New York, May 1C Though much is said and written about tho super iority of Imported gowns, a compar ative study of Paris and New Tork fashions Bhows Gotham's creations to no disadvantage whatever. Indeed, one smart matron whose summer wardrobe had Just arrived Is really lamenting the fact that her outfit sur passes her neighbor's American-made gowns only In price and French trade mark. ,, , This, of course, speaks well for American taBte and Ingenuity, which seems to have reached the climax in this soaonn's mndost summer coats. which are by no means new, for we have had them in pongee, vlole, etamlne, taffeta and cloth, but i.. nnraiir In thin direction bceears description.

At either side of the front the skirt o; the coat is slashed to n depth or nine Inches, the Incision being laoe bordered and finished at the top with tr.ssels or silk and chiffon.
