Today's Beauty Menu.
By Anne Votes CIorke

Like all fall and winter fash
ions, handbags are designed for
the occasion and the costume. The
well-dressed woman needs a ward
robe Of bags. one for each type
Of costume and time Of day. If
she has co-ordinated her &C.
cessories and chosen them cor
rectly she should be able to thrust
a well-gloved arm and hand
through a door and from her
sleeve, bag and glove you could
tell where she is going.
Bags are more elegant than
ever. even simple street bags to
be carried with tweeds or tailored
clothes. The materials determine
their use as much as the designs
do, for most bags are fairly plain
and all are definitely functional.
There is a wide selection in
smooth feathers, reptiles. suedes
and broadcloth for daytime, with
velvet and the richer brocades or
similar materials for late after
noon and evenings.
Broadcolth is being used this
year by some makers because it
is more durable than cashmere
which we have enjoyed in seasons
past. It will give better service
as an afternoon or dress-up bag
than suede. which looks so right
with mink. finer fabrics and other
formal or semiformal costumes.
Broadcloth is always softly styled,
usually made with dressmaker de-
tails and is seen most often in
black. though it is good in dark
colors too. These bags come with
longer. more slender handles

SWEATER?

From Mrs. r. H.. Arlington.)
Is there any one who can tell
me what to do with a hand
knitted sweater that is too large
from the armpit to the bottom
by about 2 inches on each side.
and yet fits perfectly from the
armpit to the shoulder?
It is a sleeveless, V-neck sweater
that ! have just finished for my

to rip it all out and start over
again.
The sweater has not yet been
blocked.
For the lady who asked about
"bococo." I think she is confusing
"baroque" and rocco" two types
of ornamentation used in art and
architecture from about the 18th
to the 18th century. the baroque
being the first. 1t (the baroque)
is characterized by large. sweeping
curves and contorted forms. Vio-
lent colors were used. The rocco
was more diminutive and re-
strained, smaller curves and pastel
colors. Furniture, painting and
a host Of things used for decora-
tive purposes are spoken Of as be-
longing to the baroque or rocco
period. The imitation pearls that
are irregular in form are called
"baroque." They are quite popu-
lar again.

Elegant New HANDBAGS

than they had last year, and in
many shapes including pouches
and frame bags.
Velvet is good buy in a hand
bag right now, for you can use
it for early fall and right on
through the winter. Black, navy
and red are the favored colors,
and shapes are very varied. A
popular type with the sheath
dresses Of autumn and winter is
the very long envelope which
crosses the T" of the silhouette
when held under the arm. Velvets
range from tiny pouches for the
petite woman to large shapes for
dramatic look If you're tall
enough to carry them.
1t would be hard to imagine
season without suede. so soft and
beautiful. 1t is elegantly designed
and sewn into bags for fall that
have great distinction. It goes
perfectly with your mink coat,
with dresSmaker cloth or fur
trimmed coats, with any late-day
costume. This year there is more
detail on suede bags than on
others. In buying suede or ante

a good quality, non-crockable

MATTRESSES?
Iron, Mrs. F. r. p, Arlington.)

from Mrs. F. r. p, Arlington.)
During the past few years I
have gathered many helpful hints
from your column. now have
very serious problem with which
I need further help.
Three years ago bought inner
spring and double-spring mat
tresses for my twin beds. Our
bedroom has two windows but is
situated so that it never gets the
sun. During the past spring and
summer the humidity has been
so high that my mattresses have
a sour odor that is quite unpleas-
ant. 1t is impossible to get them
down a fight of stairs and around
the apartment block to let them
air and dry in the sun. The mat
tresses are kept very clean, with
an electric vacuum; they are
turned; they have never been
rained on or stained in any way,
and still they have the old humid
sour smell.
During the past two weeks I
have pulled them sideways on the
box-springs to get as much circu-
lation through them as possible,
but in a one-bedroom apartment
it is a problem to get them aired
sufficiently when they must be
used at night.
I would appreciate any sugges-
tions you or your ladies could
give me, either in letter directed
to me, or an item in your column.

the whole thing, as I feel it is a
reflection on my ability to run

The National Production Au-
thority looked today for a way
to prevent military orders from
disrupting the flow Of steel to auto
and other civilian goods producers.
It hoped that a steel industry
task force" might come up with
the formula.
Both NPA and the industry fear
that a flood of defense orders
bearing the compulsory DO" pri-
ority rating may be dumped on a
few key steel companies which
might thus be washed out of the
civilian market.
The task force" of steel execu-
tives has undertaken to draft a
proposal under which no indi-
vidual company would be required
to accept priority orders beyond a
certain percentage of its total pro-
duction. The group is expected
to recommend shortly a figure in
the neighborhood of 20 per cent.
Tobin Urges Plant Expansion.
Any priority orders beyond that
point would be Steered to other
companies found to be able to
handle them without Gripping
output for civilian goods.
Along this same line, Secretary
OF Labor Tobin recommended yes
terday immediate plant expansion
for defense production instead of
general shifting from civilian to
military output.
Mr.. Tobin said in a speech at
Columbus. Ohio, that plant expan-
sion and increase Of manpower to
handle the expanded production
would allow for more rapid con-
version Ito total mobilization than
II we had to expand plant and ca
pacity after the crisis was upon
U.S."
But even such a system, Mr..
Tobin added, will not prevent some
curtailment of civilian production.
The steel industry task force has
agreed to operate for the duration
Of the defense emergency In chan
neling military orders into the
mills best able to handle them and
to see that the munitions burden
is distributed equitably over the
industry.
May Apply to Other Metals.
NPA is expected to attach the
proposed ruling. with possible
revisions. to the priority regula-
ton 1t issued Monday night.
Under that order military con-
tracts are given first call on scarce
materials and plant capacity.
The technique thus established
probably will govern the future
handling of orders in other key
industries such as copper. alum
mum, zinc and lead.
Widely differing estimates have
been given as to the drain on steel
capacity of the expanding pre-
paredness program. Some steel
executives have estimated that IL
per cent of total output will go
into defense.
Military officials say that direct
buying by the armed forces will
not take more than 4 per cent, or
