PRIMARY ELECTION IIITS NEW DEAL

WASHINGTON. Sept. 19—(AP)-—- Tuesday's primary elections hit New Deal constitutional revision hopes in Pennsylvanl. the Sales Tax in New Jersey and abortive revolts in both democratic and Re- publician organizations of New York city.

New Mexico, the fourth state holding an off-yearprimary elec- tion. witnessed apparently success- ful opposition to proposed consti- tutional changes there, particularly charter revision extending to all the property tax exemptions now granted to war veterans.

With returns in Pennsylvania nearly all in, charter revision trail- ed by more than 101,000 votes. The result was a defeat for the plans of Governor George Earle to provide constitutional foundations for social security measu ca patterned after the Roosevelt New Deal.

In New York city all the borough Democratic organizations bearing the approval of Postmaster General James A. Farley swept their tickets to victory. Tammany Hall, faced with internal uprising among fol- lowers of the ousted leader John F. curry. stood off a threat to the leadership of James J. Dooling by winning I3 of I0 district fights.

The country Republican organi- zation of Chase Mcllen, young Liberal in Manhattan. similarly fought off an "old guards" move- men with Mellen‘s country chair- manship apparently preserved.

Silver Fox Trims New Goats for Fall

Fall coats are interesting in their almost unanimous acceptance of the slender wrapped body, some- times wcm without a belt. oc- casionally with the closing accented by fur. but most. instances worn belted. The fabrics lend to empha- size the straight up-and-down line of the slim silhouette in their en- dorsement of the self-striped raised pattern effect.

There is a series of coats magni- ficently trimmed with silver fox in every collection. Silver fox is worked into deep tubular cuffs that serve as a muff as well; the fur sleeve reaches its most luxurious expression in this fur. skilfully mounted on the outside ofthe arm.

There is a new looking cape idea, which works fur vertically down the back in sailor suggestion, but rwrlaccs the flat line of the heck of ‘p. collar with a built-up collar. A coat that should be regarded as highly important from the style point of view emphasises the side closing with a band of silver fox and introduces l. shined treatment qt the armhole of the wide sleeve.

The new flared collars in mink will also add to fall coats, while double bands of fur treated in sofe fichn effect. suggesting o. very fem- inine version of the p1astron.‘will 6W5"!!! PM" Dflhllcr in either misnoknor Per-alien lamb.

the European spruce sawfly now is well established in northern New England, adjacent to infecttd sec- tions of Canada, with the fate of New England spruce resting on the success of ‘ logists to discover a practical method of control.

Children L... Normal Weight

(By The Canadian Press) WASHINGTON. Sept. io-Re- cently completed surveys by the public health service of school children in six representative Am- erican cities reveals that young- sters from families whose incomes have shrunk due-to the depression did not maintain the same relative growth as children of the entire group studied.

Most significant of the findings was that "the average weight of children from the continuously comfortable families is approxi- mately four per cent greater than the average weight of all children taken together: that the relative weight of children from the poor families is roughly one to two per cent below the weight of all chil- dren and that the relative weight of children from recently poor families takes an intermediate po- sition between the other two eco- nomic groups." the report says.

The children from six to nine years o: age failed by slightly more than two per cent to attain the average weight of the entire group. Little relationship was found for children over 10 years of age or in heights of any of the children.

By 1933. the report adds, the weight of children from families which ‘pcame poor during the de- pression dropped from the level of the continuously comfortable fam- ilies to about that. of the continu- ously poor families.

Wore Clothes To Wear Long Not For View

(By The Canadian Press)

LONDON. Sept. ill-What our Victorian grandmothers wore—and didn't wear~is the subject of an raticle in The Manchester Guardi- an, largely on the authority of masculine writers. but interpreted by a woman contributor:

Dr. Willett Cunnington, whose collection of feminine 19th century clothes has earned large sums f0! various charities; has recently writ- ten a book on the subject and has called it "Feminine Attitudes in the Nineteenth Century."

What he says about women's dress insofar as styles have been evolved and adopted with an eye to husband-catching, has been set down before in slightly different words by D. H. Lawrence in one o1 his essays collected under the title of “Assorted Articles.’ And judging from its reception by some o1 Dr. Cunningtonls women re- viewers, it has given considerable offence. The old question has crop- ped up: Do women dress with the male eye as their chief objective, or is there adornment chiefly adop- ted in self-expression lmd as a re- sult of their strong aesthetic sense?

However Ms question may be answered, there can be no doubt that our grandmothers. granted that they were respectable women. seem to have made no 6110M t0 please one eyes in the matter of underclothes. Acoordingl Dr. Cun- nington has found r1 difficult t0 obtain as many specimens as he would have liked of such gunn- ents. Even trousseau nishtsvwns and the rest, have seldom been kept, these having been intended rather for hard wear and wash than for charm. so that scruvlllillls cleanliness alone was the oblwli 01 women in this respect, and when a garment was outworn or out- grown it was out up for the sake of the linen. the embroidery alone being sometimes retained for use with new material.

A feminine contributor to The Guardian says:

"The other day, reading a cur- ious Victorian book by a male auth- or on the subject 0f WON-HHS 1°!‘ women. I came across. the infor- mation that few little girls in early Victorian times possessed any drawers at all, that in a girls’ school the richer children owned a. few pairs, which they wore on Sundays only, and that the long pantalettes in the pictures of small girls were usually mere leggings drawn on separately over each foot. after the girl was dressed. to be secured roimd the: knees by tape or elastic, with the result that a common disaster during a walk was to discover one frilled legging- growing longer than the other.

“That is to say, that the Brontes, George Eliot, and, earlier, Jane Austen wore chemizes but no draw- ers. It was at a. later date that the pantaiettes tool: to themselves an upper part And turned into those open drawers which, when they were first introduced. were considered both daring and indeli- cate. although they cam to serve a wi-s); generation and more of our mothers and aunts. The intro- duction of bloomers or closed pants came later and was a startling in- novation which many condemned on the grounds of excessive mascu- linity. ~ -

"'Stout' underelothing, in the sense of substantial, was the word And perhaps nothing could better demonstrate the difference between a. girl of thcse days and one of the present time than a comparison the nightgowns normally worn the two epochs.

“Old fashions for dresses and coats may return." the writer pro- phecies. "Evln the crinoilne and the bustle may easily have a modi- fied revival. But I take it that we shall never again ~wl"h to we-rr anything resernbl, ' Victorian un- der cloth s. no matm- how the wheel of fashion may revolve."

L Not One Stricken Of- 7,000 Treated

MONTREAL. Sept. 1a-Dr. Mau;ice Brodie, of Ottawa, dis- coverer of a new serum for the prevention of infantile paralysis. who is connectcdwith the public health services in New York city, said here tonight it was too early yet to know whether - the serum was good pr not. In the next breath he revealed that out of 7.- 000 perscns vaccinated with the serum none has yet been stricken with infantile paralysis.

“There really isn't any news in this thing," he stated. "We have been trying the serum out for about a. year. Just recently, we used it 0n a. batch of New York children and the papers got hold of it. But there wasn't anything new then, and there isn't anything new now. As far as we're concerned,’ there won't be anything new for a. considerable time until our tests have been in practice long enough to show results."

Its discoverer said the serum is cf no value for treatment. It is purely a preventive. It is derived from the spinal cords of monkeys which had the disease. One monkey can supply enough serum to im- munize six persons. Dr- Brodie ls a graduate of McGill University, Montreal.
