EIGHT Die IN FIRE
AT DAM DORMlTORY
Parker Project on Colorado River
Scene Of Tragedy, With Others
Feared Lost.
BY the Associated Press.


BY the Associated Press.
LOS ANGELES, February 3.-Eight
men burned to death in q dormitory
fire at Parker Dam, on the Colorado
River, the metropolitan water district
was informed today.
It was feared others had perished.
A score or more were injured, said
/: brief telephone message from the
Six Companies headquarters.
Ninety men were asleep in the dor
mitory. A high wind swept the flames
through the structure, and carried the
blaze to the mess hall and commits
sary, which were also destroyed.
No names were given in the report
to the district headquarters.
Parker Dam is being built approx
mately 100 miles south of Boulder Dam
to divert a portion Of the Colorado
River into the $20,000,O00 aqueduct
being built by the metropolitan water
district Of Los Angeles and nearby
communities.
Search for bodies was started by
fellow workmen in the isolated con-
struction village. The fire broke out
at 2:30 am.
An appeal was sent out for doctors
and nurses from hospitals along the
242-mile aqueduct.
The fact that a prolonged Winter
dry spell allowed the desert sun to
bake the frame dormitory and make
it highly inf1ammable increased the
seriousness OF the blaze.
The Parker Dam has been the focal
point of bitter dispute between Ari-
zona and California over the water
rights of the Colorado River, now
harnessed by Boulder Dam.

SPRING MILLINERY
OF MANY PERIODS

New French millinery for advance
spring fashions shows the influence Of
various period styles, according to re-
cent reports from the Paris Office of
the Du Pont Style News Service. Hats
rejecting the Flemish art are seen at
several of the houses, the style being
interpreted in different ways by lead
ing designers.
The Chinese art and costume is espe-
cially apparent in creations by Agnes,
who also favors the Abyssinian trend,
finding inspiration for her triangular
and pointed crowns in the Negus Golf
fure.

period and couture Of the RENE Mar

ZONES spring! By the signs of the
~ times in fashions realm you know
it. When the new cottons and linens
announce their arrival and when to
celebrate the event, merchants and
style creators hold high carnival in
the way of style-revealing previews,
then be assured that spring is here
no matter what the calendar and the
calendar and the elements at large
may have to say.
AS a tonic that will revive jaded
and winter-weary spirits like magic
we know of none better than the
new spring and summer fashions, Gre

wash fabrics-the new prints, sheer
and otherwise, the gloriously colorful
rough cottons that tailor so beauti-
fully and the exotic printed linens that
bespeak India, Tahiti, and picturesque
Tyrolean peasantry.

Dresses, suits, ensembles for morning,
for street, for afternoon wear, for din
ner, dancing, active and spectator
sports, all are included in the spring
and summer parade of stylish cottOns
and linens. Children's fashions play
a big part in the displays of spring
and summer cottons and linens.
Front page news in regard to linens
and cottons is they have gone that
highbrow they have entered society in
the form of lovely gowns as preten-
tiously styled as finest of silks and WOOL

was there that the plans were laid for
the new treaty, which is characteristic
of the administrations policy of lib
eral treaties and free trade. The
exact terms of the new pact have
never been released to the newspa-
pers, but it is known that the theme
underlying the entire document is the
remuneration of the misconceptiOn that
Panama is prOtectOrate of the
United States.
Points of Accord.
Actually, the changes brought about
by the new treaty will be paper ones,
largely, with the exceptions of an
agreement to construct a new highway
across the isthmus and of certain COM
mercial concessions by the United
States. Should the time ever come
when Panama's independence needed
protection the job would more than
likely fall to Uncle Sam for Panama

Outstanding among the new widely
heralded fabrics are standings, hand
blocked linens, printed piques, lace that
lends itself to tailoring, blistered
sheers, and rough cottons and count
less other attractive washable weaves.
Plaids, stripes, checks, gorgeous floral
patternings and interesting geometric
motifs often of leaf influence, go to
make up vast print collections.
Color is literally on the rampage
with the primary hues strongly evil
dent and pastels retaining their impor-
lance. Designers express enthusiasm
for dark monotones with high-color
contrasts. Brown, black, the darker
green's and wine shades, are especial
ly promoted as key colors. Two-piece
suits with black skirts topped by bright
colored or white jackets are expected
to enjoy wide vogue during the COM
ing months.
The attractive models pictured are
positive proof that cottons and linens
are going style high this season. This
stunning suit of rough-surfaced plaid
cotton and the frock of printed linen
called forth much admiration from an
enthusiastic audience who witnessed
a most brilliant and dramatically
staged style revue and cotton carnival
held recently in Chicago in the famous
Merchandise Mart where it is claimed
more floor space is devoted to mer-
chandise and fashion interests than
any other building in the world.
A dark blouse is worn with the
plaid suit. The charming linen frock
in navy with red and white checkings
is enlivened with heavy bright red
braid frog fasteners on the blouse,
thus sounding a voguish military note.
