Sack Style
Becomes
High Style
By GAY PAULEY
United Press Correspondent
New York (IP) This week
in Manhattan:
The Paris sack and the feed
sack came together in a rare
type of fashion show at a local
hotel. High style designers
turned their skills to "farmer"
fabrics as a feature of the fifth
annual national cotton bag sew
ing contest.. Number one sil
houette was the chemise, or sack,
in a variety of paisley and floral
prints. Ten thousand women
entered the contest, co-sponsored
by the National Cotton
council and the Necchi Sewing
Machine Company.
The three finalists, each of
whom won a week in Manhat
tan and a new sewing machine,
were Mrs. Fred Sowers, Winston-Salem,
N.C., Mrs. Harold
Vestal, Niangua, Mo., and Mrs.
Carl Arnton, Columbia Heights,
Minn.
One stenographic equipment
concern, Underwood, has come
out with a "light bulb" which
bends, and predicts homes of
the future will have window
shades, draperies and other
furnishings which light up at
the touch of a button.
The forecast came from Wes
tinghouse, which this week in
troduced an electro-luminescent
bulb. This means, explained the
company, that sheets of glass,
metal or plastic can be made
to produce light by application
of a coat of phosphor. When
power is turned on, the, phosphor
glows.
It was bound to happen . . .
The bubble gum industry
moved in on Sputnik. One
manufacturer packages the gum
in a box featuring spacemen,
satellites and a beep-beep signal.
The manufacturer dispatched a
shipment of bubble gum to Ni
kita Khrushchev, with a note
suggesting that the Russian boss
try "blowing about this Sputnik
for a change."

All-Woman Investment House
In Chicago Only One in U.S.
Chicago (IP Diamonds may
be a girl's best friend, but one
Chicago woman thinks interest
bearing securities bring better
returns.
Mrs. Lorraine Blair, a small
bundle of feminine energy, has
put her theory to work by open
ing what she believes is the only
all-woman investment house in
the nation.
Mrs. Blair has spent 30 years
opening to women the doors of
investment houses in Chicago's
LaSalle Street canyon of busi
ness. Twenty-two years ago she be
gan to worry about the lack of
concern financial houses showed
for women who wanted to make
investments. To combat this she
started the non-profit Woman's
Finance Forum of America.
"There were hundreds of
clubs talking to women about
art, science and literature," said
Mrs. Blair, "But no one was tell
ing them about the foundation
for all their culture s o u n d
finance."
Her new broker-dealer office
has a staff of five women direc-

garments.
tors, eight saleswomen and a
five-girl office.
The firm hopes to save wom
en from such financial ills as
worthless stock, sick bank ac
counts and flat wallets.
Strangely enough, said Mrs.
Blair, about 30 per cent of her
first clients have been men.
As for the women, Mrs. Blair
said that from one to 14 they
need good health; from 14 to 40,
good looks; from 40 to 60 per
sonality and charm; and after
60, cash.
She gracefully declines to tell
which age category she is in.
In reply to questions on how
it feels to be starting a career at
an age when most people are

thinking of retirement. Mrs.
Blair talks with the zeal of an
evangelist.
"Women own most of the na
tion's wealth. They spend most
of the earned income. They con
trol the education of the chil
dren and on top of that they
have more leisure time than
men. It's time someone told
them the financial facts of life,"
she said.
Balance Is Best
Mrs. Blair tells women not to
be bashful about questioning
their husbands on such matters
as the location of safety deposit
boxes, family stocks and bonds,
insurance, wills and the prob
able size of the estate in event
of death.
She also has some ideas on
building and maintaining an es-

tate. As a rule of thumb she sug
gests 25 per cent of the income
for shelter, 25 per cent for food,
15 per cent for clothing, 12V2
per cent of savings and 10 per
cent for upkeep.
"That leaves women 12 per
cent for everything else," she
said with a smile.
She also said women should
keep a reserve of at least two
months income easily acessible
as a "shock absorber."
After that, she suggested, a
woman is ready to invest.
A balanced program of insur
ance, bank savings, government
bonds, investment trusts, real
estate and stocks, both common
and preferred, is the best plan
for a woman, according to Mrs.
Blair.
Women shouldn't invest in
common stocks unless they are
prepared to lose, she said, but
this adds "spice" to finance.
As a final word, Mrs. Blair
said, "What I learned was from
experience and if I learned
other women can also."
