Marlene Dietrich is choosing her newest models from Mr. John’s brand-new Theater of Hats ¢ollection with an eye on the baby-bottle rather than a magnum of champagne, Her grandchildren will absolutely not be nice to her in extravagant hats, “So Marlene has picked a couple of Mr, John's classic casuals.

And hidden in the closet _ until after her (the baby’s) bedtime are a whole treasure trove of John’s new chandelier hats, their veils sparkling with brilliants for grandmother's pleasure—and her escort’s.” Something seems just a touch cockeyed here.

TEN YEARS AGO, for instance, the Republic of Panama had a fleet of 65 merchant vessels. And just before the war, while we theoretically still were at peace, we couldn't put guns on our own ships because that would have been a. breach of international law. So the capital's experts on how to bend laws without breaking them thought up the idea of putting ships under Panamanian registry and fitting them with cannon, legally. This worked fine. Only the ship owners discovered that under Panama law, they could pay their sailors wages far less than before, feed them cheaper food, and even sleep them on harder beds.

unhappy man. He claims that not only are Panamanian registries phonies to cut operating costs, but that also they are used for flagrant tax evasion. “They can let their profits pile up down there” he said, “and bring them home at the opportune time to take advantage of the ideal year for tax purposes. And it has been too easy to fly a Panamian flag on a ship which the taxpayers’ money probably helped to buy, and then hire foreign seamen at wages much lower than ours.” The ship owners said it was either that, or go out of business on routes with foreign competition. The seamen retorted that they were chiselers. Congress in its own sweet time will decide.
