BAN ON FIGHT PICTURES
Iowa Decision May Affect Moving
Picture Business Seriously

Council Bluffs, Ia, Dec. 22-The
action of Governor Carroll in holding
that it is Illegal to exhibit moving or
other pictures of a prize fight has
caused decided sensation in sport
ing and theatrical circles in Iowa.
The decision came about in this
Parties who were operating
a moving picture theatre had made
arrangements to secure the films of
the Johnson-Ketchel prize fight but
before putting them into action con-
cluded that they had better secure an
opinion from the executive for the
reason that in this state prize fight
ing is not only prohibited but partici-
pating in, promoting or even attend
ing a fight is made a felony.
The matter was referred to Cover
nor Carroll and in reply ne has stated
that under the provisions of the state
law the exhibition of such pictures is
positively prohibited He goes be-
yond this point and adds that the
Iowa laws specifically forbid showing
any moving picture of anything illeg
al continuing: IF the fight would not
have been allowed in Iowa the pic
ture of it certainly could not be
shown here"
That the decision on the prizefight-
ing picture is more far reaching is
what is worrying the show people
They contend that more than half of
the plays that are put on at the the
aires especially at those of the cheap
er class. portray the commission of
acts that are prohibited by the state
laws. For instance, in tragedy the
commission of murder is frequently
shown. 1t is nothing unusual to
show upon the stage of even the high
class theatres all over the state the
commission of burglary, robbery and
arson.

A Serious Matter

THE Vermont association DAIRY
is the largest in New England, if not
in the country having between six
and seven hundred members and its
object is as might be inferred from
the name TO promote dairying in this
state, says Secretary Fred l.. Davis
.of the association. Then, it surely
will be within the scope of the asso-
citation to start a movement toward
finding out why only one-half of the
contributing dairies, together with
New Hampshire's. meet the require
ments of the Massachusetts board of
health. is the Massachusetts, test
too high and unreasonable Or are
we sloyenly and slack? The Yer
mont Dairymen's association might
well include this matter in its pro
gram for discussion of the coming an
nual meeting in Burlington Barre
Times.
Vermont cannot afford to have it
said that its milk is so foul that no
body but Vermonters will use it. This
Massachusetts embargo is a serious
matter, not perhaps so much in the
actual dollars and cents value of the
amount Of milk involved in the trade
as in the unfortunate reputation Yer
mont dairying interests are getting
in neighboring states as the story
spreads. And stories lose nothing by
spreading as everybody knows.-St.
