"VICTORY SUIT" DROPPED IN AUSTRALIA
(Rec. I p.m.) CANBERRA, March 20. The restrictions on men's clothing styles have been modified. Doublebreasted coats and false trouser cuffs are now permitted. The Minister of War Organisation and Industry. Mr. J. J.

Tailors see in the Minister's announcement a belated admission that his '.'victory suit" has been a failure.
