GAY FRENCH GIRLS
SET STYLE COPIED
AMERICAN MADE
LONDON. Aur. S, That street
walkers of Paris nro getting thu
styles for tho women and girls of
America, and that tli latter aro un
wittingly following these styles be
cnuso they are Paris rowns Is th-i
conclusion reached by Uudolpii Tony,
editor of the "Garment llevlew " oC
Chicago, who after several erkl
spcclat study of styles In Paris, sailed
today for Now York.
"It took me Just about two diy.t In
Paris to get at tho root of thli wild
orgy en dlihablllo In which u m.uiy
perfectly respectable women a.o In
dulging." said Cony today. "The
dcml:nondalnc8 of Paris aro dlctat
ting the Mjlea to use, and the hired
models of the great dressmaking
firms nro helping tho women of tho
Pnltcd States along to what, if tho
crate continues, wilt end in practical
nudity provided the weather Isn't
too cold.
"Here Is tho way It werks: A buy
er goes to Paris looking for some
thing new and novel. What be par
ticularly wants Is something dutlnc
tlvely Parisian, so when he sees r.
potty woman In the Hue de la Patx, at
Longchamps, or some 'such place,
wearing n strange but exceedingly
daring gown, probably spill half way
to tho whist and showing the wom
an's form as plainly as if sho woru
i wore tights, only, he Immed
iately makes -jotc of l.n 'tr n. Then
he sees other gowns wliltU revel'
'even more of the wearer's form than
tho spilt skirt, and not knowing that
these langerous, apparently wealth
women are merely members of ths
underworld, he gets his Ideas to
gether, goes to a designer nnd hat
his ideas worked out.
What will bo the end of this orgy?
America will set her own styles. It
won't be in a day but It Is bound to
come. It may not como for twenty
years unless tho present tendency'
to halt nakednex on the part of our
women continues. It would only
take halt as long ir the tendency next
year Is to go a little better or rath
er a little worse In tho matter of ex
hibiting parts of tho female form
which bavo hitherto remained con
cealed. "It Isn't always daring styles which
will hurry tho time when America
sets own modo of dress. Tho nidi
cons harem skirt of sonio years back
was a Paris blunder which set thtf
tlmo up tivo years. There Is really
no reason why America shouldn't
set the styles. Wo do it in shoes and
clothes. No well dressed Freshman
wears English shoes now and few of
them wear English suits.
"Tho wholo attitudo of American
women toward French styles, Is rt
foolish one. If they would sit down
and analyso the question and were
fair with themselves and the Ameri
can designers and makers, they
would see bow perfectly ridiculous
they sometimes make themselves."

TO TEST
TO
ALIENS
SAN FRANCISCO, Cnl., Aur. 8.
Through former United States
District Attorney John L. McNub,
Hari Singh, u Hindu graduato of
Edinburgh university, today has an
nounced liis intention of testing
whether the president, by executive
order, can bnr any c1ii.sk of aliens,
as a nice, from entering tlio United
Stntes. It is expected tho case fin
ally will be enrried to tlio United
Stntes supreme court. It will be
brought up first beforo the commis
sioner of immigration nnd the de
partment of labor.
Action is to he based on tho ex
ecutive order recently issued by
Immigration Commissioner General
Cuminelti ordering the deportation
of twenty-five Hindus held at Angel
Island hero. The detained Hindu
arrived hero mostly from the Phil
ippines, mid they will be deported
unless hnbeus corpus proceedings
are instituted by McNub or'othor ac
tion taken to pi event tlio carrying
out of Cuiiiiiirtii's order.
"Jf it is possible for tlio president
to bnr ulicns in this manner, such
ns the order relating to (huso Jilii
Auk," said McNub today, "thru an
order ciiii Ijo issued prohibiting
Frenchmen, Ilaliaiis, I'ngllblimoii or
those of any oilier rnru from stor
ing thU country, Is a fiicllwi if
tlio president Iiiim nuy sucli power of

Willi Mvdford (ratio Is Mud ford mude,
CHICAGO. Aug. 8.- Willi lite
eoniinir of the full term of lite Chi
cago public ehool lint n few weeks
distant, Superintendent Kiln Fluirg
Young admitted today Hint she w
made no definite selection of the
men uud women who are lo citiduet
elates in the new "peioiml puritv"
course to be launched in the Chi
cncii high school. She will call a
conference of high school principals
within n week lo hear suggestions.
"We feel that we have taken u
radical. almot n revolutionary "tcp,
in adopting the personal purity
course in Chicago,'' said Mr.
Young. "We realise that other eit
ie will cloelv watch the working
out of the venture nnd will take it
up if Chicago U snece.ful. We
who have advocated thi course feel
certain of snece, which will menu
that in another generation ftile and
prudwli standard will bo swept
away with Hip proper trniiiiuc of
children. We will be careful in man
ping out our coure nnd In chooing
our instructor!, for we want to be
certain of our ground before we go
nhend."
Applications for position n in
structors have come lo the office of
Mrs. Young from score of phvie
inns, men nnd women. While Hip
teacher will he recruited largely
from member. of the medical pro
fession. Mr. Young declared today
that careful personal investigation
i being mnde to determine the phy
sicians who are most competent t
dieu sex questions before high
school pupils.
"Many physicians and scientific
men," she said, "hnve their sene of
delicacy blunted hv the yen nature
of their work. Their pyehilogv is
too far removed from that of the
child. Their minds move in n dif
ferent sphere nnd their filnes will
be determined not nlone on their
standing n physicians, hut also on
their understanding and tact in
handling delicnte subjects so that
we can avoid at the start nny shock
to the young boys nnd girl. We
must hnve instructors who can meet
the pupils' mind properly.
"Of course there will he segrega
tion. Hoys will be taught by male
instructors nnd girls will have wo
men instructors. The classes will be
divided into small groups smnll
enough for the instructors to obtain
tho personal, confidential effect.
"Thero will be no text books no
printed matter that might be subject
to wrongful interpretation, or nny
interpretation nt nil by the pupil
who nro at n formative nge. In
struction will bo solely by lectures.
But we will expect pupils to nsk
questions in class groups. If the
course is successful in the high
schools we may institute a course
fit for the grade schools. At firnt
we shall present only n limited view
of the course. Within u few weeks
we hope Hint the boys and girls will
como to accept instruction in sex
questions with no different attitude
than Hint which they might hold to
instruction in algebra. Wo believe
firmly this will come. When thev
arrive nt that slnte of mind tho
courso will be broadened and made
thorough."
