Trade Obstacles

Here in Caracus, North Ameri-
can residents and Venezuelan
women alike are begging for
more information on American
clothes and styles.
1t is true that lack of or
ganiZation, high tariffs and OBJ
staeles of trading make prices
exhorbitant in Venezuela. A SO
dress, for example, will cost at
least $50 in Venezuela.
Consequently the rich come TO
the United States two or three
times year for their clothes.
and the average woman who
must stay at home is unable
TO, get nice clothes at a reason
able price.
Organizations are at work to
remedy this condition, but in
the meantime, women would
like to order clothes from our
stores if they could see fashion
booklets and prices. One of the
centers anxious to receive such
information is the Venezuelan
American Center of Cultural
Information in Caracus.

Black Fovor;ie

Venezuelans are beautiful
women. and the feeling they
have for black is not one of
blind following of fashion edicts.
but much more feminine black
than we are accustomed to in
the United States.
Moreover, the caring of
black is associated with the
afternoon and evening The
smartest women for dresSy occa-
sions wear black crepe or chif-
fon combined with something
very sheer. For example, a
black afternoon dress almost
invariably has a black lace or
chiffon yoke. Or it may be a
very sheer black crepe with in
set yoke of black net.
Dressy Hats
IF the dress is of chiffon. ii
will be touched with costume
or real jewelry. and the hat will
be black, too, usually of starched
lace or stiff net, worn off the
face. A flower, bit of white
lace or other trimming accents
the black dress if it isn't
sheer.
Appropos OF black, one sees
many women all through the
town dressed in black from head
10 foot and wonders at the Gus
tom, but this is because of the
period of mourning here, which
is two years. and after that
time often becomes a habit.
During the day. having tea in
the patio, tennis or country club.
or shopping about town, light
dresses and sports clothes are
worn. Notwithstanding the
warm weather. however, fur
scarfs and fur jackets are worn
for late afternoon and evening.
Daytime clothes will suffice
for all occasions unless one is
invited to something formal at
the American embassy or coun-
try club parties.

BY the Associated Press.
BERN, Switzerland, Dec. 19.-The
Scandinavian correspondent of the
Berner Tagwacht reported today
growing friction between Norwegian
bishops and the German-backed
government of Vidkun Quisling.
Bishop Fivind Berggrav of Oslo
leader of the churchmen and known
as a democrat and progressive, has
refused to permit the National Luth-
eran Church to participate in Quis-
ling politics and he has refused to
attend meetings of the Parliament
since the German occupation.
He also has rejected efforts to
have the church call for a holy
war" against Russia and as result
was denounced by the controlled
press.
He wrote to ministers, instructing
them to cancel collective prayer
after the Quisling government sub
stituted for the prayer mentioning
the King, Parliament and govern
ment another calling for obedience
to the chief of state
The correspondents also reported
