improving.
IT don't see how 1t Is possible to
make any accurate estimate Of how
much OF the recovery is due to one
cause and how much TO another.
But this much is absolutely clear-the

dicted, is stimulating private industry
by reaching down to the deep-rooted
desires of all Americans for better
homes and better way Of living, 3"
he said.
The Assistant Secretary predicted
that as q result OF increased buying
of automobiles recently the 1899 mod
els will be much improved over this
years output. Because Of increased
production, he said, manufacturers
now feel so confident that they will
make changes and refinements that
otherwise might not have been made. !"
Mr.. Patterson reviewed many agri-
cultural and industrial situations
which indicated business increases.
Money from the pay envelopes of
industry and from the agricultural
districts has been flowing rapidly
through the stores. The volume Of
retail trade for the country has ap-
parently been rising for at least six

During more than four days of the

sent to locals Of the G. l. O. Union.

THE shops are full of beautiful
L new fabrics just crying to be
made up in smart new fashions
and these patterns make it very
easy to do your own sewing. When
you do, of course, you can have
many more clothes because it's so
inexpensive to buy your own, fine
quality fabrics-and then your
clothes, and your daughters, too,
will have that distinctly made-to-
order, well-ftted look that's more
fattering and smart than any,
thing else.
For Large Women.
This afternoon dress is carefully
designed to look well on large fig
ures. The v-neck, cut in one with
the shoulders, makes your face
look less full. The short, ripping
sleeves minimize the size of your
forearm-and they're so pretty
and graceful, too. The skirt is
smooth over the hips, and the bod
ice has necessary bust fullness.
Here's dress that will be your
favorite, when you make it up in
the prettiest silk crepe, georgette
or sheer wool that you can find.
For Slim School Girls.
Your daughter will be delighted
with the grown-up, slick look Of
this basque frock, and yet it's just
as simple as a schoolgirls dress
should be. This is the style that
growing girls, too thin for their
height, look very well in. The
high neckline covers up their col
lar bones, the puff sleeves and
faring skirt have a filling out eff
feet. This style is pretty in so
many fabrics-cotton, wool and
silk. Especially linen, Bingham,
challis, jersey and for dress-up,

At stake in a Manhattan court
room last week was an Owosso,
Mich, boys chance to be Repub-
lican candidate for governor Of New
York. The boy was District Attor-
ney Thomas E. Dewey. His chance
lay in conviction of James j. Hines.
Tammany leader, for alleged con-
spiracy in the fourishing 100 mil
lion-dollar-a-year numbers" rack
ct, once conducted by the late Ar
thur Dutch Schultz) Flegenheimer.
Fortnight ago, the trial opened as
witness after witness added to the
pile Of evidence that made New
York bookies bet 5 to / on Hines
conviction. One-time associate Of
Flegenheimer, George Weinberg
told of attending meeting where
Hines was placed on the payroll
at $500 to 1000 week as 'fixer."
Julius ("Red'') Williams, Negro,
repudiated grand jury testimony
linking Hines and Weinberg, was
promptly slapped back in Jail.
"Big Joe" Ison, another Harlemite,
told how $125 was deducted from his
weekly racket salary for Jimmy
Hines club" But the expose Tom
Dewey waited for did not begin until
one Alexander Pompez took the
stand.
Shortly before the trial opened,
Dewey filed a bill of particulars ac-
cusing his predecessor, William E.
Dodge, and Magistrate Hulon Cap
shaw of connection with the num-
bers racket. When Alexander POM
PEE told last week how Magistrate
Capshaw's court had dismissed IL
of his workers who had been caught
red-handed, it seemed Dewey's
chance had come. But solemn Judge
Ferdinand Pecora ruled there was
improper foundation for bringing
Capshaw's name into the case.
Still in high spirits, Dewey pol
ished up his star witness who was
expected to blow the case wide
open. The witness: ]. Richard
("Dixie'') Davis, legal adviser and
successor to Schultz, who was in
dicted with Hines but pleaded guilty
and turned states evidence. He
was one of the few persons likely to
know where Dutch Schultz got his
tremendous political influence.
