The Army has knocked at least
one prop from under the traditional
military "caste system" by ordering
that officers and GIs shall dress
alike-after July 1, 1948.
The new regulation, issued last
night, prescribes for ordinary uni
form the popularly-known Eisen-
hover battle jacket" and trousers
Of the same olive drab used in en-
listed mems clothing. Also included,
after the same date, is a return to
the Army "blues," which went out
after Pearl Harbor, as the dress
uniform for officers and enlisted
men alike.

shall ye be able to identify them," a
public relations officer explained.
Meets GI Complaint.
The new uniform will be adopted
for universal use throughout the
Army after the 1948 deadline pro-
vided they can be manufactured
without interfering with the pro-
duction of civilian clothing. If the
''blues" do not become available by
that time, the olive drab jackets and
trousers will have to serve the dual
purpose of duty and dress wear.
The regulation meets a common
complaint from CT circles that their
uniforms lack class" compared with
officers.
Also to be abandoned are the va
rious types Of long and short over
coats. Instead. combination over
coat-raincoat with detachable lin
ing will be adopted. The new
standard jacket and trousers will do

of the Army, supplanting the multi
colored mixtures of shirts, blouses

when Gen. Eisenhower, now Chief
OF Staff, was in command there.
The agitation that resulted in the
recently ordered investigation Of the

the Army to act at this time.
Tests for a satisfactory shade Of
blue now are being made and it is
certain the Army will keep a wary
eye so as not to get confused with
the Marine blues. Brass buttons
and piping in the color of the in

Ex-0fficer Says Sub
SheIIed North Carolina
Chemical Plant in '43
By the Associafsd Press

WILMINGTON, N. c., Mar. a.
A German submarine lobbed five
shells at Kure Beach chemical
plant near here on July 20, 1943, re-
sulting in total blackout of the en-
tire Southeastern North Carolina
Coast, a retired Coast Guard officer
said yesterday.
No previous report of the incident
had been made.
The officer, 1t. Comdr. Louis Han
son, was in charge of the Coast
Guards auxiliary fleet of the North
Carolina coast at the time.
Shells Missed Target.
He said the German crafts fire
was directed at the Ethyl-Dow
Chemical Co., 20 miles from VIII
mington, which was producing ma
terials used In 100-octane aviation
gasoline.
The shells missed their target and
landed harmlessly in the Cape Fear
River, he added.

said, and the submarine submerged
and escaped in the darkness. How
ever, he said that he later learned
the enemy vessel was located the
next day and destroyed by Army
planes.
Was at Sea Of Beach.
The officer said he was at sea of
Carolina Beach at the time and the
submarines fire was visible from his
small auxiliary vessel.
His story of the attack was told
after a chemist at the plant re-
vealed for the first time reasons
for the total coastal blackout dur
ing the night of the raid.
Civilian defense records show that
the blackout continued for 31a hours
and was the only one which halted
operations at the North Carolina
Shipbuilding Co. here.

COMMENT.

From M. W. Alexandria,
To some extent I agree with Mrs,
F. NJ Nothing is more tiresome
than a complaining neurotic, mar
tyred wife who expects her husband
to take over household tasks and
wash the dishes night after night
and on his days off. There are many
such women in our modern civiliza-
eion.
On the other hand, marriage is
fifty-f1fty proposition. Undoubt-
edly, Mrs. F. M has no children and
is unaware of the importance OF
providing a happy home for chill
dren and of preparing children to
be f-Sufflcient. uninhibited ano
independent, in order to cope with
| the atomic age in which they are
growing up. There are many women
without children who have time or
their hands and should be as fresh
as a daisy when the lord and master
comes home after a hard day at the
office. Mothers of small children
/ have an eXhausting, never-endine
/ job regardless of the pleasure the
; job can bring. During the first
two years of my marriage, worked
at my profession. l came home
from work as many other women dc
and did all the work that the aver
age home maker does. I never ex-
pected help from my husband, and
believe me some evenings l was
exhausted.
Although, I loved my work,
much prefer keeping my home run
ming as smoothly and efficiently as
possible and caring for my two
small children. I have always made
it a point to have the house tidy
and be dressed when my husband
comes home. I rest If at all possible
to brighten my disposition. l fee
that it is my job. However, I don't
feel that it's asking TOGO much tc
have by husband help me after a
particularly trying day. Most of us
younger women have shared the
Job of bringing home the bacon
with our husbands and have beer
completely self f-supporting before
marriage. Therefore. most modern
wives are fully aware that earning
a living is no picnic.

Furs in July
BY Jane CLARK

Briefly, here are just few Of the
high fashion notes cleaned from the
early collections.
For wintertime casual wear, there
will be great coats" or travel
coats as some of the designers call
them These will be made from the
long wearing. curly or shaggy furs.
Very often they will be designed
with a hood attached. Brilliant
plaid or plain wool Innings will be
revealed in wide. turned back cuffs
and in the facing of the hoods.
There will be high fur boots to
match these coats, if you like and
If you please!
For evening wear there will be
elegant stoles of fur for those who
can afford them. These are made,
very often, of diamond shaped pieces
of fur rather than the stripes which
we are accustomed to seeing. These
should be worn, by all means. with
a queenly carriage! Capes will be
very popular. They will flaunt an
all-over pattern, very often. This is
created by the use of two toned
pieces of fur such as blue and black
fox, or a combination Of two OF the
shades of dyed mink.
Goats for street wear will be cut
with new sleeve interest and fare
widely at the back. The fitted coats
will have a tunic look about them
or, perhaps a Chinese or Russian in
fuence in their styling. Furs from
two different families will be COM
bined to make a coat. A beaver coat
may have a bodice belt, inset, and
wide, turned back cuffs OF spotted
| leopard. In other words, fur coats
will take on some of the color con-
trast that has formerly been found
in dresses and suits.
Strictly, the last word in high fash
ion, we'd say, is the use of a sprlnk
ling of sequins over fiat furs to be
worn after dark. THAT'S elegance
All of which just goes to prove that
where fashion is concerned, we're
in for a wintertime of elegance and
luxury, unequaled in many a moon.

PLANTS FOR GREENHOUSE.

From Mrs. M. ~. Washington
l have number of large, unusual
and very attractive house plans
some to 9 feet tall. I cannot &C
.comodate them in my average-size
home. Would like to offer them to
someone who is flower lover, and
who has small greenhouse which
would provide suitable home for
these plants.

Daddy will probably be interested
in securing feather-light, ball
bearing lawnmower. The newest
type is extremely light in weight,
all castings being of aluminium alloy
metal. Gears are totally inclosed
and it is said to be nonbreakable.
even with unusually hard use. Rub
ber tires make it shock-resisting
and gives better traction. Other
features are so technical that prob
ably only Dad would understand
about them so we won't go into the
matter here. However, we'll bet il
he acquires such a mower he'll
hesitate to lend 1t to the "forgetful
neighbor."
What a treat for bride of 1946.
or 1921 for that matter! A self
sharpening knife rack equipped
with six knives ranging from a
pairing knife to carver or slicer.
The rack is made of durable hard
wood, finished in a high glaze and
has glass -inclosed sides which are
lllC ldSt NOl " III odlCty- IfCly bAAlIL
you remove or replace knife it
sharpens itself In other words
there is no skill nor additional work
needed to always keep keen edge.
The set may be placed on table
top or it can be attached vertically
in a convenient place to the wall.
Note: The racks may be purchased
without the knives If you happen
to be oyerstocked on the latter.
The latest in folding chairs are
those made Of aluminium with cam
vas backs and seats. They are very
strong and durable and with rea-
sonable amount of care should last
indefinitely. The canvas is finished
IN bright colors; a pleasure to sec
after so much khaki or natural
colored canvas these past years. You
have choice of bright yellow, blue
or orange and the shades wouldn't
clash if you decided to mix them.
The chairs are light in weight and
fold so snugly that they could be
"toted' to victory gardens or the
beach.

BY Dorothy BihIman

A new household and electric ap-
pliance store has made its debut in
Washington On recent visit we
were pleased to find that not only
the building. but stocks, down 10
the smallest item were brand new
At present they have quite line
of articles from lawn chairs down
to metal treads for getting ones
car out of the mud, but we were
informed that within a short time
they hoped to expand to an even
greater degree We jotted down a
few of the heretofore hard -to-get
items; perhaps one of them is "just
what you've been looking for"
Take, for instance, an all-purpose
complete kitchen unit under one
cover. This deluxe electric broiler
bakes, cooks and toasts, efficiently
and economically. 1t Is designed
with slots on the side instead of top
vents, thereby retaining and circu-
lating even heat. The polished
aluminium broiler Is we'll rounded
for easy cleaning. No grooves or
corners for dirt to gather, and the
wire grill which fits over the heating
element is nickel plated, so there is
practically no chance of rusting.
Ideal for summer use, especially for
people living in small apartments
that become unbearable if the stove
oven is used for any length of time
This unit does not throw off enough
heat to be noticeable
A new pressure pan is another
ideal investment for the modern
kitchen. 1t cooks fresh green peas
in a mere two minutes. a whole
chicken in Is minutes and custard
