IOWA LABOR ACT is VALID.
Mcpherson Upholds State Statute for
Compensation for Workers.

Des Moines. la, June 23.-Judge Smith
Mcpherson OF the federal court handed
down an opinion yesterday upholding the
constitutionality OF the Iowa workmen's
compensation act, or employers liabil-
ity law.
'''Nearly all of the objections to this
statute are argued from the standpoint
of morals, propriety and police" reads
the courts opinion. "This statute may
have, and no doubt does have, many OBJ.
jectionable features, but that it is a
statute with right tendencies. | have
no doubt. All such legislation is mat
ter of growth and development, and in
the end, when mature as it ought to be
and quite likely will, beneficial results
viii be obtained. At all events, this leg
isIation cannot bring forth worse re-
suits than we have now as to these mat
tiers by court procedure"

ONE YARD OF KISS
LIMIT FOR MOVIES
They Mustn't Last Longer Than 80
Seconds, Rules Woman
Censor.

Philadelphia, Pa, June 23.-Mrs. Cyrus
Niyer, the only woman member of the
new state moving picture censorship
board, has come to the conclusion that
one yard of film is long enough for any
kiss, after several weeks spent here in
passing on thousands of yards of love
drama films.
Love scenes and historic romances,
thrilling escapes and runaways, harrow
ing deathbed repentances and wild elope-
ments, the excess of poverty and the ex-
treme of wealth, all pass in review be-
fore her. She judges each film frop the
viewpoint of adolescence.
VIII it harm the child? What effect
will it have on the grown boy or girl?
These are the questions Mrs Niver asks
herself.
She has sat through yards and yards
of kisses of every variety, and her ulti-
matum, after watching an embrace which
occupied five yards of film, was that
four yards should be eliminated and
that the young people should be torn
from each other after SO seconds of
OSCILLATION.
