DON'T 'MAKE OVER' CHILD
BEFORE TEATIME VISITORS
If you allow your children to come
In for grown-up afternoon tea don't
make them the center of attraction.
It is embarrassing for them and for
tlie outside visitors. Have them
speak nicely to the vlstors and then
partake of some toothsome bit of
refreshment. : Do not discuss nem
before visitors. Children hav a
vague feeling that this Is disloyal.

Airy Tulle And
Sheer Organdy
Are Popular
' By Itlla Ferris
(Associated Press Fashion Editor)
PARIS VP) Butterfly gowns of
airy tulle and sheer organdy are be
ing worn by the smartest Parisians as
a new note In summer evening ele
gance.
Designed " with niched shoulder
lines and skirts trimmed with ruffles,
they recall the frivolous frocks of
grandmother's day. The bodices of
the . gowns are generally cut with
round decolletes finished with double
ruches of fabric of feathers .at the
.shoulder line. Skirts fit closely about
the hips.
White A Favorite
White Is among the favorites 'for
the new frocks. The Comtesse Herve
Chandon de Brlallles wears a white
tullo gown having a skirt trimmed
with narrow tulle frills and a bodice
finished with a shoulder ruche of the
same fabric. Princess Amedee de Bro
glle wears a frock of fine white or
gandie embroidered In a floral de
sign of black threads, the decollete
of which is outlined with frills of
the fabric, while Lady petering has
chosen a white tulle frock worn with
a little cape of the same material,
slack Also Popular
Black Is another popular hue. The
Comtesse Elle de Oanay attended a
recent gala fete wearing a black tulle
frock having a flounced shoulder line
and a skirt trimmed with ruffles be
low the kneellne. i '
Since the frocks are too frail to
support the weight of the regulation
evening wrap, most smart Parisians
wear with them little capes Or scarfs
of the same material.
Few Jewels accompany' the cos
tumes, their wearers depending on
the elaborate butterfly effect of the
frocks for their distinction.

FARMER'S COSTS
GO DOWN PRICE
OF PRODUCTS UP
By Frank I. Weller ' -.
(Associated Press Farm Editor)
WASHINGTON T) Doubled-bar-
rclled action in the price field moved
farm products toward! parity witn
non-agricultural commodities during
the second quarter of 1933. -
Charts prepared by the department
of aviculture show:
1. The general, average of prices
paid by farnrs moved down to the
pre-war level.
2. Prices received by farmers ad
vanced, ' whereas a normal trend
would have been toward a seasonal
decline.
Tht farmer Is getting more for his
crcjps and paying out relatively less
for tne tmngs ne ouys. attnougn miu
rat has not reached the evmi high
er proportion In favor of the farmer
Which has been set by the adminis
tration, m
The Goal May Shift
This parity would be reachojJ soon
er if the prices farmers pay should
go below -the pre-war level. Should
they bounce up, pre-war prices re
ceived by farmers no longer juld
represent pre-war purchasing power,
and farm prices might have to be
advanced farther.
The gain in farm buying pver is
shown by the following index table
in whlgi 100 represents the 1910-14
average:
Item Feb. -33 May '33
All farm prices n 49 , 62
Grain 34 . 62

Dairy Products 62 63
Prices farmers' paid (Jp4 100
Farm buying power 47 62
All wholesale prices f$ 93
The May IndcQ figure for all farm
prices represents a 26 per cent in
crease over tha o'f February and
theocctically adds $1,352,000,000 to
the purchasing pov.gr of the 1032 to

Miriam Jordan
Drops Dignity;
Now Plain Mimi
HOLLYWOOD Miriam Jordan,
aloof, dignified and very lady-like
English blonV, has been thrown Into
the cinematic discard by Ml mi Jor
dan, capricious hoyden.
Miml's first step in the overthrow
of Miriam was to have Miriam's long
golden tresses shorn Into a winsome
golden bob. Her second was to re
place Miriam's seeming cold reserve
with Miml's sparkle.
The transformation, for screen
purposes, 1b complete. There Is as
much difference between Miriam
and Mlmi as there Is In the names.
Too Much The Lady
"Long hair," explained Mlmi,
"mode me too much the lady on the
screen. I was typed . as the chilly
blond, for what reason I don't know.
I have a sense of humor, and I saw
no reason for hiding It. With long
hair I was doomed to be the lady;
with bobbed hair I can still play the
lady, but I won't be banned from
other roles."
rit Mlmi, like Miriam, continues
to pursue her solitary way through
the romantic rumor-fraught gaiety
ol iiimiano. one nas a aeierminea
aultude against romantic rumors,
and Insists she would rather be
alone th&n run the risk of becoming
"engagecT' In the gossip columns.
And This Is Why
There Is a reason. Mlmi Is already
engaged. There's a young man In
New York. She doesn't tell his name.
"It Isn't fair to a man," she says,
"to use hln for movie mibllcltv. I
never will. When we get marrled,4
Viw leaving pictures. No, there lsn t
any date set. He wants me to have
my fling at a career before wo mar
ry." In Hollywood, when an actress Is
seen $ out." with a man twice, or even
once, romance rumors fly. Mlmi
wants none of them, 8kn dooBft't
vungio in the "best movio circles."
She Isn't interested In movio people.
"My friends are tiro people who

HITLER CABINET
MOVES TO HELP
GERMAN JOBLESS
Hy Tom Wllhelm
BERLIN VP) Plans for relieving
the unemployment situation ad
vanced bty previous governments
have been rolled Into one gigantic
measure by the Hitler cabinet In an
effort to pull Germany out of the
rut. .
Throughout the plan which, calcu
lates to spend) a billion marks, or
250.000,000, and put 1.350,000 men
back to work In. fields, factories and
offices, one may observe Bruenlng,
von Papen and von Schleicher, all
of whom busied themselves with the
same problem.
Unemployment Cut Claimed
Broadly speaking the plan Is based
dn two: theses, lightening of the
debt and tax burdens through vari
ous means, and stimulation of busi
ness by means of treasury loans to
groups, Individuals and municipali
ties.
The Hitler administration claims
that thus far. It has, brought down
the number of unemnloved to fi.000.-
000, roughly a million less than the
high point this winter and some
1,000 less than the low of last year.
The 1,000,000,000 marks will be
amortized! through budget levies over
the next five years.
Replacements Reduce Taxes
Tax exemptions will be allowed
for various machinery replacements
ln-factortes, as long as the purchases
are made within Germany.
Funds will be put at the disposal
of water and electricity works for
extension of their services and to
municipalities and . districts which
will use the money for improvement
of canals, subways and publio build
ings. These latter loans will be In
terest free, but other loans will bear
'a nominal rate.
Frlta Relnhardt, state secretary In
the ministry of finance, estimates
'that the plan will absorb 1,350,000
persons from the floating supply, of
unemployed workers. He Indicated
that additional laws would be pro
mulgated by the cabinet from time
to time as conditions warrant.
Embraced In the blanket law are
proposals whereby tax evaders, un
til October 1 of this year, may avoid
the risk of jail sentences and fines.
A tax evader whose conscience
bothers him may go to his lawyer
and pay tlie amount of the evasion.
Thereupon the lawyer sends It in
his own name to the finance depart
ment and receives a receipt. This
receipt 'la a guarantee against future
prosecution,
The government said this would
be the last amnesty for tax dodgers.
Private funds established to al
leviate the lot of the unemployed
may be deducted in their entirety
