Movie Studio in
Omaha Planned
By This Company

j. de Labertouche I. w. Warren and A
Duran, all of whom are well known to
the motion picture world, have been
quietly spending the last few days in
Omaha looking for a suitable location to
erect moving picture studio.
They have under consideration a few
tracts of land in the suburbs OF this city
for that purpose. Mr.. de Labertouche,
late of Pathe-Frere of Paris. expresses
joy because his companions selected
Omaha for the home office OF the COM
pany. He considers many of the suburbs
an ideal spot for taking motion pictures.
Mr.. Duran, playwright and manager
of the production, states the company
which he represents will be the only
actual producing company in Nebraska
making real motion pictures. 1t Is the
intention of the company to do every
thing possible to advertise Omaha and
Nebraska in general to the world.
In many of the spectacular productions
over 1900 extra people win be employed
which, of course, will not include the
regular staff. Mr.. Warren, director OF
cameras, states they have spoken to a
number of influential business men OF
Omaha just to get their views before
| beginning operations and in every in
stance being assured of moral and fnan,
cial support

History Of Trinity
Parish Tells Work
By Henry w Yates

An appropriate and valuable memorial
Of the late Henry w. Yates Is contained
between the covers of a book entitled
History of Trinity Parish, Omaha" pub
lshed by the family for private circula-
ton. The history was written by Mr..
Yates ten years ago, and then published
serially in The CroZser," and is now re-
published in more enduring form, both
as tribute to HIS memory and to pre-
serve a record of his devotion to the
church whose history is recounted.
Mr., Yates was a member of the vestry
Of Trinity cathedral for forty-eight years,
for thirty-six OF which he was senior
warden. Thus he was intimately assoc
cated with the directing forces of the
cathedral parish. and necessarily in close
touch with the affairs of the Episcopal
diocese of Nebraska Moreover. he was
always a delegate TO diocesan councils
and represented the diocese in the general
conventions in 1886 1907, 1910 and 1918. In
deed his church activities covered every
branch Of lay effort, and exemplified de-
votion, loyalty and intelligent work.
The history of Trinity parish covers
three periods-the MISSION period, from
1886 to 1854. the parish and pro-cathedral
period, from 1864 to 1872. and the cathedral
period, since 1872
Memorial resolutions by church bodies
and memorial addresses by churchDen
are printed in the closing pages of the
book.

to which the American people would
never consent
The real question" he said, lis whether
we should forsake entirely this settled
policy OF gradual and moderate increase
in due proportion to the needs OF the
country. or whether we shall adopt pro-
gram Of preparedness that would involve
enormous burdens Of taxation and require
sacrifices Of personal freedom which
Americans arc not ready to make.
40 Need Cor Alarm.
"rhc advocates OF this kind OF prepared
ness have up TO the present time com
pletely failed to give any kind OF valid
reason for their position. Tho condition
Of our country is practically the same rs
e was before this question arose We
have had International difficulties. but
they have not increased the danger OF
invasion Not one Of the European ma
lions is a bit more hostile now than they
were before the war. and &c tho war is TO
be a war of exhaustion, as seems to be
the prevalent opinion in this country, then
none OF them will be In a position TO sue
cessfully attack the United States. And
even " there should be some reason for
any OF the cNtravagant measures OF this
program. there would still be no reason
for adopting the program With undue
haste Such change would mean a
radical departure from the traditional
policy and should therefore be well CON
sidcred. II It Is the war IN Europe which
has made the change in conditions here
then the dictate of reason would be to
wait until that conflict is ended, We
could then govern ourselves according to
the conditions that exist at that time"
When the subject was thrown open for
discussion not Jack could be found
to speak In favor OF extreme preparedness

disarmament OF the army and navy which

eradication at finding that Mr.. Peter

expected he would come armed to the
teeth and breathing the fear of war.

tional program" which he and others had
arranged and OF which tho evenings ad-
dress was one number, was running off
the track. liz. Dunn, who spoke for a
couple OF hours on the subject few
weeks ago made some further remarks,
a resolution was adopted setting next
