The big influx of Polish. repa- triates from Soviet Russia ‘and western European countries Has. given government officials a double-barreled headache. ..They, explain they had trouble enough trying to find shelter for the 400,000 people already in War-. saw, but now with 300,000 more. their job of finding housing facil- ities borders upon the impossible Warsaw’s pre = war population was 1,300,000. Officials believe that total again -will be reached within six months if the present trend continues. It is the goverfiment’s plan ‘to send most of the repatriates into Polatid’s new western territories and thus give Warsaw a better chance to rebuild while simulta- neously developing the lands ac- quired from Germany. In the imeantime; however, the govern- ment does have to try to find living space for the tens of thousahds wWHo have, to stay in Warsaw for weeks or months be- fore they move on!

For her ultramodern grand-; daughters, they of thé stream- lined silhouette and the strato- sphere ambitions, are going back to hoop skirts. Newest conversation piece on; the summer fashion horizon ‘is |the good old-fashioned . hoop skirt, built on the sarae priuciple, | War {as those worn by Civil belles. The designer who launched}, this startling pendulum fashion; is Adele Simpson, who decided! if hips were in style again she would put hoops around them. The summer evening gowns she shows have a daguerrotype charm all their own, and conservative souls can wear them without the | hoops, if they like. In that casé they become merely slimwaisted, full-skirted dresses. Miss Simpson also uses an in- genious method of cutting and) tucking to produce a modified version of the hoop skirt for street wear. She calls it the “Jantern front”. It is a skirt with front about ‘the hips.
