WPB to Freeze

Feminine Styles

WASHINGTON, March 9 «(U. P,)—Style changes in women’s clothes will not be eliminated by the war, but they'll be so slight that existing clothing will not be out of style.

Conservation of fabric will be reflected by proposals to be issued within about a week to eliminate Jackets over dresses, top coats over suits, and similar two-gar-ment pieces.
