Several

weeks ago 1 took the liberty oflstart-
ing a chain letter, which l mailed
to some of my friends in the hope
that it will boost the circulation of
The Day Book. 1 agree with Mr..
Quinn that every reader of The Day
Book should interest their friends in
THEIR paper. The larger the circu-
lation the greater the power for good
will the paper have.
Following is a copy of my chain
letter. Won't you please publish it
in The Forum, so that other readers
who wish to help the good work can
send copies of it to their friends:

WAS ARRESTED.-Last Sunday
night while coming from the West
Side Forum meeting, at a transfer
corner met a woman who had been
held up, choked and robbed of $11.
No policemen around!
Of course, a policeman cannot al
ways be Johnny on the spot" but
they can do lots better than they are
now doing. Dec. IA 1 was arrested
when selling papers and books on
private property. The policeman
claimed that such sale constituted
peddling and was in violation of an
ordinance requiring a license to ped
die At the trial he admitted he had
never seen me before, so he couldn't
have seen me sell elsewhere. To con-
stitute peddling it must be proven
that the accused moved about from
place to place, offering merchandise
for sale. In the poorer districts in
the summer time people sell mer-
chandise, etc., near the sidewalk in
their front yard. Can these people be
hauled into court for peddling?
The officer certainly was going
long way out of his way in order to
manufacture a case. Why so when
there is plenty of real work that
needs to be done? The reason is
that the officer was not in accord
with sentiments expressed in the pa
pers was selling and was usurping
the power to censor the press, work
he was not hired to perform.
The constitution of the U. S. says.
that congress shall have no power or
right to abridge the freedom of the
press, and is Chicago policeman
bigger man than congress? For such

BROTHER, DRUNK, SLEEPS IN
SALOON.-Win any of your readers
tell me what steps to take to compel
a saloonkeeper to stop allowing my
brother to sleep hour after hour in
his saloon after getting drunk there?
Never was a home more wretched.
We have, warned them time and
again to send him home to sleep,
but they only ignore us. The only
way we can get him home is to go
to the saloon ourselves and get him.
Is there no other way?
Our poor old mother never had
any peace on this earth on account
of saloons and this is killing her fast.
He is a man, so l suppose we can
not prevent saloonkeepers from sell
ing him drink, but we do not want
him to hang there or sleep there

to know of some of the things we

hostile power come to our harbors

hind us to repulse them. We can get

your idea in simple terms that are easily
understandable
Sometimes It is impossible to use words
that are quite common because to read q
word on the screen and to hear It spoken
are two different things. Our language is
very unsatisfactory at it's best. One word
may have many meanings.
You must also be careful, II a word has
more than one meaning, to change II and
select a synonym with the meaning intended
to be conveyed Titles, like all other in
serts, are made in the factory, and they are
always put between tho scenes or In the
scenes in assembling the picture.
In the studio projection room when the
first print Of n picture Is run there are no
titles on It. The title editor reads your
titles and watches the picture he realizes
that you have not introduced your char
acters properly and makes a notation to
that effect he finds other titles Inadequate
or that poor production or poor acting
has spoiled the scene, and in order to
make 1t more easily understood Is Obliged
to ampllfy your title.
Sometimes after story Is made Il Is
found to be very bad. The film editor can
then assemble his scenes and by means of
subtitles write an entirely new story, using
the action taken here and there In the pic
ture
We remember one picture, produced by
a well-known concern, which was supposed
to be drama, 1t was poorly acted and
poorly directed Inc picture was TO be put
on the shelf when the film editor had a
brilliant idea, He wrote comedy subtitles
and made the melodrama action seem bur-
lesque. The picture was pronounced sue
cess.
Sometimes the wider anglo of some ac-
ton Is very good, whereas the closeup is
poor. Perhaps the actor overacts in the
closeup, perhaps his makeup is poor The
minute the closeup Is flashed from the
wider angle a subtitle, which Is probably
unnecessary, is sometimes inserted before
the audience can discover the poor acting
or the poor makeup. No subtitle would nat.
urally be needed to explain the scene, but
because of the acting or the makeup the
scene would be ruined unless a subtitle were
used. This is called playing up subtitles.

HUGHES AND ONLY HUGHES
CAN WIN

Every expression of public
opinion that has been taken indi-
Gates beyond doubt that Mr.. Jus
tice Charles f. Hughes is the
choice of the Republicans as their
nominee for the presidency. The
conviction is gaining ground thru
the country that Mr.. Hughes is the
only man who can be elected. He
is the one available candidate.
The Chicago convention will
make a grave mistake if any ono
else is nominated.
The Tribune has no objection
to any other Republican candi-
dctee for the nomination. We
would be satisfied with Mr.. Root.
Mr.. Weeks or Mr.. Lodge. Sue
cess at the general elections is
not all. We would rather go
down to defeat with a Republican
candidate than follow Col. Roose-
Welt to success. Such success
world be the most costly success
that this people ever experienced.
The Tribune would rather see
President Wilson, with all his
faults, reelected than see the Re
publican party subverted to the
ambitions of a not too scrupulous
politician Of the Roosevelt type.

THE PRESIDENT'S FOREIGN
POLICY

When the history ofthese try
ing times is written something of
the tremendous responsibilities
resting upon President Wilson
viii become known-and his mas
terly handling Of the situation
will once more tend to strengthen
that opinion that whenever a
great crisis threatens the United
States an overruling power pro-
duces the leader for the occasion.
1t will be found that the differ
ences with Mexico, with Japan and
with Germany are all intermingl-
ed and that.in our treatment of
one country we must also consid-
er the treatment of all Both
Germany and Japan are suspect
ed Of fOmenting trouble between
the United States and Mexico.
With the INSCRIPTIONS Huerta i'm
control in Mexico there is ac-
cumulating evidence that he
would have conspired with these
powers TO the detriment of the
United States-and this makes
plain the necessity for the elm
nation of that old Indian.
The calling of the South Am
erican nations into council will be
found to have been a long step
and a patriotic one to protect
those countries from aggrandize-
ment by Germany, Japan or any
other power. And will also be
found to make them allies moi fo
be despised in any war which this
country may be forced into to
protect the integrity Of the Am
erican continent.
President Wilson's foreign
policy is the most far-sighted. the
clearest visioned and withal the
boldest in the larger and truer
sense that has ever guided the
United States.
