"Movies, Capture the World

w. E. Aughinbaugh in Leslie's.
 The cinematograph is to be found all over the world. It has penetrated the remote frontier towns in China, India, Burma, Siam. the straits settle ments, Egypt and the Philippines. have attended moving picture shows in Damascus and in Jaffa. in Morocco and in Persia.
 Prior to the war English, German, Italian, Swiss. Spanish, Japanese. French and American companies were doing business everywhere All of the large centers had international film exchanges catering to the trade. The films produced by American and French companies were most in favor due to perfection in detail and orig inality of subjects. Today, however the war has suspended the operations Of the European and Japanese concerns and the moving picture exhibitor is forced to look principally to the United States for his films. The lack of photographic chemicals and the absence of the oth- CT indispensable necessities for this art also has had much to do with the present great scarcity of films. As a consequence reels made at the begin ming of this industry and which were shown in the early days from the met ropolitan cities to the backwoods towns of this country, are now in active sery- ice in various parts of the world.
 Due to the troubled condition of all of Europe the various theatrical, opera and circus companies that toured the world are no longer to be met with so that the moving picture theatres have taken their places and constitute the principal form of amusement for the population of the cities of Latin America and the orient.
 In China the motion picture shows a.t Hanin. Haifag. Tinkin. Hue, An nam, Peking. Canton. Shanghai and Hongkong are packed at every per- formance. In Calcutta. Madras Hyder- abad, Bombay, Ajmeer and Karrachi the loyalty of the native of India to the British government has been material ly stimulated by exhibiting on the screen in open air parks the Indian troops in bivouac and in action in Eu- rope.
 Latin America has always been a good field for the cinematograph. In the larger capitals like Rio De Janiero Montevideo. Buenos Aires. Santiago Lima and Havana the buildings in which exhibitions are given are the equal of any in this country.

a nickel of small consequence. All Of the money which the child earns, or which is given to it. is spent for shows, frequently without the parents knowl- edge. A careful watch on three children, members of a family in moderate cir cumstances, dependent upon an income of $95 a month. revealed the fact that in a week the three children spent s1.95 for moving picture shows and ice cream cones. The youngest of the shree chil- dren is but five years old. Figuring that the same amount is spent each week for a year. the total would be S101.40. If that amount were saved for the smallest child until 1t was ready for higher education. the sum would far exceed the amount usually spent for the college education of the boy or girl of moderate habits.
 of child is taught that the money given to it must be kept for useful purpose, it will soon learn to be a ju- dicious spender.'

LETTERS TO EDITOR
A Knock for Houston

A Knock for Houston
 To the Editor of The Age-Herald:
 1t was from The Age-Herald I clipped the following:
 TRAILING HOUSTON.
 From the Houston Post.
 Birmingham is going to issue $500,O00 worth of bonds for an auditorium, just six years late in following Houston's en- frightened example.
 Enlightened example? I was in Hous- ton about three months last year, con- fined in Greenwood's sanitarium. I was in this sanitarium the night of the gulf coast storm that played havoc with Gal weston, Houston and towns adjacent to these two Texas cities. Greenwood's san itarium was wrecked, but fortunately no lives were lost. I was taken from the sanitarium and esconsced in the Cotton hotel In Houston. It was while convales- ing I loitered along the streets, down by the ship channel and on the viaduct that I saw Houston's enlightened CD number of men suffering from some ailment that incapacitated them for work, who were too poor to pay for medical attention and without funds with which to buy food.
 Here is one case in particular that attracted my special attention. Three times one morning I had passed man
 
 viaduct Every time I passed he sat with his head in his hands, and the third time I noticed he was sobbing. He was about 35 years old He was sick and friendless. He had asked the author ities that he might rest in quiet until he recovered from sickness he had con- tracted in the low lands around Houston. At the emergency hospital the young doctors shook their heads. There was no city hospital. The eight charity beds of the million dollar Baptist infirmary were filled. So were the 26 charity beds at the Roman Catholic hospital. The city's charities could do nothing without violating rules. The best it could fur nsh was a slip of paper good for one nights bed at the Salvation Army mis- sion All morning that Saturday this man, Gods creature, sat with his head in his hands sobbing his heart out. Off, ficially the whole city seemed against him. A friendly druggist had given him box of auinne. So this sick man walked the streets of Houston!
 He saw all the wealth of large city He saw the skyscrapers. The city of homes and it's magnificent churches. Millions of dollars worth of automo- piles whizzed by on the streets. Hun dreds of the ship channel city's people has willingly given $3.50 a plate to banquet William Jennings Bryan This poor. sick man saw Houston's million

dollar auditorium. but he saw nary leetle" hospital for the poor and indi- gent, and yet these people worship man they say was born in a manager The last I saw of this poor man he was sitting on the stone abuttment of the viaduct. He may have been helped by individuals or he may have died of neg feet. Yes.

THE WORLDS MONEY MARKET

When the prediction which was made in April by the Deutsche bank of Ber- lin, and which has also been made by others, that New York is to exchange places with London al the worlds money center is discussed in the financial dis trict, it is sometimes said that no per manent change of that kind can be es- tablished until dollar exchange supplants pound sterling exchange. Some progress is being made in the establishment of dollar exchange and it may be that in little while there will be an expansion Of it. There has been some embarra ssment for Americans who have been selling metals to Europe whwich has been occa- stoned by the fact that the American ex- porters were compelled to draw in terms of pounds sterling, francs. or lire on the purchasers. These bills were then sold in the New York market. But the fall in exchange was so great that Americans who sold copper, spelter and other metals in foreign markets were in danger of serious loss by reason of that fall.
 Leopold Frederick, who assisted in in- troducng dollar exchange in Chile, made the suggestion to the foreign purchasers of metals that they open 9O-day sight credits in dollars with New York banks. Gradually this suggestion is being adopted, and within little while dollar credits, amounting to millions in all, have been opened on account Of French and Italian firms, the largest credit of this kind being with an important trust Other credits were opened with number of the international banking houses. It remains for London banks to open such dollar credits in New York. But they are reluctant Probably they know what per manent establishment of dollar exchange means.

maximum earning power. since it was the understanding that almost all of the plants of the corporation were op- erated to full capacity.
 Nevertheless, earnings of as much as S7O, 100000 for single quarter, a worlds record as that would be, would show either that prices have consid . erably advanced or else the Full ca pacity of the plants had not been reached.
 Those who are familiar with some feature of the management of the Unit ed States Steel corporation say that it reflects to a great extent the Judgment, influence and practical experience of Henry Clay Prick. There is no disposl- tion to detract in any way from the co operating influence of others who are leaders in the management of the cor poration, but MT. Prick is regarded as after all the central influence and au- thority.
 MT. Prick is now at his summer home at Pride's Crossing, near Beverly, Mass There presumably he will remain until mid autumn. His country place is one of the finest on the Atlantic coast, and it furnishes him not merely the recre- ation which he needs. mental and phys ical but also opportunities for cultivat- ing his artistic tastes. which are known to be as highly developed already as are or have been those of any Ameri can prominent in business life.
 Looking back to the mid-autumn of 1914 and from that point following the course of the Steel corporation to the present day. it Is regarded as inn possible to escape the inference that it has been managed with consummate skill. The action of the company when the days were darkest in deciding n not to reduce wages, but instead to mair tain them and to pass the common div idend reflects the view of all the man. agers. but it is the understanding that it was earnestly recommended by MT. Prick himself not only from business point of view. but also al reflecting his should be established between employees and employers
 If it should be reported that the second quarters earnings of this corporation were approximately T0,000,000, then in view of the heavy demands for the products of the corporation that are now being made and are likely to be continued it is thought not to be unreasonable to pre- dict like earnings for the third and fourth quarters. Should this prediction be jus tified by the event, then the corporation will have made the extraordinary record within two years time of having ad- vanced from a condition which repre- sented almost no earnings to the greatest yearly income of any industry probably in the world And as the corporation has declined to accept orders for war ma terials or munitions, it is also regarded as reasonable to infer from the condition of the company what the genera! pros- perity of the United States now is.

Colonel Colson's Record

To the Editor of The Age-Herald:
 In MT. Roberts Washington letter in today's Age-Herald regarding the duty of Congressmen who belong to the National Guard, he states that the only precedents they might follow are those set by Gen eral Wheeler, who served in the Spanish war on leave of absence without pay, and General Logan, who resigned his seat to serve in the Civil war.
 I should like to submit the case of Col. David Colson, a congressman of Ken lucky in 1898, who promptly resigned his seat to serve "to the end. of the war with the Fourth Kentucky infantry. Yours very truly, c. R. BARKER.

Movies Breaking Nickel Ranks

In the fam1ly's money department uf the July American Magazine a writer says:
 Since the opening of the nickel movies. the little banks which former ly held the small savings of the young CT members of families have dwindled until they are a thing of the past. Sun day school teachers say that the movies have much to do with decreases in Sunday school treasuries.

PAYING FOR LOCOMOTIVES

Almost coincident in point of time with the highly successful negotia tion of the large Russian loan in the United States and the reciprocal establishment in Rus
 sia may within few weeks be found to have placed orders in the United States and in Canada for not less than 800 loco motives, and possibly for as many as thousand. Presumably, Russia will take advantage of the facilities that the Amer ican bankers and American investors have furnished her to obtain the funds with which to pay for these locomotives.
 Those who have had excellent oppor
 tunities for learning what the disposi- tion of Russia nof is toward home in
 dustry report that the empire will not delay railroad construction until after the war, but will carry it on upon a large scale, intending to increase building of that kind after the war is over. This means undoubtedly great exports from American manufa cturers of locomotives and railroad equipment to Russia
