AMERICANS CAN
BARTER WITH
ROME, July 14 (by Associated
Press).—Every attraction for the
American trader—market, sufficient
domestic resources to warrant the ex
tension of credit and a sympathetic
clientele—is to be found in Sardinia,
according to Dr. Alfred P. Dennis,
United States commercial attache,
after his recent exhaustive study ><5S
the economic situation in the larger
insular possession of Italy.
“The Italian mainland, just at pres
ent,” said Dr. Dennis to the Associated
Press correspondent, “has very little
that she can exchange with us. Amer
ica wants her cheese and olive oil)
but the supply of both of these com
modities is below the margin of home
consumption.
“The situation is much better in
Sardinia. The island produces cork,
olive oil, tomato paste, wool, sheei>
skins, almonds, canned tunnyfish and
pecorino cheese greatlty in excess of
domestic requirements. These native
products she would gladly exchange
for American coal, shoes, agricultural
implements, cheap soap, cutlery and
kitchen utensils. Here lies the coin
cidence of natural supply and demand
which furnish the essential elements
for carrying out a true program of
barter.
“An American steamship service, of
fering direct trade between New York
and Sardinian ports, would be a nov:
elty, but, in my opinion, would prove
a profitable venture. Such an enter
prise would, of course, postulate the
establishment of trade agencies and
banking facilities in Sardinia.
“I found the people of the island to
be simple, unspoiled folk, and a per
fect delight in establishing friend
ships.”
TOKIO, July 14 (by Associated
Press).—M. Zumoto, a prominent Jap
anese journalist, who has just returned
from Siberia, has declared in a speech
here that not one of the various alarm
ist reports concerning American activ
ities in Siberia was well founded.
On the contrary, he said, the activi
ties of Americans in Siberia were all
unselfish and dedicated to the welfare
and advancement of the people of Rus
sia. He especially praised the work
of the American Red Cross and the
American Young Men’s Christian As
^ sociation. It was a striking thing, he
said, to notice that the men who di
rected the American activities were
those who had lived in Japan and were
friendly to the Japanese people.
Mr. Zumoto added that he had de
livered a number of speeches to the
Japanese people concerning the re
sults of his trip in an effort to eradi
cate any misunderstanding. He looked
forward to active co-operation be
tween Japan and the United States in
the future development of Siberia.
The address was one of several
made at a luncheon given by Colonel
R. B. Teusler? American Red Cross
commissioner to Siberia, in honor of
Major George W. Simmons, deputy
commissioner of the war council of
the American Red Cross, who has just
returned from an extensive trip into
the heart of Siberia.
Mr. Simmons said he was convinced
that the present provisional govern
ment at Omsk wras wisely and effi
ciently conducting the affairs in Rus
sia in the interest of all of its people
and he added: “It is unquestionably
gaining from day to day in the confi
dence of the people, while the military
discipline, morale and effectiveness ol
the new Russian army are constantly
improving.”
Colonel Teusler said: “It is very
much to be desired that Japan and th(
United States assist as far as possi
hie in this humanitarian and philan
thropic relief in Siberia, and that w<
co-operate in this assistance in everj
way in our power.”
Both Colonel Teusler and Majo:
Simmons are leaving for Washingtoi
to make a report on the Siberian situ
ation.

With the approach of summer
weather, the big hat is coining actively
into its own. The first warm days de
mand that the headgear selected shall
be small and rather close reefed to
withstand wind and weather, and a
hat of this type is very smart with
narrow, straight-line tailored suit or
frock. But big hats are almost uni
formly becoming, and when summer
suns begin to shine, a spreading hat
' bTim is a great protection to the eyes
and complexion.
Not only are large hats definitely ap
proved, but hats of the home-made
variety are seen in the very best so
ciety.
The sketch offers two millinery sug
' gestions to the woman who is eco
i nomieally inclined and who has pa
j tience enough to spend the time that
| is necessary to make a hat. A hat
must be well made if it is to be pre
sentable at all. This is especially true
of the fabric hat. Large, rough-look
ing stitches must be avoided and the
fabric must be carefully cut and laid.
These hats are fashioned of chiffon
or georgette. Very little, trimming is
used on either one. The little fold or
“ruffle” at the edge of the brim gives
the hat a very soft finish and adds to
its becomingness.
When trimming is used on the
summer chapeau, flowers usually are
first choice. All kinds of garden flow

ers are lined up in the millinery field
this season. Hollyhocks, poppies,
bleeding hearts, violets and roses, of
course, and lilies, including those of
the pond and calla family, are, ap
proved. Ribbon flowers are fashion
able also, some of the smartest hats
showing clusters oif very real looking
asters, sunflowers, etc., made of nar
. row ribbon in carefully selected colors.
