NEW YORK How 10 give
one navy blue Suit nine new
lives as smart as any tha'
your favorite screen star wears
lis something you can lcarr
from Hollywood. Because stud
iO-made clothes are not tossed
aside after one picture is made
bat are used again and again
designers must whip up plenty
of DISCUSSES. so that they never
smack of the hand-me down for
any actress who wears them.
Especially clever at this busi-
ness is Edith Head. studio top
notcher, who designed Ginger
Rogers tailored suits for Lady
in the Dark Since then, Miss
Head has thought up various
DISCUSSES for these suits. and
passes a flock OF tricks on 10
you so that you can fool your
audience into believing that you
have not one-but nine-Smart
outfits.
For your first conversion
trick, invest in two matching
scarVes-either cotton squares
Of the bandana type or hand
some print silk neckerchiefs
Fold one scarf triangular-Wise
and tie it around your neck like
a halter, knotting il in the back
Fold the second scarf the same
way as the first, and tie il
around your neck so that front
ends hang under your chin cow
boy fashion.
When you get tired OF this
disguise take one of the scarves
and sew it along the bias fold TO
the inside of your jacket collar.
Bring ends together at the neck
line in front, and confine them
in a napkin ring, painted with
nail enamel;
AS a third disguise for a gala
date, rip off the scarf, and wear
baby choker Of artificial VIC
lets, tackled close together on a
neck -hugging band of purple
fabric. II there are any violets
left over from making your
neckpiece, stick these in your
hair.
For less festive occasions run
up five or six jade green rosettes
out of grosgrain ribbon about
one inch wide. Tack two tabs Of
ribbon on each rosette-like a
blue ribbon award-and pin
these on in row to conform to
the slanting line Of one revere.

States Study
Vote Problems
Soldier Franchise
Measure Eyed

Most of the governors OF the
48 states are still looking into
the questions put 10 them by
President Roosevelt in connec-
ton with the proposed use of
federal ballots by the armed
forces this year, but three state
executives have advised the
White House their state laws
will permit use OF such ballots
and more than twice that many
have reported they felt justified
in promising that validating ac-
ton will be taken.
A number contacted in an
Associated Press survey indicat-
ed they felt the questions raised
were not of first importance IN
their states in view of state alb
sentee voting laws which they
considered adequate to meet the
wartime election situation.
Mr.. Roosevelt now has on his
desk the compromise service
vote bill which the House and
Senate finally approved after a
give-and-take conference which
produced a plan for use of fed
eral ballots where state absen-
tee ballots were not received
continent upon state acceptance
of such ballots.
Prior to acting on the meas
ure, the President has asked the
governors TO advise him whether
the federal ballot procedure out
lined in the bill is authorized by
their state laws, and if not
whether steps will be taken in
time to make the procedure legal
for the November general cleo
tons.
California, Maryland an
Kansas have advised their state
laws will permit use of the fed
eral ballot, and the governors
of Rhode Island, New Hamp-
shire, Connecticut, Nebraska,
Vermont, Indiana and New
Mexico replied they believed
that any action needed to vail
date the plan would be taken.
In Delaware, a special legisla-
tive session has been called on
the subject, and Gov. Leverett
Saltonstall of Massachusetts said
he would call the Bay State
legislators to advance state pri-
mary dates to permit use of abb
sentee ballots by service person
mel.

In our opinion, if the peace that
follows the war is going to be
lasting there has got to be in
Guided in the terms of its settle
ment some measure of relaxa-
ton in the matter of trade restric-
tons and monopoly on natural re-
sources. We do not believe that
a stable peace is going to be
built upon a premise that permits
one group of people a decided
economic advantage over another
group. Our reason for thinking
this is that new spirit has come
into the people of the earth, that
is, many of them. There still
remains portion Of the earth's
population which has no concern
for better living. They are con-
tent to live in the same prim-
tive way that they have always
lived. They know nothing of the
more abundant life further re-
moved from poverty, and, conse-
quently have no interest in it.
But there are other people who
do have desire to improve their
condition and to grow, and de.
velop, and enlarge, their sphere

genius has created these indus
tries have in many instances
learned the problem of develop
ing small town industry the hard
way. 1t is no longer an expert
ment with them. They know what
they are about. We are prone
to hail with glad acclaim new
conner who promises to bring "a
new industry into our COM
munity about which we know
nothing, and often times he knows
nothing, while at the same time,
we have small industries at home
that are potentially far better
than those that some outsider
promises to lay in our lap for
bonus of varying proportions. We
think that it would be better in
most instances to give the same
help and the same encourage
ment to the industries we already
have. We believe that in most
instances the home people who
have worked out their problems,
and have, as they say, gotten the
bugs out of it, can do the COM
munity more good than a half
dozen strangers and bonus seekers.

of living. This is a natural desire,
and, because it is a natural urge,
it cannot be held down or con-
trolled any more than the law of
gravity can be controlled, or the
coming and going Of the seasons,
or the light of day and the dark
ness of night. It will continue
to demand an expression as long
as these races exist. The new
peace must, we feel take this into
consideration, if it is to endure.
If it isn't taken into considera-
ton the urge will continue to
smolder and burn until it breaks
out again in struggle for equality
of rights that might easily spread
over the whole world.

Dear MIR. Reed:
I wish to heartily thank you
for sending me the Kennewick
Courier-Reporter.
Your paper makes a person
feel like he was away only on a
short visit, because it permits
us to know the everyday doings
of our friends.
I have been lucky in being able
to be in the States on and off but
believe will not be back for quite
some time. - ..,. .
I wish those people who are
complaining about the Negroes
could be over here. The Negroes
are doing a supreme job over
here and if we ban them in the
States I see no reason why they
should be made to fight. Yes,
sir, wish they would trade places.
They would certainly stop their
petty complaints.
Over here people get only gal.
of gasoline in one month. Over
half of their wages go into taxes,
And on top of that raise more
money for a 100000 lib. C36,00o,-

proud of our Australian allies.
Merry Christmas & Happy New
Year.

the paper, which / appreciate very

the best things that could be done,
