capes are just about perfect. You
may even find sets-a chiffon dress
designed to go with q wool cape.
Lightweight sport coats should

be few.
Hats, advance notices tell US,
favor immense brims. Some are tied
on under the chin to give you that

Some smaller hats, such as turbans,

Helpful Hints for
The Traveller.
A few hints on future styles are
valuable to all the smart women
who are planning Southern trips
f'rinstance:
Chinese coolie coats and trousers
find their place in beach wear .. .
The Bermuda custom Of wearing
shorts a little longer seems to be
taking hold -.
Bicycle culottes continue to be i'm
portant -.
Shirtwaist dresses are still smart,
and the majority have pleated-all-
around skirts with the pleats
stitched just below the hipline and
flaring to the hem -.
Mantillas or romantic, gauzy wells
are featured with evening clothes
and attached to the hair with bright
flowers. The mantillas will be fea-
tured In waist-length styles -.
Riviera fashions favor classic COL
ored slacks worn with checked or
plaid cotton shirts; slacks that reach
just below the knee; others gathered
at the bottom and either worn long
to resemble Zouave suit or pushed
up to emulate plus-fours -.
This is the season to throw care
to the winds, laugh 1iendishly at the
hometown weather reports, and
pwrite scintillating postcards to your
frost-bitten Misunderstanding Having
wonderful time. You ought to zee
my cruise clothes!"

Feminine Touch
In Sportswear.
The silhouette does not seem to
have changed great deal in
sportswear, but it is to be noted that
q more feminine touch is seen in
this type of costume. Pleated
shorts, full pleated skirts, blouses
that button down the back, slacks
with higher waistlines to give a
dressy appearance-all these things
will be important. The windbreaker
jacket should be popular in sport
clothes and gayly colored blouses
and sashes worn in kummerbund
effect are smart with the new slacks.
Fancy little bracelets and anklets
are worn with playthings-and
latest reports tell us that bathing
suits will soon be seen adorned with
tatting, crocheting and ruffles on
high-necked suits. with Gay Nineties
"bloomers." Frankly, it seems that
these extremely Victorian models
will be confined to very few, but
it is fun to speculate on just how
far the return to the Nineties will
60. Up-hair will be held in place
by snoods. bows, ribbons, hoods and
what not, and the smart Southern
lady will wear mauve and orchid
makeup to go with her clothes in
the same color. She will not burn
deeply this year.
For other occasions on this long
awaited cruise trip, the wise woman
will take several casual dresses in
one of the new materials that does
not crush easily and washes like a
handkerchief. These costumes
smart both for the boat and for trips
ashore-will be brightly colored
prints-or plain dresses with colorful
accents.
Lace and Jersey

For evening wear, jersey and lace
are two ideal fabrics. Smart dinner

Secret Ambition Is to Write; Now Wants to
 Get Back in Harness

Boston March 15-(UP)-Samuel Monroe Van Sant, Jr., who won $1OO,OOO in an advertising slogan contest last month, was back at his $50 a week job as shipping clerk to- day after two week vacation.
 The prize money was safetly banked, he told amazed fellow en- ployes who thought he would quit the job for life of leisure.
 MT. and Mrs. Van Sant returned to their one-room and kitchenette apartment Sunday night after visit ing Mrs. Van Sant's sister in Georgia. Their letter box was stuffed with mail and more was waiting at the post office.
 They told newsmen they wanted to go on living just as we did be- fore that $100,000 fell out of the sky That money isn't going to change thing in our lives if we can help it.".
 Van Sant, wearing the same suit, hat and .overcoat he wore when he received the prize money on Wash ington's birthday, said he still would like job in an advertising agency then confessed a secret ambition.
 "I'd like to write," he said. I've tried short stories and had one pub lished. Perhaps I'll get little farm house up in Vermont somewhere and take year off to see if there's any real writing ability in me"

WINNING WILL IS
 ADMITTED TODAY
Probate Judge Slavin Re-
 iects Second COdicil to Document

Judge Dennis J. Slavin in pro- bate court today admitted the will of Miss Almira Catlin Twining, also a codicil to the will. A second CO., dicil to the will was rejected.
 Miss Twining, niece of the late Mark L. Sperry, president for many years of the Scovin Manufacturing O., died February IA, at Tyron North Carolina. She served with the Silas Bronson library for long time, and was the first H. brarian of the, children's depart ment. She retired shortly after the outbreak of the World War.
 The will states that personal ef- fects shall be distributed in accord ance with the terms of memoran- dunn. The rest of the estate is to go to a nephew, Edward Twining Humphreys. The document, drawn June 12, 1917, names Katherine D.. Hamilton as executriX, but Miss Hamilton has declined to serve and the Citizens and Manufacturers Ma tional bank has been named admin istrator.
 The codicil to the will, drawn October 8, 1885, provides for per- petual care of Miss Winnings grave in Riverside cemetery. It also lists a bequest of $500 to godson, Lewis Loper Waldofi of Queens, New York.

Office Supply
 Co. Bankrupt

Petition for bankruptcy was today filed in the United States District Court at New Haven by the directors of the Office
 Supply Company of Ill West
 Main street, this city. Officers of he Office Supply Company have, during the past week, been served with sub pOenas for appearance before w 8 t ter ury's extraordinary grand jury.
 The petition stated that the firms liabilities amounted to $12,854 and that assets were $3,S67.
 Officers of the company are G. Edward Palmer, president and treasurer; Harlow A. Pease of Torrington, vice-president;
 and Miss Carolyn Cozza, secre-
 tary. The company did a huge volume of business with the
 city and it is believed that this
 business is the basis of the grand jury quizzing of the Of- ficers, and examination of the
 company's books.
 On file in the c1ice of the l town clerk, as of yesterday, is
 8 transfer of ownership of an automobile from c. Edward Palmer to Miss Cozza.

 TRADE TREATIES
Conn Senator Among Crit ics of State Dept.'s
 Reciprocity Plan

Washington, March 15.-CUP)- Rep. Hamilton Fish, R., N. Y, charged today that the state de- partment is selling" it's reciprocal trade treaty policy to the public mot on its merits," but with bun combe and propaganda.
 Testifying at a hearing on the proposed British trade pact, Fish said:
 q wish the state department would cease issuing statements sal- most daily that these trade agree ments are synonymous with peace. l see no more connection between the treaties and peace than I do be- tween cheese and chalk
 He said that anything that under mined the protective tariff principle undermined the American standard of living. He asserted the most favored-nation policy granted con- sessions to other nations while pro- curing none in return.
 Free American labor, receiving $3 per day, can not compete with Jap anese labor at 20 cents per day, Fish said, and predicted that in five years Japan would be sending cheap automobiles into the United States.
 Governor Robert Quinn of Rhode Island also attacked phases of the proposed treaty. He urged that no changes be effected in the tariff on textiles, silverWare and other New England products.
 'rt is a matter of the most eX- treme importance to maintain the present rates," Quinn said.
 Since January, 1897, he asserted, there has been a continual decline in New England factory employment for each succeeding month.
 Sn. Francis A. Maloney, D., Conn.,, told the committee on reciprocity information that business in New England was even more depressed" as result of the proposed trade pact.
 Our part of the country has real occasion to fear" he said. Tt wouldn't be hard to reduce certain stricken communities to Shambles." |"

TREK OF MILLS TO
 SOUTH CHECKED

Philadelphia, March 15-(UP)- Emil Rieve, national president of the American Federation of Hosiery Workers, announced today that a campaign to check migration of northern mills to the south would start May 2.
 Unionization of 25.0O0 unorganized southern workers will be the aim of the drive, which will begin at the first southern convention of the union in 26 years at Charlotte, N. C., he said.
 "All resources" will be devoted to the campaign. with 50 veteran or ganizers supplementing the present organizing crew of 15, immediately after the convention, according to Rieve. Tt will not be an invasion, " he said, because we will have al- most 90 per cent southern leader shiu."

'SUPER-CLIPPER' BEING DEVELOPED
Seversky Corp Makes One Capable of Carrying l2O
 Passengers Over Ocean

Farmingdale, N. Y, March 15. - (UP) - The Seversky Aircraft Cor poration announced today that it had designed "super-clipper," !" capable of carrying 120 passengers and crew of 16 across the Atlantic in 12 hours, which could be con- verted into a bomber with a cruis- ing range of 12,000 miles and speed of 300 miles per hour.
 The plane was designed by Major Alexander P. De Seversky, former Russian army pilot, in response to a request by Pan-American Airways for specifications for planes to be used in its proposed transatlantic passenger service.
 We believe that in this design we have a ship which could make travel between the United States and Europe virtually a common oc- currence," De VerSky said. Week ending abroad would not be too improbable. Withal, there would be the convenience of 8 modern ocean liner" ....
 The plane would be powered by eight liquid-cooled, 2,0O0 horse power engines, each able to gen. crate 2,300 horse power on the take off. With a pay load of 43,000 pounds, it would have a cruising range of more than 5000 miles, min- imum cruising speed of 25O and maximum speed of 300 miles per hour, and would carry 17,000 gallons of gasoline.
 The design provides for a dining salon seating 50 persons, promenade, cocktail lounge and observation deck, staterooms, officers quarters, crew quarters, galley, cargo space, control bridge, and a landing foyer. Dial telephones would connect state rooms with recreation rooms.
 The flying wing would have a 25O-foot span, and the officers would make their quarters and op- crate the ship from control bridge at the center. Two retractable pon- toons would have such wide tread that the plane, according to De Seversky, would be able to weather seas that would wreck an ordinary plane.
 Converted into 8 military craft, the plane would carry ten 2,4O0- pound bombs and torpedo boat for communication between plane and shore.

DEMOCRAT.GOP GROUP MOVES FOR IVA PROBE: Compromise l0=Man Joint Congressional Conlmit=
 tee Suggested ADMINISTRATION WILL
 DICTATE FINAL MOVE Norris Resolution Not Generally Acceptable
 to COalitiOnists

Washington, March 15.- (UP) - A Democratic-Re- publican coalition today in- troduced resolutions in the House and Senate for a com- prehensive 10-man joint con- gressional investigation of the New Deals Tennessee Valley Authority. The ide1- tical resolutions, drafted at a secret conference last night, were designed to check efforts of administration leaders to regain control of the impending in- vestigation, which generally is ex- pected to provide the most power full political ammunition of the 1888 campaign.
 Senators H. Styles Bridges, Re- publican, Ned Hampshire, and Will liam H. King, Democrat, Utah, in the Senate, combined with Repre- sentatives Walter C.. Andrews, Re- publican, New York, and Andrew J. May, Democrat, Kentucky, in the House to sponsor the resolutions. House Minority Leader Bertrand Shell, Republican, New York, par ticipated in the conferences, but the IVA inquiry advocates failed in efforts to. get Representative Maury Maverick, Democrat, Texas, to join them.
 Can Block Move
 Generally, it appeared likely that the administration would be able to block the coalition move to sponsor the investigation and direct its course. Although the administra- tion leadership in both houses sought to delay action until after Fridays second White House con- ference with the quarreling IVA directors, they were expected even- tually to put through their own resolution for 8 joint investigation.
 With both sides virtually agreed on the necessity for Congressional inquiry, the conflict centered on sponsorship of the resolutions and the specific matters into which the

cars passed ln reVleW before the fuehrer, who stood on the steps of the old Hapsburg palace facing Heroes Square and the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.
 Approximately 25,000 German and Austrian troops marched past in the review.
 On accepting the entrance of his homeland into the reich as "the greatest accomplishment of my life" Hitler gave hint of the promised land of Nazism when he said:
 By work and industry and col Liberation, we will solve the great social problem"
 Hundreds of thousands were massed around the square, madly cheering Hitler and the troops. It was the most impressive military display Vienna has seen since the World war.
 While the pageantry was in prog ress, the speedy work of Ratification of Austria continued. Regulations for the April 10 plebiscite were issued and they included this sentence: Jews are excluded from voting," typifying the repression of the Jews which is in progress in the country.
 Hitler's speech came between the ceremony of laying wreath on the tomb of the unknown soldier and the military review. Its high point came when he said solemnly:
 "As fuehrer report the entrance of my home country into the Ger man reich"
 Prior to Hitler's speech, Dr. Ar thur von Seyss-Inquart handed over to Hitler his powers as provisional chancellor-president and was desig- mated by Hitler statthalter or gover- nor of the German province of Austria.
 Hitler Salated almost without pause. Occasionally he looked up at the evolutions of more than 400 air. planes, circling overhead.

Extreme Left Elements Move to Take Over
 Government LOYALIST PREMIER FAILS IN FRENCH PLEA Francois Moroccan Caval= ry Sweep Toward
 Catalan Border
BY HARRISON LAROCHE United Press Staff Correspondent

Hendaye, Franco-Spanish Frontier, March 15. = (UP) - Extreme left clements were reported to be moving to seize power in Barcelona, the capital of Loyalist Spain as Loyalist defense lines crumbled back toward the Catalonian border today. Dis patches from Barcelona described scenes Of near panic in the city and said the thunder of the Nationalist attack could be heard from the west, weheer des- perate Loyalist troops have failed to halt four-day drive by forces of Generalissimo Francisco Franco.
 Reliable reports said that Layalist Premier Juan Negrin flew to Paris earlier this week and made last desperate appeal for French artil- lery and airplanes. The aid he sought was refused.
 Prepared to Flee
 Unconfirmed reports said that leaders of the Loyalist government, now established in Barcelona, were preparing to flee to France as ex- tremist elements demanded that power be turned over to them.
 Franco's Moroccan cavalry swept east from Caspe and was within 20 miles of the Catalan border. It also was pressing fast toward the coast in a movement that would cut off Madrid, Valencia, and other parts of Loyalist Spain from Catalonia.
 Dispatches described the residents of Barcelona as becoming more alarmed hourly.
 Labor Seeks Control
 Men and women filled the streets, carrying banners demanding that the government turn over power to the extremist labor groups, the CNT. UGT and TAI, banded together by the danger of invasion.
 Civilians were fleeing toward the French border from the region of Lerida as the Nationalists contin- ued their powerful drive, occupying Alcaniz and Caspe.
 Nationalists planes intensified their attack. They showered hun- dreds of tons of explosives on Bar celona, Tarragona and Reus and other coastal towns in some of the f1ercest raiding since the war began.
 Calls on Youths
 The government called up the 1941 class of ooys from IT to IS years of age. Mobilization was ex-
