needed to give the old dress a new lease
on life.
The dress that you make yourself
may be Of fiat crepe or some other ma
terial of the silk crepe family which
may be bought in excellent quality
right now for very reasonable price.
We suggest fiat crepe because it lends
itself so well to the little dressmaker
touches that you will be able to add to
your dress at practically no additional
expense.
One of the newest of these trimmings
is known as spaghetti fringe" To
make it you will need yards and yards
of narrow tubing made from the ma
terial. To make this, cut bias bands
about an inch and quarter wide. Fold
over lengthwise and stitch one-eighth
inch from the edge and draw right
side out by attaching hairpin Or bod
kin in one end and pushing through
to the end of the tube. Press fiat and
cut the strips in 6-inch lengths, fold
in the center as shown in the SKETCH
arrange along the edge of the dress
where you want the fringe to appear
and stitch down. The ends of the
tubes are left as they are but few
stitches should be taken at the ends
of the seams to keep them from I'M
doing.

Government officials today were studs

acute during the cherry blossom season

CURB Of PRIESTS
AS BURDEN ASKED
Vera Cruz Governor Holds
They Are Representatives
of "Foreign Power"
BY the Associated Press.

VERA CRUZ, Mexico, June 90
Charging that Catholic priests in Mexi-
CO are representatives of "a foreign
power" and are burden on the public,
Gov. Adalberto Tejeda today asked the
District Court to uphold the recently en-
acted state law placing restrictions on
the church.
In a contemplation to an action
brought by priests for an injunction
against application of the law, which
limits the number Of priests allowed
to oficiate in the state to IL, the gov
ernor declared that because of Ear
rangementS" between the italian gov
eminent and the Vatican the priests
were, in fact, representatives of for
eign power.
The court has granted permanent
injunction against application Of the
law to the priest in charge of the
cathedral at Jalapa, the state capital,
and several other actions for injunc-
ton are pending before Judge Manuel
Bartlett
The court held that the priest was
harming no one by remaining in his
church and was entitled to conduct
service inasmuch as it was his means
OF earning a living. Catholic circles
believed this precedent would be fol-
lowed in cases pending.
Federal troops were used to guard
the church yesterday when about 100
persons staged street demonstration
Of anti-church nature. They heard
speeches criticizing former President
Emilio Portes Gil for signing an agree
ment with the church which permitted
renewal Of services in 1929 after a
three-year open conflict.
