Defenders Of motion picture meth

excellent argument in refutat!on OF
the structures of Walter Pritchard
Eaton ON 'Peer 0ynt," which fosmed
the basis Of an article recently pub
lished by the well-known critic.
Mr.. Eaton objected to the motion
picture representation of the lbsen
poetic drama on the ground that II
gave people a totally unfair idea Of

the pictures Cyril Maude. who played
the part Of the unfortunate but
debonaire Peer" had done himself
a great injury. Mr.. Eaton declared
that the spirit of the motion picture
and the spirit of the lbsen play were
so totally different that there was
no point OF comparison.

PER CENT RAISE
ASKEDAT NAVY YARD

A IA per cent increase for the ma
chinists at Washington Navy Yard was
asked at a conference yesterday after
noon between Secretary Daniels and
other navy officials and representatives
Of the machinists and other skilled en-
ployes at the Yard.
Secretary Daniels has taken tho ques-
ton under advisement. and has prom
ised to make his decision known soon.
The men support their demand with
data, from private plants which. they
say. show the proposed increase is Jus,
titled. The increase would mean 58
cents more per day for drst-class ma
chinists.
The wage board report recently made
to the Secretary is understood to have
recommended a accent increase. This
Is not satisfactory to the union men.

FARRAR MAKES FILM
DEBUT IN "CARMEN"
Motion Picture Version Presented
Before Audience Of Local
Dramatic Critics.

Geraldine Farrar came to town yes
terday-in a can. No, the can did not
contain her ashes. but the Aim OF her
motion picture debut in Carmen"
The picture was presented before an
audience of local dramatic critics. mo-
ton picture exhibitors. and members
of the San Carlo Opera Company.
The film version was adapted by Cecil
r. DeMille. of the Paramount Film
Company. from Merimee's story of the
same name. the plot being also that of
Bizet's opera. Miss Farrar attracted
wide attention last winter by her initial
performance in the opera for the ind-
viduality with which she played her
part. hence her appearance in the mo-
tion picture version was awaited with
interest.
All sorts of rumors have roated
Company's studios in HOLLYWOOD. II
has been said that Miss Farrar signed
a contract calling for n limited work
ing day! that she delighted the other
film artists by singing while she dressed
in her magnificent suite. and that she
insisted upon fidelity to detail in all
her work
As matter Of fact. subsequent events
terested in Carmen" that she forgot
all about contract hours. and that she
ably abettod Director DeMille in i'm
buinE every member of the company
with the spirit or Seville.
The production was one of the most
expensive ever undertaken by film com
panN, not only because of the salary paid
the artists. but because of the cost OF
staging several incidental scenes as
well as the sensational bull tight.
