NEW YORK, September 3 (P)-Doll-
dom was having its own Fall fashion
openings this week and the models
shown were as stylish as any presented
at the seasonal shows in Paris.
Dolly's new clothes follow the cut of
adult fashions and are made of the
newest materials, in the latest color
combinations.
Just as the present generation of
dolls have discarded their dimples and
stiff f1axen curls for more natural
complexion and bobbed real hair, they
have also cleared their wardrobes of the
childish, Christmas tree" frockS of the
past.
Dolls are preparing to meet the Win

every form of sport and social activity,
from Lake Placid skiing to Palm Beach
moonlight dancing.
The present mode requires that they
should possess tiny ermine Cor bunny
evening jacket, a polo coat and a white
flannel sport coat for resort wear. They
must also have a tailored suit and sew
eral street dresses featuring the red,
brown and wistaria shades Paris advo-
Gates.
Dolls who like to lounge around the
house with their little mistresses should
have the new velveteen pajamas and
matching mules.
Their party frocks in crepes, satins
and chiffonS have long lines and fluffy
puffed sleeves. Sheer velvet capes and
wraps in harmonizing colors come with
them.

MANILA, September 3-A protest by
the Manila Electric Co., an American
concern, against alleged interference by
a Philippine government bureau in a
minor strike of the c0mpany'S employees
terday in the Legislature and among
Filipino officials.
Representative Francisco Varona, ma
jority floor leader, declared in the
House that James c. Rockwell, manager
of the company, in making public his
letter of protest had disturbed the
calm seas of American-Philippine po-
litical reactions" and urged his recall
from the islands.
THE Legislature hardly can grant
franchises to American firms when the
islands are independent If the company
continues to act overbearingly," asserted
Varona.
Rockwell Thursday refused to obey
instructions to attend conference re-
garding the strike issued by Hermene-
glido Cruz, director Of the Insular Bu-
reau of Labor. He gave publicity to a
letter saying further interference by
the bureau will be resisted to the ut
most"
One hundred and six nnemen who re-
ceived less than $500 year had walked
out in protest against a 6 per cent re-
duction. He said the $500 other en-
ploye made no protest.
hyperion Cristobal, president Of the
Philippine Labor Congress, said If there
was no settlement of the strike by
Monday he would declare boycott of
the company by the Congress $4,000
members.
Rockwell said he would attend a con-
ference at the Bureau of Labor today.

"MOVING PHENOMENON
Varying Dates Of Apartment
Leases Expected to Have Effect

A movement has been started in New
York City to vary the dates of the ex-

but it Is too late to do much to mini

Washington has its own moving ex

A large percentage OF New York's

FIRE PREVENTION
WEEK PROCLAIMED
President Stresses Loss OF
Life Declared Needless.
Oct. 9 Date Fixed.

President Hoover yesterday proclaimed
the week of October as Fire Preven-

teption to what he described as the
deplorable loss of thousands of human
lives and property waste of approx
mately half q billion dollars caused each
year by fires which should be avoided
and urged the people of the Nation to
make this years observance an occasion
Of special significance.
The Presidents proclamation follows:
I'm recommending the customary
public observance of Fire Prevention
week I wish to urge that 1t be made
this year an occasion of special sig
nificance.
THE deplorable loss Of thousands of
human lives and the property waste Of
approximately half a billion dollars
caused each year by fires should be
scrupulously avoided. The American
per capita loss now is nearly double
that of 20 years ago and constitutes a
challenge to our efforts that no citizen
can afford to ignore. 1t Is drain on
our created resources which he should
strive to eliminate as 1t is largely pre-

the attention and stimulate the action
of all citizens in preventing fire waste.

SIMPLER METHODS
! SAVE IN BUILDING
Institute of Architects Studies
Z Effect on Costs of Eco
nomic Stress.

The present period of economic
stress is forcing the building industry
to a more serious consideration OF
simpler and less expensive construction,
it is declared by F. Leo Smith, techni-
cal secretary of the American Institute
of Architects
Discussing new methods Of construc-
ton. attaining simplicity and economy,
he reports that prefabricated houses OF
new materials are being designed with
the idea of increasing the number of
the Nations home owners.
Inventive genius has produced for
the building industry countless mate
rials and devices but up to the present
time has been strangely inactive in de-
vising new methods of construction"
says Mr.. Smith There have been
few progressive improvements in struc-
tural principles involved in home build
ing and we still employ the same
methods which have been In use for
hundreds of years.
Possibilities From Study.
Mass production of standardized
units, lighter walls and floor systems,
and better provision for insulation and
fire protection may result from the in
tensive study of this interesting prob
lem.
Producers see a possible outlet for
their products and increased sales
brought about by making home owner
ship possible to large number of po-
tential buyers who are not now finan-
cially able to build. There is. Of
course, the danger of loss of individual
ity and architectural character unless
these qualities are intelligently consid-
cred. There may be a tendency to
produce quantities of mere boxes which
would be sorry excuses for human hab-
itation.
Transportation Question.
"One Of the problems involved in pre-
fabricated construction is that OF keep
ing the individual units sufficiently
light in weight to permit ease of trans
portation and erection. Small units
provide greater f1exibility in arrange
ment and are less apt to offend the
sense of scale Carefully designed units,
intelligently assembled, should be adapt
able to low cost homes with some ar
chitectural merit.
Cutting and fitting materials on the
Job Is always a waSteful and costly
procedure. For some unexplainable
reason the building industry has neg
lected this obvious defect in method
and. as a consequence, home construc-
ton has not kept pace with other
classes of construction The archi-
tects' cooperation in these new devel-
OpmentS Is essential or the result Is
most certain to be monotonouS repe-
tition of characterless structures, de-
void Of interest and lacking in those
qualities which are necessary to encour-
age home ownership"

THE MEXICAN CATTLE MENACE

Regardless of political affilia.
tions western cattlemen are prsc
tically unit in favor Of a stiff
protective duty on imported cat.
tie. The reason is clear. Cattle
can be grown in Africa. South
America and Mexico much cheap
or than in the United States owing
to the abundance and cheapness
of land and labor in those coun.
tries. Letting down the tariff
bars would be the signal for q
deluge of foreign cattle which
would make the plight of our
cattle growers worse than it is.
That this menace is real is dis.
closed by couple of Denver
stock men who recently crossed
the Rio Grande to have a look
around. Being close to the
Mexican border" reports the Re.
cord -Stockman, the men from
Denver naturally had in MUD
the menace Of Mexican cattle
aud the warning that was con.
tanned in President Hoover's
speech at Des Moines, namely,
that with only the Rio Grande
between, cattle at 50 a hundred
lay on one side of the line whica
would sell at $3.50 q hundred on
this side. Which is just about
the case.
The tariff wall is all that is
holding back the food; all that is
keeping the American ranchman
in the game at all. Even the
tariff isn't holding back all the
cattle from Mexico. The Hearst
and Palomas ranches we're pre-.
pairing to cross some rs. 600 head
from the southern country and
pay the duty thereon, according
to the two Denver stockmen. It
was estimated that the importa.
ton would yield over $3.50, 900
for Uncle Sam, or around SO
head.
Cattle arriving from Mexico
are uninviting sights in their
sadly shruuken condition. The
duty mounts according to the
weight. 1t is customary, there.
fore, to hold stock off water and
feed for many hours--sometimes
days-before crossing so as to
bring them within weight limit
to comport with low duty.
Once in the United States, they
are fed up once more and caused
to gain back the weight on which
no duty was paid" -Drovers
