NEW YORK, Oct. 15— —(U.R)~—Since so many winter suits are heavily collared with fur the bright silk scarf has taken on renewed interest, for it cotilChutes to such a costume the same desirable note with which one is familiar when a fur-trimmed coat is the choice. Besides which it is a comfortable and protective measure, to say nothing of a highly decorative one. Os the entire range the sheer scarf of chiffon is said to be the favorite, localise of its soft, almost ethereal qualities Which facilitate its being worn

with ease under a coat which depends largely upon the trim lines of its fur collar for smartness. Small oblong scarfs which are merely long enough to knot loosely about the throat, and medium sized squares in modernistic and conventional hand blocked patterns are given special emphasis for wear with colorful tweed sports costumes as well as with formal coats. The outstanding point for these filmy scarfs, outside of the attractiveness of the scarfs themselves, is the fact that when they are crushed beneath a closed coat collar they do not form an unsightly bulging spot like most scarfs of heavy crepe, but still they give adequate protection to a delicate fur collar. When the coat collar is worn open the graceful folds of the chiffon are very flattering. It should not be understood that the hand blocked scarf of • crepe has been * abandoned, since it is considered of prime importance for girls of high school and college age. The hand blocked scarf of crepe de Chine or flat crape has almost I come to be considered a staple item. PYTHIAN NEEDLE CLUB ENTERTAINED AT FORT WAYNE Mrs. J.

AGREEMENT MAY NOT BE REACHED France And Italy May Insist On Their Own Naval Programs Washington, Oct. 16 —(U.R) —French and Italian hints of an intention to insist upon their respective naval programs may prevent a five power naval agreement some observers felt here today, although all five naval powers now have consented to meet in London next January. Acceptance of the British invitations by Japan. France and Italy was welcomed by officials here bWt the problem created by the reported Franco-Italian attitude admittedly cieated a serious obstacle to a five power agreement. The United States and Great Britair race understood to be willing to accept a three power agreement with Japan if France and Italy are reluctant at London next January. But It is believed it would be impossible to achieve so much on the basis of a three power understanding as upon a five power pact. Regardless of the attitudes of France and Italy, whose interests center upon cruisers, destroyers and submarines, the United States and Great Britain are confident that Japan would enter a three power agreement designed to postpone battleship replacement programs and to place such limitations upon auxiliary vessels as might be possible under the circumstances. - o Defense Continues Its Presentation of Evidence Washington.
