NEA service Stbn correspondent
washington, Feb. 5 - II one Is to
be truly factual about the hosiery
outlook, II boils down to this; There
will be stockings-period.
They will be rayon, and your
choice In colors Is likely to be lin
tied to four shades Of beige. There
may also be limitations as to the
number Of styles turned out. There
will likely be enough to go around
II everyone takes good care Of what
she has.
But certainly there will be no
great choice. And no one will go
into lyrical raptures about the
sheerness Of rayon hosiery = not

Clothing Amendments
WPB has discovered that, even
with present regulations, a good
deal Of material In women's clothes
Is now wasted In hens, and that
many clothes are useless after wash
ing because they were not pre-
shrunk.
So look for further amendments
to present clothing regulations
WPB Is seeking corners to cut In

make them better looking.

Jacket and skirt neither need nor

several artful details are employed

royal and green; or brown with
