Movies for Children.

The Federation of Women's Clubs is
engaged in a most laudable endeavor to
improve the quality of the motion pie
lures offered to children in this city.
At meeting yesterday al endeavor
was made to secure an organization OF
various civic bodies TO encourage the
patronage by parents of picture shows
which are wholesome rather than those
which appeal to the excitable DISPOSE
tons of children. and are in the end de-
moralizing. Many pictures of the latter
class are shown in Washington as i'll
other cities. and parents who allow their
children to go IL the movies without
guidance are running grave risks. Co
operation between the Federation OF
Moments Clubs and the motion picture
men OF Washington is promised for the
purpose of giving a series Of matinee
performances TOR children which will
set q standard in this respect This
enterprise is worthy Of encouragement
and general support. Out of it should
come some adjustment whereby only
wholesome. helpful films will be shown
TO the children of Washington. In this
work the parents must cooperate. as
we'll as the organizations and the pic
ture show promoters.

Italy's New Gains.

Italy's new advance on the Austrian
lines east of Gorilla has effected a gain
of mile at points and carried posi-
tons that have heretofore been held by
the Austrians despite all efforts. This
advance was along a twelve-mile front,
the gains being of different degrees.
The net result of the drive is to give
the Italians moro certain control over
the approaches to Trieste, the seizure
Of which is now the chief Italian OBJ
jective of the campaign. With Trieste
in Italian hands Austrian naval opera
tons in the Adriatic will be seriously
hampered, although there will still re-
main to Austria the ports Of Pola and
Finme. The possession of Trieste, how
ever, will seriously menace both Of these
other ports, for from Trieste as . base
the campaign against the Istrisn PENN
sula is rendered practicable. Italy's
progress in the war has been spasmodic,
the advances having been interrupted
by repulses and long delays. Indeed,
Italy appears to be suffering, as are all
the other nations in the war, from oc-
casional munitions shortages. Most Of
the big gains by all the belligerents
since the beginning of trench warfare
in France have been due to the failure

An Anti Trust Law Inconsistency

The Department of Justice. it is re
ported. is inclined to the belief that
under the terms of tue Clayton anti
trust act all organizations of farmers
are exempt from the operations Of that
statute. and that. therefore. any com
hination which they may effect to con
troll the price of milk for sale in the
District of Columbia is immune from
prosecution. In other words. the milk
producers Of Maryland and Virginia may
with absolute impunity combine to bring
about a price advance without the least
risk OF interference by the federal gov
eminent. although any combination OF
breadmakers there or in the District. for
the same purpose, would be subject to
criminal prosecution. Herein lies the in
equity of exemptions i'll the laws.
The object of the antitrust statutes
is to prevent combinations for the con-
troll of prices They have been invoked
against manufacturers and dealers in all
Some of the defendants have been con-
victed and have been sentenced to
prison or subjected to heavy fines. The
exemption of farmers from the opera
ton of these statutes was dictated by
reasons of public policy, inasmuch as
it was deemed undesirable to restrict the
opportunities of the agriculturists of the
country to get together for mutual adj
vantage. But it is to be seriously ques-
toned if the intent of the law was to
permit the farmers. as privileged against
all other groups of necessity producers,
it has been deemed extremely doubtful
whether the farmers ever could get TO-
gether for this purpose, owing to their
wide dispersion.
decision on this question of whether
the milk producers are immune from the
operations of the Clayton act is desir
able, regardless of any question of
whether the recent action of the pro-
ducers of Maryland and Virginia in rails
ing the price to Washington retailers
and consumers is justifable. If the
farmers can combine to increase food
costs while the manufacturers cannot,
the former occupy a position Of great
advantage. In this particular matter
glaring inconsistency is evident in
that while the farmer-producer may be
free under the law to combine to force
prices upward. the distributors. not be-
ing agriculturists. have no such right,
and may be prosecuted under the same
statute for any combination tending to
control or regulate prices.

Mr.. Hughes predicts it win again next
Tuesday. All labor centers, organized
and unorganized, gave Mr.. Taft a lib
eral share Of support.
The reason was that Candidate Taft
did not run away from, or even attempt
to qualify, the decisions of Judge Taft.
He stood to his guns, and explained only
to the extent of stripping the cases
cited of the Misrepresentation and ex-
travagances that had been employed by
his opponents in their efforts to injure
him. He assumed that his audiences
wanted the truth. and would deal with
him justly. He was not disappointed on
election day.
The republican candidate was Gov.
Hughes before he was Judge Hughes.
and in the former capacity proved him
self to be q good friend of labor. He
made no special play for its favor. but
time and again in legislative matters
showed strong sympathy for laborS vel
fare. A. Il result. lie was comp'imented
and thanked by prominent representa-
tivcs Of labor in New York state. and
retired from the governorship with
labor's thorough good will.
Mr.. Gompers and his lieutenants are
exerting themselves as never before, but
in Mr.. Hughes are confronting a man no
more disposed to run away or qualify
than Mr.. Taft was eight years ago.

side. It Is now reported that Germany
is showing evidences Of replenishment
of the artillery and munitions supply
on the Somme front, the early British
and French gains there having been due
largely to the depletion Of the German
stores and equipment. In the same way
Russia shows signs Of replenished mu-
nitions stock in the renewed drive in

Mr.. Marshall on the Situation.

In an interview given at Philadelphia
Yesterday Vice President Marshall, in
speaking of the President. said:
Il have been all over this country. and
| feel that he will be elected by an over
whelming majority. But l am Just as
'eocksure' that if he is defeated it will
be a crushing one"
As a stumper-and he is I; good one
Mr.. Marshall has witnessed in this cam
paign many manifestations of enthu-
siasm. Naturally, they have given him
great heart for his chief-have made
him feed that Wilson victory is on the
way. Still, his experience in politics
teaches him that when deep feeling is
aroused both sides show the effect, and
that only election day can tell which
side has been the more profoundly
moved.
Mr.. Wilson's receptions III New York
state must have gratificd and heartened
him highly: and he has probably re-
turned to Shadow Lawn convinced that
the state is for him. And yet Il demon
stration for Mr.. Hughes is scheduled for
tomorrow night which is expected to
make a record for numbers and cam
paign heartiness in the big town.
In Ohio yesterday Mr. Roosevelt made
things hum before enormous outpour-
ings. And yet the state is claimed by
the democrats by hundred thousand
majority, and conceded by the repub-
3icans to be doubtful.
Mr.. Hughes has returned from a see
ond visit to Indiana convinced that the
state is his. His meetings everywhere
broke the local record for size, and the
local committeeman assured him that all
was well for the party. And yet Thomas
Taggart says the democratic majority
will reach fifty thousand.
At the outset, Champ Clark, an ex-
perieneed observer. said: at is going to
be a horse race" Which meant that the
two presidential nags would have to fight
for every inch of the way. and that at
the home wire one blanket would almost
cover them.
But, at the close, there are others be-
sides Mr.. Marshall expecting to see one
of the nags distanced next Tuesday. The
Wilson men see their nag in front, the
Hughes men theirs, but pronounced

and hence, at time like this, with new
issues and new aiignments causing con-
fusion, many politicians are left with

Hughes and Taft.

This is taken from a report of the
speech made by Mr.. Hughes at Terre
Haute, Ind, Wednesday night:
II understand that word has gone ont
through labor circles in official channels
to vote against me, and l know perfectly
we'll that am saying a profound truth.
and every union labor man knows it
that nobody can direct or control the
labor vote of the. country. That vote is
going to be cast according to its sound
Judgment, according to what the men
think is right and fair This is an
American government and our working
men are the best citizens we have. be-
cause they are producing and working.
and j have the utmost confidence in the
freedom of their Judgment, according to
their conscience, uncontrolled BY any
power" And in reply to heckler who
asked about the Danbury hatters' case
he said: "Now, if there is any mani

ferring one party against another. ire
spective of the law, let him not vote for
me-"
In this campaign Mr.. Hughes has been
showing the same order of courage re-
speeding attacks from labor sources that
Mr.. Taft when a candidate in 1908
showed. There were labor leaders then
who tried to deliver the labor vote to
Mr.. Bryan, on the allegation that Mr..
Taft when ON the bench had been un-
fair to labor. They cited rulings and de-
dsions by Judge Taft in an effort to
injure Candidate Taft, and boasted that
they were making an impression, and
that election day would tell the tale.
The tale told was not the one pre-
dicted. Labor proved unbelievable al

Confident Prophecy.
Well all be shopping early
When the snow begins to fly.
And no language sharp or surly
Will salute the passer-by.
When the ballots have been counted
Mid the grief or the applause
We set forth, on foot or mounted,
On the trail Of Santa Claus.
Well forget our apprehensions
As we journey on the way
That will lead us from discussions
To the world of youth at play.
Well forget the hurlyburly
Over who may lose and win
And we'll all be shopping early
For the love of friends and kin.
