Foundation Garments
For New Fall Fashions

You'll see more corselets
this season because of the un-
broken line required by Slim
med fashions.
The woman with a mature
figure knows about corselets.
The junior who has never
worn a corselet should try one
nova light. elastic style to
lift the bosom, mould the mid
riff and control from the waist
down.
For fashions that At snug
to the hips, then flare, there
is the bra-lette. This favorite
from the days of the bouffant
skirt has been modified to
exercise longer control, lift
ing the bosom high, lengthen-
ing the waistline. holding tight
over the hips.
In this phase Of the fashion
cycle when skirts are narrow,
corsetry devotes strict atten-
ton to the hipline. with four
section and bias constructions,
and with greater use of rigid
front and back panels.
Even junior garments have
firmer controls. Above-the-
waist portions Of girdle or
pantie girdle smooth, without
markedly indenting the waist
line.
Like the high girdle. the long
line brassiere trims the mid
riff. and further contributes
to the illusion of a long waist
line by lifting the bust.
The current unexaggerated
line is particularly appropriate
for the knitted dresses and
sweaters that are SO smart.

defeated Democratic mayors in
six cities. A Democrat also went

Miners Consider
Higher Tariffs to
Bolster Industry

SACRAMENTO, Calf. R-Min-
ing industry recommendations for
tariff hikes to bolster its economy
were considered today by the
Western Governors Mining Advis-
DRY Council.
The conclusion Of a two-day
meeting Of the mineral policies;
conference brought a request that
tariffs ranging from Is to 100 per
cent of market price be fixed on
various minerals.
"They would assure to domestic
industry its fair share of the do
nestle market" recommended the
mineral economics policy section
Of the conference. Tariffs are
needed, too, it was said, to pro
vide a broad mobilization base i'm
time of emergency"
In 1889, the section noted, tar
ifs on metals averaged about 40
percent. 1t estimated initiation and
tariff cuts to help the economy of
foreign nations have reduced them
to less than 10 percent.
If there is too much opposition
to increased tariffs, the recon-
mendation said, the tariff that is
now collected should be given to
domestic mineral producers.
"The outlook for the mineral
industry in the United States is
cloudy indeed" the Advisory
Council was told.
"Thorium and antimony no
longer are Mined" said the rec
ommendation. Chrome, gold, sill
yer, fluorspar, manganese, tung-
stem, zinc, mercury and uranium
are able to plan for a future rang
ing in length from a few months
to relatively few years.
''Only copper and, to a lesser
extent, lead can clearly see a flu
ture where markets can absorb
their probable output at a price
which can permit them to live and

2 Nomeites Included in Appointments
By Mildred Hermann to Rules Group

FAIRBANKS, IA committee
headed by Burke Riley of Haines
worked today on rules for Alas
ka's Constitutional Convention.
Riley was named chairman of a
Rules Committee appointed yes
terday afternoon by Mildred Her
mann, temporary chairman Of the
Convention. He said the commit
tee expected to present proposed
rules today for Convention con-
sideration.
The Public Administration Ser
vice furnished the committee with
rules from constitutional conven-
tons of past years.
Other Rules Committee mem
bers are Edward Davis and Steve
McCutcheon, Anchorage; George
Sundborg, Juneau; M. J. Walsh
and John A. McNeese, Nome; and
Ralph Rivers, Fairbanks.
The Convention met for only
eight minutes yesterday afternoon.
The only business besides the
Rules Committee appointment
was an announcement on bus
transportation and the unanimous
vote to ask former Gov. Gruening
to keynote today's meeting.
Delegates were assured there
would be adequate bus transpor-
tation between the University of
Alaska and Fairbanks, a distance
of three miles. The Alaska State
hood Committee will pay for this
service.
Delegates from the far-flung

cities and villages of the north
convened at the university yeSter-
day to draft constitution. They
came from such outposts as Kla-
wock, Kotzebue and Unalakleet
with an eye toward the needs of
what would be the nations larg-
est state and hope in their hearts
that Congress will make it one.
In recognition of the territory's
racial tradition, the invocation
was by the Rev. Roy Ahmoagak,
an Eskimo minister in the arctic
village of Wainwright.
The document that energies
from the 75-day convention must
be submitted to the people Of AL
aska for approval and then must
be submitted to Congress.
Legislators who sponsored the
act contended congressional action
for statehood would be more like
ly if the territory has its constitu-
ton all drawn.
Hawaii held a similar conven-
ton several years ago.
The session is being held in the
university gymnasium, which has
been renamed Convention Hall.

voting delegate in Congress, adj
monished the delegates to draft a
constitution to guarantee the basic
liberties and to safeguard the vast
natural resources upon which the

which the United States imposed
on us, and which we have suf-
fered for 88 years, is no less bur
denSome, no less unjust than that
against which they (our founding
fathers) poured out blood and
treasure. J"
The former governor charged
that the United States broke faith
with Alaska after purchasing the
territory from Russia.
He quoted the Treaty of Cessa-
tion, by which Alaska was an
nexed, as containing the following
clause:
''The inhabitants of the coded
territory . shall be admitted to
all rights, advantages and immu-
mites Of citizens Of the United
States. ]"
Said Gruening: s'That was the
pledge. Yet treaty is the highest
law Of the land, and it is made in
clear view Of all mankind"
He charged that Alaskans are
worse off than the founding faith
ers of our nation who revolted
against the King of England.
Pointing put that Alaskans are
taxed without representation, he
said residents Of the territory also
are subject to military service for
the nation-a privilege and an OBJ
legation Alaska gladly accepts
but an obligation that King
George III did not impose on our
colonial forefathers."

He told his audience that "our

Then, DR.. Gruening took the or
iginal Declaration Of Indepen-
dence and compared the COM
plants Of our founding fathers
with the complaints Of present
day Alaskans. His comparison
showed a similarity between the
grievances of 1776 and the
"gripes" of present-day Alaskans.

a colony than were those thirteen
colonies along the Atlantic sea-
board in ITS. The colonialism

For that reason, said Al Ander-
