House of Dior Fall Fashions
Feature Willow Silhouette
By MARY PRIME
United Press Inttrnational
New York - (OPD - This year,
even the House of Christian
Dior has returned to "nor
malcy" in fashion.
Yves St. Laurent, the head
designed since Uior's death,
has kept waistlines and bust
lines natural. Shoulders are
slightly wider and rounded,
but not exaggerated or pad
ded. Not even the hemline is
too long or too short. It hit
Wz incheS longer than last
fall, giving a balanced, grace
ful look to the figure.
Suit jackets in many
lengths were shown today at
the preview of the Dior-New
York collection, one of 60 col
lections shown this week by
the New York Couture group,
The trend was to longer
jackets were double-breasted
Skirts were mostly slim 'and
unpleated.
Necklines of both suits and
coats included the collarless
type. Fur ascots were tucked
in these necklines.
Coats ranged from loose for
wearing over suits to slim
Some had half-belts at the
back, and were either single
or double-breasted.
A narrow inset of fabric
defined the natural waist of
dresses, giving the dress a
fitted look without a belt. Sev
eral such dresses with one-
inch insets had wide, crushed
leather belts, some almost
commerbund width.
Newest sleeve treatment is
the "shirt sleeve" - which
looks like a French cuff of a
shirt but comes above the
wrist, or bracelet length. It
was used on coats and suits.
Some late day and cocktail
dresses had the belled skirt
of the old "new look," even
to petticoats underneath. Sev
eral had gay little jackets.
St. Laurent called the sil
houette the "willow"-which
emphasizes "suppleness of line
and freedom of motion, never
cluttered with superfluous de
tail." Ball gowns had a floating
movement attributed to the
"willow look," and also in
cluded portrait gowns.
.Here are highlights of other
collections:
Jane Derby - this designer
showed a variety of silhou
ettes: sheath, shirtwaist,
Dutch boy. Suits, cocktail
dresses, and evening gowns
had detachable skirts. Cum
merbunds, lace, and rhine
stone nail heads were import
ant. One black velvet, full
length gown had chinchilla
sleeves. .
Another gown, in lilac, was
studded with rhmestones and
came with a matching wool
coat, lined with rhinestones.
Brocades and lames turned
up in evening costumes. One
slim, angle-length gown was
made of gold and topaz silk
damask lame, belted and
teamed with a caramel silk
satin stole.
Ben Gershel - This collec
tion,1 designed by Robert
Knox, featured fitted suits
with pleated or eased-out
skirts, man-tailored jackets
cut straight - and narrow to
the hip, and . dressed-up polo
coats.

Learning huw to ask is one of
the great arts of hvinz. I believe.
For a person could have almost
anything he wanted, if he went
about it the right way. If s

not on what is asked of us
but upon the manner in which
it's done.
Donald Brooks-Silhouettes
ranged from military cardi
gan coats to dress with spiral
draped bodices and full-circle
skirts. Fabric snoods matched
some daytime outfits. In the
military line were wool twills

Furniture
Designed
For, Young
By MARGUERITE DAVIS
united Press International
Chicago (UPD A manufac
turer known for high-styled
inexpensive furniture is show
ing a new line designed and
priced for a young modern's
home.
Kroehler's "New Idea" col
lection of 60 pieces is keyed
to the greatest use in the
smallest space.
One of the prettiest and
most useful items in the col
lection is a four-in-one coffee
table, 5 feet long, 16 inches
inree walnut trays are nested
under the table. Folding legs
snap out to transform the
trays into snack tables. Each
has a black plastic toD which
is resisteant to heat, moisture
and stain (about $98).
Shown with the table is a
trim 86-inch sofa. Its foam
rubber cushions are slim, and
it rests on a walnut "stretch
er" designed to match the
table. (About $180; at 88 inch
es, opening into a double bed,
about $270).
Ia this reporter's opinion
chairs which tilt back into a
reclining position are too
bulky to be attractive in most
rooms. But the collection in
cludes one chair which re
duces that objection to a mini
mum. It measures 30 inches
long (about $90).
A hanzina walnut nanel
has brass strips intq which
tnree shelves and a two-drawer
unit fit (about $80). It can
- ' T '
be hung above a three-drawer
cnest (about $60) for a group
ing just 30 inches wide.
A low, round brunch table
stands onlv 25 inches hi eh
and is four feet in diameter.
A walnut rim circles a black
plastic center, providing a
table for eating or for card
games (about $80).

Miss Truman 'Settled Down'
But Not Yet 'Settled Back'
By GAY PAULEY
UPI Women's Editor
"New York (DPD Margaret
Truman says she has "settled
down but not settled back."
The daugh
ter of the for

man sat down
to . bring her
self up to date
for this re
porter,six weeks after
the birth of
Gay Pauley her second
son, William Wallace.
I asked her whether she was
going to call quits to her act
ing and singing career, now
that she and her husband,
Clifton Daniel Jr.,. have two
small sons underfoot.
"Certainly not," said the 35-year-old
Miss Truman. "I have
settled down, but I have not
settled back. I start a tour in
summer stock next month.
"Philosophy Hasn't Changed"
"My career p h i 1 o s o p h y
hasn't changed in. the three
years we've been married. I
take things as they come . '. .

proves. My husband and chil
dren come first."
She has done some tele
vision appearances since the

gust 3, at Nyack, N.Y., she will
open a four weeks tour of the
straw hat circuit in the play,
"The Happy Time."; .
"My cook and nurse, can
run things at the apartment,"
she said. "Clifton will be home
at nights and I will be home
on week ends." :
Miss Truman proudly an
nounced that older son Clifton
Two, named for his father, a
New York Times executive,
"is talking a blue streak. He
uses whole sentences. The oth

"Where's my scrambled.egg?"
The older boy. also shows
some of the musical ability of
his mamma, a soprano, and his
maternal grandfather, a piano

"He already beats time to

she "If he's going to look
like his father or brother, you
can't tell it yet. He's mostly
red and wrinkled."
The children will be brought
up on the same principle of
discipline with which Bess
and Harry Truman reared
Margaret.
"I definitely believe in
spanking, if a child disobeys,"
she said. "When I was a child,
it was mother who did the
spanking. She kept a hair
brush handy. All daddy had to
do was look."
Miss Truman said she and
her husband hope to keep
their boys out of the limelight
as' much as possible. She
doesn't even carry pictures of
them in her purse.
"But," she, added, "we find
a lot of people who are just

Administration Checking
Packaged Food for Weight
By LOUIS CASSELS
United Press International
Washington-(UPD-In the good old days, a housewife could
keep a beady eye on the scales while the grocer weighed
her purchase.
Today nearly all foods come in tidy containers, "pre
packed" at distant factories. The weight of the contents is
printed on the label, and the housewife has to take the manu
facturer's word for it.
How good is that word?
This question has .been
bothering the U.S. Food and
Drug Administration, the
Federal agency, which sees
that consumers get what they
pay for in food stores. Some
months ago, it ordered field
offices across the country to
examine typical batches of
food products from supermar
ket shelves for possible short
weighing. First results of this survey
are now in. Tne iUA. nnas
them "disturbing.". House
wives may, too. .
In one district, where 206
lots of various foods were
checked, FDA inspectors
found 39 lots were short
weight. That is 19 per cent,
or nearly, one out of- five.
Most shortages were rela
tively small-one or two per
cent less than the' proclaimed
weight. In some cases, pack
ages were as much as 25 per
cent under weight.? -
Of 35 different types of
food checked, the most con
sistently underweight were
coffee, ground spices, flour,
meals and mixes.
These figures come from
one FDA district. Results
from other districts still are
being computed, but prelim
inary indications are that
they conform to the general
pattern.
One product on which a
complete nationwide survey
has been made is flour. ' Of
94 different lots of flour, 19
were slightly short weight.
The FDA does not believe
food manufacturers are en
gaged in a wholesale conspir
acy to defraud consumers. It
does believe many packers
are "playing it safe" at the
consumer's expense.
John L. Harvey, assistant
FDA commissioner,' explained
that the food industry is
under "fierce competitive
pressure to work as close to
the declared weight as pos
sible."
Most food products today
are packed and distributed in
tremendous quantities, h e
said: If a package contains
even a slightly greater quan
tity than is declared on the
label, "the resulting economic
loss to the producer, when

production, becomes a truly

But this fact works both
ways, he pointed out.
"If each package contains
slightly, less than the declared
amount, consumers stand to
have a substantial sum taken
from them wrongfully."
Because short weights are.
usually UyO small to be de
tected reliably on home
scales,-, the individual con
sumer cannot do much to
remedy the situation. But
the FDA has alerted its field
weights and measures offic
ials to step up enforcement of
accurate weight regulations.
By law, FDA can seize any
product in interstate com
merce that is found to be mis-
labeled in any regard, includ
ing weight or volume of con
tents. Keep America Beautiful
