London, Sept.11.\u2014®\u2014Great Britain intensified naval and economic warfare against Germany today, having lost twelve merchantmen in the first eight days of what the Cabinet regards a?a war that will last at least three years.Public opinion also seemed inclined toward preparations for a long war and scorned what were presumed to be German intentions of offering peace if and when Poland is conquered.The press almost unanimously backed up the Cabinet's decision to base its policy on the premise of a long war, regarding the announcement as Britain\u2019s answer to a \u201cpeace feeler\" in Field Marshal Hermann Goering\u2019s speech Saturday.Furthermore, dispatches indicated the final blows against Poland were not imminent.War correspondents, whose reports are just beginning to reach England, stressed that Poland\u2019s army still is intact, and that withdrawal always has been part of the Polisli plans.The twelfth British ship sent to the bottom was the 8,640-ton Magdapur.The Ministry of Information announced her sinking last night with an undisclosed number of casualties, but did not announce how or where she was sunk.The 2,796-ton Goodwood was re-| - ported by the British Press Association yesterday to have been sunk in the North Sea, and the Information Ministry added the name of the 4,-086-ton Rio Claro, sunk Wednesday, to the official list.A fishing vessel was said to have -escued the crew of the Goodwood, many of whom were reported hurt.The crew of the Rio Claro was said to have been landed in the Azores by a Netherlands vessels.The Government\u2019s answer was two-fold.It swung- into an \u2018\u2018unremitting\u201d campaign of \u201cattacks and counter-measures,\u201d and, secondly, extended machinery for its \"contraband control\u20191 through stations in Gibraltar and Alexandria, at both ends of the Mediterranean, and at Ceylon in the Indian Ocean.No details were given in a communique which said \u201cIt appears that German submarines are now operating far afield.\u201d But the Ministry of Information said the Admiralty had received \u201cnumerous reports\u201d of operations against German submarines and \u201cprobably some have been successful.\u201d The Admiralty reported the navy is \u201cparticularly busy in waters about the British Isles and the Atlantic.\u201d It mentioned \u201cp o s s i b 1 e success\u201d against one submarine minelayer, but no definite results were given for flotillas of destroyers the ministry said are active.\u201cWhile we have incurred the loss of various merchant ships through submarine operations,\u2019 the Admiralty declared, \u201cmany, more enemy merchantmen have been captured or sunk or driven to take refuge in neutral harbors in many parts of the world.\u201d It added a convoy system soon would be operating \u201cwith the r-'ult that U-boat sinkings will tend to de- San Francisco, Sept.11.\u2014(TP)\u2014 ^\u2018Attention, waiters\u2014absolutely no jwar discussion with our patrons\u201d ! reads a sign in a restaurant on San i Francisco\u2019s famed fisherman\u2019s wharf.| \u201cWe don\u2019t want any war in here\u2014 ;Just shrimps, crabs, fish and people Iwho like to eat \u2019em\u201d explains Mionio jCeragrli, head waiter.* * * Raleigh, N.C., Sept.11.\u2014(7P1\u2014The : tobacco belts of the Carolinas began i clearing warehouse floors today in preparation for a selling holiday brought on by the European war and subsequent withdrawals of buyers by the Imperial Tobacco Company of .Great Britain.* » \u2022 : London, Sept.11.\u2014IP)\u2014A thirty-year-old clerk who created confusion by hurling a suitcase of slogan-inscribed rubber balls into a Downing Street crowd was sentenced ; today to four weeks at hard labor.!

tions she was getting ready for any i emergency.Thousands of reserve | troops were moved to the western frontier in connection with what Tass called the \u201cmore and more wide and threatening character\u201d of the German-Polish war.It was understood the Government was requisitioning certain supplies in large quantities, especially sugar.Garrisons on the west were strengthened as the possibility appeared that Germany\u2014with her armies driving eastward in Poland \u2014might establish a common frontier with the Soviet Union.COMMITS SUICIDE Devon, Pa\u201e Sept, 11.\u2014(TP)\u2014Socially prominent Clayton Platt, twenty.was shot and killed last n.ght in the kitchen of his home ne;ir here.Police, who described Platt as the grandson of former Senator William McAdoo.said the youth apparently committed suicide.By ELMER PETERSON, (Associated Press Staff Writer) Sniatyn, Poland, Sept.11.\u2014 (TP) \u2014(By courrier to the Polish-Ruma-nian frontier) \u2014 Germany\u2019s assault has delivered a hard blow to the Polish army, but many observers believe there has been no knockout punch.Military reports have been meagre\u2014there is not even an estimate of Polish casualties \u2014 but there is evidence the Poles have saved the bulk of their mechanized equipment.Poles still are hopeful, pointing out Polish commanders expected a swift, powerful German drive which might disorganize defences temporarily.German warplanes have penetrated Eastern Poland in search of new Polish airdromes, but the fate of Poland\u2019s air force still is in doubt.Also unknown is the situation of an estimated 100,000 Polish troops believed caught in a German pincer movement in Pomerania.An army of 1,000,000 Poles, however, is being massed for a stand on the East bank of the Vistula river.Others are preparing a line of resistance along the Bug river, inarching by night and hiding by day from enemy warplanes.The German air attacks have been widespread and devastating, creating confusion which, if it continues, might see further German gains.One section of Lwow (Lemberg) was reported burning yesterday after an air attack in which, it was reported through neutral sources, German aircraft machine-gunned streets, causing panic among the civilian population.For foreign diplomats, their families and staffs\u2014who must follow the Government\u2014their 400-mile trek to this tiny village near the Russian frontier has been a nightmare.The wife of one diplomat took ordinary needle and thread to sew up a deep gash in the head of a French embassy official\u2019s wife.Their automobile toppled into a ditch when the chauffeur fainted from fatigue.BORDER CITIES BECOME REFUGEE CAMPS Cernauti, Rumania (near the Polish Frontier), Sept.11.\u2014(TP) \u2014 Cities and villages in the Rumanian border Province of Bukowina were becoming vast refugee camps today as thousands of Polish civilians, fleeing before the invading German army, crossed the frontier in search of safety.Although none of the Polish border towns has yet been bombed, all were reported taking precautions against air raids.In some places even the lighting of matches was Continued on Pago 2, Col.5.)

next comes the tiered skirt, ,e., rows of frills\u2014anything from chree to seven starting somewhere n the region of the knees and often carried in an upward movement to he back of the waistline.For the lithe, slim silhouette, the jegtop hobble skirt, with emphasis in the hip draperies, and deep slit center front or sides, is indicated, fhe tunic skirt, featuring anything from one to three tunic flounces\u2014 iome more or less flared-\u2014is another leweomer, while the tied-in sheaf ikirt, with all the fullness dragged lack and secured somewhere at the lack of the knees, is another style kill of drama and allure.Remember that bosom and hips ire stressed.The waists arc.waspier han ever (they are bow known as valtz waists) and that boned corsets, aced-up at the back, have maae a lefinite bid for favor.This makes fflpl #1IP ViVI.-.M ivIVi Striped fabrics were headlined during the recent fall showings.~ & This evening gown by Jean Desses shows hack treatment to give the I bustle effect without actually having one.It is of black taffeta with satin stripes in black, bright blue and while.The bustle effect at the back is continued in the very full godet train, contrasting with the straight front.HERE'S VERY SUCCESSFUL \u201cFORMULA FOR FAILURE\u201d When they meet a new person, some women follow a Failure Formula that never misses.In half an hour they can make themselves thoroughly disliked.It\u2019s an easy formula to follow\u2014 and it always works.First, speak n a whining, dissatisfied or positive tone of voice.Second, be determined to talk about yourself, your troubles or your triumphs.Third, when the other person docs get a chance to toll you about his vacation or his work, say something that makes him look anything but fortunate.Something on the order of \u201cI\u2019m afraid 1 can\u2019t envy you your cruise.I took one once and that was enough for me.I was never so bored in my life.\u201d Fourth, act a little bored at whatever is going on.Especially if you are a stranger and people expect you to be impressed.If You Ate Still Around Fifth, criticize as many things as you can in as short a time as possible.Sixth, when others arc talking don't look or act interested in anything they have to say.Seventh, say \u201c1 disagree with you\u201d about something.It doesn\u2019t matter what.Eight, make positive generalities like, \u201cNobody could possibly like that show.\u201d Or \u201cAnyone is -illy who thinks so-and-so.\u201d Ninth, if you have travelled more than the people with you, be sure to compare everything here with the way things are in other countires.Tenth, before you leave be sure to let everyone know what a busy, important person you arc\u2014and how much you are in demand.And that will be one group that will let you strictly alone.AT SPAFFORD-LEWIS WEDDING sfSppL -, AT r ¦ lÉSÜiÉ «flip ¦.S-Sÿ-vxSN ~-LTT' * .\u2022;.'w:.;
