A former chief of the bureau of foreijfii and domestic commerce, who is how manager of the marketing division of a huge corpora-' ion in New York, made the somewhat startling assertion i hat the American public no longer obsequiously accepts ! wua. t the overlonlshii) of Paris in creation of style. i 't .1,1 . i-Yom the situation here revealed there is needed but i ' one step forward to achieve absolute American freedom in j (.ilo.i.lc urt f dress design. That that freedom ought to exist UjSin a country with a $l,5iK,(00,000 dress industry, which' . - is yet only in its infancy, goes without saying. A survey; .- -recently made shows that tho industry is becoming less seasonal in character and that large economies in produc tion are therefore possible. There is also evident a growing . .viViflisposition on the part of women throughout the country to accept American ready-made dresses. : While the dress industry in the United States is car- j lied on on a grand scale, it has hitherto been on a rather j precarious footing, caused by the rapid change in styles, j whereby the life of a particular model of garment may be t limited to five or six weeks. This precariousness and un I certainty naturally had to hand-to-mouth buying on the ..part of retailers and a similar policy on the part of the , manufacturer in the matter of purchasing materials. In .',itheir own interest and for the sake of national thirft J the producers of dresses and dress mafcrials rnight to set - their faces against those kaleidoscopic changes of style to "i which we have of late grown accustomed. -rr- ..";' v.jj N was mw;wWr oo that b; L-".'- v I" "i -.. yvkhuwauf -Jf.

Their Loss Is Heavy The Japanese have fixed the loss of life in the earth quake at about 2 ir,()(K). This (loo:; not tell the whole story, however. The injured, the families broken up are factors to be added tttdiwvuiinjwi v 'vb) of the Iosh and necesftarily thoy must' incicase the total. There must in the very na ture of the case be an additional loss from shattered morale. Such n calamity could not be experienced and leave all the survivors unaffected psychologically. Not less potent than; shell-shock to unsettle nerves would He the experience which I many thousands underwent yet escaped with their lives.! .'The property loss is another matter and that can he j retrieved in time. With astonishing zeal the people have set to work to rebuild their homes. To restore normal livlntr conditions will be a matter of time. The means by which a vast portion of the population have earned a liveli hood have been destroyed and must be restored. Thus the luiisettlcment has wide ramifications and presents an enorm ous problem in rebuilding. In the meantime there must be readjustments in nnlW that the rehabilitation may proceed. The lack of indications of discouragement and the energy with which the Japanese have set about retrieving their Ifinancial loss commands the admiration of the world. be lit'id at their banking rooms on Tin sthiy, January 8th, at ten n'cloek o. in., for the purpose of eb't-tiiif; a Dourd of Directors for the emiuiittf year and for the trans action of any othr business that may come, before th meHlnp.

Kvery notary Ktiliserihinjr to the constitution is IhiuikI to sulisciilie to the eie.hteenlh aniendinent. The nllenipted tlistinction in the validity or sacredness of por tions of the constitution is a blunder on the part of the authorities piesci iliin;;- the oath.
