ALLEY DWELLING
CHANGE DEBATED
District Would Be Required to
Put Up $1,000, 900 Under
. 80 Per Cent Plan.

The Alley Dwelling Authority was
to meet this afternoon to consider
suggested changes in its application
for a $l0,614,02l loan with which to
start long delayed low-rent housing
program in, the District.
The local authority had applied
to the Unied States Housing Author
ity for a 100 per cent loan which would
eliminate the necessity Of a Federal
subsidy to lower rentals. Administra-
tor Nathan Straus of the Feredal
Agency has suggested that the appli-
cation be changed to 80 per cent
loan in accordance with the policy of
the United States housing act. Since
this would necessitate the District
government putting up the remaining
10 per cent, or slightly over s1,000,000,
today's session of the A. D. A. was
called to consider this possibility.
Meanwhile, some $500 families in
Washington's slums who expect to be
benefciaries of greatly reduced rentals
are awaiting the decision. Mr.. Straus
believes the local housing program
sould be planned for families whose
income is around 81 900 and has re-
quested information from the A. D. A.
bearing on the rents proposed in
Washington.
The proposal for subsidy to re-
duce rentals TO a minimum was in
dorsed by John Anderson, chairman
of the Washington Industrial Union
Council Committee on Housing, who
criticized the A. D. A. for not SEX
ing to take full advantage of the
Governments offer. In yesterdays
account of the statement Mr.. Ander-
son issued, The Star erred in stating
the chairman was John johnson, q
mistake it now corrects.

nous buttons and pockets of that same
foppish era, which saw the rise and

hasty conquest of the beau monde and
its loss of standing after it became the

One thing we must say for the men,
they do take their fashions with
straight face, and a Wholeheartedness
which self-conscious womanhood lacks.
No grain of salt for them.' There is an
abandon about their mustaches. an
originality in their high or low derbies,
their flowing or stunted neckwear,
that puts us women to shame
Men are the real peacocks. We
females are but miserable counterfeits,
forever aping Dietrich's slacks and
Garbo's hair or breaking out with
shocking splotches after Schiaparelli,
or stomach fullness la Alix, or riotous
hips that show a marked Molyneux
"Zouave" influence.
But the men Oh, boy! Oh. man.
Always they begin with the ridicu-
lous and end with the sublime. Start
ing out with the premise that they are
born to be strangled, they let them
selves go and wind up in blaze of
glory.
Just take a look. sisters, at their
color schemes. their boutonnieres. Con-
slider the more emancipated of their
kind - those great creative geniuses
who cleave to the current length and
cut of the conventional dinner jacket,
only to have their tailors make it up

moss-hung, slapstick look in their
aging photographs that makes each
exposure suggest New Years Eve

Why they should have an edge on
the deadlier sex | cannot say. unless
it's because we women frankly borrow
from Paris and Hollywood. whereas
their plumage is all sheer soul.
