Linen, cotton crepe. shantung,
silk serge and crepe marocain are
tie favorite fabrics this year, each
fabric lending a greater or lesser
note Of formality to the frock,
thus constituting a certain scale
OF values In this category Of dress.
Brownsville herald. [volume] (Brownsville, Tex.) 1910-current, 1930-06-15

So far as style goes, these OPEN
air dresses are less form-fitting
than the current town clothes worn
oy smart women. which means that
almost invariably they need the
addition Of a belt, usually Of the
Same fabric.

While plain materials seem to
.ead in favor, some very discreet
~ ints are pleasing TO look at, but
the design must always be small
and inconspicuous. Large designs
would seem to endeavor to give
the frock a formal town look.

dy New Open All Frocks'
BY JEAN PATOU
NEA Service Writer

PARIS, June IA An evening
lress excites admiration because OF
iS sumptuousness and its regal
style, an afternoon ensemble at
tracts attention by its chic and
personality, and a morning suit
because Of It's impeccable tailored
line. But for subtle sednctiveness
nothing can equal the simple OPEN
ar irock, because It retains the
qualities Of naturalness and sup
pleness that always enhance wo-
mems charms.
1t may astonish the u~nobservant
or the uniformed in dress lore to
see what a relatively important
pace that category OF simple
f-ocks. known this season as open
air frockS, occupies in the ward
robe OF the well-dressed woman.
without SEEMING to differ in their
essential lines from any Of the
other types Of dress, the undefin-
able charm attached TO anything
simple Is even more apparent in
these models this year than ever
before. Even though the cut may
be complicated. 1t Is disguised in
order to achieve that unsophistic-
ated air inherent to this category
Ct dress.
Costumes Are Varied
Although simplicity Is the fun
danental feature Of these open-air
locks. they show a really quite ex-
tensive variety Of styles to select
from. Trimming in a discreet meas
me Is permitted but it must never
be too overbearing.
Large-brimmed.' supple hats are
the only complement to these
oDen-air frockS. Made Of simple
ard often natural-c olored straws,
trimmed with a groSgrain or vel
vel tie, they complete the summer
symphony evoked by the frock It.
self.
There mus also be no evidence
o. a search for complicated color
effects or combinations in order
shat these frocks may retain their
cir Of simplicity. There is a mark
cd preference for white and all
cff-whites. but all light colors are
good too. Red and blue are usually
used TO outline collar and cuffs
v-here neutral shades are favored.

McDonough Says Issues Are Real; Promises Hard Hitting Campaign;
 Bartlett Proud He's Factory Man

jects now before the city, notably the water service extension plan, and made it known tat Attorney McDonough has furnished the legal guidance to the water board and its advisory committee in the steps which have been taken thus far This project, alone, the mayor re- marked, will involve more than s3,- 000,000.
 Bartlett Addresses Women Donald L. Bartlett, candidate for the republican nomination, spoke at rally at the home of Mrs. Buell. B. Bassette of Emmons place, citing his six years experience in the con- mon council and his position as a factory executive as a basis on which he asks election. He struck out at the campaign being wagcd against him on the ground that he is a factory man, ex- pressing pride in the fact that he Is so employed. The candidate also urged a solid republican front on election day, irrespective of whcth- CT he or his rival. George A. Quig- ley, is the nominee of the G. 0. P.
 Proud to Be Factory Man
 Speaking of reference being made that he is factory man., Mir Bartlett said:
 >'1Iithcrto, candidates against whom this argument has been ad' vanced have been told that the best way to meet it is to say nothing about it. I don't believe in that I intend to face it squarely. More than that, I see it as an argument which really favors me because am a factory man. l am proud te be one.
 Here in New Britain we have some of the largest factories of theil kind in the world. Not the largest factories in the world, but the largest of their kind. The branches of some of them extend into foreigr countries. Now these factories could not have attained this eminence il the men at the head of them Wert numbskulls and dunderheads. Ant if I were not capable of properly handling the work delegated to me I would not be retained. But I heal of no movement to have me dis. charged"
 No reduction in municipal costs within q period of two years now appears likely, Candidate Bartlett admitted, but he pledged his effort; to that end, if elected, saying:
 Right now l do not think re. duction can sensibly be effected within two years. If it is at al possible. l would do it. If elected intend to strive to bring a reduc tion but I am not one who make' promises, only to let them go un fulfilled. I am making no promise 1 of any kind. It is being said that have promised one of my manager a certain position if I am elected It is false.'
 Concluding his talk, the canddat' made a plea for a united party ol election day. On this q point, h. said:
 No matter whether I am yictori ous or another candidate wins thi primary, I want you to remembe that the man elected is the republi can candidate for mayor and wan you to give him your vote ol April S."

Democratic Candidate for Mayor Makes First Po- litical Speech = Repub- lican Makes Plea for a United Party On Elec- tion Day, Regardless of Nominee.
I'm going to conduct a clean

. I'm going to conduct a clean campaign. Mud -slinging is not my weapon: but I'm going to conduct a hard hitting campaign" Attorney r. F. McDonough, dcmorcatic can didate for mayor, promised a gath erng of several hundred men and women at the party's headquarters 2" in the Erwin hotel building last night.
 The candidate speaking for the first time to political gathering . since he declared his candidacy dwelt for the most part on organi- 1ation work. the task of making new voters, and the organization of election day machinery.
 Says There Arc Real Issues
 I'm steeled for the fray he as- sured. I'm ready to go and I pro- pose to bring the issues, the real issues, before the public for deci- sion. The mere fact that a man wants to be the mayor of this city is not an issue, but there are is sues, and real ones. I have been tod They're getting ready for you. Good. Others have gotten ready for me in the past. They have told me: The republican women are organiz- ing and card -indexing the voters, and they arc going to get out every vote I have never been afraid of what our women will do. I have seen them work before. I have never and will never grant that there is q superiority on the part of the republican women and an jnferiority on the part of ours.'
 Attorney McDonough made it known that his decision to become a candidate was made only after he was convinced that Mayor Pao- 'nessa would not alter his plans and run again. He lauded the outgoing mayor and praised his administra- ton.
 The candidate spoke for some time on the qualifications man should possess to fit him for the of flee of mayor. These, he said, in ,clude Independence, experience, executive ability and knowledge of the city and the needs of it's pco- pie.
 No "High-Hats" in Party Judge William F. Mangan, dcm- ocratic state central committeeman for this district, urged support of the candidate, citing several in {. stances in which aggressiveness and fearlessness had been displayed to a degree which, in the opinion of the speaker, branded his fellow at torney as the proper type 10 be mayor.
 And there's another thing l want to speak of There is some talk that our candidate is high hat. There are no 'high-hats' in the democratic party. Our principle is: You're just as good as I am, and I'm just as good as you are. You can talk with our candidate. and always could talk with him-he's easy of approach, ln fact all of us are. It's really anus ing to hear this talk of 'high-hat Pat McDonough couldn't be high hat if he wanted to. He was born on Grove street, and lived too close to 'Nigger Hill.'
 Calling on Mayor Paonessa for q | few remarks, Judge Mangan pre- sented the mayor as a man whose administrations have been some thing for which the democrats may feel proud.
 The mayor discussed the impor- tance of participating in elections and having a voice in the govern ncnt. He told of the important pro.
