interrupted the flight Saturday
night, begun at Long Beach, N. Y,
early that day, after the fliers
had gotten within so miles Of Ber-
muda, their first scheduled stop.
The new sextant is a more mod
ern instrument with which Mac
Laren, an experienced navigator,
can "shOOt the stars" and keep
his course at night.
Both MacLaren and Mrs. Hart
were anxious to get started again.

in His Garden; Thousands
File Past to View Body

PARIS, Jan. 5 IN.SO.-With
but a single decoration on his
breast. the body of the late
Marshal Joseph Joffre lay in
state in the chapel Of the historic
Ecole militaire today while thou
sands filed past the sunlit bier
to pay their last respects to the
hero of the Marne.
The Marshal was dressed in the
uniform of the engineers, in
which branch of the army he
first saw service so years ago.
About his form was wrapped the
long black cape he wore in the
crucial days of 1914.
Wears One Medal
On the Marshals breast was
the military medal, but on 19
cushions ranged about his bier
were the countless decorations he
had won during his many years
of military service. His Marshals
baton reposed on a stand in
front of his bed.
From 9 a. M, when the doors
of the chapel were thrown open,
a constant line of visitors filed
past to pay their last respects to
the dead warrior.
-Four guards of honor and a
color bearer stood at the bier
throughout the day. They were
relieved every hour.
This was the first time the
chapel had been used for such
a ceremony in 100 years.

SESSION
FIGHT LOOMS

A little band of Senate insur-
cents and Democrats today is
urging enactment of long pending
legislation, protesting against
President Hoover's approval OF
the Eastern railroad mergers,
calling for reconsideration of the
Federal Power Commission con-
firInation and demanding passage
of additional farm and unem-
ployment relief.
Hoover leaders opposed these
demands, thus providing issues
for a continuous political war
until adjournment two m n t h S
hence.
The power commissions action
IN discharging two Federal ex-
perts favored by prOgresSiyes
and the Presidents approval of
the proposed rail merger topped
the list of coalition grievances.
Lucas Fight to Continue
The Lucas-Norris controversy,
in which Robert H. Lucas, direc-
tor of the Republican national
committee, fought the reelection
of Senator George W. Norris in
Nebraska, will provoke further
debate.
The insurgents have not fin
1Shed their attack on Lucas, even
though they have little hope of
driving him out of office at
present. The Nye campaign ccm-
mittee will continue its inquiry
and may furnish more ammuni-
tion to the insurgents.
Farm relief will be mother
subject of controversy. Senator
William L. Borah (RO of Idaho
has demanded enactment of the
debenture, or a special session to
consider other remedies.
Meanwhile, Secretary of Agri-
culture Hyde will appear before
the Senate Appropriations Com
mittee, asking immediate apprO-
priatiOn Of S45,OOO,OOO for the
feed and seed loans already au-
thOrized for drought-ridden States.

interviewed. The Administration
can block any additional legisla-

In the background rest a half
dozen aging issues.
There is the Muscle Shoals con-

PARIS, Jan. 23.-The showings
OF next summers styles, although
Just begun in the salons of the
famous dressmakers of the Rue De
La Paix and neighboring crossroads,
already indicate very definitely
that the smartly dressed woman,
next July, will show still less Of
ner calves, and will be perfectly
smart in dark blue or brown.
A concensus of dressmakers, as
expressed in their latest creations,
is that the well-dresSed woman next
summer should:
Drop her skirts TO within thirteen
inches of the heel by day and to the
instep by night.
Wear tailored suits with short
Jackets for morning.
Waistlinc Up in Front
Wear coat dresses during the first
warm days of spring.
Wear shoft evening wraps, TO
show off to advantage the long,
slim lines of the straight evening
gowns.
Have her waistline raised in
front.
Avoid loud cloths and when
patterned fabrics are used, keep the
patterned designs small and neat.
Wear dark blue for tailored suits,
brown for sports, beige and yellow
or light blue for tea, and cherry red
black or white for evenings.
1t particularly will be smart to
have two-tone chiffops in plaid
effects.
vt also will be quite in keeping
with the latest ideas of smart de-
sign to look young, regardless of
your age. This is going to be done
by cleverness and a reversion to
genuine feminine frills.
Knocking OFF the Years
Clingy materials with unsopaisti-
Gated designs, a correct and poig-
nant use of flowers and little rib
bon bows at the one and only right
Place, and a return of the flatter-
ing flutter of ostrich feathers-all
these will change the task of try
