tune, the costume illustrated Is
patrician in its every detail. It
excels in fine tailoring. The jacket
is Of brown silk grosgrain with a
waistcoat and skirt of brown
checked beige wool. A note of red
is carried out in the clever fas-
tening on the waistcoat and in the
fiat crepe ascot tie.
AS the days 60 on 1t Is appar-
ent that the vogue for touches Of
brown is more pronounced than
ever. Instead Of the usual black
ribbon or patent leather band on
the now-so-popular panamas the
latest wrinkle Is to trim it with
brown.
The same is true in regard to foot
wear, the newest summer sports
shoes are white buck with swatches
Of brown leather or pipings in
brown instead Of black.
And have you seen the latest in
the "double-date" dresses which are
terribly smart and as practical as
smart? They are called double
date because in the twinkling Of an
eye they can be changed from a
sports frock to a tailored ensemble.
1t is simply matter Of donning or
doffing the long dark silk coat
which compliments the white frock
under it. A perfectly stunning
double-date costume tops a white
sleeveless fiat crepe dress with a
long sort Of redingote coat made of
eyeleted brown silk.

Proft-taking on price bulges carried
wheat down at times to below yester-

Great Britain was now considering a
70 per cent dominion wheat import
quota, which with Is per cent native

Argentina, Russia and the United

On the other hand, bulls laid stress

as the season progressed world require

supplies reduced. Deficiency of moist

American and Canadian Spring wheat

ANTITRUST LAW
CHANGE IS URGED
Modificationists Encouraged
by Statement of President
in Annual Message.
BY CHAS. p. SHAEFFER,

Modification Of the antitrust laws,
or at least a more liberal administra
ton of the act, is being powerfully
urged on the present Congress.
Impetus to this end was given by
President Hoover in his annual mes
sage. While opposing repeal of the
laws on the ground that it would lead
to price-fixing monopoly and destruc-
ton of healthy competition, the Presi-
dent recommended inquiry Into the
economic action of the law upon nat
ural resource industries where de-
structive competition produces waste
and invokes hardships upon operators
and workers"
This was recommended, it was said.
because there is wide conviction that
some changes should be made, espe-
cially in the procedure under these
laws"
In the meantime, three important
natural resource industries, augmented
by countless other organizations, are
bringing their guns to bear on the is
sue. These are the National Coal As
sociation, representing the bituminous
industry Of the country; the American
Mining Congress and the National
Lumber Manufacturers Association. all
OF which have passed resolutions seek
ing modification Of the act
In advancing his suggestion, the
President made specific reference to
these industries, stating that in recent
years there has been continued de-
moralization in the bituminous coal, oil
and lumber industries"
However, Senator McKellar of Ten
neSsee has introduced a resolution call
ing lor an investigation by the Judici-
airy Committee OF the Senate, or SUBJ
committee thereof, of these laws. with
especial regard to the necessity for a
change, extent of violation, extent of
prosecution, etc

BY CURRENCY CHANGE
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The Commerce Department notes a
general price rise in internal movements
of wholesale commodities in those coun-
tries which recently suspended gold
payments, and similar movement Of
prices in several other countries.
In review covering the period from
September to October, 1881, it was
found that in 10 of the 20 foreign coun-
tries the combined index advanced. A
weighted average price index of those
20 countries was l per cent higher in
October than in the preceding month
The greatest advances in the internal
movements of prices occurred in the
United Kingdom and in British India,
where advances of slightly more than 5
per cent were mada. In Denmark and
in Finland prices rose nearly 4 psr cent,
in Norway and in Poland they advanced
about l.6 per cent, and in Canada,
Italy, Austria and Sweden they ad-
vanced l per cent or less.
Price drops exceeding per cent oc-
CURED in France and Latvia, and there
were declines Of about 2.3 per cent each
in the Netherlands and in Peru, of from
to per cent in the United States,
Belgium, Germany, Japan and China,
and of fractional per cent in prices
in CZechoslovakia.
