Paris, June 1.-t1The latest catch phrase added to dressmakinE jarson, is, blouse -interest. which msrely means .hiouses are to be. less simple without departing far from present established. lines.
 Louiseboul4nger ia . pioneer in the ''blouse-inteFest" movement. She originated much of the inter hack" talk of "a few menthax aso by adding lohg %panels, Grecian drapes and exaggerated bustles to evening dress skirts.
 One way she has of making bod ices and separate blouses interest ing is by extending front sections into yokes and collars of new form.
 Many of the yokes are round, of shoulder width, joined with narrow piping or fine incrustations.
 Narrower V-shaped necklines with the sides shaped like miniature roll collars, except that they are not rolled but stand upright. are . Louiseboulanger innovation. Some times there is a fine string lacing at the base, or back, of such necklines.
 Blouses which are cut to resem- hle surplices. without actually hav- ing surplice closings, are among the new tricks of the midseason show ings.
 Most of the surplice effects are ob- tained by bias slashes which are bound with self material. They make possible subtle drapinS of the waist and hipline and are signs of the tendency to suppress all fullness around hips and waistline.

 Last night as I was waiting on Main street for you to finish your bargain hunting at the stores which you said would only take . few min- utes but women like, failed to men- ton how many hours more. 'passes the time by giving our traffic the once-over. By the time you re- turned from tho wars couldn't help. but notice the following:
 Man who has imbibed too freely from the ''cup that cheers" looks anything but cheered. Is holding | one-man conversation as though in love or has money in the bank. Traffic sign flashes Go" to veht- cies. Doesn't believe in signs and 50 crosses street. Cars move slowly to give him plenty of room as he weaves a zig-zag course. Pauses in middle of street and gazes vacant ly about as though lost. h unaware that he is the center of much in- terest. Continues on way and bumps into fender of car parked at curb Shakes fiat at person in,>car and demands belligerently, Why don't yuh look where yuh going"
 Flivver that. was brand new in 1923 tries to pass large delivery truck. Toots horn to let truck know what's coming. Big Boy doesn't even know little Ford is on road. Flivver driver notices another bus coming towards him. Not enough room to pess 90 decides that tig trucks also have . right on the road and no use pushing 'em off. Falls back into line resignedly. Makes another attempt to pass and this time is successful. Looks back and grins derisively as flivver throws d wicked exhaust into face of truck radiator.
 Two bare headed youths in classy touring car drive slowly around Central park. Driver attends 10 business while companion is busy scanning faces of the opposite sex. Car stops beside couple of girls standing on curb waiting for jitney bus. A greeting Hello girls" brings nothing out cold glances as girls tuIn their back upon them. Buggy makes another trip around the park. An. other stop and the Hello girls" IS repeated IS two fiappers pass in front. Flappers return greeting, smiles. eiggles and engage in con- versation. After some coaxing ac- cept the invitation to ride.
 Roadster emerges from parking place and large sedan attempts to squeeze into vacant space. Driver heads machine in head first. Fvont end o. K. and about 2 inches from curb. Rear end 3 feet from it. Driver twists noble cranium abouf. stretches neck. cramps wheel, ani backs up. Stops quickly as rear fender is about to demolish lcft headlight of car behind. Goes for ward again. More wheel cramping. body contortion. etc. Becomes dis guested, decides that space is too small anyways. Will find better parking further on. Maybe. Has difficulty in getting out but finally manages without ss raping more tha, . foot of paint off fender of car in front.
 Another bus locking for parking place loses no time in taking advan- tage Of coveted space. Driver skill fully backs in. goes forward few feet and is neatly parked. A by stander smiltngly remarks. "Some need a ten acre lot while others can park in space that even a bahy carriage would have difficulty get ting out of."

PAY CUTS FATE
UP To SM0OT

The outcome of the fight to lower
salaries of $500 higher-paid Gov
ernment employees in Washington,
probably will be known today.
The House amendment to the
second deficiency appropriation bill
ordering the Personnel Classifica-
ton Board to cut the salaries by
total of $500, 900, Is being con.
sidered today by the Senate Ap-
preparations Committee.
Depends on SmOOt
If it is adopted by that com.
mittee, it probably will become law.
If, however, opponents of the cut
are able to win out in the com.
mittee, the Senate probably will
not adopt it. \.
The decision rests largely with
Senator Smoot of Utah, the tinan.
cial dictator of the Senate. Smoot
yesterday refused to comment on
the situation and so his attitude
is not known.
The bin probably will be reported
to the Senate today by che Appro-
priations Committee.
Even il the committee adopts
the amendment there will be a
fight on it in the Senate, though
the fight is unlikely to get very far.
BrOOkhart Opposed
Senator Brookhart of Iowa Is in
clined to oppose the reduction.
Yesterday he offered an amend.
ment to provide salary increases
carried in the bill he has had
pending most of the session to
amend the Welch salary act.
This amendment would provide
another salary increase to those
employees in the lower grades who
got only one increase out of the
Welch act. Brookhart's amend.
ment has little chance because it
will be subject to point OF order
by a single Senator.
If 1t is not adopted, however,
Brookhart is expected to vigorously
oppose the pay reduction.

'RACKETS' To Be
DENIED PHONES

Indicted bootleggers and gamblers
hereafter may find themselves with.
out telephone service.
This may follow as a result of an
offer made to the Washington po.
lice by Walter B. Clarkson, of the
Chesapeake and Potomac Telephone
Company, in reply to allegations be-
fore the Gibson investigating sub
committee that the corporation has
refused to aid in suppressing the
liquor and gaming rackets here.
Up to Police
''If the police will obtain indict-
.ments of any persons engaged in an
unlawful business, We will be only
too glad to refuse to give service to
such individuals" said Clarkson to-
day.
The official said the telephone
company could make no distinction
between those who apply for tele-
to learn if the business of the sub
scribers was legal or illegal, he said.
Upheld By Court
Seventy per cent of the bootleggers
and gamblers in Washington have
unlisted telephones, Clinton N How
ard, chairman Of the United Com
rnittee, for Law Enforcement, told
the Gibson subcommittee yesterday.
Police officials said they had tried
to obtain the addresses OF these un-
listed phones from the telephone
company, but without success.
Court decisions supported the tele-
phone company in it's refusal to give
the police this information, the sub
committee was informed.

Finally Burlingame took 1t to a

clared.

Investigating Committee will make
report before March / declaring
