A PPARENTLY the investing
~ public is manifestng signs Of
becoming conscious. No bet
ter reason for this presumption ex-
ISIS than the fact that executives
Of several domestic business cOrpo-
IatIOns in the last fortnight have
announced financing or rehnancing
plans which have as their basis the
utilization Of common stock issues.
II goes without saving that the cor
pOratlOns would not entertain such
views unless they we're sanguine
that current popularity appears
secure enough to stand the strain.
OF course. j. should be under
stood that, generally speaking,
these plans which have been an
nOunced are merely IN the forma-
tive stages. No definite commit
ments have been made and the
completion Of the contemplated
programs are contingent upon the
market department OF common
stocks as a group over the next
few weeks.

of providing for the maturities re-
manned in an uncertain stage un-
til July II. when the company
mailed to holders of the notes an
nOuncement of the extension plan

posed that the plan become oper-

During the last week there has
been increasing doubt that the nee

lend success to the plan, although
official announcement on that point
has not been made.

RULES TO AID IN
CHOOSING PRINT
Everyone Needs At Least One
Gay Print But Il Must Be
Carefully Selected
~ MARIAN YOUNG

(NEA Service Staff Correspondent)
New York-The printed dress you
buy to brighten up your winter coat
and to wear all spring and summer
as well Is the most fascinating thing
in your WARDROBE or It. Is simply
dreadful. There seems to be no mid
die ground.
However, don't let this scare you
out Of the idea Of getting . print.
Every girl needs ct least one and Il
you keep . few rules In mind when
you shop for yours, there's no reason
under the sun why you should 80
wrong.
Watch Designs
First Of all. select pattern that
Is simple enough to have . soothing
effect on the eyes yet intricate enough
to be interesting. Certain xig1aggins
designs affect the nerves and eyes
much the same way as do those hor.
rible trains that rush at you In news
reels. You certainly don't want TO
wear anything that makes your best
beau feel Is though he had Just taken
. double ride on . roller coaster, %
be carefull
II you have the slightest tendency
toward plumpness, don't wear . polka
dot print or one that features an
enormous floral pattern. Vertical
stripes and tiny florals that have IN
up and down appearance will be In.
tnitely more flattering.
Remember that the most exciting

Simplicity Best
Look for spaced florals. plain spots
and small geometrics. You'll like the
new striped patterns, particularly
hairlines, wavy lines and vertical and
diagonal bands. II matelasse strikes
your fancy, better get . diminutive
geometric. Don't overlook wine COL
ored backgrounds In various shades.
Don't forget that simplicity Of line
and design Is real virtue q far as
prints are concerned. Indulge your
taste for frtlls and fussy details when
you pick plain clothes, but don't do
1t when you get . print. Intricate
touches are likely to detract from the
interesting fabric itself.

NETS STAGE COMEBACK

Sheer. flattering net In black, deep
blue and brown Is the last word for
spring evenings. While this fabric
Is not new, and usually Is associated
with ruffles ana fluff. designers now
have fashioned It into starlkly tailored
little frocks with prim white collars.
The result Is one Of poignant and
anachronistic charm. A grand spring
tonic for . dropping wardrobe.
