THE appearance of some Swiss maprazines containing pic-
tures of extravagantly large, Paris-styled hats, has
thrown the Fifth avenue fashion dictators into tailspin. The
jitters have even spread to WashiiiKton.
It seems that some weak-kneed patriot in the hat de-
sipninjr business could not resist copying these creations,
which use more veiling and other material than wartime law
allows. Equally weak-kneed customers bouKht them. Their
contrast to the pancake austerity of other cha|>eaux created
a storm on cafe society.
The millinery stabilization committee sounded the tocsin
in Washington and sent telegrams warning members of the
industry to lie on their yuan). The FBI took a look at the !
insidious magazines. A WPB spokesman—whose name
couldn’t be used—was quoted thus by a New York paper:
“The third ‘Swiss’ publication featuring Paris styles
to come within two weeks has dispelled the last doubt that
the Nazis are waging psychological warfare against the
American fashion industry. The purpose of their scheme
is to introduce styles in America which cannot be pro-
duced within the limitations of government material con- i
servation oroer . . .”
