She knows that sum- mer frocks, however pretty, never give her the glamorous, carefully turned out look she acquires with a dark-colored autumn dress and the abso- lutely correct accessories. So, fickle though it seems, she generally is more than glad to turn her back on those serv- iceable cotton and printed silk summer things in favor of new models that are as eye filling as an autumn sunset.
 First of all, fall street dresses are so slimly tailored that you wonder how on earth you ever nut up with loose-fitting summer frocks. Long sleeves make you seem so much more sophisticated that you can't bear to remember how you loved sleeveless tennis dresses. As for accessories-well, when you look at trim suede shoes and bags and lovely fall hats in felt and velvet, you'll be more

 the wife who lives most with them.
 Even if they have no children they have loved something i'm common. Ask any divorced woman who has had to give up her home and she will tell you it was almost as bard to leave her furniture as to leave her husband. Young married couples should plan for furniture which they expect will become a

EpYOUR CHILDREN

It is a nice habit for children to ! develop, that of being washed and dressed" as we used to call it, at four CT five o'clock in the afternoon, even though it is only to jump into the tub and then don a pair of those nothings that | little children wear now in sum- mer.
 The feel" of grooming and the self-respect it gives a child is far more important than the grooming itself.
 Not only that, but the daily habit, once ingrained, keeps on through the years.
 After they are three they can do it themselves if clothes are kept where they can get at them, and the routine is learned by de- grees of self help.
 Some Pros and Cons
 There are several reasons, how ever, why busy mothers may not see the actual necessity of an- other change of raiment at this late hour of the day. One is that it is so close to bed time.
 Often, too, we are likely to think this way, Johnny just gets dirty again. The minute have him dressed he is rolling on the dirty grass, or climbing over peo ple's steps and porches."
 This is true, but if we figured that way, always, there would oe no incentive for ever dressing at all. There is one small item in the matter of training that might be mentioned in this connection namely, hat it is good for chill dren to conquer their rolling, and padding and climbing about once in while. Not only good for physical reasons, but for the. cul- tivation of control and composurc.
 Period of Relaxation
 After children have been tub bed and dressed and all slicked up, they can very easily be made with quietness.

 Yes, it makes washing, but still root for the crepes and seer suckers that can be doused, dried and worn without starching or ironing. in hot weather. They can, of course, be donned newt morn- ing after so brief wear.
 Children have their spirits and tempers sweetened by a feeling of cleanliness. The hot, tired sticky child will be an unhappy, cross little person. Soap and water is the best nerve tonic 1 know for any one, old or young.

than willing to give your white shoes away and to put your wide- brimmed white hat right on the top shelf of the least-used closet.
 Dark Color Combinations
 Though black generally is rec omm ended for the first fall dress, browns, dark grays. rust and deep greens are good this year. Combl- stunning, particularly for, the very young. If you can get black, remember that it can be trimmed with colorful touches as well as with plain white.
 You can go in for fascinating details or you can stick to plain, beautifully cut designs. Either IS right in style.
 For instance, a vestee and wide cuffs of white braid are among the details that make the black crepe street dress (left) so inter- esting. The braid is sewn to form eyelets for the lacings which are finished with ivory tips. The sleeves - full, bell-shaped ones that emphasize the natural shoul- der line-and the narrow, f1utter- HE TSV6TS dIS OthCL StytO POlit6 that give this dress an aid of elc- gance and sophistication. With it is shown a peaked beret of silk twill, an antelope bag and white | gloves.
 And New Accessories
 The other September outfit (right) depends on lines for it's dash and charm. Inspired by Molyneux, 1t consists of a stream lined dress of black crepe and loose-fitting, swagger-type jacket of rust in the same fabrics. The sash, collar and cuffs on the dress match the jacket, which is trim med down the center of the back with a row of rust buttons. The pancake beret is of black felt. If you want to see whats new in smart accessories, look at the bags and shoes on the counter in the sketch. They are, from left to right, suede oxfords trimmed with patent leather, brown suede bag with gold chain handle. black operapumps stitched with white, an antelope bag and a plain felt one that's stitched to resemble ld-fashioned quilting.

PARIS STYLES
By MARY KNIGHT

Paris, (UP)-Georgetet Renal makes most of her coats full- length and contrasts them with the dress worn beneath.
 A bright Malachite green flamisol dress with draped neckline and kimono sleeves for instance, has a long coat of one of the new wools from Chatillon Mouly Roussel that looks like a thick wool alpaca. The coat has sleeves which widen at the el- bow and the neckline is finished off with a large bow. The belt of supple suede is the same color as the coat and is worn on the dress when the coat Is removed. The coat is in Madame Renals new Black lris".
 For evening, one of the most striking ensembles from this house is a dress of large check lame in black and white squares. The skirt is slit tothe knee in front and has a triple row of small stiff ruffles over one hip, A small ruffle is also used as a border at the hem.

The parents. as l have pointed out before, by their education, ideals. upright life, etc., improve their own bodies and minds, but this affects only their own body-cells and does not affect the germ-cells in so far as science can determine. This is very fortunate since if improvement or the parents improved their chii- dren. neglect and damage to their bodies and minds would damage the children.

At this time of year, a girl dis covers that the suntan which was so fiattering with active sports clothes is quite horrible with new fall street dresses. In addition to the shade of her skin which, good ness knows, is annoying enough. there are the problems of dry ness and coarse pores.
 Of course, conscientious use of suntan lotion in the daytime and tissue cream at night would have prevented the present catastrophe but there's no use talking about that now. Action Is more impor- tant-that Is. action combined with a good bleaching cream and a pore shrinking. bleaching tonic.
 There are two such prepara- tions on the market now. As you have probably surmised. both con- tain lemon juice. The cream is cleanser as well as a softener, and the lotion tones the skin and seems to shrink enlarged pores. Besides they smell good enough to eat.
 When you've washed face and neck with soap and water. smooth on the bleaching cream. Let 1t stay on for Ave minutes and then remove with cleansing tissue. Aft erward pat on the bleaching. ton ing skin tonic and let 1t dry If you feel that you need another coat of cream, part of which can stay on all night. smooth thin layer of the same thick cream on your skin.

u of Roosevelt's Executive Council" in
a final report to President Roosevelt yes
terday, claims that 100000 jobless have
found jobs in industry a like amount
have been given jobs in temporary pub
lie employment" and $4,000 have found
Jobs on permanent public works after one year of
the Roosevelt New Deal"
As in his past reports, Richberg is content to
merely cite these Advances authoritative facts are
not part of his reports. Even the most super
fetal examination shows up these advances as
ballyhood reminiscent of that which the Hoover
regime splashed over the front pages of the capt
talst sheets to bolster up its barney,
Thus, to take the employment figures Of the A.
F. of L., not only have no gains been made in in
dustrial employment during the past year, but
period of recession has actually set in. This Is
amply borne out by the figures of the National In
dustrial Conference Board which cites job decline
in July through which $4,000 workers lost their
Jobs
Yet the figures of both these groups do not take
into account the 25O,OOO youth who each year be-
come of working age, the farmers who have been
ruined by the drought and A.A.A. crop reduction,
and the tenant farmers who have been driven off
the land where the large land owners have found
1t more profitable to take land out of production.
AS the figures Of the Labor Research Association
prove, no appreciate gains have been made in en-
ployment by the Roosevelt administration

ter those of Secretary of the Interior Ickes include
375OOO young workers in the C.C.C. camps.

A Significant Victory

THE speedy and complete victory of the
united front struggle around the En-
pire Cafeteria in Harlem for jobs for Ne
groes has dealt tremendous blow against
the ruling class policy of excluding Ne
groes from the better paid jobs
TIE victory is a direct result of the bold
application Of the correct revolutionary tactic of the
fighting alliance of Negro and white workers for
their mutual interests against the common enemy.
1t is smashing refutation of the lies of the Ne
gro reformst leaders that the white workers cannot
be won for the struggle for Negro rights 1t pro-
vides brilliant example of how properly to con-
duct the fight against job discrimination.
In sharp contrast to the reformist controlled
boycott movement the struggle around the Empire
Cafeteria was carried out on the basis of uniting
the working class in a relentless fight for Negro
rights, against firing or other vctimizaton Of the
white employees and by linking the demands of the
white employees for shorter hours, better cond-
tons etc, with the demand for Jobs for Negroes As
result the fight for the hiring of Negroes was
actively supported by the white employees Of the
cafeteria and by the white workers patronizing the
place.
The fight must now be carried further cementing
the unity of Negro and white workers and draw
ing into the united front movement all organiza-
tons willing to struggle for Negro rights.

The comrades in the Carol1nas are also
much more sensitive than the leading COM
rades of some of the other Districts. They real
lied that in speaking directly to Boston, the weak
est district, we were really talking to all textile
Districts to the Carolnas, to Connecticut, to New
Jersey, to Pennsylvania. The Carolina comrades,
unlike the comrades from each of these other tex
tile centers, responded with increased orders.
Following yesterdays editorial received the
following telegram:
Increase n. c. bundles to following figures:
Charlotte, Burlington, Concord 300 each; DAN
willie, Va, 400, and Glover 5. c., So"
It should not be necessary to urge old es-
tablished districts to learn from the young Party
organization in the South. But all districts must
learn to move in critical strike situations like the
present.
We again inform all comrades
The Central Committee expects you to double the
present Daily Worker circulation in the textile areas
by Wednesday tomorrow and to triple it by Satur-
day of this week.
Every reader of the Daily Worker awaits
the answer from New Jersey Pennsylvania, and
Connecticut.
