The Moring.PIcture Problem.

New YORK World.
More than 200 active members Of
the Moving-Picture Exhibitors Asso-
citation have voted TO petition the
Board of Aldermen for the establish
ment of a censorship with legal power
to prohibit the use of films with an
immoral tendency.
Much of the objection to immoral
moving picture performances has
grown out of the common use of Pari-
sian films that know no joke but the
domestic trouble To these have been
added scenes of crime and violence
of native manufacture. But neither Of
these would ever have grown to such
menacing proportions but for the cul-
pable carelessness of American par
ents about the influences surrounding
their children. But for parental ne
glect the need Of censorship would be

M o MAN who is sane enough to manage a
newspaper would appear as the defender Of
bribery and debauchery vi the ballot We have
not heard that Colonel Theodore Townsend of the
Milford Chronicle either personally or through
his newspaper has defended the violation of the
laws of his State relating to the suffrage and the
attempt of Democratic newspapers 10 make it
seem that Colonel Townsend is an open defender
of bribery and corruption is no credit to them

II was highly proper, however, that Major Mitch

attention of Colonel Townsend to the matter at
once although the latter would have taken up the
subject himself.
The interest of the State Chairman was. in the
EFFORT OF the Democrats to make it appear that the
Republicans were planning TO carry on a cam

be further from the truth. Colonel Townsend ex-

The playground movement is alive in Reading

of how are the Fairgrounds to be secured unless
the city borrows money in order to purchase them.
We trust Reading will not have the experience
that Wilmington has habitat of buying ground
at high figures unsuitable for the purpose If
Reading should have such bad luck, the playground
movement in that city will strike rock as it has
done in Wilmington.
