UNDIES CAUSE OF
 FRENCH ANXIETY
Nation Worried Over Tariff on
 Paris Silk Goods

Paris, Sept. 9o. lPJ-The govern ment Of France has been asked in all earnestness to open conversations with the government of the United States on the subject of women's underwear.
 Ii seems that American women buy 60 per cent of the entire lin sorie production Of France. which includes such siIkon and lacy things as nighties. blouses. step-ins. combinations, sins. pajamas. negli- gees. pantios and brassieros.
 France produced s1n.n0o.0On worth Of these articles last year. of which s6.0d6.o00 worth went to help comfort the American girl and her mother and her aunt and even her grandmother.
 The American woman got the ltoness' share of the finer French underwear despite the fact that all garments trimmed with lace pay 75 per cent duty on entering the United States. and all those having embroidery are taxed at Go per cent
 By comparison, England taxes laces and embroidery B 1-3 per cent Germany lets them in with an per cent duty, Belgium II per cent and Italy 26.
 French producers fear that if congress should raise the tariff any higher. the luxury-lovins daughters of America might not he able to 'rhoedle enough money out of dad 10 keep on wearing French under garments

defeated Corpus Christi 400 after
the Buccaneers had settled down
fairly well. They romped away with
Harlandale 5l-0. They defeated Main
TO. and outplayed the BuffaloeS
throughout the game according TO
information here. Those scores are
not SO bad. And then consider the
fact that Samano will probaly be
out of the lineup. Not that we
would hang crepe-we feel that the

local coaching staff. we wish to inn
press the fans that this game will be

Samano out of the lineup. They
are of the rangy type, however. not
the short blunt squad that Main

the big shots IN the Corpus Christi
