Paris Again
Takes Style
Leadership
All-French Label Put on
Fashions for Coming
Season.
By United Press

By United Press
PARIS, July 13.-With the sun
streaming down in blistering ar
rows, Paris dressmakers today
began the new deal in haute cou-
ture. The semi-annual ritual of
showing the world what the well
dressed woman will wear was
stamped with an sll-French label
for 1934-35. To be among the
fashionably elite, Paris says, Ewes
sisterhood will wear:
Longer skirts.
Narrower shoulders.
Quantities of dead black slightly
relieved.
Exotic hats-many knitted and
flat fur types.
Kid, peccary, doeskin and fiat fur
shoes for daytime; satin, brocade,
velvet and platinum for evening.
Costly fur coats and fox capes.
A modicum of jewelry when not
genuine.
Gloves matching ensembles and
mid-elhow.
Skin-fit lingerie.
Colors from the East Indies, deep
ened, blended, combined and COR
trasted with black and new black
iris brown.
AS the next few days pass, the
list will be varied by each house to
express its particular conception of
the winter mode. Realizing the i'm
possibility of catering to past
extentS to the buyers from the
great beyonds," Paris dlesSmakers
turn once again to themselves and
made Frenchier clothes than has
been their custom for years Moth
ing could be more in their favor
for they sadly had allowed the pen
dulum of please the customer" to
swing too far westward. To take
Paris creations back to New York
was not unlike carrying Goals to
Newcastle.
Not only were the French making
clothes on the American last, but
they were doing a slap-stick job.
A buyer overheard during the
mid-Season collection, remarked:
Whats the matter with this
dress?" Upon reflection he added:
L know! It isn't French-we can
do that in America!"
And the secret was out.
Women who buy and wear Paris
creations this winter will be better
dressed in the mode Franchise than
they have been since the war.

dren, but because he is tired TO
death of them.
The gangSter has been glorif1ed
on the screen beyond all belief.
The prostitute has been held up
continually for our admiration.
Greed, chicanery, leWdneSs, inf
deity, dishonesty of the most
fragrant types have been made
the normal characteristics of
screen heroes.
The good man in the movies,
you will have to admit, is gener-
ally a silly loon, while the decent
woman usually is treated with a
f1ippant condeScension that leaves
us doubtful of her intelligence.
There is no gainSaying the fact
that stage and screen have helped
make indecency fashionable. My
quarrel with the movies is not
that they have over-emphasized
sex but that they have insulted
its beauty.

Dear Jane Jordan-Can any
one succeed who has an inferi-
GRITTY complex? INQUIRER.
Answer-If not, we would all be

human being completely free from
feelings of inade0uacy. Probably
all ambition has its root in inferi-
GRITTY feelings for which we are
striving to compensate. When in

spark which stirs our clod" it is a
socially useful thing instead of a
bugaboo.

George Unger, New York, refusing
TO take any one of the three APP

South Africa to Have
Big Inland Waterway

JOHANNESBURG, South Africa
At present the Union of South Africa
is one of the few civilized countries
which has no navigable inland water
way. The government now proposes
to remedy that with the biggest single
construction scheme in the history OF
the country.
The union Is an arid country and
there are only two rivers of major
Importance, the Vaal and the Orange.
These are really only one river, for
the Vaal flows into the Orange few
miles south of Kimberley. Both rivers
indulge in wide variations of volume
At present, for instance, the Orange
is 2 miles wide between Kakamas
and Kimberley, whereas couple OF
more than yards wide. The Vaal Is
fully half mile wide in the stretch
below Johannesburg after rain. but in
the dry Winter season it sometimes
disappears entirely.
Now the government proposes to
tackle at one main source the twin
evils of drought and flood. 1t has
been enabled to do this by the great
boom in the gold-mining industry and
the consequent huge increase in the
revenue from taxation. AS start
S30,000000 will be set aside for the
development of that part Of the
Vaal that lies between Kimberley and
Vereening, a distance Of 800 miles
and it is the governments intention
to make that great stretch of river
permanently navigable.

nit it to be forgotten We shall all be
exactly where we were a few weeks
ago. Although the administration did
not follow this course. it would have
seemed to me wise had they done so.
The second duty Of the department
is of supreme importance. That is
that. granted the japanese policy to
be what it now seems, nothing shall
be permitted to make the issue appear
as one peculiarly between the United
States and Japan. We are not pc
culiarly the keeper of China. Our
business interests in China are not
comparable with those of Great Bri-
tain and our political interests, by
reason of the Philippines, are not
comparable with those of the Soviet.
The foreign press is already accent
ing the growing conflict between
Japan and America" Moscow is al
ready pouring out propaganda to the
same effect, and the Ambassador Of
the Soviet in Toxic has made an
ostentatiously friendly call on the
japanese war minister.
All the nations of the world, dis
liking the new policy quite as much
as We do. will be trying to persuade
Japan that it is the United States
which leads the opposition. and some
of them will add other suggestions
which are anything but kindly. There
are certainly two nations. and pos
sibly more, which, unfortunately,
would not deeply regret a war be-
tween America and Japan; but there
will never be any danger Of such a
war if the Department Of State is
eternally on guard.
This new policy Of Japan-wEich in
its essentials is not new policy at
all, but a restoration under different
circumstances of the fundamentals of
the philosophy of the japanese state

factors. This is true Of at least three
of the Central American republics,
Guatemala, Honduras and El Saliva
dor, where three generals, Ubico, Ca

Costa Rica and Nicaragua have at

in the latter country the growing in
fiuence of the National Guard in in

In Cuba, unless the Mendieta ad-
ministration brings about economic
relief at an almost miraculous pace,
the chances for domestic peace are
slim. Labor unrest, aided by the
militant opposition furnished by the
intellectual and younger elements, is
making more and more difficult for

Also in Bolivia and Paraguay the
presence of an actual armed struggle
between the two countries over the
Chaco has served to appease, tempo

in neither country is the government

inherent in the contingencies of the
war.

assembly and, then, through the more
complicated one of drafting a new
constitution. As q result of both, the
