Household Hints
Fashions For Factories Combine Smart Styles With Real Utility
BY MARGUERITE YOUNG
(NEA Service stan Writer


 New York = Cotton work styles including the first clothes to be designed -to-order for a large group of women in war production and actually worn by them at their lattes and benches and assembly lines, are causing quite a flutter in fashions douecote.
 Big news in tbese originals: they both look well and work right.
 Outstanding number: coverall. made all in one for speed, comfort and safety, but shaped and trimmed like Hollywood slacks and shirt. These are about to be donned by 18,000 fashion-wise girl workers of the Sperry Gyroscope Company of Long Island.
 Designer Vera Maxwell, who made the models to specifications of the girls themselves and the company's safety engineers, calls the job "a marvellous experiment. one of the toughest and one of the most interesting ever tackled"
 Outstanding specifications from the girls: legs Hong enough to cover and still show o,ir ankles: material that wouldn't soil too quickly but would have more bloom than Navy blue; no hip pockets because those make you look broader: a snug tclt for slirn- ness; and collar narrowed in back to be out of the way of coat and hair covering.
 Tn half doJn meetings with spokesman for the girls, the de- signer got their ideas about how the coverall should look. Then she took a turn herself at the chief ma chimes to see how the models should function. Next she consulted the company's safety engineers on fine points of working hazards the suit had to help overcome. Samples now are being given workout.
 To Miss Maxwell's knowledge, this is the first time designer has worked directly with the prospec- tive wearer in designing a working costume. It's the way the legendary Paris style originator worked with his made -to-order customer.
 WAR FASHIONS ON PARADE
 This number and others showing what "ehy're" wearing in we'll dressed. war plants were paraded recently in Madison Square Gar den, just as pre-war garments that they" were wearing at the races and resorts used to be exhibited for fashion scouts.
 At least one important fashion authority predicts a long time ef- feet of the new work styles. Miss Virginia Jewell, stylist for the cot ton industry, believes the combined functionalism or purposefulness, and appearance appeal of the clothes will be reflected in rzw working clothes for housewives as we'll as industrial women.
 Before the housewife discards the work clothes which she has on hand" says Miss Jewell, she'll dis cover this new kind. And watch her go for them. Not trousers, probably, but clothes, perhaps cu- lottes, perhaps dresses. with new and special advantages"

When Irene got home from the airplane factory she was good and tired. This was the hour. after work and before dinner. that she always looked forward to. Her private name for it was "My sissy hour" Into it, these days, she packed all the lazy, luxurious little things she loved-things that used to take up a lot more than an hour of her peace-tirne days.
 She sat down at the little desk fin her room. You could tell quite q lot about Irene from that desk. The water-glass filled with the small bouquet of flowers she sometimes bought on the way home. The paper-weight of pink marble. The thin, crackly blue air-mail stationery. And the big,

 If the blondes and red-heads don't squech that kind of propaganda right now, they are likely to find themselves pushed into the background while the brunettes grab the jobs.
 HOW TO SQUELCH THE IDEA
 It wouldn't even be surprising if men, reading that brunettes are more stable than their lighter-hared sisters would reason that they would make better wives After all if they last longer at business job it would be only natural to suppose they would also last longer at the job of home-making
 So you see, it is up to the blondes to put stop to such pro-brunette propaganda.
 The long, hard way of doing it would be for the blondes and red-heads to make conscious effort to o,lt-sit their brown -haired sisters at any one ob

have co-operated to produce other new work styles for farflung fac- tories. Many new costumes are adaptations Of patterns developed by the U. s. Departments of Agri- culture and Labor.
 At the Todd Shipyards in Brook lyn, a stylish work suit is now be- ing worked out. Welders and other heavy-work girls are wearing a heavy workman's denim overall too narrow of bib, they say. and too broad of hip. Mrs. Fillmore Herrick, personnel director has taken on the task of having a real "job" made for tEJ5m.
 HEADGEAR Is FLATTERING
 Headgear is a vital new item of most plants preferred costume be- cause a complete coverup is re- quired wherever thers's moving ma chinery. International Harvester girls wear a cap with a conical top of black, shiny buckram which shields the pate prettily yet venti- lates for hair health. This has a blue cloth visor and headband, with eyelet ventilators above the temples. Similar in shape; white buckram number. Most of the headpieces are of heavy cotton materials for washability, are flat for easy iron ing.
 Women in several munitions plants wear a coverall designed to combat the health hazard of pow der-laden air. This suit must be Iaundered daily, therefore it's made of unbleached muslin. But this is a pretty becoming cream color. and the suit is decorated with flashing red stitching and four red plastic buttons in front.
 Allis-Chalmers girls at bench jobs, like electrical assembly in Mil waukee. wear a tan jumperculotte over a brightly striped cotton jer- sey. The jumper has shoulders

Treat Yourself To An
inexpensive Dinner

When one speaks of a "treat"
we usually are flooded with ideas
of quite expensive dishes-possi-
bly, a broi1ed lobster, or a choice
bit of fillet mignon smothered
with mushrooms-but never let it
be said that you can't treat your
self to an inexpensive dish. be
cause such dishes as this one of
beef can be anyone's treat and a
very special one at that:
SAVORY BEEF
2 pounds beef, plate, shank,
rump or round
3 large onions, sliced
3 tablespoons flour
l teaspoon salt
Il teaspoon black pepper
4 teaspoon ground cloves and
thyme
1 pint brown stock or boiling
water and meat extract
1 tablespoon eatsup
2 tablespoons vinegar
Brown the onions slowly in the
fat Increase the heat. Cut meat
into slices desired for serving, add
it to the onions and brown. Mix
the -four and the dry seasonings.
Sprinkle this mixture over the
meat. Add the stock, vinegar and
catsup. Cover closely. Simmer
until meat IS tender. allowing at
least two hours for shank or
plate and one and one-half hours
for rump or round.

Interesting a meal as On any other

women, however, who can make
their Friday dinners an occasion

KANSAS CITY, June 10-The
Donnelly Garment Co. and the DON
nelly Garment Workers Union filed
a civil action in Federal District
Court yesterday asking $40 900 DAM
ages from the international Ladies
Garment Workers Union.
In their action the plaintiffs
alleged the international union on
July l. 1887. entered into con-
spiracy to unlaWfully Destroy injure
and deprive the plaintiff of its GUS
toners" by conducting secondary
boycotts, threatening patrons with
boycotts and pickets, and making
fraudulent statements to buyers OF
Donnelly garments.
In May the international union filed
q bill of complaint in Federal court
asking slO4305 from the Donnelly
Co. as the unions expenses in legal
proceedings between the company
and the union-proceedingS which
grew out of the unions efforts to
organize the Donnelly workers.
In it's action yesterday the COM
pany contended it was forced to
bring the original injunction action
to protect its business.
The company asked 100000 ac-
tual and 100000 punitive damages,
and Donnelly union $4,000 actual
and $4,000 punitive.
