FUR COATS SHOWN
IN VARIED LENGTHS

Furs for fall seem to be divided
into three big classes. First, the
long classical coat in black broad
tall, semi-fitted with just a little
ease following the figure. One
model, cut in this form, In black
broadtail, has squarish shawl col
lar edged in silver fox which builds
out the shoulders and also gives
them the new smart height. There
also are some models in new shades
Of gray broadtail.
Second, the three-quarter style,
but not with that bulky look of
some of the now popular swagger
coats. This isn't particularly prac
tical In fur as it gives too much
thickness to the figure. Third, fur
scarves and capes, or very short bo-
leros.
Items of fur which are already
being sold in great numbers are sill
yer fox capes. the black broadtail
type of coat trimmed with silver
fox, and a new beige ermine trimmed
with blue fox.

CRIME IN AMERICA
TAKES HUGE TOLL
Annual Cost Placed at Thir-
teen Billion.

Washington.-Crime is costinr the
United States S13,000,000,000 an
nually, says the National Council
of 76.
Every year, on an average, 12.OOO
persons are murdered, 5000 kid
naped, 100000 assaulted, and $4,000
robbed. The annual murder rate
has increased $50 per cent since
1890
Each year sees 10000 homes and
other places robbed, and more than
$100,000,OO0 is lost through incen-
diary fires.
These figures have been assem-
bled by the council, formed at Wash
ington July by group of private
citizens seeking to educate and
arouse the public TO the menace OF
organized crime.
The work is directed by Col.
James A. Moss, retired, a widely
known military author who in the
nine years since his retirement has
made a special study of the crime
situation.
The council is forming branches
in each of the states and in each
congressional district. These sub
sidiary councils will be formed
among outstanding citizens who
will work voluntarily to crystalize
public opinion in their communities
toward the enforcement of the law
and the elimination of organized
criminals.
1T is distinctly a problem of ed
ucation," ays Moss. NO law car
be effective without public opinion
behind it. The dry amendment
proved that.
But the people are ready. Since
we opened our campaign we are re
ceiving about $50 letters daily from
people who want TO help.
"The average man and woman
simply doesn't know the existing
situation. The national council viii
give them the facts. Then we will
ask them to use the ballot, which
is much more effective weapon
than bullets. We must drive cor
! rupt officeholders out of office"

CCHOOL days are herel Now,
- just what do you suppose is the
thought uppermost In the minds of
these little school-farlng daughters,
as they wend their way back to
classrooms after a carefree vaca-
tion-books and studies or the prob
lem of what to wear? We think
we know but are not going to tell.
Anyway, it does seem as If the
subject OF big-sister college and
campus apparel has had its share
of frOnt-page publicity, for the de-
partments which specialize in 60
ing away outfits have exceeded all
previous records in making a dis
play Of complete wardrobes which
include everything needed from a
sports fur coat to the most "scrump-
tlous" formal. We think little sis.
ter should share some OF the hon.
ors and attention in this matter of
stylish and practical clothes. and
so what we are going to talk about
at this moment is the apparel needs
of the younger girls who like to be
well dressed in their classrooms at
grammar and high school.
Here's something we believe will
be interesting to most every school
girl, it's that shirtwaist dresses are
''all the style" Mother and big sis
ter are having their dresses with
waists buttoned up the front,
tailored Of broadcloth and ''tweedy"
silks and the new ribbed crepes.
Frocks of this type are always neat
and trim looking, which is exactly
what makes them so practical and
good looking for school wear, and
so designers of junior styles have
adopted this fashion for school girls.
The little girl standing to the left

Washington. June 80 - (UP) -
The United States government to-
day closed its books for the 1893
fiscal year with a deficit Of approx
imately $1,750,000,000. 1t was the
second largest peace-time deficit on
record and amounted to $4,800,000
for each day of the year.
Expenditures for the year APP
proximated $3.95O,000,000. Income
from taxes, customs and other
sources amounted to only $2,200,-
100000. To make UP the differ
ence the government was forced to
borrow. This carried the public
debt to the highest level since 1929
at $22,5O0,000,00O.
In addition, total Of $1,24s,-

AS the fiscal year closed, receipts
Of the government were on the as
cendancy because of the recent
pickup in businss. More than
$10,000,0G0 monthly were coming
in through the sale of beer. At
the same time ordinary expenses

Unselfish Action
Retiring Agriculture Commissioner in Radio Plea
Hopes for Solution of Economic Problems

! about a fairer distribution Of the
national income and provide an
economic equilibrium through the
management Of economic forces
where freedom Of action has failed.
"Our government, in caring for
the public welfare Of its citizens,
may be called upon to pass legisla-
ton which would have appeared
absurd in the environment OF an
other age but be made reasonable
or even necessary by q mere
change in conditions. In the pres
emit emergency, matters which un-
der ordinary circumstances would
be deemed Of private concern be-
come matters Of public welfare and
subject to the police power Of the
state and nation. And this police
power should be as broad as the
demands Of public welfare.
"Unrestrained competition has
been made a part of our economic
creed and so long as there was an
interpretation Of goods and
food products, this type Of COM
petition was helpful. But in this
age Of machinery where industry
and agriculture have the ability to
produce more than our normal re-
quirements, this practice has led to
q cut-throat war in which the cost
Of production played only minor
part. Are panics, defiation and
bankruptcy to be our only remedy
for existing conditions. or shall we,
through government Intervention,
control this over-capacity and re-
construct our purchasing power?
1.-The time seems to have arrived
when, in the interest and for the
good Of society, we should cheer

|'of control. Our economic machine
has been preeminently successful
in producing wealth but has failed
utterly as an instrument for dis
tributing that wealth SO as to in
sure economic and social stability.
Presently conditions are chal-,
lenge to our business methods and
to our social standards. We,
through our government, have ac-
cepted that challenge. Let us
strive to provide such equality Of
opportunity between individuals
and groups that our system Of gov
eminent may be perpetuated and

aspire to but chieve the glorious fu-

business interests in order that the
state and country might solve its

In part: 'In the field of invention

progress. But when we turn to
the field of economies and the re-
lated field Of social science we find
that while our knowledge has in
creased we are failing to put that
knowledge to practical use In solv-
ing our problems.
apparently. the reason we have
not made more progress in solving
our economic and social problems
Is due to the fact that too often
such solutions conflict with those
selfish personal interests which are
all too apt to govern our actions.
Our problems must be solved In
compliance with the dictates Of
these social and economic laws
which should guide our actions. 1t
has become all too evident that
voluntary compliance. with these

such compliance can only be
