ARMY BILL VETOED.

Washington, d. C.-Last week Presi-
dent Wilson vetoed the army appropria-
ton bill, with all OF its provisions for
preparedness on the ground that the
bill removes army officers who have
been retired and who are receiving
pensions, from liability to special serv-
ice and the discipline that has hereto
fore controlled them. The President
distinguished between former soldiers
who are receiving a pension because
OF total incapacity and retired army OF
ficers whose experience would be OF
use in times OF war, but who are exempt
under the provisions OF the act. The
bill was immediately reintroduced with
the former clause included.

COMPENSATION BILL
APPROVED BY SENATE

Washington-The senate, last Satur-
day passed the McGillcuddy-
workmen's compensation bill without a
roll call vote. While it was being con-
sidered Senator Cummins attempted to
have the administration of the law placed
in the federal department of labor, in
stead of commission of three persons
to be appointed by the president. This
was defeated on a roll call vote, 80 to
20.
The house approved this bill last
month by vote of 2S6 to 3.
The passage of this measure marks the
end of a long campaign by the American
Federation of Labor to extend the pres
ent federal act, which applies only to
those engaged in hazardous occupations,
to all of the 100000 employees of the gov
ernment. This legislation was first urged
by the A. +. of L., and eight years ago
bill was introduced at the request OF
organized labor.
The bill just passed provides that in
case of death the widow shall receive
35 per cent of the monthly pay and 1C
per cent additional for each dependent
child under Is, same to continue until
death or remarriage In case of injury
benefits shall be at the rate of two-thrds
the wages lost during disability, with &
maximum of $66.67 a month, and not less
than S3333 unless the employees wage i:
| less than that amount, in which case ht
| shall receive full paw

BATTLE CRY OF PEACE
IS WONDERFUL FILM
ls a Fit Companion Piece for
The Birth of a Nation"
Crescent Crowded

The following comments on The
Battle Cry of Peace" taken from the
New Orleans Item, will be of interest
TO our readers who intend seeing
this picture at the Star Theatre in
Lake Providence Monday, May 20.
Both from a spectacular and an
educational viewpoint. The Battle
Cry of Peace" which opened at the
Crescent Theater Sunday night is
remarkable entertainment. Com
pairing it with The Birth of a Ma
ton" is inevitable. and it is the
opinion of many who have seen both
that The Battle Cry" is in every
way entitled to stand with the
Griffith production as the two great
est triumphs of the art of moving
pictures.
Although the weather was bad.
the Crescent was we'll filled, the
clientele of the Tulane Theater being
well represented in the big audience.
The action Of the drama is quick
and stirring and the spectators en-
thusiasm was aroused within few
moments after the thousand of dra-
matte scenes began to unfold.
As with The Birth Of Nation, y
music has been arranged to accom-
pany The Battle Cry Of Peace. "
Emile Tosso is the leader of the
biggest orchestra ever heard in the
Crescent and the music is of the
same high class as was furnished by
the symphony organization which
provided the accompaniment for
The Birth of a Nation"
Coming is Timely.
The Battle Cry Of Peace engage
! ment here is particularly timely, as
New Orleans is deeply engrossed IT
the movement for preparedness,
and it will convert to the cause many
persons who otherwise would moi
have been torn from the paciticist
faction.
The Battle Cry" requires about
two hours and three-Quarters in the
telling. The pictures were made b.
the Vitagraph company and the cas-
includes Charles Richman, Norma
/. Talmadge and a dozen other stars o
filmdom.
The individual acting is excellent
but the picture does not make 1t
: greatest appeal through the actini
of any one player or any group o
: players, but through the presenta
= ton of big scenes in which thousand
? upon thousands take part. Apparer
2 thy three or four times as man
l persons were used in The Battl
t Cry of Peace" as appeared in Tn
; Birth of a Nation"
Realism on Big Scale.
There is a lavish waste of none
, in the piece, too. Dozens of builC
ings are destroyed-not shacks bui
+. just for the purpose of being d.
stroyed, but big substantial stru
lures which it required big guns
= level. There is a graphic head-c
. collision and battle at sea in whiC
q a dreadnaught is sunk after a ferc
-. encounter. There are dozens
aeroplanes. scores of battleShip
regiments of infantry, and appareI
tly tens of thousands fleeing fro
New York City when the enemy
approaches. An attack on Ne
a York City with a panici Broadw'
V is realistically shown.
e The Sunday night audien
e laughed at a fight in the pea
e meeting" shown in the film, az
o recalled a similar row here last We
when pacifcists were put out OF
preparedness meeting.
The Battle Cry of Peace is
t. wonderful picture, and the chanC
are it will have as successful r
here as did The Birth of Nation
