moral support Of Newark. Jersey City
and Weehawken in their fight.
The financial considerations involved
are variously estimated at from 100000
TO 5000, 1000 a Sunday. Allowing 10 cents
20 each person and taking for purposes
of computation the round figure OF 72O.-
900 persons, the total is more than $780,
900, which one theatre manager called
yesterday fairly accurate estimate OF
the money passed at the ticket windows
in New York each Sunday.
But while the managers express con-
fdence in the belief that the darkening
Of the movie houses on Sunday is an
impossible calamity, the law depart
ments Of several Of the largest thea
tres have begun studying the case.
There also was talk of the Exhibitors
League championing the cause of the
Albany theatre proprietor, on whose
case the decision was rendered.
while our lawyers have taken the
matter up" said $. l.. RothapfeL man
ager Of the Rialto, 81 don't think the
law can be enforced. The people wont
stand for it. They will demand the
movies. Motion pictures are the chief
form OF amusement of hundreds Of
thouands of persons, and il is not right
that this pleasure be denied them. Why
should our theatres be closed. Motion
pictures properly supervised are health
full. wholesome, decent, clean and edu-
cational."
Edwin Mocracy. treasurer OF the Ri
alto Corporation, asserted that most
motion picture houses depended on
their Sunday receipts for their profits.
Sunday is the theatres best day.
he explained THE Sunday receipts
average from II 20 16 per cent of the
total, according TO the house. Week
day receipts barely pay expenses. Take
away our Sunday money and you can
see what must be done. Either prices
will go up or the quality of shows will
go down. But ] have faith in democ-
racy. The people will triumph. for,
100000 strong, they want Sunday
moviesi"
Saul f. Rogers. counsel for large
moving picture interests here. said last
night he did not believe the decision Of
the Appellate Division in the Albany
case would apply 20 New York City.
That decision is in conflict with one
given several years ago by the Appel
late Division in this department, which
held that the giving of moving picture
exhibitions on Sunday was not viola
ton of the law" he explained. "The
law is not determined until and unless
| the question goes before the Court of
Appeals. The two departments Of the
Appellate Division are in conflict, and
il is doubtful what the law is.
eve are not inclined TO be at all ex-
/ ercised here over the Albany decision
and do not anticipate that any attempt
will be made to enforce il in this de-
partment. We are content to rest upon
the decision given by our own depart
ment.
81 do not know whether an attempt
will be made to take the Albany case
10 the Court Of Appeals. ! understand
Sunday shows have not been permitted
in Albany and that this was test case
to decide whether they could not be
given under the law"

BayOnne Movie Men
Make Ministers Offer

Twelve clergymen, banded together
as the Bayonne Ministers Association,
have appealed to the city commission
ers TO prevent the display Of motion
pictures in Bayonne on the Sabbath.
Also a dozen motion picture stock
holders suddenly organized as the Mo-
ton Picture Managers Association
have called upon the city fathers to let
well enough alone.
"If the ministers object TO whole
some film exhibitions on Sunday" said
the spokesman Of the managers last
night Eve will guarantee TO present
nothing but Biblical and sacred sub
jects. Moreover, we will permit any
man of the cloth in the city to come
into our theatres o. sunday, free Of
charge, and preach TO the multitude for
twenty minutes at each show. What
could be fairer than that?'
The city commissioners have reserved

HoYNE AND HAHN. =

HOYNE AND HAHN. - Arthur
Hahn is peeved because Mr.. Cochran
was fair-minded enough to commend
Mr.. Hoyne's good work as states
attorney. If Mr.. Cochran refrained
from speaking a good word in behalf
of so brave and conscientious pub
lie. servant as Mr.. Hoyne, discerning
readers of The Day Book would not
consider him as impartial as he says
he tries to be.
1t would seem that Mr.. Halm's' in
dictment of Mr.. Hoyne is that the
latter has done some splendid work,
but is not entitled to any credit be-
cause, forsooth, he is not Socialist.
If Mr.. Hoyne were a Socialist Mr..
Hahn would sing paens and officiate
at Mr.. Hoyne's apotheosis, but as he
happens to be Democrat, why. Mr..
Hahn will have none of him. Il
Mr.. Hoyne can never be a good So /
cialist, Mr.. Hahn, as he is not in the
least bit class conscious, and all So
cialists must be that Mr.. Hoyne can
never subscribe to that doctrine, as
he knows no class distinctions in the
performance of his duty-powerful
corporate taxdodgers, political bank
wreckers, crooked labor leaders, cor
rupt police officers, arson bugs, clair
voyants and sluggers all look alike to
him.
If Mr. Hahn wants his assertions
to carry any weight he will have to
specify wherein Mr.. Hoyne has been
in any way derelict in the perform
ance of his duty. Pending such
specifications on the part of Mr..
Hahn, sober-minded citizens will adj,
NIT that Mr.. Hoyne has given an ex-
cellent account of his stewardship |
and indulge in the fervent hope that |
ne will permit his name to be sub
mitted to vote of the people for re-

Referee Billed, Madison.
Umpire-Meyers, Madison.
After the big game had ended our
second team played fully as interest
ing game with the Walworth high,
ending in score of to 0. Our young
sters had been coached for snappy
game in which Chester Peters shone in
numerous plays through the line of a
heavier team. Their weakness seemed
to BE in the direction of the team but
after Curran of the regulars was called
in they settled down to better work.
It was Curran that caught forward
pass back of the Walworth goal that
made the only touchdown. Burr and
Webster of the Walworths were really
the star players.

ence class, assisted by Miss Hoen,
