r. A. order was issued to the legal
division requiring that no opinions OF
the legal staff be given to outsiders
without formal permission from an
executive officer of the division.
Officials repeatedly have found
themselves embarrassed by the pro-
duction of their own confidential
views in the hands of groups having
business with N. r. A.
Another order informed the per-
sonnel that letters marked per
sonal" but addressed to any official
at the N. R. A. offices were liable to
be opened in. the mailing division.
This was done, 1t was explained
because large numbers Of letters deal
ing with Government business have
been sent under q personal mark by
individuals who hoped thereby to OBJ
tain more prompt attention from the
administration.

This young woman's hat. II you

The most important bit Of news In
regard TO this hat is that II has an

the crown just over the right eye.
II is monogrammed because the
fashionable thing to do Is to mono

youthful in line and exceedingly
flatterlng. The sleeves are full be-
low the elbow. which is a character
istlc feature OF many OF the new
est coats. The black felt sombrero
is edged and banded with black
wool.
If you are having suit tailored,
let 1t reflect Russian inspiration In
that Its tunic-like coat be bordered
with fur all around, even up the
front or slde-front fastening. There
should be an outstanding collar fenc-
ing the throat. A cOssack turban
of matching fur with a muff of the
same are essential to complete the
picture.
The Shree- quarter coat, all OF fur.
with wide belt across the front and
full peasant sleeves, is also IA
vorlte. Other fur style notes point
to the return of gray squirrel into
favor, also borders Of tawny, snowy
furs around hemlines or landings
of far furs such as caracul or nu-
tria. A black cloth cossack outfit
with landings. tall turban and muff
of black caracul, is chic.

China'S Masses Viewed
Likely to Run Amuck

leading powers would cooperate to
help put China on her feet.
Japan, however, has put thumbs
down on the Sun Yat-sen scheme.
Even the feeble efforts of the League
of Nations to aid China have been
frowned upon by Nippon. Toxic
charges the Leagues representatives
in the Orient played politics.
Japans hands off" China policy
dooms the plans of the league or
any foreign power to lerd China
helping hand. Japan virtually
warned the world that China was
her sphere and that any inter
ference" in that country would be
regarded as hostile to her. She in
timated she might even resort TO
force, if necessary.
Nippon's policy is frankly to keep
China weak. A strong China would
be a threat to Japan. A modern
nation with 45O,0OO,0O0 population
would be more than a match for
Japan, next door, with 65,OOO,OO0.
A China divided against herself,
chaotic and poverty-stricken, plays
into the hands of the island en-
pire next door.
Conditions within China, there
fore, stand to grow worse instead
of better. An anti-foreign uprising
known as the Boxer Rebellion stood
the world on its beam-end some
thirty-four years ago. A similar
outburst, whether labeled Commun-
ism or otherwise, is in the making.
Foreign intervention would fol-
low inevitably. This would likely
lead to China's partition. japan,
this time, would get the lions share.
The United States, as usual, would
come out at the little end Of the
horn.
For while Japan and some of the
nations of Europe have been, and
still are, agreeable to dividing
Chinese territory between them, the
only stake the United States has in
that quarter of the world is a share
in the market which prosperous,
united China would offer.

WORLD WHEAT
PACT SLASHES
U. S. EXPORTS
Proposal Would Cut Quota
Nearly to Vanishing
Point.
,copyr,gh.. 1924. BY United Press,

tCoovrght. 1894 BY United Pressl
LONDON. Aug. ia new draft
world wheat agreement. under con-
Sideraton by the international wheat
advisory committee. would slash the
United States export quota almost
to the vanishing point II was learned
today.
Whereas the United States was
allotted a 100000 bushel quota for
the last crop year and a prospective
quota of 100000 bushels for the
new crop year. the agreement would
give America quota OF but
100000 bushels
This quota would compare with
the following allowances for other
countries during the year terminate
ing July 81, 1885.
Canada 250,000.000 bushels: Ar
gentina. 100000 900 bushels; Aus
tralia. l2O,0OO000 bushels; Russia.
2OOOO,OO0 bushels: Hungary, 12.000,-
900 bushels, and Bulgaria and Jugo-
slavia. 100000 bushels each.
Thus the total world exports for
the 1934-l935 year would be 565,0OO,-
600 bushels.
American quotas for the quarterly
periods into which the allotments
would be divided are set as follows:
August October 1884, 100000
bushels; November 1934-January
1885, 100000 bushels; February
April 1885 100000 bushels; May
July 1885, 100000 bushels
The suggested quotas are embodied
in an anex of a report by subcom-
mttecS Of the conference. Secre-
tary Andrew Cairns of the confer
enCe circulated the annex privately
among delegates He said that the
tabulated figures were preliminary
approximations intended to serve as
examples" but delegates were I'M
derstood to regard the figures as
most significant even as suggestions.
The draft pact is designed to in
crease wheat prices by more drastic
regulation Of exports Nine wheat
exporting countries we're considered.
Yugoslavia was given no quota at
all. Each country's quota would be
divided, like that of the United
States. into quarterly lots, each
specified as to amount.
