POCKETS CREATE
SENSATION
Pockets have suddenly come into, the Paris limelight. writes a cor- respondent. It is no longer merely a question of pockets or no pockets, one of the old-time seasonal dress questions, but concerns a really new type of pocket that will be much discussed in the course of the next few days,
A Paris dress expert who is
spending all the Snow
hours fol the day and well into the night in studying the latest moves of fashion that the new pockets are shaped like a gauntlet glove with fingers, fan-shaped in black kid, as little handbags with metal fastenings and parasols that open and shut.
Imagine these pocket motifs split in half as it were and ap pliqued at either side beneath waistlines.
Brown leather purse-patch- pockets appear on the short basque of a beige woollen auft.
A black kid belt. with the dial of a clock keeping time to buckle it together is another quaint novelty.

If feminine problems are deli- cate, this is especially true with their, dress.
Hardly had the dispute over the ban od queer attireë between the fair sex and municipal authorities in Canton been satisfactorily set- tled, when Changsha was plunged into the same controversy.
Like their sisters in other cities Changsha women are alleged to be fond of attractive and even fanci- ful accouterment. So high-heels, short sleeves, curled hair, stream- lined dress, lip-stick, etc., became the vogue,

But if their dresses were attrac- tive, they attraced the attention of a wrong person, Mr. Chow Han, a staunch "moralist," who is director of the local bureau of public safety and concurrently a sectional chief in the Changsha New Life Move- ment Promotion Association.

However sound the feminists might think of their argument, the protest was flatly turned down by the New Life Movement Promotion Association, and the ban was not ufted. But the bitter controversy. is assuming wider and wider pro- portions.
TWO HOSTILE CAMPS
In general, two hostile camps are pitched. On the one hand are the. moralists rallying under the New Life banner, bitterly denouncing the unsual styles as demoralizing.
