Garment Bags Made
From Odds and Ends
By RUTH WYETH SPEARS

0DEAR MRS. SPEARS: l
- thought you might be inter-
ested in how / made garment bags
for each member of my family,
almost entirely from things had
on hand. The foundation part Of
each was made Of 1s-inch board;
"a screw-eye; a hook from hang
er; and five small screw hooks
underneath. For the bag, I COM
bined muslin flour sacks with odds
and ends of figured cottons and
trimmed the Jennings with bias

tape. I followed your directions in
SEWING Book 2, for initials of
bias tape to mark the bags"
At the upper left is sketched
the foundation that this reader
used. If a upper is used for the
opening, the 36-inch length is best.
If you put it in a curved line, you
viii have a wider opening. Each
step in applying the Upper in this
way is shown here.
NOTE: The Sewing Basket in
every thrifty household should
contain a copy of Mrs. Spears
Sewing Book 2, in which she il
lustrates the five standard meth
DDS Of repairing all kinds of fab
RIGS. Thirty-two pages to delight
every lover Of fine handwork. To
get your copy send 10 cents in coin

shirts and his camps, his blue eyes
saw red.
Another reason was the LaFol-
lette civil liberties committee, which
had been accusing industrialists Of
employing spies to prevent their
employees from organizing. To pro-
vide an offsetting influence, many
congressman thought somebody
should investigate subversive infiu-
ences.
Finally, there was the Dies mania
for publicity. It's rumored that he
called off an important hearing last
autumn because the world series
was monopolizing the headlines.
And he's not ashamed to admit it:
1.-THE good that this committee does
depends on how many people read
tine testimony in newspapers. Who
in the world is going to bother
about the official record?"
Paying S. day and travelling ex-
penses for each witness eats up a
SIS, 1000 appropriation like cat laps
up milk. Which is one reason the
Glacier County chief. [volume] (Browning, Mont.) 1931-1940, 1940-01-12

involved the advertising of set of
reference books selling for several
hundred dollars a set, and direct
ing a sales force of 80 statesmen to
follow up the written requests for
booklets describing the set. Many
of these inquiries came from chill
dren who could not buy and were
therefore a constant cause of an
noyance and wasted effort.
In the midst of his scoffing at the
restaurant advertisement that car
ried no telephone number, he sud-
denly realized that his own adver-
tisements, circulars and letters did
not feature the telephone number Of
his own local office. It was i'm
mediately added to his advertising.
He discovered that telephone in
quiries about the reference books
came only from interested people
and resulted in a high percentage
of sales. He also found that al
though children may write for book
lets they do not telephone for them.
A cause of wasted effort and ex-
pense was thus eliminated by fea-
turing the telephone number.

interesting and appealing story that
properly told would increase sales.
Routine often keeps the very men

1t has been frequently observed
that newspaper men and novelists

routine things become novel and

Word Cigar Derived
From Spanish Garden

How did the words cigar and Gig
arctic get into the language? It
seems to be another old Spanish
custom.
When tobacco was still a novelty
the acme of hospitality was for a
host to offer guests small rolls of
homegrown tobacco for smoking,
usually with the explanation "Es
de mi cigarral' lit is from my
garden). The word "cigarral'
means an orchard or fruit garden.
Strangers to the Spanish language
came to regard the word ''cigarral"
as describing the gift rather than
its place Of origin. The word was
soon shortened to "cigarro'' and
finally to the English Cigar" The
word cigarette means, literally. .

Martin Dies Grows in u. S. Esteem
As Ism Investigation Bears Fruit
NO MORE i.
BY HOWARD LANCASTER

BY HOWARD LANCASTER
released by Western Newspaper Union.)
vX/ASHINGTON.-'The only
w thing that counts in these
investigations is what gets into
the papers"
That was Martin Dies credo
the moment he opened the first
hearing before his congression-
al committee investigating un-
American activities and propa-
ganda.
Within a few weeks most of
the nation was laughing at
him. Strip-Teaser Gypsy Rose Lee
offered to bare all for the commit
tee, and little Shirley Temple was
labeled a Communist decoy by one
Of Mr.. Dies witnesses.
1t seems strange, therefore, that
much Of America is laughing on the
other side of its face today. There
are still plenty of people who think
the committees early Investigations
were farce land Dies admits he
got few crackpot witnesses), but
a peculiar combination of circum-
stances has placed the un-Ameri-
canism committee front and center
on the Washington stage.
This month, having submitted a
report on its second years investi-
CATION, the committee is asking con-
gress for a new appropriation.
Here's why it happened:
First, you have the correct COM
bination Of men and times. Dies is
the 38-year-old Texan with heavy
hands and yellow hair whose sole
claim to fame after seven lean years
In congress was his penchant for
speech-making and a hatred for
'isms."
Two other men instrumental in this
affair were New York's Nazi-hating
Rep. Samuel Dickstein and Vice Pres
ident Jack Garner. Dickstein used
to have a habit Of batting Hitler
from the house floor and reading
long lists of citizens whom he &C.
cused of being Nazis. His fellow
Jews thought he was doing the race
more harm than good, and the house
didn't like to be embarrassed. So
the rules committee (of which Dies
