They've Put
STYLE
into
SUMNER
SU1TS
Elite keeps it there
season after season

No longer is the Summer suit something
that looks like a cross between potato sack
and suit of paJamas. Clever manufacturers
have put Just as much smartness, Just as much
style into their Summer suits as their regular
wooden suits ever had
But there is only one way to keep that "just
out of the box look, and that is to have your
Summer suits Numbered with that clean-cut
freshness that men like on days when the
mercury is trying to come out the top.
How dove doit? The famous Elite Controlled
Method takes care of that Only the purest,
creamy suds are used in washing and MANY
rinsings in fresh, raln-soft water carry the dirt
away. Then comes the special part of our
service-expert operators press your suit with
the utmost care and skill The hang of the
collar, the set of the lapes, the creases in the
trousers-all must be perfect before your suit
comes back to YOU
Year after year we see the same Summer
suits come back to us. Isn't that proof enough
that Elites way not only makes Summer suits
look better, but actually last longer?
Flannels and Woolens Come
Back Like New
By the famous Jensen-Woelfe Process, exclu-
slve with Elite in Washington, hanneIs and
woolens, Summer sweaters, too, come back as
soft and clean as new
All this extra service at not one penny of
extra cost. Keep cooler and happier these hot
days. Just pick up the phone and ask for
Potomac OO4O Or hail one of our yellow auto
mobiles. Or Just give the suits to the Elite
man when he calls for the family wash.

ASK QUOTA ON
JAPANESE
U. S. Chamber of Commerce
Studies Recommendation;
Relations Would Improve

A recommendation to place
Japanese immigration on a quota
basis similar to that applying to
European will be discussed Fri
day at a meeting of the immi.
grafton committee Of the United.
States Chamber of Commerce.
Backed by California business
men in the national chamber, the
resolution proposes removal Of
the present discrimination eXer-
cised against Japanese and urges,
establishment of the quota sys-
tenn.
Called Tactful Move
According to sponsors OF the
resolution, such action would not
only improve relations between
Japan and the United States, but
would restrict Japanese immigra-
ton more effectively than at
present.
They point out that whereas
japanese authorities now take
uCCIe interest IN preventing AcSdA
entry of Japanese laborers into
this country, they would cooper
ate with the Government to
stop this practice if the quota
system were put in operation.
LabOrerS Only
Under such a system, it is
estimate that Japan would have
quota of about 1876 and China
105. 1t would be applied only to
laborers, as ministers, profeS-
sional men and students have al,
ways been admitted.
In presenting the resolution,
its hackers point out that ex-
port trade with Japan for the
last seven years has averaged
$619,343,3 1886 per year and with
China $248,268.857 yearly. This
trade would be increased, they
believe, if the present bar against
Orientals were raised.

SILK STOCKINGS
EVADE SLUMP

CHICAGO, July "a U.S0.
There may be some truth to the
report that there has been a
business depression. but a survey
of three of Chicago's largest de-
partment stores reveals that it
has not been reflected in the
sale of silk stockings.
None of the girls, apparently,
have been forced to go back to
the old-fashioned cotton stock
ings. Buyers in the three stores
reported today that more than
SO per cent of their stocking
sales still are silk. One buyer
i'd:
'Tn May, 1929, before the
crash, there was larger per

chased than in the same month

SLOGAN WRITER
GETS PRIZE

Howard C. Martin, a soldier,
who Won the District Employ
ment Committees slogan contest,
turned up today after being
sought for five days and was
awarded $40 prize by George
j. Adams, secretary Of the COM
mittee.
The soldiers slogan, Employ
For Prosperity" was adjudged
the best of 400 submitted in the
contest, staged in connection with
the committees midsummer job
campaign. But Private Martin
went through quite an ordeal be-
fore he was given his prize.
In submitting his slogan, the
soldier failed to make known his
address. The letter, written in
free and easy handwriting, was
the only means of Identification
Mr.. Adams had.
So when Private Martin showed
up, he was asked to submit a
specimen of his handwriting. The
specimen failed to compare with
the writing in the slogan letter.
Puzzled, Mr.. Adams sought coun-
sci from handwriting authorities
in the District Building.
At length Private Martin eX-
planned that he wrote Is different
styles and ultimately submitted
a specimen which was identical
with the writing in the prize-win,
ming letter.
