If she likes a dress shown in a newspaper or magazine, she makes one like it for herself. Eleanor Zaharis has won many prizes for her exceptional sewing. She starts first with good material, tests it for wrinkles, chooses a pattern carefully and sets to work. She refuses to rush through the sewing, but takes extra care to assure an attractive and satisfying result. Before she became an expert at sewing, Marie Weisheit made many mistakes, but you would never guess it now. Along with making her own clothes, Marie does most of the mending and darning for her family Sewing isn't difficult if you have patience, says Rhua Slavens, who has made numerous hats and bags, a winter coat, and a coat and suit. She admits, however, that she started sewing by making a tea towel! Ruth Erb thinks It is a crime to let good material go to waste, so she takes clothing and, using her style sense, creates many fashion sensations. Ruth thinks everyone should go through the rag bag or the pile of discarded clothing from time to time to get material for skirts, shorts, jerkin, blouse and other garments. Special occasions do not bother Kathryn Johnson, for she makes any outfit she wants. Her father's old silk shirts, discarded 20 years ago, provided her with a blouse.

Billie McCoy estimates that she has saved over $300 by making her own clothing during the last few years.

This town, deadly afraid of peacetime boredom, pricked up its ears and licked its chops when Pat Hurley issued his stentorian resignation as ambassador to China. It then settled down to enjoy a good show. Washington has known Pat ever since 1912 when as a dashing young attorney from Oklahoma he used to appear before congressional committees for the Choctaw nation, and they know he always puts on a good show. Once in testifying before the senate insular affairs committee as secretary of war, Pat shouted: "You cannot call me a liar. You can run your sessions without me. I have taken all I can stand." Whereupon he flounced out of the room. Pat apSome years earlier, peared before the house Indian affairs committee to oppose opening the tribal rolls of the Choctaw nation to certain Indians who claimed they were euchered out of their tribal lands. And he was severely criticized by Webster Ballinger, who pointed out that just two years before. Hurley had represented the Wards, an Indian family which sought to have the Choctaw tribal rolls opened. Thus Hurley was in the position of arguing on both sides of the same question in the brief period of two years. Pat was not quite as ferocious in those days, however, and for some unexplained reason did not threaten to kick Ballinger out of the committee room. PATRICK J. O'HURLEY Pat Hurley has come a long way from those days when Oklahoma Born was an Indian territory. O'Hurley, he dropped the "O" and the Catholic religion of his father to become a Baptist, and after working his way through an Indian college, he had the courage to come to Washington, take a law degree at George Washington, and marry the daughter of Adm. Henry B. Wilson, then and now one of the most beautiful ladies in the capital. It is a long way from such lowly beginnings to his more recent interviews with Joe Stalin, his airplane flights through the Near East, and his powerful position as the right bower of Generalissimo Chiang But Pat has staged a colorful personal row at almost every milestone along the way. In Chungking, he first rowed with Gen. Al V.'edemeyer over the question of sending a mission to the Communist section of China to evaluate the importance of its military strength. For a while he and Wedemeyer weren't speaking to each other though they occupied adjoining bedrooms in the same Truman Seen as Standard Bearer of the Democratic Party; Dewey Faces Fight In New York to Stay in GOP Race. -- By BAUKIIAGE News Analyst and Commentator. WNU Service, 1616 Eya Street N.W., Washington, D. C. National elections still are three years away, but Washington politicians and news correspondents particularly the latter already are selecting "men to be watched." The next campaign will be normal in at least one respect, namely, that the Democratic candidate for all practical purposes already has been chosen. Unless the party's hierarchy wishes to cor.fess it failure of a policy of governn-.en- t has espoused with only occasional departures, the ticket will be headed by President Harry S. Truman. As a matter of fact, that can now be dismissed from conjecture; unless fate intervenes, Truman is the candidate. However, passing of a President and the elimination from the political scene r,'i an incumbent in the vice presidency, plus election of a Democratic mayor" in New York City havci combined to encourage election forecasting. Mayor-elec- t William. O'Dwyer will not figure but because he ran roughshod over the nominee of Governor Thomas E. Dewey, head of the Republican national ticket in 1944, he hiis brought national implications into what otherwise would have been simply a municipal ballot. Who will be Truman's running mate, currently is a popular subject of debate in political circles. Whom the Republicans will place on their ticket runs a close second. Taking those developments up in inverse order, attention first comes to Governor Dewey. His was the presidential chance discounted by the election of O'Dwyer in New York City, over Josiah Goldstein, former Democrat turned Republican a circumstance that didn't help him one bit in an overwhelmingly Democratic community headed for the past 12 years by MjOr LaGuardia. The Little Flower defied description by party label, but his replacement on January 1 will be regarded as substitution of a Democrat for a Republican. No one familiar with New York state politics needs to be told how poor are the chances of a candidate for governor who lacks city support. Dewey faces the New York electorate two years hence. And he does it, recent history indicates, without city backing. If he fails to gain another term at Albany, that, plus his defeat for the presidency, just about ends him as a contender. Strong GOP Competitors Loom Assuming, if only for the sake of developing the thought, that this diagnosis by Washington scribes is accurate, upon whom does the mantle fall? The subject becomes difficult at that Juncture, but there are two who stand out so far in front of other aspirants as to make them virtually alone in the field. One is a disciple of the old school, in polthe other an iticsthe former. Senator Arthur latVandenburg of Michigan; the Stas-sen ter, former Governor Harold of Minnesota. A close third, and a vigorous contender. Is John Bricker of Ohio. A political catalogue could hardly record three more differing types. Senator Vandenburg is the most politically orthodox of the three. His experience in public life has been confined wholly to the United States senate, but he has made the best of every political break. A forceful orator, he captures headlines, is known throughout the country. There is no bluster to his oratory; it has been pointed at specific objects and he has clicked. With the country facing an era of international dealings of transcendent importance, he is well versed in world affairs. He was chosen over several other illustrious party members as a Republican delegate to the United Nations conference at San Francisco, where he acquitted himself ultra-moder- n bag shown here are from Book of the series of booklets offered with these articles.

It was labeled the President's Both Conference. sides, of the nation, know it and the rest was Vandenburg's. Former Governor Stassen stands in a position to become the first veteran of World War II to become President, just as the incumbent, President Truman, is the first veteran of World War I to achieve that high estate. Stassen has youth plus experience as the chief administrator of a state which is important politically and geographically. Like Vandenburg, he also was a delegate to San Francisco, but in any frank appraisal of their roles in international politics, he must give ground to the Michigan senator. However, Stassen has captured popular imagattiination by his forward-lookintude toward the tantamount subject He of the day, the atomic bomb. has a faculty for capitalizing on issues. Governor Bricker faces the drawback that "he's been to the well" before.

That he has made a splendid state administrator even Democrats admit. What he lacks is recognition outside his own state; he has suffered from the accusation that he is provincial. His declarations on foreign affairs as a vice presidential candidate a year ago weren't marked for their profundity, weren't convincing. Unless all present plans miscarry, Bricker will try for the United States senate. That would give him the national sounding board he needs. Bricker is handsome (an attribute which cannot be overlooked in these days of women's vote), he's an able speaker and a war veteran. The latter will be a factor to be carefully weighed when the 1948 ticket is made up. And this time he'll have the wholehearted support of Senator Robert A.
