The Jacket theme is as smart
in the evening mode as 1t ever
was, perhaps more so. Accom-
panying some evening gowns,
we find jackets that are really
coats, and will serve as q wrap
in summer. With others, the
Jacket is merely a little capelet
or bolero that transforms the
gown into q dinner dress, per-
haps with short sleeves.
For summer, jacket trocks
will be better than ever, worn
on the street., for sports, for
afternoon, for evening.
We've sketched two charm

Taffeta is a favorite with the

White, black, light blue and

Herschel v. johnson Will
Be Head of Mexican
Affairs Here

Washington'S bachelor group
will have an attractive addi-
ton in Herschel v. johnson,
now serving as first secretary
at the American embassy in
Mexico, who will come here In
the late Spring to take Arthur
Bliss Lanes place as chief OF
the division Of Mexican affairs
in the State Department.
Mr.. johnson is described as
tall and blond--and most at
tractive. And the fact that he
is unmarried will make his de-
mand in washington immediate.
Popular Here
It is with regret, however,
that society bids farewell to
Mr.. and Mrs. Lane. The
former has just been named as
counselor and charge d'affaires
in Mexico. Mr.. Lane, before
being chief of Mexican affairs
here, served at the embassy in
Mexico. He qualities in the
particular what President
Hoover recently stressed as an
essential in our ENJOYS to Latin
countries, namely the ability
to talk their languages. Spanish
is easier for him than Eng
lish.
Mrs. Lane has been very
popular in Washington. She
was the former Cornelia T.
Baldwin, Of New York. Her
sister, the former Margaret
Baldwin, is the wife Of Stanley
Hawks, also Of the foreign SER
vice and well known in the
Capital.
Who Are They?
With the general Shake-up in
the foreign service Of our Gov
ernment, the fact comes to
mind that two Assistant Secre-
taries of State will have to be
appointed by President Hoover.
One to succeed Nelson T. John
son, now minister to China, and
the other to succeed William r.
Castle, jr., who recently as
sumed his duties as Ambassador
to Japan.

Here to supervise the com.

Earle, secretary Of public
works for Great Britain,
who arrived in New York
yesterday with Lady Earle.
Plans for the structure
have been approved by the

declares he expects to have
the building ready for oc-
I cupancy as soon as possible.
!. He will personally supervise
!. the furnishing of the build

!: ing and gardens were de-
signed by Sir + q W In
Lutyens, British architect,
and are declared by experts

their kind.
/. LONDON FURNITURE
L Furnishings for the embassy
were selected by Sir Lionel, as.
sisted by Lady Lindsay, wife OF
the new ambassador, some
months ago in London. They
will be extremely Sumptuous in
keeping with the general plan
of the architect.
Only the pictures Of the royal
family now hanging in the old
embassy building on Connect1'
cut Avenue will be taken to the
new. The pictures include
among others the portrait OF
Queen Victoria as a young girl
hanging at the head OF the
grand stairway. Other decora-
stions and all the furniture from
the old building will be disposed
of in Washington.
According to the usual pro
.cedure the new ambasSador1al
family supply pots and pans for
the extensive embassy kitchens
and, of course, certain knick-
knacks of their. own. The Brit
.ish government is taking care OF
the rest.
Perishable Goods
= Pots and pans, Lady Lindsay
explains. are too perishable to
be taken into consideration by
the government. 1t would in
fvolve too much bookkeeping on
the part Of the home office to
keep track of sauce pans and
skillets burned by careless cooks.
= Lady Lindsay expects to be
able to establish her family in
the new building in June. The
LindsayS are planning to re-
main in Washington through
out the summer and in the fall
will be ready for the opening
of the first season in their gor-
gegous new home.
A staff of 16 servants, many
of them brought from England,
will be needed to properly run
the establishment. The chef,
however, says Lady Lindsay, will
be an American, and so will

 GRIP ON EUROPE
General Carmona- of Portugal
 Joins PlSudSki and MuSSOlini

Paris, Sept. Il (UP)-The sway of the dictator in Europe, instead of declining, is spreading and growing more powerful.
 To confirm this. students of inter. national politics point to the an- nouncement that Portugal may be considered to have stepped definitely into line with the oth Ter nations of the old world which are governed by the iron rule of the individual, such as Mussolini.
 General Carmona, for years the energetic, military mind eAs president of Portugal, entered the ranks of the dictators when, through the agency of his president of council, De Ol1- vera, he announced that a party of national union would be formulated to guard against the revolutionary plots which have so frequently shak en~ Portugal. In other words, this will be a dictatorship supported by a political group with ideas largely resembling those of neighboring Spain, where one-manr,. rule has existed for nearly decade already.
 IS Revolutions,
 Portugal has had IS revolutions in as many years and General Carmona. according to advices received in the chacellories here, is determined to try and extend the period of com parative calm which the country has enjoyed under his rule, and to do that it is necessary, in his view. to tighten the grip on the whole na- tional political organization. Ever since, two or three years ago, Car mona quelled the sudden revolt at Oporto, his prestige has increased among nationalists in his country and the present move was foreseen by international observers.
 When General Primo De Rivera, the strong man of Spain, died in Paris about six months ago while on vacation, certain circles believe his passing would mark the first breach in the bulwarks of one-man rule in

NAL DAUGHERTY
 IN DIFFICULTIES
Former U. s. Attorney Generals Brother Goes Into Bankruptcy

Columbus, O., Sept. Il P-An in- voluntary petition in bankruptcy WAS drawn up today against Nal $. Daugherty, brother of Harry M. Daugherty. U. S. attorney general in the Harding cabinet.
 Claims totaling s77,237.51 were listed in the petition prepared for filing in federal court today by At torney General Gilbert Bettman Of Ohio. Daughetry, according to the petition. has admitted his inability to pay his debts and consented to be adjudged a bankrupt.
 The claims include s52,0oo for promissory notes to the Ohio State Bank. of which Daugherty formerly was president, and s25,000 for sim liar notes to the Peoles and Drovers Bank. Both banks failed last sum- mer.
 State Superintendent of Banks O. c. Gray, in charge of the litigation of the defunct banks, and Glenn M. Pine were the petitioning creditors. Pine claims Daugherty owes him s53751.
 Attorney General Bettman said Daugherty owns 705 shares of Ohio State Bank stock, making him sub- ject to double liability.
 Nal Daugherty came into promi- hence in 1924 when he was cited for contempt of the United States senate for refusing to let senate in vestigators inspect the books of the Midland Bank of Washington. of which he was president. The lnves- tigators had heard rumors that funds from the leasings of the Tea pot Dome and Elk Hills oil fields might be on deposit in the bank,
 The Midland Bank later was con- solidated with the Fayette County bank to form the Ohio State Bank.

 DEVASTATE CROPS
Government Predicts Lowest
 Yield in Past 20 Years

Washington. Sept. Il R>-Inroads of the drought have forced the de- partment of agriculture to predict the lowest crop yield in twenty years, with the possible exception of 1921.
 The August report issued yester- day pointed to the continuation in August of the record-breaking dry wave, and its extension with injury to crops into states that had not previously suffered.
 With the exception of potatoes, sweet potatoes and a few other crops, food products shortage has not become pronounced as yet but the corn crop, chief victim of the long dry spell, was forecast at only 1888. 100000 bushels, the smallest since 1901. This indicated yield re- suit of the intense heat in August. The actual corn shortage was esti- mated at moro than 700,000,000 bushels.
 A different picture was presented by the departments prediction of the wheat, oats and barley crops, however, with the estimates for spring wheat increased since Aug ust by l7,oo0,o00 bushels, oats by 75,0o0,0o0 bushels and barley by 17,oo0,o00 bushels.
 Wheat production was estimated at s37,761, ,0o0 bushels. compared with S05,790,ooo bushels last year. Of this 5s73s2,ooo bushels is win ter wheat. The oats crop was fore cast at 1.3so,ss2,oo0 bushels with the condition at S0.3 per cent

SULPHUR USED IN
 MAKING OF SOAP
Coal Gas Product Has Beneficial
 Result in Diseases

Cincinnati, O., Sept. Il P-The sulphuric smell in coal gas has been converted into a medicinal soap at Ohio State university. Results of one years experiments with this soap were reported to the medical section of the American Chemical society today by pr. Emery R. Hay hurst, professor of hygiene.
 He said the soap is made from a new kind of sulphur which was dis covered a few years ago by the Kop- pers Research company while re- moving sulphur and other impurities from coal gas.
 This sulphur resembles moderately moist clay. It differs from other sul- phurs in being composed of finer parties, all of them under six ten thousandths of an inch in diameter.
 Tried On Family
 Twenty-Five per cent of sulphur was mixed with Castile soap and per fumed. At first it was tried on mem bers of his own family and on those of a few scientists.
 No harmful effects appearing, it was then tried on a wide variety of persons, from a baby camp to ma ions. Prof. Hayhurst said it was found free of damaging effects to scalp, hair or nails, and did not sen- sitize the skin except for causing slight chapping in few instances.
 Its effects were remarkable,' he reported, "in practically all cases en- countered of simpler chronic skin disease like eczema, acne and facial blemishes."
 Three manufacturers of plated materials informed Prof. Hayhurst that the soap, appeared to cure plat CTS rash and one concern reported that after a siege of machinists' boils lasting about five years, the soap eradicated them within three months.
 Hay Fever Research
 Progress toward discovering ir pollens the mysterious substances which cause hay fever was reported by Marjorie B. Moore and Edmond E. Moore of the Swan Myers com pany of Indianapolis.
 They have separated from extracts of ragweed and other pollens sub stances which they said appeared tc contain the essence of the irritant | These substances are composed mostly of nitrogen and solids.
 The Moores plan to subdivide the guilty substances still further in the hope of completely isolating the ir- 1itant.
 Their separations are made by picking out of droplets of the pol. len extracts thin films that are only about a millionth of an inch thick This is done by absorption, the pro- perty some clements have of attach. ing to their surfaces a layer of g different substance only few mole cules in thickness.
