RACING YOUR SUIT NECK AND JWECK

. ll I KIA Service

It’s your neck-but what's the best way to decorate it?

If you're the average man, your wardrobe has slightly more than four necktles-mostly blue in New England, green in the mid-West and South, pink in the metropoli- tan" areas, and solid colors of any dark tone in rural areas.

But if you‘re average-and mar- ried as well-you're necktie ward- robe wlll be up to about 18, pro- bnbly because father gets more ties for gifts than anything else.

Here's what the Men's Tie Foundation says about what to wear your four-or lti-neck-ties with.

A gray suit-almost any color ie ‘

A brownsuit-tlcs with a com- bination of brown and gray, or brown and blue.

A blue sult-ties in e combination of yellow and blue or yellow and maroon. . _

Short, stout men, say the neck-

With striped suits, ‘any man should stick to small figures or solid-colored ties; with plaidsults, checks, small figures or bold stripes are ‘a good choice; boldly striped tics go excellently with tweeds.

GAIAIABDIIV“ ,.»

When Prime Minister Joseph B. Chlfley left for the prime ministers’

conference in London he took with OOVERTE

him a long-range plsn to pend 060,000.01» on developing the com- paratively empty of arable land extending roughly over 500.000 square miles from West - Queens- land throughjhe Northern Territ- ory to the Indian Ocean on the West Coast.

The Australian government pro- poses- to meet the cost. but as pert of the scheme Britain is expected to sign a long-term meat agree- ment that will guarantee s. mini- mum price for all Australia's sur- plus beef for the next 10 years.

The minimum price the govern- ment is demanding will ssﬂﬂlild the ranch owners and the govern- ment's financial commitments in developing the ares.

Twice in the last eight months Britain has agreed to an increase to encourage cattle production in Australia, but they have not been high enough to warrant big scale development.

Sia- Henry Turner, head of the British Food Mission, after an in- spection of the territory, conceded it was reasonable for Britain to pay a much higher price to cover the heavy outlay necessary to lift pro- ductiob.

So far the British government maintained the present price of $0.- 92 per 100 pounds of first grade beef is sufficient compensation.

Ranch Active

However, ranch owners in the north see the present Anglo-Ar- gentine dispute over meat prices as an opportunity to urge tilt Australian government to do some- thing concrete to lift them out of the near-pioneering era.

1n the past c. number of Royal I‘ ‘ ions have been held into ways and means of developing the neglected land but each report has been shelved through apparent lack of interest in the area.

Today after almost s. century of occupation there are only 500 miles of railroad in the Northern Ter- ritory and only one road worth des- cribing as such-the North-South highway constructed by Australia and United States as s. military road d/uring the war.

The present development scheme, which now appears certain of being adopted, wilLstart with the estab- lishment of‘ t‘ ds of mile; of good roads linking the cattle ranch- es with export centres st Darwin and at Wyndham in West Aust- ralia. '

The roads later will be extended to the Kimberley districts of the West and in as far as the Barkly Tablelands of Queensland.
