Essential Points in
Message to Congress


President Wilson delivered his
message to congress last week. The
essential points were as follows:
Immediate provision for the en-
largement an administrative reorgan-
ization of the Interstate Commerce
Commission along the lines embodied
in the bill recently passed by the
house of representatives and now
awaiting action by the senate, in or
der that the commission may be en-
abled to deal with the many great
and various duties now devolying
upon it with a promptness and thor
oughness which are, with its present
constitution and means of action, i'm
possible.
Establishment of an eight-hour day
as the legal basis alike Of work and
of wages in the employment of all
railroad employees who are actually
engaged in the work of operating
trains in interstate transportation.
Authorization of the appointment
of small body of men to observe the
actual results in experience of the
adoption of the eight-hour day in
railway transportation alike for the
railroads and the men.
Explicit approval by congress of
the consideration by the Interstate
Commerce Commission of an increase
Of freight rates to meet such addi-
tional expenditures by the railroad
as may be necessary by the adoption
of an eight-hour work day.
A law providing for the amend
ment of arbitration law, whereby in
case the accommodation now provid-
ed for should fail, a public investiga-
tion of the merits of every dispute
shall be instituted and completed be-
fore a strike or lockout may lawfully
be attempted.
Legislation which will empower
the president of the United States to
assume control of such portions and
such rolling stock of the railroads of
the country as may be required for
military use and to operate them for
military purposes.

History of Motion Picture Industry
BY Beatriz Micheiena

ment. In his state of finance, 1t was
tremendous plunge, and one which
the final wisdom was to be for some
time debatable.
He had no working capital. He
shaved his personal living expense
to the quick to get the few extra
cents necessary to purchasing raw
film stock He had no certainty of
market, being under the necessity of
pioneering an unexplored field. 1t
was a disheartening task, but one
that he held unflinchingly to.
His subjects we're primintive-a
man running, chickens feeding, cat
tie grazing, and the like. The NOV
ing spirit behind motion pictures was
still curiosity-the marvel of seeing
the subjects in motion on the screen.
These first Pathe films were of short
length-ten, twelve and fifteen feet
perhaps-but they were the embryo
of something in the making-some-
thing tremendously great-revolu-
tionary even.
During those early days Pathe was
his own cameraman, shipping clerk,
manufacturer, demonstrator and
salesman. He took his films in his
pocket and carried them, travelling
third class, to London, Rome, Berlin,
and sold them there. He began to
push out in the same humble man
ner into more provincial parts of Eu-
rope He was being prompted by
the big idea of the motion picture
industry, an idea that, earlier still,
had compelled him to move out from
Paris, as his profits would allow, and
install his microscopes in seventeen
other cities and towns of France. 1t
was the idea of expansion.

half blind to its larger and ever eX-
panding possibilities as an amuse-
ment enterprise in England, num-
ber of astute showmen in Paris, but
all of them far less prominent in
their day than Harris, we're awaken
ing to some faint surmise of the pos
sibilities wrapped up in Lumiere in
ventions. Many of these were what
we would term in this country penny
arcade proprietors. They were about
the smallest fry" in tie whole
amusement realm. However, 1t has
taken but history to prove that all
they were lacking was the larger op-
portunity.
1t is a significant fact that, when
the opportunity did come in motion
pictures. it was these same Small
fry" that appreciated and took ad-
vantage of it more readily than the
arlstocrats of the amusement world,
who then Haunted their greater pros
perity and prominence as a sign of
superior wisdom
If the showmen of Paris in 1896
were asked to choose the man who
would be greatest among them twen-
ty years thence, probably one of the
last names that would have entered
their minds is that of Charlie Pathe.
The more prominent of them would
have considered his "piker's" busi-
ness. He operated the Microscopes.
He had started with one, then in
creased to three. Finally he was OPP
Grating in eighteen different cities in
France.
AS a film Outlived its interest in
one locality. Pathe would move it
on to another and bring in film
from still another locality to take the
place of the one that had gone. In
this manner he kept his pictures in
constant circulation. making each
one do service in eighteen different
towns. And here was born an idea
that has developed into one of the
dominating factors of the motion pic
ture industry as it is regulated today
1t was the beginnings of the modern
film exchange, of which will speak
further in coming chapter.
When the Lumieres had perfected
their projecting device, Pathe was
among the first to appreciate the in
creased scope that 1t gave the film
industry. Despite his ingenuity in
handling his kinetoscope, returns had
been niggardly and slow in coming.
He had accumulated barely enough
to buy a motion picture camera, but,
with the spirit that has dominated
the remarkable growth of the pic
ture business, he made the invest

much novel business in his handling

most of the amusing incidents in

dray loads of bakers and confec-

lied in giving atmosphere to the Ar
buckle vehicle, despite the high cost
of foodstuffs.
