HOUSING RELIEF
PLAN OFFERED

A five-point plan to meet the
problems of housing and rent in
relief administration was urged
last night at a meeting of the
Monday Evening Club at the Will
lard Hotel by John Ihlder. chair
man of the housing committee Of
special agencies.
1hlder, who has made nation
wide study of the relief situation
offered a plan which would. he
said, put capital in CIRCULATION,
give the needy an opportunity to
earn money and correct slum con-
ditions.
His plan includes the demoli-
ton of all unsafe and obsolete
dwellings, repair of houses worth
the investment, inclusion of the
cost of shelter in the budgets of
families receiving public relief,
creation of limited dividend COM
panies to provide houses for fam
lilies of low incomes and creation
of limited dividend companies to
reconstruct slum areas.
The last two items are the sub
ject of bills now before Congress,
the latter one being the so-called
alley bill"

CHINA STIRRED
BYREPORTSOF
NEWSTATE

SHANGHAI, Feb. al The
Chinese press Is considerably
wrought up over reports from
Peiping and Jehol to the effect
that when a band of raiding
Mongols was recently killed to
the last man on the Jehol border,
it was discovered that the group
was officered by a Japanese,
Lieutenant Matsui, and that he
carried orders for the formation
of new State to be known as
"Tayuankuo."
1t so happens that "tayuan"
means big dollar" in Chinese,
though the meaning in Mongol is
different. The Chinese press is
now filled with derisive refer
ences to supposed japanese at
tempts to found in Mongolia the
equivalent of Manchukuo, and to
do it by the use of bribes.
It is not yet determined
whether the detailed plans for
the founding of the state of
--7ayuankuo are forgeries or
whether they are genuine.

SIR MALCOLM

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. Feb.
81 G.N.SO Fearful that Sir
Malcolm-Campbell's over-eagerness
might carry him to disaster, the
American Automobile Association
steadfastly refused his urgent re-
quest that he be permitted to
send his Bluebird super-racer
sweeping over a palpably faulty
course today. Campbell said:
81 am quite willing to take a
chance"
Officials replied: e.
1--WE are not willing for you
to take a chance"
Campbell late yesterday re-
quested officials to permit him to
make another trial run today. but
after examination of the beach.
officials said it would be danger
Gus to attempt such a run.
The associations refusal was
based on the belief it would be
impossible for the Briton to at
tain a speed equal to the record
of 253 miles per hour without
grave risks to both driver and
car.

MANY CHILDREN
UNDER WEIGHT

Approximately one-fourth of
the children in one Washington
school are 81 per cent under
weight through lack of proper
feeding and care, Mrs. Florence
Turner Garrett declared last
night in lecture at Hine Junior
High School.
Emphasizing the necessity of
feeding growing children suff1-
cient quantities of the right kind
of food, Mrs. Garrett declared
that all children should be given
three full meals day and un-
derweight children should have
more than the usual three meals.
She suggested that they be
given milk and crackers in the
middle of the morning, cocoa or
matted milk after school and
milk before bedtime.

PARIS COUTURIERS
By RosETTE HARGRovE
 MIA Service Writer

Paris-The great vogue this sea- son undoubtedly goes to the three. quarters ensemble for both formal and semf-formal wear. There IS something irresistible about this type of ensemble and women have always applauded its appearance In the fashion scheme.
 The three-uuarters ensemble can always replace the jacket suit and the long coat, but neither can Ill the particular place it occupies.
 Originality, variety, youthfulness of appearance and the possibility or clever combinations of coloring are among the salient points to be found in the ensemble of this type.
 It suits short women whom the tailored suit sometimes dwarfs even more. Tall women find 1t as becoming. if not more so, as long coat which is apt to add unwanted inches.
 And another of the delightful properties of the so-called three quarters is that you can add or subtract inches to suit the individ- uai silhouette.
 Profusion of Styles
 Every one of the leading coutur- iers stressed the three-quarter en- semble in their summer collection, expressing 1t in their individual way. Styles vary from the loose sacque type of coat launched by Schiapareli last season to the fiit- ted coat with the hem banded in fox or some other fluffy fur, as sponsored by Molyneux, Jenny, and others.
 Necklines are almost as varied as sleeve styles and the dress Is us- ully of a totally different fabric. One of the smartest of the three- quarter ensembles for afternoon is shown by Lelong. The dress is made of black crepe de chine with a modernistic floral design in yell Jewish green. The coat is of match ing yellow green angora wool fabric with an originally draped collar tying midway between the neck and waist in a self bow, showing the top of the dress.

Before you make out your list of kitchen utensils, take stock of yourself. your husband and your circumstances. Have you been much feted during your en- gagement and must you return in kind? Or will most of your meals be prepared for two with an occa- sional extra couple for an infor- nal dinner? Will you cook in a kitchenette or an honest-to-g good ness kitchen? All these factors in- fuence the kind and type of uten- sils chosen.
 Strike 8 Medium
 Undoubtedly, most of your cook ing will be done for two. Materials are wasted and success cannot be assured if sauce pans and spiders and baking dishes are too large. A cup of sauce made in a two quart sauce pan is lost. Two rashers oi bacon and eggs cooked in an eight-inch spider are next to i'm possible. The same holds true re- garding pudding pans and baking dishes. However, beware of toe boiling-over when cooking and spilling-over when mixing.
 You will find rather bewild- ering array of materials offered m all kinds of utensils. Glass. iron, steel, enamelware, cast and sheet aluminium. wood and earthenware all find places in the kitchen. Tn many articles the materials can b. used interchangeably. personal preference being the deciding fac- tor. The use of some utensils de' termines tho kind of materials chosen.

A recent survey of school dental clinics made by Doctor Allen C.. Ireland, director of physical and health education of the New Jer- sey department of public instruc- tion, in collaboration with the council on mouth hygiene of the New Jersey State Dental Society. revealed that 110 school districts in New Jersey out of total of 530 are now providing dental clinics for school children.
 During these times when budget pruning Is found so necessary by all communities. boards of educa- ton are scrutinizing all items. and naturally the values and needs of dental clinics are discussed.
 Recently the school authorities of Summit. N. J., decided to elim- mate the school dental clinics. but when the dentists and physicians of that town appeared at their meeting and showed them how in- dispensable the clinic is, it was re- tafned.
 Unfortunately, most laymen can not realize the need of clinics. If they did, it is certain that dispens- ing with them would be an impos- sibility. ,'- t,.r-#-

HOME BEAUTY AIDS
Oio5se7 NEA sERVNE Rlc


 If you can't afford the luxury of a well stocked beauty cabinet look to your kitchen cupboard.
 It is wonderful if you can afford to keep well supplied with the right cosmetics which your skin needs but, if you cant, spend no time sorrowing for there are many beauty aids which cost practically nothing
 What do you think Cleopatra did when she felt her fair skin needed a little bleach to bring out it's best qualities? I think she might have used sour milk. the juice of strawberries or lemons or even d grain moistened in water. One of the best bleaches and skin whiteners under the sun is plain buttermilk. Wash your face neck, arms and hands with 1t. Oatmeal, the kind you use for breakfast cereal, uncooked and moistened with a little water is grand for the skin. You simply make a thick paste of it. apply the mixture to your face and neck, al- low it to dry while you lie down to rest for twenty minutes. wash it off and you'll be surprised how much clearer and softer your skin has become during the process.
 There is much to be said for hot water and lemon juice when it comes to talking of lovely complex ions. Women are learning that the way to have complexion that is the envy of everyone is to drink , full glasses of water into which the juice of one lemon has been squeezed upon arising each morn. | ing.
