SANTO DOMINGO
REVOLT NEWS
IS SCANTY

Lack Of authentic information
from American Minister Charles
B. Curtis, at Santo Domingo
City, Dominican Republic, con.
corning the reported overthrow
OF President Horacio Vasquez,
caused uneasiness at the State
Department today.
The department was officially
Informed that the Dominican
foreign minister called at the
American legation and requested
asylum for President Vasquez,
Nine. Vasquez, Vice President
Afonseca ard members of the
presidential suite. Only Nine.
Vasquez remained under the pro.
lection of the legation, however.
President Vasquez and the vice
president and party later sought
/ the protection of the fortress at
Santo Domingo City.
Rebels in Autos.
According to advices reaching
the State Department, representa-
tions were made by the foreign
minister that the lives of the
President and his wife and the
vice president were in danger
from revolutionists reported to be
approaching the capital by auto
mobile from the Santiago at
Monte Cristi, on the north coast
Of the republic.
Private adviceS received were to
the effect that the Vasquez gov
eminent had actually fallen, and
that a provisional president would
be selected by the revolutioniSts.
The revolution was a surprise
TO the Hoover administration, and
the situation was viewed with
considerable anxiety.
1t was feared the unrest in
Santo Domingo might spread to
Haiti, the other half of the island
where disorders recently have been
occurring. President Hoover's com.
mission of inquiry to Haiti leaves
Key West for Port au Prince,
Haiti, today on the light cruiser
Rochester.
The United States has treaty
with the Dominican republic SIM
liar to that with Haiti, under
which United States Marines are
now in control of the latter coun-
try while an attempt is being
made to form a representative
government.
It was considered possible
among observers here that Presi-
dent Hoover might take advantage
of the Dominican treaty to inter.
vene again in Dominican affairs,
or have the Haitian commission
extend its field of operations and
take in the whole island.
Marines were last in the Do
minican republic from 1915 to
1924.

after the sixth drunk had faced
him in semistupefied condition.

said the judge. lone of the
best cures I can suggest for

these drunken cases for about
30 days.

the glow that lovely mahogany,
well taken care of, develops.
Heavier mahogany or walnut
furniture-of the Chippendale
type, for examples best en-
sembled with rugs Of the type
shown at the lower right. This,
too, is an Oriental design. And
a rather heavy design.
But notice that it's not as
boldly figured as the Oriental
pattern at the lower left-the
pattern suggested for the heavy
Jacobean oak furniture.
English Rugs
Persian Oriental patterns are
right with Queen Anne furni-
ture, too. They used them in
those days. But another inter
esting type-particularly If your
room is consistently eighteenth
century throughout-iS the En-
gliSh floral rug.
Not an Oriental pattern at all,
but a definite realistic flower
design on a plain ground.
Walnut furniture, represent
ing no particular period but
with indications of various pc
RODS, also looks best with the
simpler orientals-or any do
mestic rug with Oriental feeling
in its design.
In fact, any rug with Oriental
design goes well with any furni-
ture-provided, of course, that
the type of design harmonizeS
with the type of furniture. Deli
cate designs with delicate or
formal furniture. Bolder, cruder
designs with the heavier, less
formal types Of furniture.

F ashiOns for
The Larger
Woman
BY WILMA LA VILE

The new fashions have been
very gracefully adapted for
larger women. Every once in q
while we hear someone say
that they are too large to wear
the new dresses, but on inveSti-
cation they find that new lines
are really easy to wear if wo-
men win only put them over
the correct foundation garment
and will adapt their eyes to the
unaccuStomed.
You can find a great many
dresses of silk crepe in Wash
ing shops, Semi-formal and suit
able for wear at all times Of the
day. They are cut moderately
high in the waistline or they
are graciouSly scanned so that
the waiStline is merely indi-
Gated rather than actually
belted or fitted. Hip lines are
always smooth and give a flat
appearance. The even hemline
is much better than the old un-
even hemline for a fuller fig
ure. Surplus closings are an
other touch that helps make
the new dresses waarable also.
Many of them are tied about
the waiStline or hipline, and so
are adjustable and easy to fit
about full hips.
Here are two splendid semi
formal dresses that will be good
for luncheon, afternoon or al
most any other daytime use.
One is of black satin and the
cutting of the hips is particu.
larry fortunate. Its new de-
tails are lace used at the neck
line and for gauntlet cuffs, The
other dress is of canton crepe
in a new reddish brown shade
that is very becoming. It has a
vestee Of contrasting beige lace
The 1abot and one-sided effect
make it very wearable and the
sleeves are Interestingly cut,
Both OF these dresses are from
Washington store. Tonnor-
row we will discuss afternoon
dresses for women.
Miss La Vile will gladly an.
SWer any question about these
dresses or about fashion IL Won

regarding the famous trio is
that Consuelo Morgan, now
Mrs. Benjamin Thaw, jr., wife
Of the first secretary Of the
United States embassy in Paris,
is leaving the French Capital
for London where her husband
has been transferred.
Magical MOrgans
Mrs. Thaw is the only one Of
the Magical Morgans" upon
whom washington still has a
legitimate claim. The other two,
the ViscounteSs Furness (Thelma
Morgan) and Mrs. Reginald
Vanderbilt Gloria Morgan),
have transferred their allegi-
ance entirely to the other side
of the water. Lady Furness, as
the wife Of one Of the wealthieSt
landowners in Great Britain,
naturally is absorbed in her hus-
bands country, and Mrs. Van
derbilt, since the death of REG
gie," has made her home chiefly
iii Paris or at her magnificent
villa at Biarritz. Lady Furness
has a town house in London
where her hospitality has be-
come famous. Her two sisters,
Mrs. Thaw and Mrs. Vanderbilt,
have been frequent visitors
there, and both have large cir
Gle of acquaintance in the Eng
liSh capital.
Lived Here
Until they were sent to Paris
the Thaws lived in Washington,
where they were leaders in the
younger smart set. They were,
however, delighted with their
Paris assignment, and both have
been extremely happy on the
banks of the Seine, where Mrs.
Thaw, by the way, as the Count
ess de Maupas. had made her
home for several years prior to
her marriage to ben" Thaw.
Replacing the Thaws in Paris
will be Mr.. and Mrs. Robert
MacGregor Scotten, the latter
until recently assistant chief OF
the division of current infor-
nation at the State Depart
ment.
Mrs. Scotten until her mar.
riage last December was Anne
Boyd Grain. Her father, the
late Colonel Boyd, was at one
time military attache at our
embassy in Paris and his
daughter, the present Mrs.
Scotch. upon returning to the
French capital will find herself
on familiar ground. Colonel
Boyd was in Paris at the time
of the entrance Of the United
States in the World War and
later served as aide to General

story regarding the new
President of the little South

Coming here as tiny tots they
scarcely remembered thu cir

the thrills of a great adven-

daughters cf the President OF
the Republic gave the adven'
'ture added glamour.
In Bogota they discovered

architecture, was as old-faSh-
