1t says the party will act to
redress the dangerous imbalance
of arms in the area created by
the shipment of communist arms
to Egypt, by selling or supplying
defensive weapons to Israel, and
will take such steps, including
security guarantees, as may be
required to deter aggression and
war in the area"
The foreign policy plank also
calls the United Nations "indis-
pensible for the maintenance of
world peace and for the settle
ment of controversies between
nations small and large" and
pledges "every effort to strength

role as guide and guardian of

mission of the communist Chi
nese into the United Nations" 1t
says ''they have proved their COM

The same plank urges "a con-

1t says the party will press for
Soviet Russia TO withdraw its

as to permit free elections, in
compliance with the Atlantic

FASHION NOTEBOOK
FlatterY Comes First,
Then High Fashion

Up until six years ago, says
the former dancer turned de-
signer, the dressy dress at a
price the average woman could
afford was practically nonex-
istent. ut was cooked up,
overdesigned, generally in bad
taste with little to set it
apart" she added.
Her fashion credo reads,
'I've tried to perfect a way of
making a dress in the French
manner of building it from in
side out. In using fabrics that
are in higher-priced clothes,
and giving good workmanship
I believe Suzy Perette gives
fashion at a price,"
She does not go along with
the popular notion of many
people that designers don't
know what they're doing. "You
know what's coming next year
because good design is a natu-
rally evolving thing"

SUPPORTER SAYS
Adlui Stevenson
Not 'IndecisiVe'

Several District candidates
on the Stevenson slate were in
the audience, including Mrs.
Polly Shackelton (who ran as
alternate Democratic National
Committeewoman) who sat at
the head table.
The former Illinois governor
emerged, at the conclusion of
the speech, as "a man with a
real passion for his family and
FARM loved the outdoors.
and liked to take his children
to hunt Indian arrow heads
(the Stevenson farm is in old
Indian territory.
Birthday Party
Mrs. Dick also told of Ste
venson's annual birthday
party, a family institution
which includes gay skitS and
similar merriment. And she
recalled the big Christmas
party "for children only"
which Stevenson gave each
year in the governors mansion
at Springfield. Her children all
came back singing the praises
of "the guv," as they all called
him, she said.
She recalled the year her
own 13-year-old boy went to
the Christmas party, but went
to bed before the fun started.
"The governor went looking
for him, and later read me a
lecture. Jane, you certainly
have brought your children
up most extravagantly,' he
said.
1T seems my son had gone to
sleep with all the lights on in
his bedroom. All his friends
know that Adlai has always
watched pennies. But I thought
it was very touching that the
governor of a State, with all
his problems, would notice the
absence Of one 13-year-old
boy, and go looking for him"

Don't get sold on high FASH
ion if it looks awful on you.
This sage piece of fashion
advice comes from Evelyn
Dawson, better known to thou
sands and thousands of wom-
en- who wear her clothes as
"Suzy Perette."
"Most American women have
wonderful figures, and I want
to improve them" says the
vivacious designer who turns
out between 1000 and 5000
designs a year for her firm.
Young Figure
A good figure is a young fig
ure. 1t has a high bust. slim
torso, and tiny waist.
To insure this line, Miss
Dawson gives her designs an
inner construction that pro-
vides this figure for those who
may not have their own built
in flattery.
One of the most interesting
talks I ever listened to was
given by Miss Dawson in New
York at a recent Press Week
gathering Of fashion editors
from all over the country. She
called it a "chalk talk" and
traced the evolution of many
of her famous Perette sill
houettes.
Comments like most wom-
en- have an idea of a silhouette
but are unaware of how it
evolved" were accompanied
by sketches. A silhouette such
as her Perette Prince Sheath
would be drawn and also her
variations on that slim fashion
theme. From an original long,
long, torso line she evolved
the Prince sheath, the Empire
Prince, the Corselette Prince.
and then the long torso two
piece Prince Silhouette.
We've Snagged her original
sketches for two of these
chalk talk" sequences and
have reproduced them for you.
In the full-skirt lineup an
other fashion evolution is
seen in her Princess silhouette
that runs the gamut of the
Perette Empire Princess line,
the Perette Corselette silhou-
cite, the draped waistline, on
into her long-torso full-skirted
idea.
Il like many silhouettes for
women. First they must be be-
coming whether they are full
skirted, slim, long torso,
corset torso, empire, and all
can be made to flatter the
wearer'S figure" says Evelyn
Dawson.
Three Appeals
Three appeals must be in
every dress she designs. Eye
appeal. sex appeal. and purse
appeal. These she makes GER

Adlai Stevenson is mot at
all indecisive, as some people
seem to think" Mrs. Edison
Dick, a longtime friend of the
Stevenson family, told men,
bers of the Woman's National
Democratic Club yesterday.
"A Chicago socialite whose
three children were close
companions of Stevenson's
three sons, Mrs. Dick was ma
tional co-chairman of Volun-
teerS for Stevenson in 1852.
This year she is national CO.
chairman Of its successor
organization, the National

mittee.
She addressed the club yes
terday on her personal recol-
lections of Stevenson, the man,
as she observed him. The Ste
vensons bought their Liber-

not far from the Dicks home
in suburban Lake Forest.

doubts never arise from an
inability to make up his mind,
but from an absolute passion
to look at both sides of every
question, to be absolutely con-
WINGED that what he is doing
Is the right thing, not some
thing that he is doing as a re-
suit of pressure" said Mrs.
Dick.
"Once he has weighed all
the factors and made a deci-
sion, he sticks to it with firm
ness and determination" she
added later. 81 have never
seen him change his opinion,
or his stated views, just to
meet a situation"
Mrs. Dick congratulated
District Stevenson supporters
on their apparent victory in
Tuesdays primary. and said
she thought it would have IAN
enormous impact on the rest
of the country, particularly on
the forthcoming primaries in
Oregon, Florida and California.
''It is your first primary, and
after all, Washington is the
hub of the Nation" she said.

The Bulletin, Washington's
Ione-page newspaper for 81
years, bowed out yesterday.
Primarily a sports news
medium, the big page paper was
familiar to thousands in barber
shops. restaurants. bowling
alleys and other business places.
Published by the United Pub
fishing Co., Inc, Of TIT Sixth
street NV, the Bulletins use
fulneSs lessened with the earlier
and later editions of the big
daily papers and the sports news
on radio and television.
For many years the paper
published three times a day-at
IL noon, 3 pm. and during ball
season, whenever the Washing
ton ball games were over.
Owners Statement

Henry TAFT Rodier, who first
joined the publishing company
in 1915, put it this way:
THE paper got the latest news
to the public after the big
dailies' morning editions, before
their evening editions - and
after them.
Crowds gathered where the
Bulletin was posted in windows
one such time when We scooped
the world on the election of
President Woodrow Wilson"
The Bulletin was started as a
baseball paper on october 8. 1894,
by Thomas c. Noyes, William j.
Dwyer and John j. Walsh. Mr..
Noyes was a brother Of Theodore

The Washington bureau will
step up its "shoppings" Of fake

advertisers are unable or unwill-
ing to substantiate their claims
and media continue to carry such
advertising after being advised OF
the facts, the bureau will refer its
findings to the appropriate au-
thorities. MI. Mccarthy said the
bureau will make every effort to
help advertisers keep their price
claims accurate and Informative.
He said reputable retailers in
many parts of the country are
giving serious study to the entire
problem and some have indicated
they are anxious to bring it out
into the open.
A few, he noted, have gone so
far as to either eliminate the use
of comparative claims entirely
from their advertising, or have
limited their use to Just a few
items of merchandise. He said
this was encouraging but that the
Better Business Bureaus do not
feel such drastic action is neces-
sary.
"Our objective is very simple, /"
he declared. I'VE only want to
see comparative price claims on a
provable basis which
will merit the confidence of the
public"
