Clothes for active living in fast
moving world will come out OF the
West in Al, judging from all signs
at the California fashion futures
displays.
Hollywood designers long ago
learned the trick OF making outfits
to look well in motion-the most
strenuous motion, too, in many a
movie sequence. And Californians,
who probably travel farther on the
average than any other people in
the course of a single days business
or pleasure. have come to demand
what the trade calls 'fuctional
clothes. Certainly they are clothes
Of movement.
At last nights style showings in
the OVERLOOKING Ambassador Hotel
ballroom, more than 70 California
designers took note in various ways
OF this need for clothes in motion.
Lines were flowing. shoulders soft
and roomy, and skirts with pencil
slim silhouette often had pleats for
graceful walking. Speaking OF walk
ing, Bill Joyce, who designed many
OF the shoes in the show. has de
cided ideas about lowered heels for
all but strictly formal occasions.
They're not only. better for
walking and posture, and a fresher
look in general" he said, while
watching the show "but the girls
feet actually look better in them,
if they only knew It."
Stacks, patamas and pantaloons
were shown for every hour OF the
day, and on into evening. Some re
sort wear suits were designed for
double duty. with tailored jackets
covering dinner tops to dresses un-
derneath. A white frost crepe by
Irene Bury was a good example.
What some of us are aiming at

NaZis i'm South

Special Agent to
Make Survey

CIV International News sarvicel
Washington. Feb. II ms
Seriously concerned over what ap
pears to be an organized German
move TO establish Nazi education
al system in central and South
America, the United States govern
ment has sent a special envoy TO
several OF the Central American
republics to investigate the situa-
ton. informed quarters disclosed
today.
The envoy, Audrey V. Cory. a
member of Nelson Rockefeller
office for the coordination Of com
merical and cultural relations be-
tween the American republics, is
now in Mexico.
His mission is not only to in
vestigate the German educational
penetration of the Central Ameri-
can republics, but also to explore
the possibilities OF establishing
American schools with American
teachers in those Republics in or
der to offset the German efforts
TO get hold on the youth OF Latin
America.
A report on the activities OF Nazi
agents in Mexico submitted to the
State Department by Vice Presi-
dent Henry A. Wallace following
his recent visit there is believed to
have an important bearing on the
study Cory now is making in that
country.
Information received by the State
Department shows that German
schools have been established on
a wide scale in numerous Latin
American countries, including
Mexico, Argentine. Brazil. Chile,
Paraguay, Uruguay and Ecuador
In many instances, instructors have
been sent direct from Germany

The schools have such a high
standard Of efficiency and teach

Bedtime Stories
By THORNTON w. BURGESS,

Speaking of the Sparrow family,
| did you see anything of White
throat this spring." asked Jenny
Wren, as she rested for a moment
In the doorway of her new house
and looked down at Peter Rabbit.
Peters face frightened. Il should
say I did, he exclaimed HE
stopped for a few days on his way
north. I only wish he would stay
here all the time But he seems to
think there is no place like the
Great Woods of the North. I could
listen all day to his song. Do you
know what he always seems to be
saying?"
"What?" demanded Jenny Wren.
Il live happily, happily. happ-
lily" replied Peter Il guess he
must. too, because he makes other
people so happy"
Jenny nodded in her usual en-
phatic way. Il don't know him as
we'll as I do some of the others"
said she. but when have seen him
down South he always has appeared
to me to be q perfect gentleman.
He is social, too; he likes to travel
with others"
I've noticed that" said Peter. HE
almost always has company when he
passes through here Some of those
sparrows are so much alike that it
is hard work for me to tell them
apart, but I can always tell White
throat because he is one of the
largest of the tribe and has such
lovely white throat He really is
handsome, with his black and white
cap and that bright yellow spot
before each eye. 1 am told that he
is very dearly loved up North, where
he makes his home. They say he
sings all the time"
Il suppose Scratcher, the Fox
Sparrow, has been along, too," said
Jenny. He also started some time
before we did"
Yes" replied Peter, "he spent
one night in the dear Old Brier
Patch. He is fine looking, too, the
biggest of all the Sparrow tribe
and how he can sing! The only
thing I've got against him is the
color of his coat. 1t always re-
minds me of Reddy Fox and don't
like anything that reminds me of
that fellow. When he visited us, I
discovered something about Scratch
er which I don't believe you know"
"What?" demanded Jenny Wren
rather sharply.
That when he scratches among
the leaves he uses both feet at once. -
cried Peter triumphantly. TT
funny to watch him"
Pooh! I knew that" retorted
Jenny Wrenn. What do you sup
pose my eyes are made for? I
thought you were going to tell me
something I didn't know"
Peter looked disappointed.
