HUGE VOTE BACKS
FLAND|N BUDGET.
French Premier Pushes War
Chest Toward Early
Passage.

BY the Associated Press.
PARIS, December L. Premier
Pierre Etienne Flandin got an over
vhelming vote of confidence in the
Chamber of Deputies today as he
pushed the 1885 budget, with its r.
900, 100000 francs approximately
s79O ooO.0O0) for the French war
chest, toward early passage through
Parliament.
The vote, 457 to 100, even bigger
than that given Flandin when his
government took office, came after the
premier asked secret appropriation of
3,700.0O0 francs (about $244 ,0O0) ito
insure peace at home"
A French bid for preservation OF
the status quo in the Saar was made.
meanwhile. by Foreign Minister Pierre
Laval when he tacitly promised the
Saarlanders that France will not op-
pose the regions eventual return to
Germany if the voters want to wait
for the end of the Hitler regime.
Free Hand Promised Saar.
Laval told the Chamber of Depu-
ties that the government would not
offer opposition if the League Coun-
Gil decided to give the Saar to Ger

votes to remain under League of Ma
tions jurisdiction at the plebisclte
January 13. tThe Saar will vote
whether to rejoin Germany. unite with
France. or remain under the jurisdic-
ton of the League of NatlonsD
The government policy of arms
strength as the best safeguard against
war was virtually unopposed in the
Parliament, which yesterday heard
Laval ask Hitler to show that he
means peace by deeds, not words.
The Socialist leader. Leon Blum,
bitterly assailed Hitlerism at today's
session, asserting moral quaran-
tine" should be established against
the Nazis, but urged direct conver-
sations with Germany in the ends
Of peace.

hand stretched toward us, even hands

Meanwhile, Joachim Won Ribben-
trop. Hitler's personal emissary, who
was in the galleries yesterday when
Laval urged Germany to enter the
proposed Eastern Locarno security
pact, departed for home today after
an automobile accident in which
he narrowly escaped injury.
Whether Won Ribbentrop's reported
efforts to get French and German war
veterans lined up together to work
against the fear of war were success
full could not be ascertained, but he
did manage to start something ap-
preaching war in the Chamber of
Deputies.
Deputy Franklin -Bouillon last night
accused Robert Monnier, municipal
councilman. of being an inforrner
and an accomplice of a notorious spy,
this in connection with the an
nounced disposition of French veterans
to negotiate privately with German
veterans, and today Monnier asked a
veterans publication to name Jury

Beauty Seekers
Shun Double
Chins
BY JULIET SHELBY
The Beauty Reporter

# your underchin is losing
its firm, youthful contour
there is no time to waste IN
hoping for miracles.
At the first sign of a double
chin, the beauty:wise woman
puts forth every effort to avoid
it. She exercises the impor-
tant muscles by rotating her
head on her shoulders; she
next messages and pats her
underchin-then she uses a
special cohesive tape for hold
ing these muscles firmly in
place while she is sleeping.
After the skin has been
thoroughly cleansed and the
rotating exercise gone through,
a generous amount Of cream
should be applied to the under
chin. Then firm, patting
movements with the backs Of
the fingers should be used for
two minutes over this area.
II the skin absorbs much Of
the cream first applied, and
there's very little left on the
surface, apply another and a
more generous coating; then
use the necessary length Of
cohesive tape and wrap it from
the underchin over the top Of
the head
Because this is a cohesive
product. it will adhere to
nothing but itself. Adhesive
tape, you know, plays havoc
with skin, hair, or, in fact,
everything against which its
gummy substance is pressed.
The cohesivS chin-strap
should remain in place until
morning. Before removing it, I
suggest that you dust q little
talcum powder over it. This
temporarily destroys the cohe-
sive property so that the strap
may be laid aside and U
again and again. To res
It's cohesive quality, simply ,
the tape into warm, soapy
water and Immediately the
strap Is returned to its original
state.
You're sure to like the
beauty-giving virtues and the
comfort Of this chin strap.
When properly adjusted it holds
the important muscles firmly
In place and 80 reshapeS q chin
that is losing its firm, youthful
contour.

There, the rocks are as III
portant as the plants, and one
even hears of imperial edicts
prescribing the price that can
be paid for rocks, sent out now
and then.
Our rock gardens are for the
most part very undeveloped and
crude; we would do well to
study some Of the Japanese ar
rangements appearing in books,
and try to profit thereby!
Ideal Situation
An ideal situation for rock
garden is one where the plants
are snow.protected in winter,
and not subjected to too much
hot sun in summer. Therefore,
here in Washington, our rock
gardens must necessarily be-
come q spring joy. when the del
icate plants should be at their
best.
# you have a rocky bank, or
wall, your problem is simple.
as all you have to do is perhaps
enlarge some Of the cracks and
fill them with a rich, not too
light soil consisting Of good
loan and one-fourth manure.
A brookside, on which boulders
and rocks are plentiful, can be
charmingly utilized. Construct
ing a whole new rockery is quite
a problem, and should only be
undertaken with the advice Of
an expert.
Native Material
This type Of garden should be
planted in as wild and informal
a manner as possible, and much
native material may be used.
Bulbs are excellent as a start,
especially snowdrops, narcissus,
fritillarias, scillas and crocuses.

must have been much the same
as the early Chilean wine which
I referred to in q previous
article.
Later, after Argentina became
an independent nation, many
French varieties Of vines were
imported, among them the
Malbeck, the Semillon, Cabernet
and Sauvignon types. The first
Malbeck vines were planted
about 1860, and the grapes
throve, and produced excellent
wine.
Since then, the industry has
steadily expanded, with good
soil, irrigation, favorable eli
mate, and a protecting tariff.
The vines themselves are excel
lent, both in flavor and bouquet;
they are Of good alcoholic COT,

taste here in the United Etates.

Marriage without Love
Dear Miss Fairfax:
About six months ago I met q
young man in the Government
office where we are both en-
ployed. He took me out quite
often. We found we liked each
other, and after a while we de-
cided to marry. So it's all set
tied, and in q month I shall be
. Q bride.
But there's something lack
ing. I am not the least bit ex'
cited about my fiance. He Is q
fine young man and my family
think awfully well Of him.
But, honestly, Miss Fairfax,
7 don't care q bit about having
him kiss me, and I only hope
I'm not going to regret giving
UP my job for anything SO full
Of pitfalls as marriage is said
to be. What do you think?

MidSeason collections include
not only summer clothes, but
things for travel and for early
fall. So they're well worth
studying, for they contain the
basis Of the autumn mode. and
are a perfect guide for us in our
summer buying, In case we
want to be ultra smart, and
strictly Partisan.
Narrow Silhouette
A narrow silhouette is pre-.
valent in many showings, and
it looks to me like a probable
return to pre-war fashions.
which have been considerably
talked Of in this country too.
Evening skirts are split into
loose panels at the hemline. Re
member the old split skirts?
That's what it sounds like to
these old ears.
Sleeves remain boxy, but that
doesn't mean that they jut at
the shoulder. FulnesS Is down
further, though tulle and some
such materials still make scarfs
and other fluffiness for evening
gowns, on and around the
shoulders. There are many
kimono sleeves too, which means
smooth shoulders.
CellOphane I'm Wool
Fabrics are fascinating, as
usual. CottonS are much used
for daytime, often in novelty
weaveS, and organdies and
similar fabrics hold a big place
on the evening stage. In the
travel and advance fall things,
woolen with cellophane woven
in for a bit Of gleam, and other
equally unusual fabrics lend a
note Of difference.
It's hard to summarize colors,
for each designer has his or her
pets. But brown is shown in
both summer and fall versions,
which should mean much. Blues
are popular in warm-weather
clothes, and appear again in
numbers for autumn, and that
too means much.
Many Tones
There are many grayed tones,
off-toneS, interesting tones,
which probably means that
those Of US who do not want to
follow the straight and narrow,
can do pretty much what we
4 please in the way Of color.
FewsV American buyers 60 to
