Sack Dress Failure

In Land Os Irish Women Listen To Men On Foshion By GAY PAULEY United Press Women’s Editor DUBLIN. Ireland (UP) — The sack dress is a failure in this land where the women listen to their men. “The men hate the sack, the chemise or whatever you want to call it,” said Irene Gilbert, one of Ireland's three famous couturiers. "And the women. Well, the chemise looks too much like a maternity dress, and we have enough of that here anyway ” Miss Gilbert explained that about the only concession the chic Irish women have made to Paris and New York dictates are in the shorter skirts and a little less snug fit in dresses and suits. Her clothes show off the figure, but without constriction. I didn’t see a chemise on the street, in restaurant or case, in my visit to this city of 600,000 capital of Ireland’s 26 independent counties. * Listen To Men So apparently the women are listening to the men's viewpoint on styles, as Miss Gilbert indicated. As for Dublin’s designers, they go along with the general trend to higher hemlines. *T’m making all daytime clothes two inches shorter than last year/’ said designer Gibert. "Ld-gs providing, of course.” She, along with Sybil Connolly and Raymond Kenna, are helping to put Gaelic fashions, particularly those in Irish tweed, in women’s wardrobes in all parts of the Western world. < All sell through leading stores in the United States and have private customers scattered in other parts of the world. Miss Gilbert’s most recent special job was to design the uniforms for hostesses on Irish Air Lines, which has just begun trans-Atlantic service. Used Green Tweed She used a soft, lightweight tweed. Color? Green, of course. Miss Gilbert, in real life Mrs Ronnie Law, is a native of Dublin. “I guess I got into this business because my mother couldn’t sew,’’ she said- “I remember when I was about 12, mother got ambitious and bought a bolt of cloth to make rhe some dresses. She cut one out, and lost interest. I finished that dress myself, and seem to have been sewing ever since. “I don’t go to Paris to see what * they're doing. I don’t need to. I think it’s much better, if you’re a designer to be yourself.” - She believes Ireland’s fashions have a good future in the United t States because “we both like the casual, easy look in clothes. We think alike. But for your central heating, our tweeds will have to be made much lighter weight ”

Government Asks Phone Rates Cut Terms Private Line Costs As Too High WASHINGTON (UP) — The Federal Communications Commission is expected to act soon on a government complaint that Uncle yarn’s phone bill and other private leased line services charges .are "out of line." The government Services Administration has asked the commission for a fast ruling on its petition for an immediate 25 per cent slice in the rates of private line services- It called the cut “conservative.” The private circuit services involved are leased from Amercan Telephone & Telegraph Co. sought by GSA would apply to telephone services but also would include various “telephone grade” services such as teletypewriter, telephoto and telemetry. “It is necessary to take immediate action because the U.S. government’s bill for private line service is rapidly growing,” the GSA told the FCC. AT&T is strongly opposed to a rate ruling by the commission before it completes hearings and concludes action in the case. GSA, the governments “housekeeping” agency, also represents Uncle Sam as a consumer in rate matters involving communications companies. GSA has reported the government spends 32 million dollars annually on private line services. In addition it costs the government some 100 million dollars annually for its air warning system known as “SAGE” or semi - automatic ground environment. This is a complex electronic system set up . to warn the approach of enemy ; aircraft and missiles. i The rates at issue are being considered in the commission’s i major investigation of private line I charges, services and general ■ practices of AT&T and Western > Union Telegraph Co. The study ! Began 2% years ago-
