Today I'm going to quote to
you letter have just received,
which speaks for itself. The
writer prefers not to have his
name used-because he says, his
War-Working neighbors might
gang up on him! But from
what he told me. when I talked
to him to get permission TO pub
lish his letter. he has mighty
good grounds tor the stand he
has taken.
The children Of mothers off
doing war work" haunt his door
step, hungry and lonely; they
worm their way into his home,
ard spend hours turning it
topsy- turvy; they interrupt his
own youngsters while they are
doing their homework; they
bring with them coughs, colds,
and the possibility of other con-
tagious diseases. Their mothers
are absent from home, too oc-
cupied with outside matters to
pay attention to the poor mites
they have so "patriotically'
abandoned.
So, our correspondent has
voiced his distress at the picture
of the home today. And there is
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1943-01-10

Job to be done right at home. The
war plant is not the only place
where we are building the things
for the defense of our country.
The building of the bodies of our
children is just as essential.
'It is pointed out that mothers
with children who are doing war
jobs have in most cases employed
some one, or asked a friend, to
care for their children, but no
one, no matter how wonderful
they may be or how hard they
may try, can take the place of
the mother.
so it would seem to me that the
greatest work can be done by the
mother of today right in her own
home looking after the diet and
preparing new menus, not only
for the children, but for the fam
lily as a whole, especially when
there is rationing of this and
that and talk of more rationing.
TOO many children are being
neglected and too many mothers
are using the present emergency
just as an excuse to get away
from the youngsters. and, to be
frank, shirk the duties of the
home.
THE first duties of your coun-
try can be found right at your
own doorstep and there can be
no greater job, patriotic or other
wise, than that of raising a good
healthy family. We parents are
the present, but our children are
the future Americans, and a
create responsibility will rest on
their shoulders as they grow to
be men and women, for it will be
up to them to carry on where We
leave off. With the help of God
and fine upbringing they will not
make the same mistakes as We
have in the past.
Il do not criticise the mother
who must work to keep her little
family together either because OF
the small salary of the husband,
or for any other good reason. On
the contrary, I wish to sing a
song of high praise for her, but
I feel where this may be true in
one case, there are 10 cases
where this financial support is
not necessary.
There are many poor and
weak excuses given for this stu
alton, but remember, when you
are devoting your time to your
family and especially your chill
dren, you are building a greater
America for tomorrow. WHAT
is MORE IMPORTANT THAN
THIS?"

LONDON, Jan. 9.-One impor-
tant result OF clothes ratlonlng
and utility" styles, is that any
Woman-if she uses her coupons
well-can look smart on very
little money.
I recently visited a show Of
spring and summer fashions, Or
ganized by Percy Trilnick. All
these will be on sale in the shops
in February at prices ranging
from 81 to $40 and in coloring
and style they are any Woman's
dream.
One feature of the show was
a new material, reminiscent
sometimes of thin WOODEN,
sometimes of thick linen. Called
Bahama sand" it is made, I
was told, of AL sorts of bits and
: pieces, including wood shavlngs
and odd scraps of rubber 1t
dyes we'll and is turned out in a
number of exquisite colorings and
attractive patterns.
One frock of this material, with
a linen-like finish was in flow
cred pattern, with flared skirt
and blouse buttoning up the
front and finished with a white
pique collar. Another example
of this fiber material, said to
be the nearest approach to wool.
was in plain, dull gold, very SIM
ply made, with narrow belt and
buttoned-up front. Other frocks
of this material were in both
large and small checks.
Most of these summer frocks
have short, rather full skirts,
sometimes with wide pleats in
front, but more often fared.
They have neat necklines with
narrow, turn-back collars and
usually button up the front.
Some have little basques and
many are finished with white
collars.
The cottons are all in gay col
ors and cost only between 81 and
$40. All have elbow-length
sleeves and narrow belts of their
own material, tying in a bow
either at back or front. Many
have patch pockets or else the
slit variety into which you can
plunge your hands. An example
in blue and white stripes had the
stripes vertical in the top half of
the skirt and horizontal in the
lower half. Another had a green
white-spotted top and red
white-spotted skirt, with huge
patch pockets. A navy blue
rayon frock had . pale green

rs it really necessary that so
many mothers of today devote
their time to what they call

must those who make the claim
Of being patriotic women feel it
their duty to do war work, while
their poor children are showed

True, many OF these emer-

done. We do not question this.
But it seems to me there should
be enough volunteer workers,
other than mothers with chill
dren, to carry on the jobs. The
same is true for the defense tasks
they, too. can be filled by
others.
Il do not question the need Of
these volunteer groups or the
need for more defense workers,

Our APPEARANCE

does seem to be a great deal OF
fabric in the long, slender swoop
OF these dresses, but actually the
styles are slim and the new, &C
cented midriff is not only tram
sition away from the girdle
waistline of the past years, but
also provides an opportunity for
skillful and deceptive handling of
material.
Even though he is restricted
by regulations on fabric, trim
ming and amount of yardage to
be used, the American designer
is continuing to do amazing and
inventive things this year. Sur
face decoration, destined to be
one of the saving graces" for
simple clothes, fits nicely into the
picture. For example, formal
gowns Of crepe may have white
bead embroidery to mark the
uplifted bustline. The use of
contrasting fabrics and colors, a
conservation measure, also finds
its place In the inset panel Of
color which distinguishes many
of the dinner and evening gowns
OF this type.
Young fashions, too, will take
to the Empire silhouettes, for it's
perfect for youthful figures with
its high bosom effect and So
phisticated long sweep Of skirt.
Watch for solid-toned crepe
gowns with bodices Of empire
striped taf1eta. And there should
be forthcoming appropriate jew
elry to set of pretty square neck
lines and short pulled sleeves.
In a year when women are
more interested than ever in
feminine, flattering clothes made
on good lines, this looks like one
OF the best of the new trends.
However, 1T will be interpreted
in great many ways, for each
American designer, completely
unregimented despite restrictions,
will give his own personality"
to an accepted silhouette. More
than likely it will extend to coats
and intimate apparel, as we'll as
dresses, hats and jewelry. At any
rate, the slightly formal" as
pect of the silhouette will call
for important looking" hats and
other accessories.

Washington
Is Weariing.-

Now that this baby known as
1943 is well established, it be-
comes evident that she will be
a clothes conscious individual.
Very probably this year will make
fashion history Certainly it
will mean innumerable changes
in availability of clothes and in
the assembling of wardrobes.
Nevertheless, good grooming, ap-
propriateness and an air of SIM
plified chic will distinguish the
months ahead, and the smartly
dressed ladies Of Washington will
continue to make fashion news
in the future, as they've done in
the past. Last week, for example,
proved it.
Mrs. Hiram Bingham wears an
afternoon frock of copper-colored
lame that IS strikingly becoming
to her dark eyes and hair. :. Her
pretty daughter Kitty Hill, whose
engagement has just been an
nounced, has a smart tailored
dress of sheer violet wool. SHINY
belted. Kitty's ring, incidentally,
is unusually lovely. It's a copy
Of the larger one her fance
wears, and is made of heavy
ropes of platinum, twisted about
a big center diamond. Mrs.
Donald Shepherd also likes lame
for evening; her choice New Year
eve was beautifully cut gown
with a dropped-shoulder effect,
in silver and blue.
Mrs. Lionel Atwill wore to din
ner the other evening a frock Of
flame red, embellished with little
curled ostrich fronds across the
front of the square neckline.
Mary Thrasher, wife of the dash
ing Marine Corps colonel, looked
fragile and feminine in a float
ing evening gown of chiffon, in
softly blending shades of rose
and mauve, with a huge bunch Of
flowers in the same tones tucked
at the waist. j.. Young and love-
~ Mrs. Lucien Hilmer was
glimpsed wearing a smart dinner
frock of black velvet, with ermine
revers setting off the short
jacket.

Watch That New Empire Line!
Coming Silhouette Revouonise Our Abbearance

What with Napoleon and Rus
STA and certain comparisons
popping up in all the news
analysts comments these days,
what do you suppose has hap
pened in the fashion world? Ex-
actly. The newest spring clothes
have as their inspiration the
flowing dresses of Nine. Recamier
and the Empress Josephine.
There is, however, more reason
for this style trend than the
course of history. though FASH
ions do follow world events close
ly. When Hitler marched into
Russia and every ones eyes were
turned in that direction, 1t was
natural that designers should
give thought to gowns worn in
the time of Napoleon. Best OF
all, they found that the lines OF
clothes OF the period known as
the First Empire (1804-1815) were
"naturals" for fabric conserva-
ton! The short waist, short
pulled sleeves and flowing drapery
or long, uninterrupted line start
ing just below the bust, have,
therefore, been transformed into
the day and evening fashions
that you will be seeing before
long.

and an off white one, with
slightly pouched back and big
patch pockets. Most coats had
narrow belts of the same ma
terial, tied in front.
Jackets of suits still have high
revers and narrow belts; skirts
are short, and often have pleated
fronts.
Perhaps the loveliest frock of
all was in printed WOOL of
charming paisley pattern in blues
and reds and greens, buttoning
down the back with red buttons
and finished off with a red suede
belt, edged with green.

Boy, Is, Kills
Brother-in-Law
PIunses Knife
into His heort

IONA, Mich. Feb. 4 Up
A 15-year-old boy stabbed his
40-year-old brother in law to
death in a scuffle yesterday.
Sheriff Leslie Murphy said
that the boy, Russell Utter, ad-
mitted stabbing the man, Clyde
Laycock, with a hunting knife
in an argument over operation
of an oil stove.
The boy, Murphy said, told of
starting to make pancakes on
the stove in the home of his
parents, Mr.. and Mrs. Vern Ut
ter. He was having trouble with
the fire. AT that moment Lay
cock returned from work at a
factory.
Murphy said the boy related
that Laycock ordered him away
from the stove but he refused
and was then struck by Lay
cock. Russell then picked up an
eight inch hunting knife from
the table and stabbed his broth
err in law, Murphy said. The
knife pierced Laycock's heart
and he died instantly.
Other members of the family,
including the parents and Mrs.
Laycock. were elsewhere in the
house at the time. Russell was
held for action by the Juvenile
Court.

The two men rescued were

Both were weakened by their

reported recuperating.
The other two passengers were

neer and general superintendent
for Morrison Knudsen Company,
which operated the plane, and
Dewey Metzdorf, Anchorage no.

SEARCH-PARTY
A party was to go into the
wilds today in search of them
and in hope of finding some clue
to Gillian, who headed south
ward in search of aid five days
after the crash.
The two rescued men said
Gebo and Metzdorf were in poor
condition, weakened and with
frost bitten feet, when they left
them nine days ago. The men
survived on provisions in the

nations entire shipbuilding and
aircraft industries for 81 days.
If both fatal and non-fatal ac-
cidents to workers were includ-
ed, the council said, the loss OF
time, material and damaged ma
chinery would be sufficient to
have built $4,000 heavy bomb
ers.
Bright spot of the survey,
however, was the eight per cent
decline in the all-accident toll as
compared with 194l, resulting in
a saving of $500 lives. The
traffic category made the larg-
est contribution to the improve
ment, 1942's motor vehicle
deaths totaling 27,8O0, down 80
per cent, or 1920 from the all
time high of 10000 in 1941.
The industrial accident toll in
this first full war year went up
three per cent. But non-agri-
cultural employment during the
period rose seven per cent.
The councils figures showed a
total of 47,500 workers were
killed by accidents in 1912
1880 on the job and $4,000 off
the job. Non-fatal injuries to
workers came to 100000, Of
which some 1,750,000 were
caused by occupational acct
dents.
In the overall accident pic
ture, the death rate of 69.4 per
hundred thousand population
was the lowest since 1922, when
the rate was the same. Only once
in the last AZ years has the rate
been lower, in 1921, when 1t
was 68,3 per hundred thousand.
The injury total of 100000
was about the same as the prev
ious year. The estimated econ
omic loss of $500, 100000 from
1912 accidents covered both fat
al and non-fatal classes.
Deaths from burns totaled g.
900, an increase of II per cent
over 1941, and in this connection
the council listed the Boston
Night club fire, which took 488
lives, as the major disaster of the
year. Among others were two
coal mine explosions in West
Virginia and Colorado, with re-
spective death tolls of Sc and 81;
an Illinois ordnance plant explo-
sion which killed Sd; the acct
dental fatal food poisoning Of
some so persons in an Oregon
institution; tornadoes which took
a toll of Ill in seven Southern
and Midwestern states in March.
and of more than 100 in Okla
homa later in the Spring.
The 1912 traffic toll was the
lowest since 1927, when il was
$4,000. The decrease in high
way deaths was widely spread
and nine states showed reduc-
tons compared with l941 ex-
ceeding 40 per cent.
Notwithstanding gasoline ra-
tioning, the North Atlantic re-
gion finished the year with the
smallest fatality reduction OF
any geographic area.
The tab by areas, with per-
ventage reductions: North At
lantic "a; South Atlantic "a;
North Central 33; South Central
81; Mountain 20, and Pacific %.
Toledo led the large city death
reductions with a AZ per cent
drop. Columbus, o., was next
with AZ per cent reduction and
Los Angeles third with 38 per
cent.
Fifty-four cities Of 10000 or
more population completed 1912
without a fatal motor vehicle
traffic accident. The largest was
Poughkeepsie, N. Y, population
40, 500. Second largest was
Quincy, Ill.,, with nearly the
same population. Baton Rouge,
La, was third with population
