Jan. 17 oV The Dutch and the Indonesian republic signed a truce today In the warfare 1 that broke out Inst summer In Java, j Sumatra and Madoera. I The agreement was signed aboard the I'nlted States navy transport nenvllle anchored off Batavla. Endorsement of the truce cli maxed 11 weeks of negotiations by a good offices committee sent by the United Nations security council to try to bring pcarc In the Dutch East Indies. Political disagreements between tho Dutch and the republic started the war last July 20. when the Dutch army began what is called "police nctiun" against the Indo nesians The cose was brought before the United Nations, and the security council, urging both sides to settle their disputes, called upon Utem August 1 for a cease-fire effective three days latpr. They agreed to the cease-fire, but later each ac cused the other of violating it free ly. Subsequently the committee was set up. The truce agreement provides for a demilitarized jone based on a Dutch-drawn line and in effect gives the Netherlands at least tem porary control of the most produc tive areas of Java and Sumatra.

PAItIS, Jan. 17 oPi Paris fashion hnjsea unveil their spring collections next month and fashion sage? are predieUng longer skirts. An Impressive web of secrecy has. as usual, been woven around the collections but it la reliably reported that seven inches from the ground one inch longer than the most exaggerated lengths last fall can be expected. Some of the more moderate houses probably will maintain a happy medium Exaggerated hippinesa it expeoted to be the vogue even more than last season. Materiala are expected to be as luxurious as ever, with no harsh, bold colon. GenUe pastel shades will be played to the full. Floral drsighs will be tabu materials will be mainly plain. But polkadots from nickle to saucer site are expected to be splashed in a big way. Plaids copied In both silk and wool from original Scottish desimt and colorings also are forecast. Exactly why Parit designers are expected to make a thorough Job of the trend they started last year teems to be purely a matter of economics. Timet are hard for the fashion houses. Many of them have had to thut thop either temporarily or permanently through financial difficulties particularly those that have only a French clientele. f The changes last season weren't violent enough to garner a full harvest of customers. This year those customers have got to be fully convinced that a return to shorter skirts Is out of the question and that their wardrobes must be replenished.
