotel here today. The prince de.
clined to see reporters or issue any
statement.
His secretary explained that no
interviews would be granted TIE
press by the prince while he re-
manned here, as he did not wish to
endanger in any way the hospitality
extended him by the Belgian govern
ment.
No inkling as to the future plans
OF the prince was given out. The
prince and his party arrived here
late last night from London, after
eluding reporters and detectives by
a ruse there.

McCarI Is Factor
There is a new element, however,
in this familiar equation. Comp
trolIer.General Mccarl has armed
senator Brookhart with data and
figures which directly challenge the
accuracy Of the Budget Bureau esti-
mates. Senator Brookhart is 50 con-
fident they are correct that he thinks
it Is certain the House conferees can
be persuaded to that effect.
In q nutshell. the difference be-
tween the House and Senate bills is
this! The Senate bill retains all the
grades and classes exactly as they
are written in the present classifica-
ton act, whereas the House bill pro-
vided for certain consultations that
led to confusion and the practical
certainty that many of the lower
paid Federal workers would be
jOckeyed out of the full extent of
the raise" which they had been led
to expect would be theirs.
Senator Brookhart also charges
that the average clause" relating
to Federal salaries, Is not being
lived up to by Thea appropriations
committees or by the personnel Of
ficers of Congress. This may lead
to further inquiry at the next ses'
sion of Congress.
The debate In the Senate last
night was brief and to the point.
Senator Jones, of Washington, ask
ing whether the new bin "discrim-
mated" against the Iower-paid work
ers in the Federal service. was In
formed by Senators Brookhart and
Mcclellan that it did not do so.
Senator Blaine also expressed con-
fidence that the Brookhart amend
ments would take care OF these en-
ployes.
Senator Brookhart made a further
important statement. in response to
an inquiry by Senator Dill. to the
raises mandatory and not optional
with administrative officers.
Reed Hit Executive Gum"
At this pcint Senator James Reed
of Missouri. threw his eloquence into
the debate and said;

This was his fling at the fear ex-
pressed in certain quarters that the
hill might be vetoed by President
Coolidge. Senator Brookhat assured
him that no threat had been received
from the White House
Then the vote was taken. and the
Welch-Brookhart bill went back to-
the House without opposition.

Separate Action Is Plea

Counsel for Stewart have plead
that the action Of the United States
Attorney in obtaining his indictment
constitutes separate and distinct
action and is violation of the
constitutional rights OF the mil.
lionaire. The Fifth Amendment OF
the Constitution provides that no
man shall he twice placed in
jeopardy for the same offense.
Following the acquittal of Sin
clair. Stewart was again called be-
fore the investigating committee
and answered all questions that he
had hitherto refused to answer.
This action is made the basis OF
the present plea.
Stewart may not escape prosecu-
ton because of his action, however
because Senator Gerald Nye APP
peared before the grand jury after
Stewards last appearance before the
committee in an attempt to obtain
a perjury indictment against him

Sterilized, Certified
and Pasteurized

What is the difference between sterl-
lied milk and pasteurized milk?
Every American mother ought to
know the answer to that question, be-
cause all American children depend on
milk .or a large part Of their daily Jour-
ishment
To begin with, mother milk or milk
taken directly from the healthy COW
really is sterile-lo sterilize'. but
sterile: that is, is free from bacteria.
That is one reason why it is 50 desir-
able for mothers 20 nurse their babies
when possible throughout the first
Summer.
Sterilized milk Is milk that has been
made sterile. and to do this 1t must be
subjected to q very high temperature.
Keeping milk at the boiling point for
some time renders IL sterile. and for
this reason Boiled milk In sometimes
recommended for delicate children
for time In very hot weather. But
In killing the ro-organisn1S changes
take place In the milk that make
1t an undesirable food for children for
prolonged period.
Pasteurized milk is milk that mas
been brought 10 temperature between
$50 and 155 degrees Fahrenheit. This
destroys the more usual disease BAG
terra. but does not make IL absolutely
sterile, nor does 1t render 1t undesirable
as q food for children. One great ad-
vantage In pasteuTization OF milk is
that II makes It keep better In warm
weather. Raw milk sours much more
readily.
Raw milk that has been neither ster-
iIized nor pasteurized is In some ways
more desirable than any other sorts.

II you think choosing the few real,
honest-to-goodness beauties from the
hundreds of models who present them
selves for inspection before theatrical
producers is an easy Job, just try it
once.
An advertisement for show girls, or
for contestants for a beauty prize,
brings applicants by the score. At first

requirements. There will be lovely

Or what have you?
But out of 10 of these girls, who at
first glance might pass muster, upon
closer inspection are not so good. The
fault? Hard TO say. Yet, there is a

find the defect 10 be one Of bodily pro-
portion In this girl the neck is too

Here Is girl whose torso is out OF

AS a natural outcome Of the coming
of more feminine or more fussy FASH
ions, the lace frock has returned to
favor. OF course, French dreSsmakers
have always made q few lace frockS,
but for several seasons in the past there
was little demand for them among
French or Americans. 1t was the sort
of thing that Englishwomen liked.
There were always EngliShwomen who
felt that the lace gown was without a
rival for the important races and for
NAL garden parties.
Now the fashion for lace has spread.
and almost every woman stops to con-
slider the ACCESSIBILITY of having at least
one lace frock In her wardrobe. But
lace frocks are not the sort of thing
that every type OF woman can wear &c
advantage, and they frequently make
one appear needlessly old.
A woman who U saally dresses with
extreme good taste received her after
noon bridge guests the other afternoon
in a black lace gown made over drop
of black chiffon, which in turn was
posed over a flesh colored foundation
The sleeves were long and the skirt was
decidedly long, hanging In uneven hem
line. There was nothing really wrong
with the frock, for it came from one of
the best dressmakers and possessed
really good line; only. unfortunately. 1t
made the woman who wore it look about
10 years older than she had any right
TO lock.
1t is hard to predict just when lace
gown is going TO be successful and when
Just the reverse. Spanish women al
most always look well in black lace:
that is, Spanish women who are of
really Spanish type And lace seems
to demand th striking type Of good
looks that is Spanish. II may sound
absurd to say that women who have
light or insignificant eyebrows and eye
la-hes ought not to wear lace. but there
may be some truth in the statement,
