Shoes Harmonic With Saucy Hats
New Fall Models Com
bine Style, Comfort
and Good Taste

p lew YORK.-Shoe designers, too,
~ have succumbed to the subtle in
fiuence of the new Eugene millinery,
and footwear for Autumn will har-
monte with and carry out the ensemble
motif set by these perky and attractive
bats. Colored piping, light trims of
blending materials, cleaner lineS-these
are important features of the new Fall
shoes
Riding on the crest of the new
fashion wave is the lower continental,
or Cuban, heel, which should give an
added spring to the step to match the
saucy bonnets which constitute world
wide feminine salute to the lovely
Eugene, last Empress of France and
wife of Louis Napoleon. The many
models featuring the lower heel dis
prove once again the idea that one can
be ultra smart only in extremely high
heels.
For street and formal afternoon
wear, pumps will be the leading type
shoe. Ties will follow and straps will
be good, though not quite so popular
In the materials the favorites will be
suede, lSidskin, calfskin and reptile, the
hrst-named being picked by Maurice
Wit. styiist for more than four
hundred Thorn Mean stores, as the
leading shoe material for early Fall.
As Winter sets in, however, kidskin
and lightweight calfslSin will slip into
first place.
Black will again be the most popular
color. according to Mr.. Wit, with

My dear Miss White: Yos seem

He is so good to me and loves me

SUNNY DAY.
If you do not want to wear a sim
pie, white gown with veil, choose
going-away costume, either suit or
ensemble in silk or wool, in one of
the fall shades most becoming to you
and an appropriate hat.
With the white gown and veil you
might carry bouquet of white flow
ers. With the other, wear a corsage
of flowers which harmonic with
your gown. If brown is the color of
your costume, roses, baby chrysan-
ihemums or dahlias in shades of vel
low, rust and red would be effective.
But talk this over with the florist
later.
Don't undertake dinner if it is
going to be too much for you. In

light refreshments will be sufficient.

Denounce War Prep

Meets
by a Worker Correspondent

PINEY FORK, Ohio.-This is a
one-mine town. Most of the miners
here are of American stock. The
strikers here, as in other districts,
are being supported by the farmers.
The company police are ruthless and
prosecute the strikers by breaking
their meetings, which are held far
from the mines. The workers here
are ardent supporters of the Daily
Worker. Among the 500 miners, 40
Daily Workers are distributed daily.
Denounce War.
After travelling over most of the
mining district and the surroundint
country, we found that the farmers
and the townspeople are sympa-
thetic with the miners strike. No
one speaks with contempt of the Ma
tional Miners Union. All agree that
miners get a dirty deal from the
bosses and the crooked leaders of the
UMW.A. At all meetings and dem
onstrations miners denounced i'm
perialist preparation for war and
indicated that they would call a gen.
eral strike in case of war There is
every evidence to show that the
strike will spread if miners receive
more relief.

While Andy Mellon is losing his

cost the workers here more in taxes,
he has recouped his potential personal
loss that bosses are experiencing over

Of his filling station operators 20 per
cent. This averages about $50 per
station and the poor devils have been
paying their help, light, phone and
water bills, rags, cleaning compounds
and what not, out of 2,5 per gallon,
and what's left, they live on. When
he has to keep two shifts going day
and night, the drastic cut into his
food and clothes monthly budget is
crually near the slow starvation line,
For it must be remembered, that he
must retain sufficient help to render

What are the coal operators doing

up and those who organized the
meeting are being watched. That
same night 6 strikers got drunk on
booze that was passed out freely by
agents of the mine owners. Then
three shots were fired. This was
all done by the coal company in
order to demoralize the strikers.

bosses into going to work, to join

workers and farmers demonstrated

the Michigan law for finger-printing
all foreign-born workers.

In spite Of the fact that some fas-

trying to create confusion among the
workers so that they could then give
us drenching with the fire hose
and drive the crowd away.
The n1ilitancy Of the workers, how
ever. smashed their plot and they
did not dare to use the fire hose
until after the demonstration was
over and the workers scattered.
Then they turned the hose on a
group Of Pioneers from the chill
dren's camp, which shows how
brutal and idiotic and cowardly they
are.
Resolutions were sent to the gov
ernor Of Alabama condemning the
frame-up Of the nine Negro boys
and to the governor Of Michigan
