American Women Said Cause
Of French Fashion Changes
By ELIZABETH TOOMEY
United Press Correspondent
New York (U.R) Without
American women French design
ers could not change fashion so
regularly.
We buy the "audacious" styles
in a Paris collection, Hubert de
Givenchy says. So do Italian
women. But the French women
choose tlic conservative clothes
that resemble last year's.
Givenchy is one of the top 10
Parisien designers, although he
is only 29 years old and looks
like an American college basket
ball player. He towers 6 feet, and
wears collegiate tweed jackets
with casual slacks.
Big Show

show his entire spring collection

at a 5100-a-ticket fashion show.
His opinions on clothes are
stated in a mixture of French
and English and with the calm
assurance of a successful busi
nessman in any field.
"American and Italian women
stimulate designers to do new
things." Givenchy said' in an in
terview. "When I am designing
I keep in mind more the Amer
ican woman than the French
woman."
His clothes are noted for their
youthful style, yet Givenchy said
he designes with the mature
woman in mind . because young
women aren't interesting to a
designer.
"They have had no life," he
said. "If you design for them it
would be too simple."
Since American and Italian
women determine which new
styles will become popular, we
asked Givenchy what he pre
dicted we would choose for our
future.
"The shape of the future is the
easy line that does not mold the
figures," he said without hesita
tion. "Everybody will adjust it
to her own figure. It is not shape
less. It follows the body line but
does not constrain it."
The reason we'll go for the
loose-waisted dresses isn't very
flattering, according to the boy
ish designer. He says the ma
jority of women "do not have a
beautiful shape." The loose fit
ting dress, properly adapted to
each' figure, can make women
look taller and slimmer.

Doctor Says Research
Key to Health Problems
Research is the key to the world's unsolved medical and
health problems according to Dr. J. Corwin Hinshaw, well known
California physician who spoke for the annual meeting of Jack
son County Public Health association yesterday noon. It was held
at the Jackson hotel, with Mrs. Henry Padgham presiding and
Mrs. Allan Perry introducing the speaker.

tion's noted specialists in di
seases of the chest, stated that in
spite of the great strides made
in conquering infectious di
seases, much remained to be
done in other fields and that
more and more research will
provide the answer. He added
that finances should be no bar
rier, that the main trouble is a
lack of qualified investigators.
The average medical doctor,
trained to . treat the sick, has
little time for. excursions into
the unknown, Dr. Hinshaw said,
and added that much valuable
information which these men
learn in the course of their prac
tices is lost to the world when
they die.
All qualified and trained
scientists with ideas and prob
lems for research should be
given the time and facilities to
work on these, Dr. Hinshaw said,
and further- declared that pub
lic funds should be provided for
this. "We should subsidize the
students and not the schools,"
he added.
Dr. Hinshaw praised the work
of groups such as the Jackson
County Public Health associa
tion, and said that education
should be the prime objective
of such organizations. News
papers and magazines are the
chief means of spreading infor
mation on health, the speaker
said, and added that these two
media have improved a great
deal in recent years as far as
this type of material is con
cerned.
Ethics Changed
The speaker further said that
the medical profesison has "com
pletely changed its code of
ethics" in the matter of public
appearances and cooperation
with lay groups such as public
health associations, and said
that no longer than 15 years ago
doctors were discouraged from
speaking to lay groups in the
manner that he was doing.
Dr. Hinshaw predicted that
the time was not far away when
pathology would be taught, in
high school or colleges and said
this "would largely do away
with quacks," since the general
public would have - knowledge
which would make their exist
ence virtually impossible.
The speaker said early in his
talk that the health and welfare
of the people in the United
States is "better attended to'
than that of any other people
anywhere at any time in history.
"Our system is superior, he
said, and added that in our
efforts to improve the health of
the nation,: "we should hot tam
per with; the system."
Infectious diseases are the
bane of mankind in almost every
country but the United States,
he said. Chief among these is
tuberculosis, Dr. Hinshaw de
cleared, and emphasized that
five per cent of the people of
the worldv have tuberculosis.
The reason the record of the
United States is better than
other countries is due largely to
the effort of "such organizations
as this," he said.
In stressing that tuberculosis
is still the number one prob
lem among infectious diseases,
Dr. Hinshaw said TB is lareelv
preventable. The speaker gave
figures about tuberculosis, say
ing that TB patients- in San
Francisco's hospital for the indi
gent number as many as all
other patients combined. Some
who know they have the di
sease resist treatment, Dr. Hin
shaw added, and said that one
third of the TB patients in vet
eran hospitals leave before they
are completely cured and
against the advice of their doc
tors, thus . becoming patential
spreaders of the disease.
Compares Figures
: Comparing . tuberculosis fig
ures with those of other diseases,
Dr. Hinshaw said that deaths
from - heart-disease were de
plorable only in so far as they
are preventable and ' control!,
able, and added that the increas
ing number of deaths from heart
trouble is in reality an index to
the extended span of life in this
nation. When the vascular di-

seases and cancer are control
led, "we may be able to deter
mine what the natural span of
life should be," he said.
Dr. Hinshaw discussed some
of the economic aspects of death,
remarking that "it is a mistake
to believe that productivity of
man needs to end at 65."
Considering causes of death
other than disease, Dr. Hinshaw
spoke of the large number of
death from, motor accidents and
said these are greater than
deaths from tuberculosis. He
said that, now many studies are
now being made on the causes
of death in auto accidents and
pointed to the fact that this
year there is a new trend to
ward safety in automobile con
struction. Dr. Hinshaw also spoke of
alcoholism, saying the highest
per capita consumption of liquor
in the United States is in Wash
ington, D.C., and the second
highest is in San Francisco. He
commented that the medical
profession and public health as
sociation have done little as yet
on the problems of alcoholism.
The speaker closed his talk by
saying that happiness and pro
ductivity are impossible- with
out health. He said he believed
that "freedom from contagious
diseases" should be added to the
various other freedoms which
people of this nation enjoy. "We
are entitled to clean food, clean
water and clean air air free
from germs," he said, "And I
believe public health groups
have much to contribute in the
program of improving the health
of the nation."
Mrs. Padgham conducted the'
annual business meeting of the
association, and officers were
elected, A large audience heard
Dr. Hinshaw and took part in
the meeting. The Rev. Thomas
McCamant offered prayer.
