Fashion's Censor is
Removed From Hips,
Hourglass Now In
NEW YORK, August 22. Fashion's
censorship host been removed from
hips! Once more the fashionable
glass of the hour will . reflect the
hour-glass figure.: Not exactly the
full hour-glass of prc-chemise frock
days but at least, a half hour glass.
Curves bofh concave and convex where
they should be according to Nature
will once a pa in be according to Fash
Jon also.
To look as nearly like a pencil as
possible will no longer be the acme
of feminine heart's desire.
We have been cut on the straight
and narrow so long that it is going to
be some job to get back Into our softly
feminine mid-Victorian curves again
but it if always much easier to let out
than to take in provided the material
is there
Xow the arms are allowed at large
untrammeled by restricting sleeves
and short skirts have emancipated
our underti immings it seems only fair
and just that our long stayed hips
should be given the freedom of the
i sees.
As forerunners of the hips return
fthe side ruffles, panniers, puffs and
draperies on the new fall skirts are
;but a few of the infallible signs to
'show which way the new fall figure
jtends td curve.
f Increased fullness in the skirts as
well makes for a fuller silhouette and
increased brevity proves the long and
j short of it is that Paris is winner In
the little same of skirts, that has been
waged all season between the Yan
kee and the Gallic modistes.
i Naturally hip curves means also
bust curves and a regular .indented
Farewell ye out-going, straight lines,
welcome ye incoming curves! The
' double-chinned, umply hipped sister
hood greet you and now once more
that poetic little phrase, "get on to her
curves" will have some meaning.
Fund to I'iMht Xttiin,
i WASHINGTON, Aug. 22. Included
in the additional $1,500,000 asked of
congress yesterday by Attorney Oen
jeral Palmer to push tho 'campaign
against profitteers and food hoarders
is a fund for enforcement of wartime
prohibition.
At the department of justice today
it was said that it would be impossible
to estimate what portion of the fund
yuld be used in this way.
"We can't tell how long we are go
ing to be intrusted with prohibition
enforcement," said an official. "If
the bill now pending in congress goes
through, enforcement will be left to
a prohibition commissioner under tho
treasury department.
"It would bo a .difficult matter,
therefore, to determine what part of
the $1,500,000 fund would be expanded
in this particular part of the work. An
operative of the bureau of invest Ra
tion may be working on some case and
run into a violation of the prohibition
laws. It would be his duty to either
pursue tho investigation or report it
and. let another agent get assigned to
it. We can only take care of nil
cases by having a lump sum which
provides for the investigation und de
tection of crimes '
