Producers to Curtail Drinking
and Smoking in Photoplay
Scenes in the Future.
WOULD LESSEN CRITICISM
Reformers Attack Showing Of
Vice and Liquor Dealers
Claim Misrepresentation.

Motion pictures show a tendency
TO Join the dry COLUMN,
Likewise there is an effort being
made to curtail their procuvities In
the matter of smoking cigarettes!
Much of which has been brought
about by the attitude of the progress
sive motion picture producer to clean
out the film plays and put some
thing that has more OF an idea and
less of promiscuous scenery about 1t
for the benefit Of film patrons.
The charge has been made not by
the censorship agltators. but tho
Iiauor dealers that the film Is mis-
representing places >where liquor Is
sold. The reformers who would
smother the showing OF things as
they are and would have Julius Cae-
sar die a natural death on the screen
because 1t Is bad form to show
murder to childrcn-these reformers
have protested against the showing
Of the interior of places where liquor
Is sold for much the same reason.
But the most vigorous protest
against almost everything in motion
pictures, beginning with a strenuous
denunciation Of pictures as pictures
comes from the liquor dealers. The
Lasky company has been accused by
one OF the big associations OF liquor
men OF being paid by the prohibition
interests to show saloons on the
screen as the lowest sort of dives.
The charge is. of course, absurd.
Saloons Decreased.
Statistics gathered by thoughtful
ministers and social service work.
ers who are doing their utmost to
encourage photoplay production
show that the number of saloons has
decreased throughout the country
very largely in proportion to the
increase in motion picture theaters.
This may or may not show the
animus behind the charge.
But the fact that there has been
a charge has been sufficient to make
some of the producers take notice
and to give orders to cut out the
saloon. dive. and cigarette smoking
as much as possible in photoplay
scenic displays. They all are in
terested In reducing to a minimum
everything that can possibly bring
pictures into disrepute.
A sample OF the way the thing is
being done Is shown in an order
sent to the directors OF the Uni
vcrsal companies by General Man
ager Joe Brant. Mr.. Brandt advises.
There are a great many instances
where men In their homes are seen
smoking cigarettes or cigars. where
the action of the play would be
just as interesting. just as force
full and just as impressive, and
would get over just as well. II the
participants did not resort to the
Use of tobacco in any of its forms.
Very often we find a situation
where a person takes a drink before
starting In to do some work which
has no vital bearing either In that
scene or in the plot.
III we can keep down this pro-
miacuous use OF both liquor and to-
bacco. We will be doing away with
an obnoxious, undesirable and other
wise unnecessary trend OF affairs"
