Green and Pink Hair Coming, Says Expert
Chicago, Oct. 22—What would you think if you saw a green-haired woman strolling along the boulevard?
Would you be surprised to attend an evening function where your hostess less swept into the drawing room than you do? With a pink hair to match her gown,
Would it be enough little schoolgirl, tripping along the street with two blue "pipistrels" to match her blue "paintbrush" to appeal to you as an alarming sight?
Keep your watch eye out for jumps
sights as these for you will see them
before very long, according to Neak
E. Andrews, New York beauty专
 specialist, in an address here before a
convention of hair dressers.

Chestnut Trees Recover
Blight Epidemic Checked, Says Dr. A. P. Kelley
New Brunswick, N. J., Oct 22... That the chestnut forests of the United States, now practically exterminated by the epidemic of thigh disease that swept them a few years ago, are showing signs of rapid growth and re-establishment, is the belief of Dr. Arthur P. Kullet of Rutgers University here. Dr. Kullet has found that many new chestnut seedlings have appeared in various parts of the eastern hardwoods and will eventually grow from the roots of trees whose tops were killed. By counting and measuring the amount of new growth on trees injured, but not killed, by the disease, he found that new growth is apparently increasing faster than old lumps are.
Kelly is of the opinion that instead of cutting down all the surviving chustre trees, some of them could be saved and used for a possible new generation.
The tree forms of the Pacific region are a possible commercial source of starch.
English Liberals to Die Out, Says Oxford Debater
Premier's Son Discussie
British Political Views
at Y. M. C. A.
Luncheon
The present political situation in England and the attitude taken by young men and women of England toward politics were the principal themes discussed by Malcolm MccDonald, son of the British premier, at a Y, M. C, A, luncheon held in Myers hall at noon today.
Mr. MacDonald made the prediction that within a few years there would be no Liberal party. "England will keep her two-party system," Mr. MacDonald said, "but between the Conservative and Liberal parties it will be between the Conservative and Labor parties."
In explaining the ideas and main differences of the Conservative and Labor parties, Mr. MacDonald said, "Although the Law party is in reality a party of revolutionary ideals it is a party which believes in proceeding by lawful methods. The present government is based on British laborers is due to the unequal distribution of the profits of production. Too much of these profits go to capital, and while the Law party believes that capital should have a just compensation, it also believes that some of capital's present profits should go into better wages, and clothing for the working man."
Explains Party Differences
"Of course the Conservative party advocates a few minor changes in the present system, but, in practice, the Conservatives, in theory, of keeping industry in private hands."
Opposite Views Held
While the Lator party maintains that the motive of private profit is a bad thing and it is essential fortune by bailing the owner's and manager's profits, the Conservatives content that it is absolutely necessary that industry be run by them.
In discussing the political opinions of the younger generation in England, Mr. Machaon said that there is no special youth movement as there is in Germany; no unity of ideas concerning political matters. "In England we have a great respect for the older generation and differ in political ideas quite as much as do our fathers. However, as a wholly the younger generation is tolerant of each other's ideas, and is always

Broadcasting Rule Brought to Test by Chicago Paper
Associated Press Regulation Disliked by Tribune; Question to
(United Press)
Chicago, Oct. 22. The Chicago Tribune today announced it would test the validity of the Associated Press rule prohibiting member newspapers from broadcasting election returns and news in national newspapers collected from territory to "which the Associated Press exclusively is entitled."
It is a clash between the old and the new, the Tribune declared. The following excerpt of the Association Press notice, just received by the Tribune, is the "null" of the situation.
"You are requested to cooperate in an enforcer of the established rules governing the display of bulletins and preventing utilization of radio for broadcasting of Associated Press returns from your territory to which the Associated Press exclusively is entitled."
A. P.Against Broadcasting
"By this notice, the Associated Press seeks to prevent the radio dissemination of news by member newspapers into the homes of the people. The Tribune will test the validity of this rule.
"The issue is regarded as in effect a clash between the old and the new. The ruling does not take into account the new element in modern life which the campaign has been fighting against other lines of activity to speak direct to millions during the recent campaign. It would forbid the broadcasting of any Cook county election results by the Tribune, for example, or that the candidate be held by the people own reporter.
"This rule appears to take on the aspect of monopolic rule. It is of no direct advantage to the Tribune to circulate important news by radio on the night before its morning issue appears with the identical news. Perhaps it would seem more easy to preserve in disarray if the news were elected or that there is a deadlock over the overlap until it could be revealed to the interested public at the news stands on the morning after.
People Want Returns
"This is the radio of radio, like other papers, the Tribune, resecuating this fact, has established a broadcasting bureau at our headquarters, an invaluable cooperative returns." The people have installed radios in their homes; they listen to public addresses; they announce election results.

Masculinized Feminine No Joke. Savs Nestle
New York. Oct. 22.-Prediction that bobbed hair will evolve eventually a race of bearded women may not prove the lobe many people imagine it, according to Charles Nestle hair specialist.
"There is more science than humor in the matter," said Mr. Neestr., "Dr. Adolph Heilbron of Berlin has called to my support, Dr. Helbron recently said, 'As a woman exercises more and more the field, she can manly to man, she also begins to assume a masculine growth of hair. This is not a theory but a fact backed by such anthropological authorities as Buckman, Branifield, Friendtinal and other learned men." "These scientists have already noted the feminine invasion of the industrial and business field, a increase in the number of women who show a tendency toward childbirth. According to my own observations, this increase is relatively quite remarkable."
"Evolution is a slow process. How many generations it will take for bearded hair to produce beards? It is impossible exactly to titrate.
