gagingly youthful in effect, and
this frock has a particularly at

shoulders to suggest tiny cap
sleeves, and in the front it is
heightened into two tabs, fea-
ture that gives the yoke chic as
we'll as youthtulneSs and suits
the frock to those who prefer
smart sophistication in their
fashions. Printed silk or cotton,

POPE PLUS AND MUSSOLINI MAY SETTLE TROUBLE
Feeling on Both Sides Has
 Died Down and Some Agreement Is Expected

Rome, Aug 19- (UP)-Pope Plus and Premier Mussolini will immediately start conversations de- signed to settle the Italo-Vatican dispute, it was learned to-day. Feeling was believed to have suL- sided on both sides, and 1t was be- lieved an agreement might be reached by early next month. The controversy started in connection with the Catholic laymen's organi- zation Cation Action. which the fascists accused of political activ- ity and sought to suppress.
 The conversations were inspired by secret meeting this morning between the pope and the Jesuit priest Tacchi Venturi. who pre- pared the Italo-Vatican conciliation which eliminated in the Laterar treaty. Presumably Venturi has been conducting quiet negotiations with Italian government authori- ties. The pope was reported. on ex- cellent authority, to have delegated Cardinal Venturi to open unofficial negotiations with Mussolini. Thus he would act as liaison between the pope and premier. Recent less ening of tension led to belief that an agreement was imminent.
