The way to fortify the ma
tional interest against all spe-
cial interests is by promoting
public education in every State
in the Union, under Federal
leadership and encouragement
and with State control and sup
polC.
THE TIME HAS COME
The way to fortify the ma
tional interest against all spe-
cial interests is to build up the
common defense on land and
sea and in the air.
The way to do this lies
clear before the Congress.
To build up the Army and
the Navy and their air forces
Congress has only to support
the leadership Of President
Roosevelt and support his
Secretary OF war and Secretary
of the Navy and carry out the
recommendations of the Baker
Committee.
To build up the American
merchant marine and Ameri-
can air transport. Congress
has only to follow the recon-
mendations of those leaders in
Congress who favor perfecting
the Jones-White Act and in
carrying out the recommends
tions of the Federal Aviation
Commission.
The time has come for the
people themselves to hold their
Senators and Representatives
in Congress to g. strict account
ability whenever and wherever
the national interest is in
volved.
I'm these matters that touch
the very life aud soul Of the
nation, all artifice," as has
been said, "iS out of place."
Senators and Representatives
in Congress who betray the ma
tional interest to serve special
interests should be retired to
private life at the next ma
tional election regardless of
the party with which they are
affiliated.
Only in that way can the
tyranny of special interests be
overthrow.

There is disclosed here quite
a slice of industrial America de-
cidedly on the uptake. This
writer observed some kind of
new galvanic forces at work at
the annual fashion show of the
Association of Merchant Tail
ors of America, in New York,
a few weeks ago. This show al
ways makes a bit of a furry in
the mems style world, but in
the depression years the cloth
iers have been pulling their
punch.
WIDE RANGE
But this year there was moth
ing tentative about the way in
which they showed out their new
sharkskin, Glenurquhart plaid,
pin-check and windoW-pane pat
terns-to say nothing of that
bold splash of color in fabrics
and haberdashery.
An unduly sensitive man
would be rendered helpless by
the new variety of styles
yoked, pleated, shirred, full
and semifree-swing sports coats;
drape and semidrape effects,
broad chest and shoulder breaks,
fitted waist and low button
placements. Fabrics holder and
more varied in pattern or color,
or as restrained as anyone
might want them.
This variety, this adaptiveness
in style, this wide range to suit
the most Grant taste-can all
this be the product of those sup
posedly inadaptable machines
from which flows all the curse
of Standardization? That seemed
to be what Sydney Jones, the
London merchant, was thinking
about, and he has accurately
noted that mass production in
America is shaking itself out Of
a rut. Machines can be lin
bered up amazingly under dar-
ing and resourceful masters.
If Carlyle were writing "Sar-
tor Resartus" here in America
today, he would be overwhelmed
with new and fascinating ma
terial. Take, for instance, the
connection between clothes and
the revolution in transportation.
That might seem a bit elusive,
but it flashes out clearly when

Too Much "It''


Manv a. woman has lost her
husbands love, or at least his
interest, while she banted her
figure down to an animated
bone, and battled to keep her
dimples and her baby-tace.
And Reno is filled with hand
made beauties who had too
much cit" for the prosaic role
of wife, and for their own
good.
To go right on trying to
play the siren, charmer and
beauty, after marriage, takes
a Woman'.s mind off her real
Job. You can't keep your
thoughts on spinach soup;
market prices, counting the
laundry and what John wants
for dinner, and spend all your
days at Turkish baths, beauty
parlors and fashion shows.
Besides, after a few years OF
marriage, woman really gets
awfully little encouragement to
keep up the siren game. There
is not much excitement in doll
ing up in an imported gown
and trying to do a Du Barry
for a man who takes you for
granted, and seldom looks at
you, except when he notices
that your stocking seams are
crooked or that your new eve
ming gown has too many great

If he is a bit obtuse and

At any resort the one-time

sports and formal clothes. If

he's going to see something

If he's an older and more
sedate citizen he's going to see
some heavily bankrolled visitor
achieving a touch of swank out
of a simple drape Of covert cloth
or tweed, which seems to him
just about the ducks eyebrow,
and he's going to find out how
they get that way.
People do dress up when
they're travelling. And that
flares out the modes and, in a
big way, the population, which
is always hot-footing north or
south, builds up style conscious
ness.
Another thing is leisure. Many

MANY FACTORS

banker with the Dundreary
whiskers and his twelve-hour
day used to have a pepper and
salt suit which would last him
five or ten years.
Walter B. Pitkin, prolific OF
keen observation on publ c
trends, notes in his several
timely books the keying up and
heightened conditioning Of men
who get jobs, contracts and ad'
vancement in the stiffening com,
petition these years. That also
is giving the innings to fit and
personable men and, of course
clothes count heavily here.
All in all, there are many
factors which are contributing
to a new, informed, selective de
mand for good clothes, and
merchant tailors and retailers
are meeting it intelligently and
aggressively.
