STANDARD RULES
OF ETIQUETTE

Question: What is the menu for
an informal luncheon?
Answer: Even if the informal
luncheon does not omit a course,
dishes are always simpler, and it is
customary to serve fewer courses.
Even in warm weather it is wise TO
include one hot dish or a hot drink
in the menu as some people dislike
cold food.
Question: What beverages are
served at luncheonS?
Answer: While hot tea is not
served at a formal New York
luncheon, nevertheless it is perfect
ly correct for the hostess to serve it
if she desires. Iced tea is served
in warm weather, as is iced coffee,
and even chocolate may be served
If the hostess chooses.

RENEWAL OF RUBBER
RESTRICTION FORECAST
London Financial Editor Holds
Dutch Ready to Cooperate Be-
cause of Difficult Times.
BY the Associated Press

BY the Associated Press.
LONDON, March 5.-The financial
editor of the Daily Mail yesterday saw a
likelihood OF renewal of the rubber re-
striction and said that negotiations had
been for some time in progress between
British and Dutch interests to that end.
He believed the Dutch to be much more
inclined to cooperate in the restric-
ton because of difficult times they have
experienced recently.
Not only the producers, but the Dutch
government and bankers have been
hard hit and it is believed in some
quarters that the Dutch initiated pres
ent discussions on the matter.
A sharp rise in the rubber market at
London yesterday was ascribed to a
hope, if not an expectation, that the
Dutch would be prepared to cooperate
in restrictive measures.
