Here's how they are combining
check with plain this season. The
picture happens to be of a beach
costume and is therefore made up
of washable material. However. the
rule holds good for the newest
spring suits which have their swag-
ger coats lined with checked silk
adding jaunty scarfs of the check.
One piece dresses with bodice or

also good style. These often have
soft tie fastenings of self material.

First steps in the operation Of the

soon take place may be given, says
Director Balmer. State councils Tor
commodity control and adjustments,
acting as official arms of the federal
service, will be set up at once The ag-
ricultural extension service and state
| statisticians will be represented there
on. These committees will afford the
connection between the headquarters
at Washington, D. c., and the individ-
ual farmers, and in large degree the
actual field supervision will be handled
by farmers in their own congressional
districts. simultaneously, commodity
committees of the department at Wash
ington, D. c., will gather tentative data
and lay preliminary plans on contracts
and adjustments. These will be rapidly
submitted to special commodity hear
ings where farmers and market au-
thorities will be asked to state thell
views. During this interval the public
will be kept we'll informed on the
points of the law and it's workings by
means of all the modern methods Of
communication. Secretary Wallace in.

stand the viewpoint and purpose OF the
administration so that voluntary co.
operation may be secured.
