New Dior Styles Bring On Comment Cool Reception In ' Hollywood Circles ’ ’ HOLLYWOOD (INS) - Hollywood, hometown Os the glorified bust, showed a bit of cleavage today over ChrteUan Dior’s latest trappings for tnUMy'a The warmest reception for the French designer’s new styles was Paget, whose delicious figure would make even a potato sack look like tfform fitted gown. ' For. a moment she studied Dior’s dictates, which prescribe flak covered bustltnes for daytime wear, but near naked -bosoms for night, aftd then she came up with this comment: !( *; ; ’4 “I had .to * ignore,4is old’ flat look because I couldn’t qualify. Now I can be Dior-Ish fa thenlghttime,. if hot at '

On the other hand, one of the chflliest blasts against Dior's bare bosom creations came from statuesque Joan Crawford, who said: "It would only make people curious if they thought something were overexposed. Personally, I like to be looked at, but not out of curiosity.” And then, there was the cautious, academic, almost scholarly attitude adopted ty comedian Bob Hope, who temporized: “Traveling waistlines might invites wanderlust for some people.” ELKS CANCER (Continued from Paa* One) has raised a total of *2,594.45 since 194 k. The annual cancer party has'become a community project, with other lodges and merchants assisting. A donation of *1.50 to the cancer fund entitles the donor to the entire program, including the smorgasbord. All proceeds are turned over to „ the Elks cancer fund.

Bob Hope To Take | Holiday From TV Comedian Refuses Lucrative Offers HOLLYWOOD (INS), — Funnyman Bob Hope, one of the busiest performers in show business, plans to take a holiday from television next season because he has been working too hard. Hope's plans for taking it easy next came to light when Myron Kirk, hepd of the Kudner Agency's TV department, offered the comedian a fabulous amount for a General Motors series and was turned down. James Saphier, 'Hope's agent,! said the popular laugh-getter also has turned down other equally lucrative offexs and will allow his ' contract with NBC and monthly show series with General Foods co expire. The only reason Hope gives is that he wants to take it easy—he’s tired, S6OO Pay Increase Sought For Solons Proposes Boost To State Lawmakers INDIANAPOLIS (INS) — A *6OO annual pay boost for state lawmakers was in the hands of the claims, salaries and expenditures committee of the senate, today. The measure, which would not be effective until November, 1956, also includes a slx-cents-a-mile payment for a weekly round-trip home during general assembly season.

These sources denied reports' from Taipeh that there is a vdeadoek” between, the U. S. and the Chinese Nationalists over such issues as evacuation of the Tachen Islands 200 miles north of Formosa. Both Chinese and Amercian sources indicated that the timing of the evacuation depends on When :he U. S. seventh fleet 1s ready for the operation. A U. S. official pointed out that evacuation on a scale involving at east 10,000 troops and large number of civilians, requires extreme care ip its preparation. ••One official said navy “doc-, trine” teaches that it is foolhardy for the fleet, to go into an evacuation operation before it has been prepared for all contingencies, in--luding the possibility of being forced to stand and fight to protect Americans sent ashore along vith the Chinese on the beaches. Meanwhile, other sources said that agreement was reached on redeployment and the call for a cease-fire before secretary of state John Foster Dulles surprised i news conference by declaring he felt the Tachens were not essential to-the defense of Formosa! It was not clear whether Chiang has yet agreed to the cease-fire ispect of the agreement but it was felt that he eventually would, go along.

Soviet Russia Will Enlarge War Potential Expansion Os Heavy Industry Main Task Os Party, Nation MOSCOW (INS) —' The central committee of the Soviet Communist party announced today an expected policy declaration that the "expansion of heavy industry" will ■ be the maiii task of the party and nation. / The plenary session of the com- , mittee. which convened for the first time in seven months last Friday, also called for renewed efforts to increase agricultural output, particularly of livestock. The committee’s decision followed a report by Nikita S. Khrushchev, first secretary, which was prominently displayed today in all Russian newspapers. The plenary session was held to prepare for the meeting of the Supreme Soviet (parliament) scheduled to open Thursday. In London, western diplbmatic circles expressed the belief that major Aussian policy statements on domestic and foreign affairs wttTcome out of the Supreme Soviet session. The parliament, whose chief function is to provide a platform for top-level party announcements, is meeting much earlier than usual. The timing of the session, following closely on the return to Moscow for consultations of the Soviet ambassadors in Washington, London, Paris and East Germany was regarded as highly significant. The decision to concentrate the Russian economy on the development of basic, heavy industry was indicated in a Pravda editorial last week. The official organ of the party criticized at that time those persons who would give greater priority 4e- the production of consumer goods. Western observexs interpreted the move as a return to the basic premises of Leninism and Stalinism which were abandoned Tor a time following the installation of Georgi Malenkov as premier. At the August." 1953, session of the Supreme Soviet Malenkov called for increased production of consumer goods. The emphasis on heavy industry was considered to mean an emphasis on armaments, and military production.

Many Food Bargains Promised In March ' - "I Many Food? To Be On Plentiful List WASHINGTON (INS) — Housewives are promised a wide range of food bargains in March with canned corn and canned snap beans right at the top of the Hat. Rice and eggs are other items suggested by the agriculture department as good buys over the next few weeks. v The country is staggering under a huge surplus of rice and, in spite of federal price supports, this situation Is being reflected in relatively low retail prices on grocery shelves. Home economists suggest using rice in a variety of soups or in combination with meat, eggs, cheese and fish dishes. Other foods on the plentiful list for March are dairy products, beef, pork, oranges and grapefruit (both fresh and processed), raisins, small dried prunes, lard and vegetable fats and oils, and such seafoods as frozen haddock fillets, frozen halibut, shrimp (both fresh and frozen), and canned tuna. The government is cooperating in a program to sell more corn and snap beans in cans next month because the present large Stocks on hand threaten to depress markets for the incoming crop. Last year’s pack of snap beams was of record size—about 27 million cases of both green and wax varieties. The picture is much the same for canned corn. Processors put up more than 30 million cases last' year and supplies- ready tor market are larger than at any time in the past five years. Meanwhile, indications are that on the average, housewives will pay about as much for farm-pro-duced foods in 1955 as they did last year. These foods, taken together, were slightly lower in cost at the end of 1954 than a year earlier. The record shows, however, that the farmer bore the full effect of the reduction and that marketing or middlemen’s charges actually increased. The official forecast is that these charges probably will rise a little higher in 1955. If the farmer is to get the same cut of the consumer's food dollar as in 1954, then any further upsurge in marketing costs must be passed along to the housewife. Hazardous Driving Reported In State Heat Wave Nipped By Colder Weather INDIANAPOLIS (INS) —lce covered the northern two-thirds of Indiana today as freezing rain and . thermal readings nipped a heat , wave in the bud. The state highway commission • reported that all roads in central and north central Indiana are partly covered with frozen rain and sleet. It said main state roads are being sanded but extreme caution should be exercised. Temperatures ranged from 18 at . South Bend to 32 at Evansville and •snow rain-sleet covered a 50 mile belt from Lafayette Jto Fort Wayne. It was expected to be three inches deep. An occasional shaft of sunlight shot through a cold overcast covering much of the state but whether it would cast a shadow of the 1 groundhog remained to be seen. If the shadow is seen, there will be six more weeks of winter. Regardless of the outcome of the 'woodchuck’s efforts, Indfiana is 1 in for another 24 hours of snow-rain-sleet. Weathermen said Thursday will be cloudy with rain or snow in the south and occasional snow in the north by,afternoon or ntsht. High today are expected to 1 range from 30 to 38 degrees and lows tonight from 18 to 26.
