Circular Lines Hold Favor

In the making of the graceful little
informal afternoon frOckS of dark
silk print which have been so very
popular and which give every promise
of continued vogue for midseason
and early fall. the trend is for one
circular ruffle to call for another. In
other words, fr0cks show tendency

picture illustrates the idea.
Here we have a very smart styling
given to a green-On-black. print silk
which carries out consistent circular
movement throughout the capelet, the
sleeves and the skirt This manipula-
ton, which strives TO relate the frock
or costume through repetition of a
given treatment, is observed by most
designers. For instance pleated

There is quite rivalry between
pleated and circular treatments this
season. However, from the standpoint
of that which is newest, circular cuts
win out. 1t is interesting to note in
how may directions the circular
Zines extend. One sees the, un-
dulating grace of circular ruffies in
the very smart peplum effects which
style so many of this seasons silk
frocks. The sleeve with circular
flare from the elbow is among the
many quaint modes which fashion has
resurrected from the past.
Even pleated skirts have gone cir

RECORD MANGANESE
IMPORTS REPORTED
U. S. Purchases for First Half Of
1880 Are Largest in
History.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
United States imports of manganese
ore during the first half of 1890 were
larger than for any first half year on
record excepting the comparable period
of 1926, the Commerce Department
announces.
Total incoming cargoes amounted to
$1,000 long tons, representing an actual
manganese content of It's, 389 long tons,
as compared with 342,959 long tons,
with an actual manganese content Of
1850 long tons for the first six
months of 1929 In that period, how
ever, conSumptive demands of the steel
industry, operating near capacity, were
considerably higher than now. The cur
rent years increase in imports in the
face of stagnant world manganese
market is believed by the trade to be in
fulflllment of contracts made last year.
Russia, Brazil, the Gold Coast and
India furnished approximately SO per
cent of the total during the period, with
the first named holding the largest
share of AZ per cent. Shipments from
that source showed gain of more than
10000 tons over receipts for the same
period of 1929 Russia has again
reached the position of the worlds lead
ing producer and exporter of the ore,
and during the fiscal year ended Sep
TEMPER 81, last, SET q new postwar
production record OF 1,256,788 metric
tons
Notwithstanding the Russian compe:
tition and internal economic conditions,
Brazil's contribution to the United
States amounted to 107,700 tons, ap-
proXimately 80 per cent of the total.
This compared with 130,85O tons i'm
ported from that country during the
first half of 1929.
For the time being the Gold Coast
definitely has replaced India as the
third most important source of United
States receipts, and indications are that
imports from this source will continue
to mount as long as favorable market
exists. First half imports from this sec
ton amounted to 81 BOT, compared with
but 5,606 for the same period of last
year.
