Opposition to Knox Resolution

'Washington, March 20. (Spe
cial Telegram.) -If the president
A oppose the passage of the Knox
reaolution to declare a state of
peace between the United States
and Germany, he will have com
sletely reversed his campaign slo
gan of 1916, and instead of keeping
us' out of war, he will be keeping
us in war," said Senator Norris.
He made the statement in connec
tion with a prediction by him that
the Knox resolution will pass the
senate in any event by a substantial
majority.
i "It wouWpass by a nearly unani
mous vote if the president did not
interfere." said the senator, who be-
t lieves also that-tbe house wiU pass
it as soon as the senate as acted.
"There is some doubt, however,
about whether the necessary two
thirds can be mustered in the event
of a veto."
M Favors Knox Resolution.
!? Senator Kaox expressed the
opinion that it was highly desirable
for the Knox resolution to pass, so
that the United States and the
world can really go on to a peace
basis. . t
Discussing the vote by which
ratification of the treaty failed, Sen-
Ljator Norris saidr
If every member of the senate
had voted his honest convictions,
the treaty in my judgment would
have been defeated by a much
larger vote. There were two classes
of senators who did not vote their
Conscious convictions. In the demo
cratic party it was those who fol
lowed the president; in the repub
lican' party, those who followed
their political leaders for partisan j
reasons." .

NO TIGHT FITTING
COATS FOR MEN
IN NEW DESIGNS
Natural Fitting Jacket, Not so
Narrow , aod Fraction.
Longer, to be Vogue,
New York, March 20. New de
signs for. men's spring and summer
attire to be displayed at the annual
fashion' show and dinner of the New
York Custom Cutters' club Monday
night virtually eliminate the tight
fitting suit of war days. Instead, a
natural fitting coat, not iO narrow
and just a fraction longer, has been
decreed by fashion . arbiters as its
substitute. The "toothpick" ,la$el
also has been discarded and in its
place a more modest peak has been
decided upon.
Experts agree that the American
man prefers three buttons on his
coat instead of two. As a solace for
anv disappointment tfaat might be
felt through the loss of the tight
clinging styles, the narrow sleeves
will be retained.- The correctly
dressed man will also have a lO-jtich
opening in the-, back of his coat.
Slash pockets have gone, but those
in the waistcoat and coat will have
a slight curve.
Trousers will have little changes.
The average man, a statement said,
"likes his covering for the lower
limbs narrow and with cuffs, ind
that is the way he will get it"
Only slight changes hav 6een
made in evening dress and in the
cutaway for the promenaders. The
"very modish" will get a nappy.
"short sack suit" with wide Kelt and
two plests, which the designers
have stamped as "correctly blase."
The solons further decree there will
be no orgv of color schemes.
The light spring overcoat will be
"shapely in front with full box back
and no vent." 1 s will ,have the
popular circular patch pockets.
Light colors will predominate.
Stud Poker Game
With Marked Cards
Rehearsed in Court
New York. March 20. A stud
poker game with marked cards 'was
reproduced in court during the
trial of Louis Ktebnberg a shirt
manufacturer, who is charged with
obtaining , money in a game of
chance by fraud. :
I. M. Silverman, one of a half
.dozen complainants, laid before the
magistrate two hands from a deck
which he .said he took from Krohn
berg's game. These proved to have
shadings in the fleur de lis design
on "the backs which indicated the
nature of the cards.
Illustrating with the marked
deck, Silverman testified that
Krohnberg saw that the fifth card
of a stud hand would make him
have two pairs against one pair for
his opponent and thereby won
$5,700.

The
Fashions That Will Dominate
the New Season Find Fitting
Expression in These Showings
A CAREFUL consideration of the styles which merit atten
tion because of their originality, beauty and the enthusiasm
of their reception in the east, has, led us to make selections with
a great degree of accuracy, maintaining at all times the stand
ards of intrinsic excellence upon which the Thompson-Belden
reputation has been established. x
Good taste and quality prevail in every instance, for with either
of these essentials omitted there must, of necessity, be a lack of
distinction, without which no costume serves its true purpose.
With each new season the question of the length of a sleeve, the
line of a skirt, or the hue of one's wardrobe in general attains
vast importance. Displays that are known to be dependable
criterions of style are viewed with interest.
