President Emilio Portes ellis an

discuss the matter with Catholic au-

The Presidents announcement
Tuesday night opened the way for a

The military revolution of March

Portes ellis statement was in an

The exact date on which the dis

4FACE TERMS
FOR FAKE BILLS
Plead Guilty to Charges of
Counterfeiting.

Two Chicago and two Kokomo
men, indicted on counterfeiting
charges, who entered pleas of guilty
in federal court late Tuesday, will
be sentenced Saturday morning by
Federal Judge Robert c. Baltzell.
They are James Ganor and
Samuel Ball, Chicago private de-
tectiveS, and William c. CleIand
and Harry c. Powell, Kokomo.
Cleland and Powell obtained a
quantity of counterfeit $50 bills
when they sold some liquor, George
R. Jeffrey, district attorney, de-
clared.
Jeffrey said the government was
prepared to prove they disposed of
part of the bogus money for liquor
and narcotics, then Cleland gave
his share to Powell who had it IN
his possession when Ganor and Ball
appeared and took them in charge.
On the way to Chicago with their
prisoners. Ball and Ganor are al
legged to have agreed to free the two
if they could obtain a $4,000 bride.
Efforts to borrow the money led to
an investigation and arrest of all
four men.
John K. Stroh, former Indianapo-
lis policeman, convicted by a jury
of transporting a stolen automobile
TO Indianapolis from Florida in 1926,
also will be sentenced Saturday.
Robert Prater, held in connection
with the Pettis dry goods store rob-
berry last year, was released from
jail on his own recognizance by
Baltzell, who said he had learned
Mrs. Prater was in destitute circum-
stances and had no milk to feed
their baby.

dents statement. 1t was recalled
that strong pressure previously was
brought to bear on both the church
and the government to discuss the
religious question but without avail.
United States Ambassador Dwight
w. Morrow also exerted his strong
est efforts unofficially to bring about
a solution, likewise without success.
Nevertheless, it generally was felt
that the new move was the most
promising since the religious laws
unfrocking priests, aboliShing mon
astic orders, and confiscating
church properties went into effect
on July 81, 1926, and that it would
probably bring a satisfactory solu-
ton, although perhaps not for some
time.

Have varied
havOrS
on your table

ONE of the greatest joys IN
, eating is In being able to taste
first one flavor. then another
to contrast something sweet.
for instance, after the delicate
salt of some other food; or the
clear tang of juicy fruit with a
piece of cake.
1t is sugar that helps these
delightful contrasts most. 1t
lends emphasis to other flavors
by the sweetness of its own.
Then it does something more
accents the true flavor of the
food it blends with. A sprin-
king of powdered or confec-
TONERS sugar over Strawberries
softens their acid, and clarifies
their flavor. Or a small portion
of sugar on peas In cooking,
makes them taste more richly
like peas.
If you have varied health
foods on your table, you have
varied flavors milk, fruits,
vegetables, cereals. meats, SIM
pie desserts. For greater joy In
eating, flavor with sugar. The
best cooks are generous with
sugar. The Sugar Institute.

Belt
Ornaments
Sport Hats
BY FRANCES PAGET,

Copyright, 1929, by Style SourceS)
NEW YORK, April 10.--Among
the recent imports one notices that
leather belts of narrow width as a
trimming for the sports hats are
much in evidence in Paris and will
undoubtedly be feature of the
coming season here.
Marie Christine has a brimmed
shape of black betting with the up
turned front brim quite shallow and
the low side brimS with the trim
consisting of small veil over the
eyes.
A great deal of betting ribbon is
being used for hats in Paris. and
for the first tailored hats it is
thought that it will be quite impor-
tant here.
Shallow Crown by PatOu
The shallow crown is used by
Patou on a black felt with the up
turned front and wider sides with
the trim of black satin ribbon
bow low at one side.
Alphonsine again uses the black
panama bengal for a medium sized
shape that is an attractive poke
with wide side and is trimmed in a.
black satin ribbon bow very low on
the side.
Thenault for a sports or tailored
hat has used a gray green wide side
straw with a leather thong laced
through the crown and down on one
side
Panama Bengal Used
Panama bengal is used by Agnes
Tor short front shape showing the
eyebrow line and long on each side.
1t is trimmed in orange velvet rib
bon that is tied in a bow at the side
back and laid on the the brim.
The filet straw body which the
Paris milhners have used to lay over
felt bodies is used here in a num-
Der Of ways and is extended over the
felt edge so that it forms trans
parent fange. A satin bow at the
crown base makes the trimming.

Maid Less
ofProblen
Than Boss
By MRS. WALTER FERGUSON


The industrial department Of the
national Y. w. c. A. called a recent
conference to discuss the servant
problem" One of the results was
the announcement that the elimina-
ton of the words mistress" and
maid" might help things.
1t won't help much, I'll be bound.
although it is step in the right di-
reCtion.
We have a servant problem with
us mainly because houSework is
looked upon as a degrading calling,
and for that the American house
wife has herself to thank.
After marriage she makes violent
efforts to get ahead financially, so
that she may acquire a maid. In
stead of speaking of home-making
as if it we're an important and USE
full occupation, she assumes the at
I titude that it is a sort CT serfdom.
Scorns Her Maid
Then, instead of feeling toward
her helper as does the doctor to-
ward his inferno, as if she were a
pupil and assistant friend, she
Scorns her maid as an underling.
Women are not the true diplomats
they have been reported to be. II
that we're so, they should get along
more smoothly with their employees.
/ A large number. put in position
of authority, pose as dictators.
The person who has washed her
own dishes for five years and then
gets somebody to do that job for her
is not satisfied. She will, nine times
out of ten, insist that the girl go
through the exact gestures at dish
washing that she did. (And there
are many ways Of washing dishes, as
every woman knows)
Insists on Being Boss
Not only that, but she will insist
that every spoon and skillet shall
stay in the place she has selected
for it, quite overlooking the fact,
after she has been employed, the
kitchen should be the maids do
main. Too many mistresseS want to
regulate the trifling details of the
kitchen. as we'll as queen it in the
parlor.
And though girl may have
splendid qualities and far more
native intelligence, some mistresses
are quite likely to treat her as a
mere scullion. They do not confer
with their helpers; they boss them.
And often they try to work them
to death.
Some of the most hard-boiled
souls in the world are the beauti-
fully dressed women in fine homes.
Get to know them better and you
can see What the maids are up
against. It isn't the servant who is
the problem; it's more likely to be
| the mistress.
