DRIVERS Reject TERMS.
Pittsburgh Taxicab Operators Vote
Down Proposal, 1,153 to l.

PITTSBURGH, March Dr.
PittSburgh's striking taxicab drivers
late yesterday rejected, by a vote of
1883 to i. a settlement proposal Of
fered by the Parmelee Transportation
Co., operating the cabs. The terms
were submitted to the drivers following
series of conferences during the week
between the strikers executive commit
tee and cab company officials in the
Office of Mayor Charles H. Kline.
The drivers walked out on January
IL in furtherance of a demand for
larger commissions and recognition
of their union. The plan of settlement
submitted by the company was under
stood to have granted increased COM
missions, although not as great as the
drivers had asked. A system of COL
lective bargaining was offered in place
of union recognition.
Mayor Kline banned taxicabs from
Pittsburgh streets more than week
ago, following disorders centering about
cabs operated by strikebreakers.

ANT|-WAR FORMULA
READY FOR LEAGUE
JuristS Agree on Clause to
Harmonic Covenant and
Kellogg Pact.

BY the Associated Press.
GENEVA, March 1.-The committee
of jurists attempting to harmonic the
Kellogg pact accomplished one of the
most difficult parts Of their task yes
terday by agreeing on an amendment
to Article XII. This is the one article
of the covenant which leaves an OBJ
vious gap for employment of war as an
instrument of International policy.
The full committee adopted a sub
committee formula which prohibits re-
sort to war in any case. The formula
is as follows:
Pacific Means" Accepted.
Members of the League agree that
If there should arise between them any
dispute likely to lead to rupture they
will have recourse for its settlement to
pacific means only.
"If the disagreement continues the
dispute shall be submitted either to
arbitration or judicial settlement or to
inquiry of the Council. Members of
the League agree that they will in no
case resort to war for the solution of
their disputes"
The League of Nations Assembly will
be asked to approve this change the
next time it convenes.
An attempt by the Peruvian delegate,
Mariana Cornejo, to restrict what he
characterizeS as the dominance of great
powers in the council of the League
and in the Leagues decisions, was I'M
successful at the afternoon session.
Delegates Proposal Outlined.
The South American commended that
the five council seats held permanently
by five great powers give them the
master hand in that executive body.
and that the right which the council
now has, to decide in questions of in
ternal dispute without reference to the
assembly, secures dominance to the
council and therefore to the great
powers.

Washington Fashions

This is not the first time
we've written about formal aft
ernoon gowns, and it probably
will not be the last, for as the
winter advances We find that
there is more and more demand
for them, and correspondingly
they are getting lovelier and
more interesting.
AS we said once before, many
of these semi-formal gowns have
the best part of their decora-
ton above the waistline, so
that they will present a COM
plete picture when you sit at a
bridge table or a dining table.
They have many uses all the
way from a formal tea or to an
informal evening affair. They
are perfect for Sunday night,
for restaurant dining and for
the theater, as they may be
worn with or without hats.
Sometimes they have sleeves and
sometimes they haven't. Any
formal fabric makes lovely
gowns of this type, the favorite
being chiffon, velvet or metals:
A waistcoat effect appears
anywhere from street clothes to
evening as you see from one of
the frocks illustrated. This gown
is particularly lovely with a
waistcoat bodice of lace that is
studded occasionally with spark
ling rhinestones. The skirt is Of
heavy black chiffon that swings
close to the figure.
Both these frocks emphasize
the popular theme of contrast
ing trimming, for the other
gown is of black chiffon with
big open sleeves of black and
white chiffon in bands about an
inch wide. 1t has the cowl neck
line that is such a favorite and
Z it has a beautifully fitted skirt
that flares full below close hip
line. Both these gowns are mod
estly priced, and they are from
a Washington shop.
Miss La Vile will gladly an.
swer any question about these
frockS or about fashion If you
will call District $3.50, Extension
165, or write, sending q self
addr- ed, stamped envelope.
