what economies are to be expected.
In brief, there are in the bill many
things to which the President was
stongly opposed and there has been
taken out almost everything he partic-

though there were many who thought
it an inexcucable extravaganza, no
fight was made because it would have

fashioned with sunburst darts, con-
cealed elastic bands, and reinforce
ments of stiffened material. Many
women also wear filters made of spe-
cially designed pads of spiralled net
and chiffon-covered cotton.
Where the hips are slender, but a
spot-lighted abdomen needs control,
lightweight elastic girdle. with a REIN
forced fabric panel, will reduce the
bulge. The same thing in the back
fattens contours there and prevents
too-sudden curve from waistline to
hips.
The best control, for heavy abb
domen, however, is an all-in-one gar
ment with sturdy but pliable front
boning, adjustable lacing. and elastic
insets with two-way stretch. Some
times, the bust is pendulous in a
figure Of this kind Then the brassiere
top should be full-bodiced with low
diaphragm band, to mould the flesh
without unduly emphasizing its pro-
portions.
II your figure is slender, wear
lightweight all-in-one garment or a
combination of pantie-girdle and BAN
deau. Your foundation should define
your silhouette. mould your hips,
pinch in your waist. and lift the bust.
One of the best fabrics for this purpose
is hand-knitted chiffon elastic Other
excellent girdles use only panels of this
"fashioning" material.
The well-planned wardrobe has two
girdles of the same model to be worn
alternately. This is an economy in the
long run, because neither loses its
shape as quickly, and each gives you
longer wear and more lasting figure
control

DOW that the cooler weather is
IN approaching. women are
1 thinking of the right girdle,
corset, or foundation, for beauty might
almost be said to begin with the figure.
Control is needed, no matter how
perfect the figure. Corsets do more
than camoufage faults. They insure
better fit to clothes, give muscles
needed support, improve the posture
and, by holding flesh more compactly.
give better silhouette.
But do you know how to choose the
proper corset? There are expert tricks
to guide us, and so consulted well
known corsetiere. She analysed COM
mon figure faults, and suggested the
ideal solution for each.
One thing to remember is that the
weight of material does not increase
corset's power to control. So do not
suffer under a five-pound load, when
few ounces will do. Moreover, you
should have fitting every time you
get a new corset. Your figure con-
stantly changes, and the right corset,
expertly fitted to your figure, will give
you not only good looks but also COM
fort.
Suppose you have the problem of
top-heavy figure. This need not be
cross, with the right choice of founda-
ton garments. Wear a high-flared top
girdle, nipped in at the waist to push
up surplus flesh. Overlap the girdle
with we'll tabled brassiere. fashioned
with large cups set on diaphragm
band. The band will smooth down any
flesh that bulges around the top of the
corset. These two garments will help
you to acquire long, slim hip line
and more spare-ribbed look. They
will also allow greater freedom of
movement than the all-in-one type.
If you have small waistline but
your bust and hips are both amply
curved, your best choice is an all-in-
one garment. Select one with a two
way stretch to control your hips, and
with a brassiere top to support the
bust. Such a garment helps to dis
tribute flesh more equally and, by
adding a little to your waistline. gives
you more balanced proportions.

Cross-E Examination

Ex-District Attorney

NEW YORK, Feb. 21-Former
District Attorney William c. Dodge

ceeded him in off1ce-Thomas E.
Dewey, militant foe of Tammany
Hall.
Testifying as a defense witness
yesterday in the second conspiracy
trial of Tammany District Leader
James j. Hines, Mr.. Dodge shouted
heated denials of Mr.. Dewey's
charges that he was one of three
public officials Influenced or intimi-

Hines is accused of bringing politi-
cal pressure to bear on Mr.. Dodge

One of the witnesses, George
Weinberg, Schultz gangster who
killed himself recently, had teSti-
fled that in 1882 Hines introduced
him to Mr.. Dodge, saying to the
latter:
This is one of Dutch Schultz's
boys. This is where we are getting
our money for our campaign fund"
Asked by Chief Defense Attorney
Lloyd Paul Stryker if such thing
had happened, Mr.. Dodge cried out:
That never happened! I never
saw that man Weinberg in my life.
I never shook hands with him and
no money was passed to Mr.. Hines
by him in my presence in my entire
life"
The last reference was to testi-
mony by Weinberg that he had
handed $4,000 to Hines during the
meeting of the three men.

Warning Against
Dictator Dangers
SO-called Wartime Bill
Declared Dangerous
To u. S. Democracy

LOS ANGELES, Nov. II.
(UP)--Sen. H. Styles Bridges
of New Hampshire today
warned that the way would
be paved toward a socialized
state or dictatorship in the United
States if a bill to draft wealth in
time of war were adopted by con-
gress.
Sen. Bridges, making a tour of
the west in behalf of his aspira-
tions to win the Republican presi-
dental nomination, spoke at Re-
publican breakfast meeting against
a wealth. drafting bill proposed by
Sen. Josh Lee of Oklahoma.
This is the surest way to a ma
tional socialized state or dictator
ship, and the easiest way to end
Democratic and constitutional gov
ernment," Sen. Bridges said.
War, he said, might easily be
used as an excuse by the president
to end the civil liberties of the
people and become dictator, if the
bill passes, "the same as Hitler has
done in Germany"
Sen. Bridges said the Lee Bill
has strong administration pres
sure and he urged his listeners to
use their influence with congress
men and senators to defeat it.

ByL. A. Bandit

LOS ANGELES, Nov. II. CUP)-
Conrad Opperman, 40, said to be a
former st. Louis police officer, was
in critical condition today from a
bullet wound inflicted by a bandit
during a robbery.
The bandit, disguised in womans
clothes, jumped into Oppermans
automobile when he made a boule-
ward stop, showed a gun in his back
and forced Opperman to drive to
an outlying district.
There the bandit apparently de-
liberately shot Opperman, pushed
him out of the automobile and drove
off after taking his wallet.
Opperman was taken to the police
emergency hospital where surgeons
said his condition was very critical
from the bullet wound near the
heart, and his chances of recover
ing were slim.

FIeefness Fails
To Avert Arrest

CAIEXICO, Nov. 17.-Being fleet
of foot and ingenious in the sell
ection of hiding places failed to save
14-year-old Mexican youth from
arrest here Friday on charge of
forgery.
The boy saw Deputy Sheriff Ro-
bert Parrish driving along a CAL
exico street. At the same moment
the officer spotted the youth he
sought on charge of forging and
passing SIS check in Seeley.
The boy raced down the street
and lodged into a theatre Just as
Parrish rounded a corner. 1t was
no trick to find the boy hidden in
a dark section of the theatre as no
show was in progress at that hour.
Parrish said. The boy was taken to
the juvenile home at Imperial pend
ing further investigation in the case.
