CHARMING LITTLE
RUNABOUT FROCK
PATTERN 9333
The whole Fabric world echoes
with the words “Shantung,”—"Linen"
—“Pique.” The whole Fashion
world reflects “femininity” In Its
styling, even when the styling Is de
cldedly Tallored! So take a cue, and
combine the two! For the casual lit-
tle runabout frocks you need so
many of, Pattern 9333 is the Right
Answer. Charming in its simplicity,
the yoke becomes a slashed excuse
for a sleeve and a note of femininity
is reflected In the simple bodice by
means of front and back tucks. The
clever detail of belt and pocket sub-
tly conforms with the yoke styling.
Choose novel crystal, wood or cork
buttons.
Pattern 9333 may be ordered only
in sizes 12, 14, 18, 18, 20, 30, 32, 34,
86, 38 and 40. Size 16 requires 3%
yards 36 inch fabric.
SEND FIFTEEN CENTS In colns

NUMBER and SIZE.

ENATOR HUEY LONG, the Loulsl
ana Kingfish, made a tremendous
effort to keep the senate from adopt
ing the resolution extending the skele-
. tonlized NRA until
next April, but falled.
Advocating an amend
ment offered by Sen
ator Gore, which
would have required
senate confirmation of
all executive officials
drawing more than
$4000 a year, thus
disrupting the patron
age machine, Huey
started on a filibuster,
For nearly 16 hours,
with occasional help from Senators
Schall and McCarren, he kept the up
per house in session, pouring forth a
continuous stream of discourse that
ranged from the necessity of preserv-
ing the Constitution down to recipes
for fried oysters and pot-likker. He
attacked the President and the admin
istration generally, called the NRA
“the pational racketeers’ association,”
told stories about his uncle, read from
the Bible and Victor Hugo, stalked
about the chamber waving his arms
and croaking as his volce weakened,
and now and then took a bite of cheese
and a sup of cold coffee. All In all,
Huey put on a show that kept not only
the senators but a big crowd of visi
tors up all night. He was continually
heckled by his angry fellow solons but
always had a smashing retort.
At last the senate broke down the
filibuster, rejected the Gore amend
ment and passed the extension resolu-
tion by a vote of 41 to 13. One
change, to tighten up the antitrust
laws, suggested by Borah, was made,
so the resolution was sent back to the
house for concurrence. In (its final
form it continues the recovery adminis
tration without codes but with author.

business men desling only with col

bor and prohibition of trade practices
already outlawed by statute,
The house had previously adopted
the resolution by a wote of 201 to 121,
only a few Democrats standing with
the Republicans against It
Immediately after the house had
acted, It was announced at the White
House that Donald Richberg would re
tire as chairman of the practically
dead NRA on June 16, and that Pres
{dent Roosevelt had accepted his res
ignation “with great reluctance,” and
with assurances of his “affectionate
regard.”

N THE “platform” adopted by the
grass roots conference these govern:
mental policies were advocated:
1. The immediate adoption of a
policy of economy and thrift in gov.
ernment with due allowance for essen
tial relief expenditures as opposed to
the present spending policy of waste
and extravagance.
2. The prompt attalnment of a bal
anced budget, not by the misleading
method of double bookkeeping, but by
the honest method of bringing the ex-
penses of the government within the
limits of its income.
3. A sound currency based on gold
and definitely stabilized by congress so
that individual enterprise may have
confidence In the future value of the
dollar, in terms of which every man's
plans for his present or future must
necessarily be made.
4 The Immediate withdrawal of
government from competition with pri-
vate Industry.
5. The maintenance of the vitality
and free growth of American indus
try through the preservation of the
competitive system protected against
monopoly by the vigorous enforcement
of anti-trust laws, so that small busi
nesses may be preserved and the door
of equal opportunity kept open to all
6 The rigid enforcement of all
laws, civil and eriminal, to prevent
and punish dishonest or unfalr prac
tices In business, Industry, and finance,
7. National recognition of the needs
of agriculture. Agriculture is a funda-
mental industry of the United States

falr and proportionate part of the
national {ncome and to receive a parity

10. Continued protection to farm
and home ownership, and continued
provision, In co-operation with state
and local governments, for those that
are in need until private enterprise
absorbs the present army of the un
employed.
Senator Robinson, majority leader of
the senate, speaking before the Arkan
gas Pharmaceutical association, sald
of this:
“The only constructive suggestion
made in addition to those which ate
embraced {n the Roosevelt administra.
tion policies Is the often repeated de
mand for the balancing of the budget,
The budget cannot be Immediately
balanced unless the various forms of
relief now being carried on be aban
doned. This cannot be done just now
without danger to millions of our peo-
ple who have yet been unable to obtaln
employment.”
YES totaling $475,000,000 would
go out of existence before July 81
if not extended, so a resolution con
tinuing them two years was being hur
ried through the house in accord with
the wish of the President. Among them
are the 8-cent postage and the 1-cent-a-

ARFARE between Paraguay and
Bolivia In the Gran Chaco, which
has been going on for three years,
came to an end after representatives
of the two nations signed an armistice
agreement in Buenos Alres. The truce
was the result of conferences between
representatives of Paraguay, Bolivia
and six neutral nations—the United
States, Brazil, Argentina, Peru, Chile
and Uroguay. An attempt will now be
made to settle the disputes by direct
negotiations. If these fall the World
court at The Hague will be called on
to render judgment. The war in the

“They have demonstrated that when
