The initiation move reached its
highwater mark with passage of

defeated by a presidential veto of

Speaking of anna Karenina,"
one of the most unusual things in
the history of motion pictures

that they had better pad the role

script, realized that the padding
would deviate too greatly from the
original story, so she had the role
cut to the bone and will appear
in the picture sans screen credit.

probably will think she is being

Not few of this departments
feminine readers have requested a
description of Jane Cowps gowns.
This was just too much for your
editor, who can only say the star
wore very becoming frocks. Dolly
Cameron helps me out of a di'
lemma with this description:
Jane Cowl, starring here this
week with John Halliday in Rain
from Heaven" wears the most
lovely clothes, the kind every
woman wants and can picture
herself moving about in, in
queenly grandeur, with romance
filling her every breathing mo-
ment.
In the first act, she comes on
in a trailing black uncut velvet
gown, worn with a coatlike tunic
of Chinese red and gold metal
cloth, made on severely simple
lines, with a belt of the same
material holding it at the waist
line, and at the neckline bow
of the velvet showed.
In the second act, she wore two
costumes, the first one an after
noon gown of black chiffon with
a pattern of large roses shading
from American beauty to palest
pink scattered over it, and two
silk roses, one of red and the
other of pink, formed the trim
ming on the bodice. The sleeves,
which were long. were Of the type
known as leg-omutton.
The other was an evening gown
of parchment-tinted velvet, long
and soignee, with a square decol-
letage and narrow train.
She wore a bracelt composed
of several strands of pearls with
a diamond clasp to match her
necklace, and her wrap was Of
luStrous satin of pale oyster tint,
with a deep oval yoke of velvet
to match her gown, collared with
a scarf of sable. The satin, fulled
on somewhat in ruffle effect. ex-
tended down to her fingertips,
with Sits for her arms.
Last but far from least, she
wore a chartreuse yellow chiffon
tea grown that had draped bod
ice with the cowl neckline held
ao either side with diamond clips
and long sleeves. The skirt ap-
parently was made of layers Of
the chiffon, the long train add
ing greatly to its dignity and
beauty. With this she wore a gold
bangle bracelet with what looked
like a round bell hanging from it
on fine chain.

RELIEF BILL IS
 SENT TO SENATE

(Continued from Page 1.) the committee originally consid- cred the bill. McCarran's proposal was rejected then, but approved when it was brought up in the Sen ate.
 Today's action of the committee was in decided contrast to the de- lay which occurred when the bill first came over to the Senate after passage by the House on Jan. 24.
 The committee debated its var ious provisions until Feb. IA before sending 1t into the midst of the Senate prevailing wage controversy which subsequently, caused its re- commital to the committee.
 The swift action was taken to mean the administration is confi- dent that the legislation snarl has been adjusted to such a point that orderly progress can be made in the face of, an unruly Senate situa- ton.
 Leaders of organized labor, how ever, declared they would not weaken in their fight for the pre- vailing wage amendment.
 McCarran offered his amend ment in exactly the form previous ly approved by the Senate.
