This ingle-breaSted suit was

Partisan
Gowns for
Evening
BY WILMA LA VILE

It is not often that we have
a chance in Washington to see
a large display Of Paris gowns.
One shop has recently shown
many of them, however, and
still has them on hand. They
also have exact copies made
in America. These copies are
so good that we would almost
as soon have them as the origi-
mails. They inspire us with con-
fidence in the American copy.
iSt, and assure us that we
really get good fashion in the
clothes we buy, even If they
are moderately priced.
We have chosen two out
standing evening gowns from
this collection to sketch for
you. They are very Partisan in
their appearance, and they are
typical of the designers who
created them. One is from
Jeanne Lanvin. She is famous
for her youthful fashions and
she created romantic gowns
long before any Of the other
designers sponsored them. This
gown is of black taffeta
with a tightly fitted bodice and
a very full long skirt. Flowers
are cut out of the skirt and
filled in with net. A silver
slip is worn underneath and
shows dimly through the net
flowers. Although this frock is
black it is very young looking
and will be very lovely on q
person in her teens or under
80.
The other gown is much
more sophisticated but no less
Charming. It is from Goupy,
who is known for very lovely
and original lines and for
charming combinations OF color.
This gown is of black velvet
with very graceful and roman
tic lines, It is cut very low in
the back and the large bow
on the back is repeated again
at the front of the shoulder
This gown has been quite popu-
lar ever since Goupy showed it
six weeks or so ago and IL mas
been copied by many American
stores. Both these gowns are
available in the originals and
the copies.
Miss LaViIIe will gladly an
swer any question about these
gowns or about fashions 1t dG On

HuntingClub
Announces
Program
Drought Effects Early Au-
tumn Hunts Planned by
Riding and Hunt Club

Sending up a little prayer
for rain, the board Of the
Riding and Hunt Club is
going ahead with its plans
for the annual fall hunts
which are scheduled to be-
gin the first Saturday in No
vember.
The persistent dry weather
had played havoc with the
early hunting program, but
the club board feels conf
dent that q few days Of rain
between now and the first
of the month will make it
possible for the hounds to
trail the elusive Mr.. Rey-
nard.
Hunt Dates
Melvin Hazen, secretary OF the
Riding and Hunt Club, an
nounced yesterday that the first
hunt would be held November l.
According to the plans, a live
fox hunt will be on the books for
the early morning of the first,
starting at z o'clock, and a drag
hunt for the afternoon, starting
at 8 o'clock. Major w. M.
Grimes will continue as master
for the occasion.
The club has engaged q train
ed huntsman, now making his
headquarters at the Bradley
Hills Farm, in Maryland, where
the hounds are being kenneled.
The expert has already begun
schooling the dogs and expects
to have them in the pink OF con-
dition by the time the season
opens. Members of the club who
wish to keep their horses at the
farms will be able to do so, as
the stables have been put into
condition this fall for their care.
Mr.. Hazen believes that
despite the drought the club
will be able to go ahead with
its plan even If the hoped-Ior
rain fails to materialize. The
morning hunts, at all events,
will be held according to sched-
ule as the dew makes it pos
sible for the dogs to pick up
the foxes scent. Foxes, by the
way, are unusually plentiful
this season in the countryside
surrounding the Bradley Hills
Farm. Interested persons have
made it their business to pro
tect the vixens and young cubs
throughout the summer. Sew
eral dens have been located,
promising excellent sport.
A number Of the club mem
bers have already sent their
horses in from the country 30
the Riding and Hunt Club
stables on P Street. Among the
early arrivals are the timber
toppers" owned by Mr.. and
Mrs. Eugene Meyer, jr., and
Major Harry Leonard. Mrs. Ruth
Hanna McCormick's horses
her stables are just across the
street from the club-are here
and her two children, Katrina
and Tommy" will be on hand
in time for the first hunt.
Among the clubs forced to
cancel their early fall hunt
ing program is the Fairfax
Hunt Club. of which Roland
Dawson, formerly of the Riding
and Hunt Club, is manager.
Smith Bowman, of Sunset Hills
Farms, near Fairfax, Va, mas
ter, announced this week that
no hunts will be held until
after the next rain.

HITS RAIL MERGERS
BYPOOL|NG STOCKS
|. C. C. Report Is Read to
Senate Committee by
Eastman.

BY the Associated Press.
Joseph b. Eastman of the Interstate
Commerce Commission today read to
the Senate interstate commerce COM
mittee a commission report unanimously
favoring legislation to prohibit con-
solidation or iunification of railroads
through pooling of stocks by holding
companies.
Eastman suggested that in addition
to providing redress through court in
junction, Congress should provide per-
sonal penalties, such as fines and
perhaps Imprisonment" for such unifica-
ton OF properties
Testifying on the Couzens resolution,
to suspend all consultations,
including those direct linkings now au-
thorized by thescommission, as well as
overhead mergers through holding
companies, Eastman said that If the
commission Endorsed the Couzens pro-
posal In its entirety 1T would be de-
claring it doubted its own ability to
Judge wisely what Is in the pubic IN
terest."
Report Sent to Committee.
The report read BY Eastman was sent
today to a House committee, which has
under consideration a resolution virtu-
ally identical with the Couzens proposal.
The report said, however, that Chair
man McManamy of the commission in
dorsed the resolution "in its entirety"
The report said on behalf of the en-
tire commission, that under the exist
ing law such consultations and unifica-
tons as the commission may authorize
can only be authorized after the COM
mission has found that they will be in
the public interest.
Under these circumstances" added
the report, IAN expression of opinion by
the commission that there is no need
for the suspension of it's authority as
to these matters would amount to an
expression of opinion that it doubts its
own ability to determine wisely, on a
record made in public hearing after due
notice. what is in the public interest
and to act accordingly"
Differences of opinion within the
commission have existed, the report
said, though many unifications author
lied have resulted from unanimous de-
cision.
The report pointed to the merger of
the Great, Northern and Northern Pa
cific railroads as an example of differ
ences of opinion within the body.
