Washington
Wears

On vacation at Hot Springs,
Mrs. Walter White looked very
pretty last Sunday on her way to
church. Her dark eyes and strik-
ing, prematurely gray hair made
her soutache-trimmed green suit
very effective and her flower be-
decked tiny hat was the perfect
finishing touch.
Mrs. Brooks Walter, from Ar
lington, Va, whose husband is 4
major in the Army, appeared at
dinner in one Of the few short
evening dresses seen at Hot
Springs. Hers was Of black mar
quisette. She wears her hair in
q high pompadour with q low roll
turned under in the back page
boy effect. She tucks three huge
roses In her hair when she wears
her short dinner dress.
Sonora de Chavez, wife of the
Minister Counselor Of Peru, =
most attractive, vivacious person,
lunched at the Casino wearing a
smart print dress. At dinner
later her charming cousin was
very chic in dull black and
cleaning jewels.
Cleverness Is its own reward.
70 Mrs. Sydney K. Bradley de-
serves all the compliments she re-
ceives on her earrings which she
designed herself. She admits
she graces 4-year-old Germaine
Monteil black dinner suit with
bright red feather earrings Sc
cured by rhinestone clips. They
almost cover her ears. She is
the envy Of all her friends for
her artistic ability as we'll as her
smart appearance.
Service uniforms were designed
to make all women look alike.
but 1t is amazing how some Of
the girls have the ability to wear
a uniform with the same flair
which once upon a time set of q
smart ensemble. Miss Mona
Baldwin, a lovely, slim blond,
turns all eyes in her WAVE uni
form. Mrs. Virginia Whipple,
whose home is in Vermont, sta
TONED in Washington with the
Coast Guard, has that perfect
carriage, straight shoulders and
red gold hair which sets her white
uniform of to advantage. The
a1rlines also are clever in their
uniform design. TWA has adopt
ed a neat gray-blue gabardine
which all their girls love. The
silver wings on the pocket is the
only Identification of uniform.
With the removal OF the wings
the uniform looks like any we'll
tailored town suit. Miss Lorraine
Murphy, who has been working
the graveyard SHIFT" can leave
her office for breakfast or a shop
ping trip and feel perfectly well
dressed for town.
Miss Camilla Motijcik, who has
studied fashion design, creates
the most interesting clothes for
herself. The Chinese motif is
very becoming to her slim figure,
dark hair and clear, camellia- like
skin. She likes beautiful fab
RIGS and can seldom resist deep,
warm yellows and marine blues
to make up into various cos
tunes. One Of her cleverest is a
tunic Of a rich, Persian design
fabric lined with yellow which
buttons to the neck with many
tiny buttons. This may be worn
with q short or long, straight
skirt for evening and is equally
as attractive for dinner at home
over red or blue trousers.

EDEN PLEDGES
ROME BOMBING
British to Do So If Military
Requirements Make It
Compulsory

London, Jan. 20-(Up)-F'oreign
Secretary Anthony Eden repeated
today Prime Minister Winston
Churchill's pledge that Rome would
be bombed II nl!nitary requirements
made it necessity.
Charles G. Ammon, labor, voicing
an increasingly insiStent demand
that Rome as well as Berlin be
bombed, in an effort to hasten the
knockout Of groggy Italy, asked
commons II Rome were considered
an open city.
Eden, as leader Of the House, re-
piled:
II agree with the Prime Minister
that we have as much right to bomb
Rome as the Italians had to bomb
London. We shall not hesitate to do
so to the best Of our ability and as
heavily as possible II the course Of
the war should render such bomb
ing convenient and helpful"
Benito Mussolini, in his role Of
jackal to Adolf Hitler, had sent a
force Of bomber planes to occupied
France during the BATHS Of Britain
In the fall Of 1910, when Germany
hoyed to knock out the Royal Air
Force and London in preparation
for an invasion Of Britain.
Ammon asked Eden II there We're
any information whether there was
still military camp on the out
skirts Of Rome. whether there were
still armament factories within the
city or close to 1t, and whether
Rome was now railroad center
used for military purposes.
Eden said that there was mil
itary camp and that there were still
war factor. in or around Rome.
To the third part OF the question he
said that Rome lay on the main
railroad from northern to southern
Italy. 1t Is along this railroad that
supplies and reinforcements are
being sent southwark to sicily for
Africa.
Eden did not reply to a question
by G. A. Griffiths, labor, whether
it was more difficult to get to Rome
than 1t was to get to Berlin.
ct Is 500 miles from British air
bases to Berlin. Rome is 875 miles
from the nearest Great Britain
bases. But the British Eighth Army,
advancing through Lbya, Is SIS
miles away. When Tripod Is taken,
with its great Castel Benito Air
base, Rome will Ess only 625 miles
away. Malta is $50 miles from Rome,
and it Is only 400 miles from the
area where the Allies in northwest
Africa are rapidly developing bases
for heavy bombing planes.)
Comdr. Sir Archibald Southby,
Conservative, asked Eden to i'm
press cabinet members with the ne
cessity Of vigorously prosecuting
the war by bombing Rome.
Eden replied that Southby must
surely be aware that this is a com.
pletely united cabinet on all points. "

~
United Press STAN Correspondent
+ Algiera, Jan. 40 --(Up)-- Marcel
Peyrout6n's appointment as COVER
f1or-general Of Algeria was followed
today by reports that Gen. Henri
Honore 0iraud and Gen. Charles De
Gaulle now saw eye to eye and were
working together to unity all French
elements.
Peyrouton succeeded Yves Chatel,
who, II was announced, ''has been
called to other duties" Probably
Chatel was completely out Of the
North African political picture, be.
cause he was disliked by elements
controlling the situation and consid-
cred incompetent.
It was understood that Peyrou-
toms appointment was made with
the blessing Of the Allies and De
Gaullists, although he formerly was
minister Of interior In the Vichy
cabinet, and more recently Vichy'S
ambassador TO Argentina. His record
was considered somewhat Spotty, but
he resigned as ambassador to Ar
gentina the day Pierre Laval became
NaN dictator Of metropolitan
France, and that was considered
clear.cut Allied act.
He was secretary general Of the
Algerian government in 1880, and
later French resident general and
high commissioner Of Morocco and
French resident general Of Tunisia
Although other changes seemed
certain, It seemed unlikely that
Pierre Boisson would DO replaced
as governor OF French West Africa,
or Auguste Nogues as governor Of
French Morocco.
Can italian dispatch broadcast by
Radio Rome said President Roose-
welt was sending Robert Samuel Re-
Der, state department executive who
negotiated with Vichy of1cials at
Martinique, to North African
The appointment Of Peyroutol
was accepted by American authors
ties only after 1t had been repre-
sented as vital to the military cam
paign in North Africa, 1t was
learned today in Washington, D. G.
Gen. Henri Honore 0Araud. high
commissioner Of North Africa, In
sisted upon bringing Peyrouton in
to his organization and 0iraud's
recommendation was approved by
Lieut. Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower
Allied commander -ir. chief.
Eisenhower backed Giraud's judy
ulent against the advice Of the
state Department, which acquiesced
only, on the grounds Of military
necessity.
The state Departments view was
that the inclusion Of another Vichy
man II the North African admins
tratiye organization would add To
the turmoil Of French politics IN
North Africa.
The state Departments policy
however, has been to regard the
North African situation as primarily
military. Eisenhower's approval d
Peyrouton, therefore, was accepted
on military grounds and with COM
plete confidence that Eisenhower
knew what he was doing and had
good reasons for his action.
Peyrouton Is opposed by the
Fighting French organization head
ed by Gen Charles de Gaulle. His
elevation to position OF authority
in North Africa may diminish the
chances Of an accord between
Giraud and de Gaulle.
