Ministers Set Hat Styles

By Alison Settle

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 beat-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.

So the London hat-makers have been asked to make hals for private client, as well as design models for De big department stores and stores in the provinces.

Definitely both Mr Churchill and Mr Eden have left their murk on the shape of women's hats. There are many miniature coples of men's hais, of the dented "Anthony Eden" which unce we called a Hamburg.

They are buying delic- ale fine felts in pale pinks and pale blues, and match hats and gloves to go out to lunch at Mirabell restaur- ant or at the Coq d'Or with busbands on leave. You even find the nest white felts in wide brimmed shapes, sometimes felt and straw faced to- gether.
