Miami Advises New Jersey

Expect to Land
AERIAL CAMERAMAN
IS AGAIN ELUDED

CHARLESTON, S. c.. Dec. 49,
(UP).-The Miami. Fla, depart
ment of commerce advised local
airport officials today that the
Lindberghs are making a nonstop
flight from Miami to Newark, n. }.
MIAMI, Fla, Dec. l8.-(UP).
Col. and Mrs. Chas. A. Lindbergh
took off for New York at 9:54
a. m. (EST) for what was expect
ed to be the last leg of an extend
ed flight that has carried them to
four continents and across the
North and South Atlantic oceans.
The Lindbergh were pursued by
a plane piloted by Karl Boelter,
whose plane was chartered by a
Miami City publicity bureau to
take pictures of them in flight.
Lindbergh had little difficulty ia
eluding him in his speedy mono
plane and no spectacular aerial
duel occurred as did Saturday
when Lindbergh dueled with a
newsreel plane for 20 minutes be-
fore landing.
Lindbergh didn't reveal his des-
tination but it was believed he
was headed for New York. He
had enough fuel for 1000 miles
and it is only 1,400 miles from
Miami to New York.
The Lindberghs, speeding home
ward to spend Christmas with
their son, Jon Morrow, waved a
CHEEKY goodbye" as their red and
black monoplane assembled gradu-
ally from bay waters of the Pan
American barge here.
Lindbergh was at the controls,
with Mrs. Lindbergh, as usual,
ready for wireless communications
with Pan-American stations along
the route and at New York. A
comparatively small crowd saw
the famous flying couple as their.
epoch-making air tour and study
neared an end.

His opinion was regarded as
doubly significant because he may

In warning that there inevitab-
" must be an upheaval of major
proportions before peace comes,
DR.. Wang added his opinion to
that of Chinese editors who for
many months have been urging
that China prepare for large
scale conflict in the Orient. He
insisted that only by preparation
along both military and economic
lines can this country hope to
escape being merely catspaw in
war in the Pacific.
DR.. Wang envisaged a settle

Japan would be stripped Of her

ent that milliners are creating some
of their choicest hats Of 1t. Nor
does the favor for taffeta stop at
that point, for all sorts OF belts, gIr-
dies, scarfs. and even handbags are
being fashioned of it. Among smart
est details there is none more def.
nitely featured than the jaunty
waistcoats of checked or plaid taf-
feta which will be worn with the
new spring suits. Often the jacket
or three-quarter coat Of the suit is
lined with the silk, the revers and
a sprightly tied scarf furnishing a
dash of color such as the new style
curriculum calls for so insistently
these days.
The fact that there is such a wide
variety Of taffetas shown makes the
vogue all the more interesting. The
smartest new item Is matelasse taf-
feta. This puff-surfaced silk looks
best made up very simply.

WOOLENS STRESSED
IN SPRING FABRICS
Old Friends in New Guises
in Early Showings.

Old friends in new guises are
seen in materials for early spring
wear. Some of the more important
are as follows: A fine wool crepe
matelasse, this snowy fabric being
the most widely discussed of the
season; next, a rather decidedly
checked wool, which manages to
achieve striped effect along with
its checks. This is shown in string
beige and navy blue.
Hairy wOOlens are stressed, with
either rabbits or muskrat's hair
woven in. Monotone tweeds are es-
pecially favored in this idea for
early spring. Natural cashmereS
and kashas are being promoted,
satin jerseys and cashmere proving
a popular combination with some
designers.
Canvas weaves are being particu-
larly emphasized this year, and so
are jacquards, some designs show
ing broken Jacquard on a canvas
coating. Heather mixtures are good,
especially georgette-tweed dress
woolen in oxford gray.

Well, we are coming to brims.

One of the important features of

These changes are achieved in
jacket costumes, for example-the
jacket lined with a print, and de-
signed to be worn on either side;
jackets that, when unfastened, re
veal a complete frock with sus-
pender bodice over a blouse; also
costumes that introduce capes that
are detachable, and that give the
impression of a high neckline until
removed.
The tunic silhouette is a recur-
