FALL COATS FOR GENTLEWOMEN

There are so many (hundreds) of names of coatings and coats—Some so intriguing and honied—that one could be forgiven for a state of confusion!

But—MELVANA ought to clarify the field a bit!

Firstly—please remember it's a FORSTMANN fabric—and Forstmann is {and has been for generations) famed throughout the fabric world for incomparably fine textures—and Melvana is a

Forstmann masterpiece!

It is a rare blend of various fibers—the resulting

+ fabric—is deep, downy soft—luxurious to the

eye and to the touch—yet it has endurance—The coats are tailored with a clothing

“mind and with clothing hands—with the skill

and respect that the coating deserves. It is almost fabulously fine at the price!

IN MEMORY SCHOOLS (so called) one is taught to associate certain objects with others — the caressingly soft feel of one of these coats — arouses the approving murmur of “mmmmmm”’ — which perhaps will recall the name to your mind — mmmmmm — Melvana — that’s right!

military policy | committee said in interviews that the public in general favors a strong peacetime military force but all favored passage of enabling legislation before the war is over and a cooling period sets in. Rep. James W. Wadsworth (R. N. Y.), author of the resolution creating the military policy commiftee and exponent of compulsory peacetime training of all young {able-bodied men, said enactment of such laws now “would have the nation’s approval.” Fear Pacifist ‘Reaction “Congress will not wait until the war is over before acting because ‘| the members fear an attitude similar to the anti-militaristic public reaction of 1920,” he said. Calling compulsory training the

force, Committee Chairman Clifton A. Woodrum (D. Va.) said many members believe such legislation should be considered soon “because there very likely will be a wave of pacifism after the war and any legislation of a military nature will “ be difficult to enact.” A similar theme was sounded by Chairman Andrew J. May. (D. Ky) of the house military affairs committee. May and other members however, said they did not want to take up the general subject of post-war military policy until after the November elections so it could be kept out of politics. Wadsworth agreed with Rep. Leslie C. Arends (Ill), Republican whip, that if the people react against a strong peacetime military army,

opinion against such a feeling. Letdown Only Natural “The people are in a mood now to maintain an adequate military force after the war, but that mood may change when the shooting is over,” Arends said. “The longer congress waits the harder the job will be.” Chairman J. Buell Snyder (D. Pa.), of the special committee on war appropriations, said it was “human nature” to have a letdown after a long struggle and that the solution would be to act before that feeling sets in. “We should have several post-war military plans ready, each one prepared for a different set of conditions and circumstances so that the right one can be put in operation when the shooting stops,” Snyder said. “At the present time everyone is for an allied supervisory force capable of controlling recalcitrant nations, but we don't know how they will feel three months after the war.”
