INTEREST IN FOREIGN
AFFAIRS INCREASING
Public Library Reports Rising De-
mand for Literature on World
Questions.

A vast increase in interest in foreign
affairs is manifested by patrons of the
Washington Public Library, according
to DR.. George F. Bowerman. librarian
who yesterday said that both the In
formation desk and the reference desk
Of the central branch report a rising
demand for literature on international
politics and economics.
A record of questions asked at the
reference desk during the past two
months, DR.. Bower1nan said, shows that
the greatest number of calls was for
material on the war debts, followed by
the League Of Nations, ManchuFia
recognition of Soviet Russia, Bolivia
and the Permanent Court of Interna-
tional Justice. Other popular subjects
are Germany, Hitler, France. Japan
the five-year plan in Russia, the Philip
pines, the United States debt to Po-
land and Belgium
Most of the applicants were foreign
service students, college and high schoo
students and debatefs The range ol
subjects includes agricultural adjust
ments among nations, the Hitler foreign
policy, Mussolini and Fascism, man
dates, international aspects Of radio de-
velopment, the future of democracy
among the nations, achievements oi
the Pan-American Union. international
aspects of the Panama Canal, currency
in Soviet Russia and England's fela.
tionship to her colonies today. These
students seek the library's aid in theil
quest for data.

COURSE IN CHARACTER
TO BE DISCUSSED HERE
DR.. ]. y. Wright Will Confer Mon
day With School Officials About
Training Program.

DR.. j. F. Wright, whose course in
character engineering" has been a part
OF the curricula of schools in various
parts of the country, in prisons and in
other institutions for many years, will
meet with DR.. Frank w. Ballou, SUPER
intendent of schools, and members of
the Board of Education tomorrow at
els am. to discuss a proposal to in
sutute his course in District public
schools
DR.. Wright Is being brought here
through the efforts Of Leroy Goff,
chairman Of the subcommittee on
character engineering" of the Wash
ington Board of Trade.
School officials have consented to try
out the system in four schools Of the
city. DR.. Wright will remain In the
city all this week. :,
The course, developed by DR.. Wright
after his work in prisons and schools,
seeks to build character in the school
children by pointing out the right thing
to do and making them want to do it
simply because it is the right thing
not because of fear, hope Of future re-
ward or other reason.

Temper Tailored Styles > i,
With Feminine Touches

plain except for two pockets. TO bal
ance this air of strict simplicity, the
pockets were embroidered with dull
gold thread, and q wide scarf Of rust
colored woolsn, embroidered in gold
thread. The costume was worn with
brown hat, one of the new very high
models which Agnes has just intro
duced.
In line with this trend is the COM
bination of fabrics CT quite different
character. Woolens, for instance, are
trimmed with chiffon and organdy, to
form an interesting contrast. There
| is for instance the Chanel two-piece
costume OF navy wool voiie, into which
is cut on rather severe lines with a
straight skirt, q waist-length, some
what fitted jacket. But its wide
chiffon collar Of navy blue, bordered
with bands of braid, quite changes
its tailored severity, and gives the
soft femininity which Paris insists on,
even in her most masculine costumes.
OF course, the extensive use OF Or
" CANDY as a trimming for cos
tunes Of every type is all in the same
direction. Organdy blouses appear as
feminizing Influences in mannish suits,
and organdy frills and trimming soften
otherwise severe woolen dresses. Or if
a silk frock is cut on tailored lines,
it is likely to be enliveped by touch
of white ofgandy, which quite changes
its original character. noticed a
dress OF this type the other afternoon
at tea time. This frock was OF navy
blue heavy crepe. with straight skirt,
having q group OF stitched down pleats
at the front. The blouse and sleeves
likewise were of tailored simplicity, but
adding a note of gayety to the cos
tune was deep, outstanding frill OF
white ofgapdy at the neck, with
double frill at the cuffs. Even more
feminine IN its appeal was the close
fitting turban, with pert bow, also
of the white organdy.
Even when the strictly tailored ces-
tune does appear in Paris, 1t lacks
the masculine quality sometimes as
is color interest, originality OF design,
or some note which takes away the
severity often connected with the tai
Iored costumes. Mirande, for instance,
showed me costume from her col
lection which Is having good deal Of
success. It is tailored, yet by no
means masculine. This frock Is made
of a diagonal grayish mixture, with
stripping Of white cord yarns. The
skirt is cut to emphasize this pattern,
a triangular section Of the skirt ex-
tending above the waistline, Follow
ing a diagonal line is the bodice clos,
ing, marked by a group of bright red
buttons, And to further give interest
is a juanty scarf collar Of bright red
piaue. Mirande has Just made this
costume up for a client, who has
chosen, to accompany it, shallow
crowned canotier Of gray felt, banded
in Ted.
TO be In line with Paris, the smart
woman will temper her tailored cos
TUNES, with some note OF femininity;
or she will add q tailored accent to
her frock of feminine inspiration.

Use Artistic Principles
In Building the Costume

gloves match the dress in color, they
are plain, unornamental suede, of tex
ture not unlike the soft woolen Of the
frock. The hat likewise is canotier
type, chic in itself, but so simple that
it does not in any way call attention
away from the wide -shouldered gilet.
Even the shoes chosen to accompany
the costume are simple in line, without
ornamentation. As result of eoncen-
trating interest on q simple detail of
the costume, have, I feel, created a
costume of real distinction.
A LMOST any woman can do the
"a same thing in assembling her own
costumes. She must, in the first place,
study dress or suit from the standpoint
of design. The frock which violates
the principle of simplicity, and which
scatters its interest instead of concen-
trating on single point, she will re-
ject. She will search for the frock
cut on smart, simple lines, with one
point of interest. Luckily. she may
find dresses of this kind for very little
to choose wisely, rejecting the ornate
and poorly designed frock, and select
ing the simple one of excellent design.
Having chosen frock, or suit, the woman
who looks for distinction in dress will
select accessories, which both from the
color standpoint and from the angle of
design, are of type which will bring
out the best features of her dress, She
will avoid too many color accents. She
will not make the mistake of selecting
accessories that are unrelated to the
dress, either in color or design. In
other words, she decides what the point
Of interest in her costume is. and she
builds around that.
A costume, built up in this way, can
never be dull or menotenous. It is in
the best sense simple costume, be-
cause 1t observes artistic principles.
It is almost certain to be q costume of
Observation-Disclosures it cost much or
little.

NEEDY TAKE OVER
CITY POLICE FORCE
Plan Adopted to Provids
Work for JobIess Heads

BY the H1ociated Press.
PITFHFIELD, H., March 25.-The
unemployed have taken over Pittsfield's
police force and some Of the other city
departments may fare likewise.
It came about as a measure to pro-
vide work for jobless heads OF families.
When unemployment relief funds ran
low Mayor F. N. Wells and other off,
cials cast about for other means Of in
suring at least living wage to indi-
gent families.
From the unemployed came the sug-
gegtion that they could man the police
force, provide an efficient night patrol
for the city and at the same time earn
sufficient money to provide for their
families
Mayor Wells accepted the plan, di-
vided the jobless into two-man teams
and ordered that the existing positions
be shared in rotation a week at a time
by the teams
"All are family men, said the mayor,
"and it will give each family at least
living income. About half of the men
have had some experience in police
work and we are pairing the expert
enced with the inexperienced We
think that the police force under this
plan viii be as efficient as formerly,
while families whose help from the re-
lief fund has been greatly reduced be.

able to get by"
- Mayor Wells said he planned to con-
tinue the share-the- e-work plan in the
police department throughout his term
OF office and would endeavor to extend
1t to other city departments.

En- route they made the first auto

Bombay Via Delhi.
The route lay from Bombay via
Delhi, Lahore and Quetta, through
Baluchistan, to Lpahan, Bagdad and
Beirut, thence across Asia Minor to
1stanbul and thence to Vienna and
Berlin.
The first trouble was encountered in
the trackless wilds of Baluchistan,
where the car had to be dug out Of the
sand seven times in one day.
The travellers soon learned that dur
ing the period just before and after
sunrise the sands presented a harder
surface, and to this they owed their
success In crossing the Lut Desert after

Evening Makeup.

TWO new shades for the perfect eve
ming makeup are jade green for
blondes and mauve for brunettes.
OF course, we have had green and mauve
powders for good many years, but
not these subtle shades. Just dust
ing of either, according to your COM
plexion, whisked over the powder you
ordinarily wear, gives becoming pearli-
ness to the complexion. Another new
shade called pearl also can be worn
very effectively in the evening.
Face powder should be- subtle, It
should never challenge attention. The
idea Is to give the effect of q beautiful
face, with 10 indication of having used
powder. This depends in part on the
texture of the powder chosen. Heavi-
ness is no indication that a powder
will be adherent. Uusaully fine light
blend is much more lasting in its beau
tifying effect.
