OIleTeu lOF COllSlueTdLlOH Dy the
city heads.
A spokesman for the Cham.
ber's committee said its recon.
mendation for the long-term
fiscal study arose from concern
with the rising ratio of the
city's bonded Indebtedness in
comparison with the valuation
of its assessable properties.
Eight years ago, figures show,
this ratio stood at a high of
AS. Between 1854 and 1858, it
dropped steadily to 2.04, only
to jump up to 1853 in 1859 with
the authorization of several sub
stantial bond issues, and rise
further this year to 4.04.
The Chamber wants the city
heads to take a long, close look
at their known and anticipated
capital requirements for the
years ahead and determine how
they will relate to the growth
of Rockville's assessable base,
the actual value of the town
properties.
Another major item in the
budget review committees rec
concentrations was its opposi-
ton to an across-the-board in
crease of 71z9o in the salaries
OF city employees.
The committee spokesman
said the Chamber would prefer
to see salary adjustments made
on the basis Of individual con
siderations,
Taking issue with the city's
proposal to include the cost OF
a 5-million gallon in-town water
storage tank to provide for fu.
ture needs, the committee rec.
commended the city build at this
time a smaller tank, perhaps
in the order of a 2-million gallon
tank.
"The smaller tank will sat
isfy current and intermediate
term requirements" its report
read. Furthermore, the fl
nancing of this storage tank
and the financing charges may
be related to the city's current
assessable base"
1t argued that construction OF
any additional in-town water
storage tanks should be de-
ferred until the city has a
firmer idea Of its future water
requirements, at which time the
financing and financing charges
could be kept in line with the
city's expanded assessable base.

ance companies in New York

at least six thefts relating to
women who have had hat
boxes stolen from them while
on European flights.
OF course, they've all been
Mr.. John hatboxeS, he mod
eStly notes. But it proves
they love our hats over there!
The hat and the woman is
a subject on which Mr.. John
wakes lyrical.
I'm not bothered about
the woman who won't wear
a hat on her orthopedic hair
do. I don't like women who
talk about what they have
on. Women with manners
never discuss what a hat or
a dress costs. I don't even
care if they don't mention
that it's my hat they're wear
ing, when someone admires
it.
Women with manners
can do anything in fashion
because they are not self
conscious about it," he be-
lieves.
Mrs. Kennedy" for ex-
ample, wears a scarf when
she goes to church some
times. I think she's in perfect
taste because I feel we ought
to be humble when we go to
church" Certainly, he feels,
she knows when to wear a
hat at the right time.
The woman hat collector
who stores them up like a
squirrel stores up nuts, has
a real complex, says Mr..
John.
She's different from the
truly smart woman who can
keep a hat in her closet for
20 years. Mr.. John points
out. II feel a good hat with
good design, is like owning
a Rembrandt" Beauty is
timeless.
The thing women forget,
is that as the years go by,
their bodies and faces change
shape, their colorlng changes,
and these are the factors that
govern whether a hat can
stand the time and flattery
test.
The women Mr.. John ad-
mires are the women who
shop alone. He can't stand
women who come in with
their girl friends who are
equally indecisive. Il like
to talk with a woman about
her life, what she will wear
with the hat, and certainly if
she's clever, she'll not have
to depend on a girl friends,
or even her husbands advice.
Il think we're 20 years
ahead of Europe mentally. in
industry, in our mode of
living, and in fashion," Mr..
John says emphatically.
He pooh-poohs Paris. AS
far as statements such as
Partisan women who are
really chic, are going hatless
these days" go, Mr.. John
says with equal authority,
IT'S the unsophisticated
women only. who prefer hat
lessness because they can't
get a hat on those balloons
and zeppelins they call
hairdoS."
But as far as being mad
about the fashion situation,
Mr.. John really couldn't care
less.

In Washington yesterday
at Erlebacher's where his hat

personal appearance, Mr..
John wasn't talking through
his hat when he told us that
he does get mad, however,
with people who are con-
stantly downgrading Amer
ican women and American
fashion. That's the big
game today-telling every
body what's wrong with
them"
There's plenty right with

. parties she has been holding
across the country. II fell in
love with the tea ritual and
thought it charming, pre-
icious, and I think that
clothes, too, should reflect
an ease and a charm.
Women today are worried
about so many more impor-
tant things. am not one to
argue about Paris fashions
against New York. Women
shouldn't be troubled about
clothes, and I really feel that
fashion can bring beauty
into this world that is so
frenetic and chaotic, if we
would concentrate on long
range beauty in a wardrobe,
rather than being preoc-
cupied with the fashion of
the moment" Adele insists.
Adele's sense of humor re-
garding the role fashion
plays in the life of a woman
certainly comes through as
she relates some of the anec-
doteS she herself has lived
through.
"I love the way all of us
in the fashion business say
American women dress for
the lives they lead. I'm still
trying to figure out the two
women who came into a shop
I was visiting in La Jolla
without shoes or stockings
on and tried on several cos
tunes. One bought one for
$795, and the other an out
fit selling for $495. I offered
to have some shoes sent up
for them to try on with the
clothes, but they just stood
on tiptoe, and turned around
to look in the mirror. All I'm
hoping is, that when they
do get around to wearing
those Adele Simpson clothes,
they'll be wearing shoes"
Another unforgettable
fashion scene etched in
Adele's memory is the sight
of the elegant woman dress
ed in a bright red Originala
coat, with a fur hat and high
heels, stopping her chauf-
feur-driven car beside a Cali
fornia lake, and fly casting.
The audience at yester-
days show was fascinated
with the clothes, the gaily
wrapped jars of Tender Leaf
tea they received, and more
than one commented on what
a charming way to spend an
afternoon shopping. Several
others wanted to know where
to get the Rainbow colored
sugar crystals, Adele had
brought down from New
York to carry out the Tea
Party theme. They're put out
by Fortnam g. Mason Ltd,
of Piccadilly in London.
Happily, Adele wasn't
asked by anyone in the Wash
ington audience to furnish
a pattern for a cowl collar"
as did one woman who seWed
her own.
"I couldn't give her a pat
tern, but I did tell her that
a cowl cut in crepe, chiffon,
or wool is going to fall diff
ferently so maybe I was of
some help" the little woman,
who makes a lot of fashion
sense, told us.

Women Faces
Second Assault
CHARGE Since Auq.

About 2:33 am, December 30
st. Paul police officers John
Opheim and Joseph Matz found
Claude Brown. 40, of 585 Carroll
lying on the curb at Dale and lyle
hart with a stab wound in his left
shoulder. He told investigating Of
ficers the wound had been inflict-
ed by Ruthie Lee Hammonds, 46,
at her home, 626 Iglehart. The ex-
PLANTATION given by Brown was
that they had had an argument.
Ruthie Hammonds was ques-
toned at her home by detectives
Gerald Hanggi and Gerald Bodine
and she stated she and Brown
were playing cards in her home
when a quarrel started and he
struck her.
Ruthie said she retaliated by
jabbing him with a butcher knife.
She further stated her leg was
broken previously and in the melee
it was injured again. She was re-
leased in order to obtain treatment
from her private physician in view
of the victims reluctance to prose-
cute.
She will be recalled to the Homi-
eide Division at a later date.
Ruthie also faces a second de-
gree assault charge in the shoot
ing of David Strawder on August
81 at her home. That case is con-
tinued until January 10.
