Simple Frocks Attain
Originality Through the
Clever Handling of Pin
Tucks and Seamings.
@ EWING a fine seam has be-
y come a newly important art
in the sartorial world.
Handwork has been elevated to
a place of enviable distinction
in the new mode. 1t might be
added that this revival of inter-
est in a past feminine art does
not mean a going back to GRO
cheted laces and cross stitched
collars and cuffs. Eyelet embroi-
derry to be sure, is featured on
both silken and cotton fabrics,
and is used to invest frocks for both
daytime and evening wear with a great
deal Of charm. But the most modern
development il revealed in the clever
handling of fine tucks, seamings and
groups of pleatings as well as empiece-
ments and insets.
One Of the most delightful results
Of this style theme is that a plain fab
ric. rather simply cut, may attain dis
tinct originality and the unmistakable
mark Of an expensive garment. Also
the clever dressmaker invents ways of
introducing these seams and pleats and
therefore largely eliminates the danger
OF repetition. With a frock beautifully
hand detailed one is not apt to expert
ence the unpleasant sensation of seeing
the model in every shop window.
The afternoon frock that we are
showing you from Worth today offers
an exquisite commentary on this trend.

DepoSitors Of Bank

Aug. Is Despite Ban

NEW YORK.-Comn1issioner Null
rooney refused the United DepoSi-
tors Committee of the Bank of the
United States a permit to hold a
mass demonstration before city hall,
August 18th was reported yesterday.
While Mulrooney did not give a
clear reason for this arbitrary deci-
sion, members of the committee said
that Tammany feared the demon
stration would expose the connections
between prominent Tamnany lead
ers and the swindling bankers who
ruined the Bank of the U. S.
Depositors Demand Demonstration.
At many open air meetings last
night in all the boroughs small de-
positors we're unanimous in the opin-
ion that demonstration should be
held, despite the high handed pro-
hibition of it by Mulrooney.
Many worker depositors pointed
out, however, at the open air meet
ings held in the Bronx and Browns
vile, that the masses of depositors
cannot put their faith in any Tam
many court and that preparations
should go ahead for the mass DEM
onstration, permit or no permit.

4 New Jersey Banks Crash;
Bank Failures Show Rise

An indication of the big rise in
bank failures this year over last Is
shown by the Federal Reserve Bank
reports. In 1881 thus far over $50
banks crashed, with more than $685.
100000 in deposits involved. This is
twice as much as last year, the worst
year In American banking history.
The number of bank failures has
been steadily growing for the past
ten years. During the present crisis
they jumped up sharply, with over
1900 banks closing their doors. If the
bank crashes for the coming months
keep UP as they have In the past six
months, the bank failures and the
amount involved will far exceed 1880.
Millions of workers suffered in the
bank crashes during 1880 and 1881,
the big bankers, robbing millions, as
in the Bank of United States, getting
off with light sentences-which they
are not yet serving sghile unem-

Emil CARLOS, of the Communist
Party: Matthewson, of the Unem-

demonstration vigorously condemned
the Negro renegades who are cooper

tempt to whitewash the police muir
der Of the three Negro workers and
the wounding Of scores of white and
Negro workers. This is the third
huge demonstration held in as mary
days in spite of the police attempt TO
prohibit the meetings of workers.
Furthering the boss attempt to
whitewash the police, District Attor-
ney Ditchburne has preferred charges
of melting to riot against Timothy
Jones, Marion Watkins and Joseph
Gardner, all Negro workers. Charges
of disorderly conduct have been made
against William Saunders, Barney
Bourgshire and Louis Temmes, the
latter a white worker. Fifteen other
workers who were arrested on Mon
day following the massacre have been
released as a result of the firm at

OF the militantly successful picketing
being conducted by the National
Textile Workers Union
At the Colt Dye house 81 strikers

charge of falling TO walk ten PAGES

the police court where Recorder Joel
son has been following the clever
policy of disnlissing the arrested
pickets after they have been removed
from the picket line and in this way
gripping the picketing with the min
imum Of antagonism being aroused
among the strikers. They were trans
ferred by the request Of the chief Of
police to the criminal court where
more hard boiled judge, Kennedy,
will deal more stringently with the
strikers.
This is the result of a general
move on the part of the mill owners
to take the strike cases out of joel
sons jurisdiction and place them in
to court where heavy jail sem
fences and fines will be imposed.
Thirteen of the strikers got S. fines.
