i. ). Units Buy
II Recorders
BY the Associated Press

Eight different Government
Offices have bought II minia-
ture wire recorders since last
July, the kind that can be
concealed under a jacket with
the microphone secreted in a
tiepin or wriStwatch.
Senator Hennings, Democrat
of Missouri, chairman Of sub
committee on constitutional
rights, announced this today.
based on reports from the
agencies. He said he had no
information on what the re-
corders we're to be used for,
and added:
Il should make it perfectly
clear that I have not &.
drawn any conclusion to date
that the mere possession of a
miniature recording device is
necessarily sinister or even i'm
proper"
Senator Hennings started his
investigation after a witness
demonstrated to his subcom-
mittee last month how a re-
corder could be hidden in a
holster under his coat. He con-
fined the inquiry to a German
make that is on the price list of
the General Services Admins
tration. which furnishes sup
plies to Federal Offices.
A total of $14l, 1876 worth of
these recorders (Minifon) was
bought in the first half Of fis-
cal 1860, Senator Hennings
said. The Offices which bought
them were the Internal Revenue
Service, Naval Security Station,
National Institutes of Health,
Fort Holabird, Md; Cleveland
(Ohio) district director of in
ternal revenue; signal supply
officer, Decatur, ILL.,; Veterans
Administration Hospital, Phoe-

Civif War
Exhibit Urged
Al Postal Site

The ground floor of the old
Post Office Building was pro-
posed as an exhibit center to
house Civil War relics during
the f1ve-year centennial obser-
vance starting next January.
The suggestion was made at
the annual meeting of the Ma
tional Civil War Centennial
Commission in the Interior De-
partment.
Karl S. Belts, executive direc-
tor of the commission, said
negotiations are under way
with General Services Admin
istration to obtain use of the
space for exhibits ranging in
size up to cannon of the period
The 3,800-Square-feet of floor
space is now used by GSA to
store files Of the Federal Bureau
Of Investigation.
Mr.. Belts called the digni-
fed old stone structure an
Ideal spot" for an exhibit in
which all the States that fought
in the struggle 100 years ago
would install displays. The
structure is at Twelfth street
and Pennsylvania avenue NV.
Another project discussed at
the session was the possibility

Seaworthy condition. The 49,
year-old ship, which saw sea
duty in the Civil War and
earlier American campaigns,
would be used as a floating ex-

alton cost would be financed

The Securities and Exchange
Commission today issued this
official warning to investors
reaping profits from the high
est stock prices on record:
1T cannot be overemphasized
that nothing in the securities
laws or their administration can
keep the market price of Sc
curitieS from fluctuating, down
as we'll as up"
The advice was given in the
agency'S 25th anniversary re-
port to Congress. The state
ment was prepared before stock
prices started a new climb this
week in the wake Of the steel
settlement.
The SEC said all investors
and their advisers should ex-
ercise care and even restraint in
their analysis. evaluation and
purchase of securities" The
repbrt continued:
1T is most essential that in
veStors exercise extreme care

brokerage firms and their
salesmen, particularly those
who telephone long distance

without risk of loss. through
purchase of stock of a par
ticular company. Common
sense would dictate that such
a promise is utterly fantastic
and ridiculous"
The SEC quoted an estimate
that 12.5 million Americans
now own stock-nearly twice
as many as in 1852.
"A boiling stock market not
only attracts new investors,
some of whom have neither
the resources nor the knowl-
edge and skill to speculate in
the stock market. but also at
tracts a fringe element ever
ready to take unfair advantage

Developed for Those
With Extra Heavy Precipitation

Have you given up on anti
perspirants2 Do you have a shelf
full of creams, lotions, liquids
that refuse to answer your prob

Now there's an Anti-Perspirant
that's made just for your case.
1t isn't scented, it's a liquid that
you put on once a night for four
nights and then none.
Called Mitcilum's Anti-Perspir-

ruined dresses and shirts for
years with their extraordinary
perspiration. After the first week
you will not need it more than
every five to seven nights. Now
with the warmer season among

that will really work. Nothing is

perspiration; it can spoil the

fabric soon rots and the dress is

WORDS, WIT
AND WISDOM
BY WILLIAM MORRIS

Question: Why. oh why. don't
the patent medicine makers
learn that their use of bad
grammar in commercials makes
lots of listeners swear never to
buy their products! Tonight,
for instance. my 12-year-old
daughter was watching TvI
when one of those hard hitting
plugs for pills came on. The
pitch concerned the fact that
these particular pellets are
made by "the exact same for
mula" they've used for 80 years.
My daughter says that sounds
like bad grammar to her and
I agree. Do you?-Mrs. L. c. M,
Silver Springs, Md.
Answer: Once again this
seems a sample of the calcu-
lated illiteracy praeticed by
certain advertisers on the
theory that bad grammar acts
as an irritant and makes the
listener remember the CONNER
cial. That's true enough, of
course. What the Madison
Avenue geniuses overlook is
that anyone of sense and SEN
sibilities Is going to shun the
product-not buy it.
In the case in point, the cor
rect formulation should be:
exactly the same product" ..
Most Of us will remember the
schoolbook definition of .'ad-
verb: a word used to modify
a verb, adjective or other adj
verb by expressing time, place,
degree, etc. In this, case, the
word same" is to be modified
by the idea Of "exactness."
Since same" is an adjective,
it should have an adverb eek
actly'') not an adjective ("ex-
act") as its modifier. So If this
advertiser wants to broaden
his market to include people of
good ste-albeit poor diges-
tion--he should change the
copy to read: Little Pills are
made by exactly the same for
mula that we have used for
eighty years"
incidentally, the term "pat-
ent medicine" to describe q
medical preparation privately
trade-marked or made by secret
formula is frowned on by the
patent medicine makers them
selves. They prefer the more
elegant proprietary remedy"
At today's prices, they may be
justified in insisting on ele-
gance.

they are sufficiently tapered.
Bubbling darts are caused
by too much fabric being
taken out at the end Of the
dart.
In other words the darts
are too short and too wide.
For a good At, skirts should
have two darts on each side
of front and back, thus allow
ing the fullneSs to be taken
in gradually.
Very often, just lengthen-
ing the darts a little will take
up the fullneSS.
If you're short-waiSted. you
might try lifting the skirt a
little until the hip line is in
the proper place, then trim
ming some off at the waist;
you must then lengthen the
darts the same amount you
cut of or possibly even more.
Try this on a sample piece
of muslin until you've hit it
and then use this sample for
future patterns.

Here are some others and
answers to help you.

QUESTION. Whenever I
make a dress with a Scooped.
round or bateau neckline it
always gaps. Can you sug-
gest a way to avoid this?
ANSWER. First, I suggest
that you work on muslin un-
til you conquer this problem.
Cut your pattern out in the
, muslin; then take two or
three tucks or darts in the
fabric, beginning at the
neckline and tapering to the
zero point 8 inches below the
edge Of neckline (illustra-
tion.)
You can do this In front,
back, or both If necessary.
Whenever this Is done. you
must then do the same to
the paper pattern in exactly
the same places.
This alteration must be
made on the pattern, because
once the garment is cut. the
extra fullneSs cannot be tax
en- out.
Don't At the neckline too
tightly or it may look
stretched out of shape after
it is finished.

QUESTION. First, let me
say how much I'm enjoying
your column. I read it each
time it Is in the paper and
have learned a lot already.
Now, my trouble is darts. I
always get a fullneSs at the
bottom of darts in the back
Of my skirts. They fit well
until they get to within three
or four inches Of the bottom.
This fullness is between the
lower end, and at the bot
tom. In fact, it bulges over
the seat. I line the skirts, but
the lining doesn't seem to be
causing my trouble. I'm
short-waisted and wonder If
that might be one of the
causes?
ANSWER. I can't tell you
how pleased I am that you're
enjoying the column and that
you are gaining something
from it. Thank you!
I will just assume, that
this bulge is not caused partly
by the side seams and that
