Cc—6 Miami Apariments Adopt Short-Term Rental Basis MIAMI, Jan. 24 (Special).—For the first time in history more than 500 members of the Greater Miami Apartment House Association have agreed to rent their furnished apartments on a weekly, bi-monthly or monthly basis for the duration, starting as low as $21 weekly per couple in the better neighborhoods. A survey disclosed other apartments for as low as $10 weekly per couple. Heretofore apartments could only be rented for “the season,” bringing anywhere from $350 to $2,500 for & : four, five or six month period. 8. G. Gilman, president of the association, said today that so many winter tenants had requested short- term leases, due to defense activities in the North, that he had appealed to all members of the association to offer short-term rentals.

Tailored Comfort - |Dragonmaker Brightens Up Characterizes Style |Monsters for Newear At Miami Beach Hats Come Back Into Fashion, Even at Sports Events MIAMI BEACH, Fla, Jan. 34— | Clothes can make the feminine holl- day at Miami Beach, but they won't break it. In other words, they can lend zest to milady’s enjoyment, but withal she can dress to please her- self. ‘Well-tailored comfort is a keynote with the ladies this season. Narrower and carefully fitted slacks are more important than ever. Practically every one of the famous shops on Lincoln road is featuring them. Many are shown in combination with & jacket and often with a skirt to match. Shorts More Popular. If the feminine visitor is the type, she will find shorts increasingly pop- ular too. This year they are narrower and longer, reaching almgst to the knee. Cottons, ginghams and piques are in the spotlight. Simple but well- | tailored, they provide comfort with- | out sacrificing the smartness which every woman desires. This desire Tor comfort extends even to dinner pa- jamas for entertaining in the own | home, Extremely feminine, they look exactly like evening wear and yet | preserve the initial comfort of their | pajama design. Spectator-type shoes with open toes still lead the fleld. Mdny have open backs with just a strap to hold them. Hats Back in the Sun. Hats are almost universal in Miami Beach as women attempt to look their most attractive in times of stress. A fashion authority noted that 90 per cent of the women in attendance at the recent Orange Bowl football game wore hats, in confirmation of reports by milliners that this important article of ap- parel has found once more its right- ful place in the sun. Casual felts are seen everywhere. Dressy hats are finding favor for cocktail and eve- ning wear and more formhl occa- sions find such things as lace and little jeweled and sequined calots very much in evidence.

C, Jan. 24—The 150th anniversary of the establish- ment of Raleigh as the capital of North Carolina will be observed here during the week of April 26, with the largest historical celebra- tion in State annals, Raleigh, like Washington, was se- lected as the site for a capital and struction, The capital of North Carolina, when the Legislative Com- mittee purchased the necessary land from Joel Lane, was a wooded wild- erness. Raleigh now is the State’s fifth largest city. A historical pageant with a cast of 1,000 will feature the celebra- tion, and there is a movement afoot for the erection of a statue to Sir Walter Raleigh in the Capitol Square to be unveiled as the climax of the | observance.

Around him are shelves piled high with bright bolts of silk from Hong Kong. From the ceiling hang clus- ters of metal reflectors, which Tong uses on his dragons to dash light into the eyes of evil spirits when the creatures are paraded through the streets. Lee Tong drapes yards and yards of silk over his workbench. With deft fingers he cuts it into desired lengths, then securely sews the shimmering material over a wood- and-wire framework. Gradually, the creature takes form—long, silken body with flashing reflectors; huge, glaring eyes; bright Chinese colors. Lee Tong takes great pride in his work. His dragons are found in o LEE TONG, Monsters. Chinatowns throughout the United States. But in San Francisco’s Chinatown, largest in the country, his finest creations are displayed. On festive occasions, such as the Chinese New Year, February 14-21, Lee 's dragons serpentine through the crowded streets, carried on the shoulders of young Chinese. Pirecrackers pop-pop in the wake of the writhing monsters and smoke encircles the silken, scintillating heads. After the ceremonies, when China- town has quieted down somewhat, the dragons, large and small, are brought to Lee Tong's shop for | minor repairs—torn silk coverings, |lost reflectors, damaged chin- whiskers. With infinite patience, the little dragonmaker readies the monsters for the next Chinese cele- bration. By. MAJ. GEORGE FIELDING ELIOT. ‘There is certainly no occasion for over-optimism as to the situation in the Pacific, which is full of uncer- | tainties and perils. Nothing could | be worse for us than to indulge in false hopes, to be followed by sicken- | ing reaction. Yet having said this, | it is necessary to remark that at the | moment, the over-all strategical pic- | ture does look a little brighter for | the Allies. | The Japanese are being compelled, in their desperate attempts to di- | vert and delay the arrival of Allied strength in the critical area border- | ing the South China Sea, to spread themselves out farther and farther. Now they are reported in New Guinea and the Bismarck Archi- | pelago. Japanese there are a long way from home, a long way from | any sup}mrc save that which may come from the Caroline Islands, themselves not too well supplied.or too strong. | The Japanese are taking all sorts of risks to buy a little more time for their troops in Malaya. This is {1 the primary and immediate reason for all their island operations south and southeast of the Philippines. Quick and Easy Step. There are, however, indications that the opposition 1is growing stronger. For example, the Japa- nese advance from Davao to Jolo, from Jolo to British Borneo, was & quick and easy succession of steps. From British Borneo to Tarakan it took longer. The small Dutch | gatrison on Tarakan put up a fierce | fight, Dutch and American planes | cost the Japanese heavy losses. | Prom Tarakan to the next point | southward along the Strait of Ma- | cassar, Balikpapan, has proven very | much tougher going. Dutch planes smashed heavily at a Japanese con- voy in the strait, making hits cn eight ships. Off Balikpapan itself, the Dutch air force has struck again, hitting three ships. In the Molucca passage, east of Celebes, the Japanese having es- tablished themselvés on the Mina- to be able to develop operations to the southward. All this means that on the general line Singapore, Sura- baya, Amboina, the centers of Allied resistance, are growing stronger, and if this strength continues to in- crease, the Allies will be able to develop offensive power which will begin to make itself felt. It should be remembered that the Japanese were able to overwhelm our fighter force in Luzon and drive away our bombers because of the comparatively few airfields available to us. On the other hand, they have been able to do nothing to diminish the vigor of the Dutch air opera- STEAMSHIPS. hassa Peninsula, they do not seem | Allied Situation in Far East Seen as Improving Slightly Spreading of Japanese Lines Is Held Optimistic Factor for Enemy Nations tions off the Borneo Coast because the canny Dutch have prepared 50 hidden airdromes on that great | island, over which their squadrons can be distributed so that Japanese | bombers can never hope, save by | pure chance, to catch any great part of the Dutch air force on the ground. It is this faet which is responsible for the heavy Japanese shipping losses all round the island of Borneo during the past seven weeks. The Dutch have reaped a rich harvest from their sound tac- tical forethought. Stretching Out Activities, Now the Japanese, In stretching out the operations of their air force to such distant points as Tarakan, Jolo, Kuching, Davao, Minahassa and Fabaul, become themselves de- pendent on a few fixed locations, | 88 opposed to an enemy which has many emergency fields and pos- sesses the direct backing of power- ful concentrations of aircraft at large defended bases such as Sura- baya, Amboina and Port Darwin. The continent of Australia and the large Dutch islands afford far greater air-base capacity than do the outlying bases seized by the Japanese. If Allied air power can be as- sembled quickly enough it can cer- tainly overwhelm the Japanese or force them to withdraw from their outposts. One danger is that the Japanese may occupy several points on the big island of New Guinea, but this island, having no interior communi- cations and no avatlable military Tesources, is not to be compared with Australia as a base. Hence, given time, the Japanese cannot hope to stay where they are. Allied air power must move forward from Australia, north and north- west, covering and supporting the advance of Allied naval power. The difficulty lies entirely in the time factor. If Singapore is lost while all this is going on, if the Japanese can move into the South China Sea in full force, attack Java ond Sumatra, dominate the Strait of Sunda and send their cruisers into the Indian Ocean, 6ur problem becomes immensely more difficult. If, on the other hand, the Japa- nese can be driven out of their ad- vanced positions and Allied air and naval power can again approach the South China Sea, the far-flung Japanese sea communications will 4mmediately become precarious and their whole scheme of operations will be in danger of collapse.

Yet here again | a hopeful sign is the heavy losses of Japanese aircraft in their attack |on Rangoon. The flyegrs there say, “If only we had more planes.” More planes and yet more planes is the need of the hour in the South- | western Pacific, with other things to come later. That bombers are beginning to arrive, we have had several evidences; that fighters have reached Singapore, we know. It will be a slow process, but we have been at war for seven weeks| and we have not been idle. The distances are great. Now is the time when the first signs of our efforts are beginning to be apparent and it seems likely that other signs | will come in increasing measure. Certainly we may expect the Japanese to do all they can to in- terrupt our lines of communication. ‘While the Dutch hold the Strait of | Sunda, the Japanese cannot do much to stop our flow of shipping | in the all-important Indian Ocean. Their move into the Solomon Islands looks as though they might be trying to eut in on our shipping to Australia. If they become suffi- clently hard pressed. they may risk larger forces in this direction, so that naval actions of greater or less proportions, involving attacks on convoys and similar operations, may well take place. It is fortunate that all our ap- | proaches to Australia, from the Pa- cific and Indian Oceans, ere far distant from Japan. and that we ought to fight at considerable ad- vantage against anv Japanese at- tempt to interfere with those ap- proaches. Both Australia and New Zealand have well-equipped naval and air bases, whereas injured Japanese ships in these waters have little chance of getting to a home repair yard, Long-range aircraft can be used by us, but can be used by the Japanese only in small numbers and with great difficuity. The small Japanese aircraft car- riers, ideal for the inter-island work they have been doing in smooth waters, are far less valuable out in the broad ocean lanes. Here are many factors—by no means all the factors—in an in- credibly complex situation. Here is no cause for complacency, but here certainly is no cause for despair. | aprons, 150 waiters’ coats, 2,000 nap- | 18334 pounds of fresh sausage, 91.- By JACQUES FUTRELLE, Jr, Travel Bditor.
