SALES TO FAR EAST?
He predicted greater use will be made of coal as a producer of electricity and said negotiations are in progress with several coun-
tries in the Far East.
Fifteen years ago coal mining was second only to agriculture in Alberta as a revenue producer. Since 1950, however, the increas- ing use of natural gas in homes and the changeover’ to diesel from steam locomotives by the railways has ail but closed the traditional markets.

Trend Seen In Rome Fashions | English Bone CHINA
ROME (AP) — The “empire period”. of Roman fashion has had its decline and fall.
With few exceptions, notably that of Gregoriana, designers here have restored the natural waistline in their spring-~summer collections.
Saturday was the last day of Rome fashion' showings and the back-to-normal waistline trend is expected to continue this week in Florence where another group of Italian fashion houses will pre- sent their latest styles.
Up to now the high-leve] hort- zontal seam which marked last @eason’s clothes has steadily re- ceded, but never so far as the
hip.
WAIST EFFECTS Broad bands, belis and cum-!
merbunds, building up from ‘the
waist, have figured importantly
in several collections, particu-
having retained foreshort-' ened bodices throughout.
Garnett, whose collection in- cluded the dynamic drape and flowing chiffon touch for which she is known, treated collars with! careful consideration. Elsewhere in these Rome collections they were all but abolished.
Other designers whose spring creations were: put on view in- cluded Princess Giovanelli, the weaver of the island, and Gaiti-| Harking to a call of the wild theme, Giovanelli fantailed her skirts like the feathers of a pheasant.
Gattinoni, in keeping with her trademark of conservative arro- gance, had a wardrobe full ot diplomatic delights on display. Accordingly, ambassadors’ wives: ir their daughters will be waist-' band by day in two-inch self-belts|
