LONDON, July 14 (UP). London hat-makers, curiously enough, have never made bet ter hats than they have turned out since the war..

There are two possible rea- sons: first of all, two of Britain's best-known statesmen-Wins- ton Churchill and Anthony Eden-have made the nation hat-conscious and, secondly, British buyers, since the col- lapse of France, have not been able to make their periodic once in three weeks trips. to. Paris to bring over fresh French models.

Nor are the shapes those which seem practical in a city where work on bombed buildings cause dust to be always in the air, for the wide brimmed hat with gently upturned shape is the favourite-in fact, our old friend the "breton." And where- as in past generations ribbons were
