Archival Halls Urged as Fire Safe for Government Records
Immediate construction of an archives building in Washington to house valuable federal records is urged by Lieut. Col. Clarence C. Sherrill. He also calls for a new building for the General Accounting Office and a separate one for the Bureau of Internal Revenue to centralize operations and reduce fire risk. Plans await congressional funding this year.

Paris Adopts Longer Skirts and Sleeves in 1921 Fashion
Paris fashion writers note a strong move to longer skirts and much longer sleeves in the 1921 season. Dresses, coats, and salts feature extended waists and draped lines to elongate the figure, with bold sleeve designs, bright belts, and varied trims. Velvet and fine fabrics appear with a shift away from heavy black toward violets, reds, and greens.
