such action, but II was pIgeon-holed for
other matters OF Importance.
Since his election as president however.
he has insisted that this matter be taken
up In some practical form and the ypuW
licity committee has been urged to stick
TO the proposition II 1t Is the only thing
you do for the next year"
The plan as outlined by Mr.. Tushingham
Is simple one. First we propose to OBJ
tain the cooperation OF the real estate
men," he said today, "and find out Just how
many medium-prlced properties are avail
able.
"If there are not enough. then WE viii uso
every effort IN our power to induce men OF
means to start several large building opera
tIons which when completed will put at our
disposal several hundred houses which rent
for n moderate price.
DETAILS OF PLAN
AFTER we have done this we promise to
obtain the names OF the several thousand
Phlladelphians employed in Camden and
send to them circular letters, in the various
languages. showing them the advantages in
settling In Camden.
I'VE will urge them to settle here for
economic reasons. They will be nearer their
employment They will not be annoyed
by tho delays that occur in the winter time
at the ferries. They will save money In
carfsre besides being nearer the farmer
and thus in a position to reduce the cost
OF living.
Take the time, for instance. II takes,
say. fifty minutes to go from the Victor plant
across the ferries TO Philadelphia. That
is 100 minutes per day spent In travel, in
addition to the eight hours required for
work. Now suppose that some workman
lives in East Camden. It will take him
only twenty minutes TO reach his home. or
in other words he saves sixty minutes per
day or one hour.
In other words, he saves 800 hours
per year in travel. or twelve and one hall
days. Is that something to think about
or is II immaterlal7
These figures of travel do not lie, and
we intend TO show II to these Philadel.
phians. We want them here and we are
going to convince them that they ought e
I live here, nearer their employment for eco
nomic, health and financial reasons"
Mr.. Tushingham stated that the publicity
committee had already obtained the CO
| operation of the officials of the Victor Talk
| ing Machine Company and of the Campbell,
| Soup Company and that they were nov
| lining up the officials Of the New York Ship
building Company. The first two com

BREED THEATRE
Mabel TaIiafsrro in The Sunbeam, and the Last Chapter of The Crimson Stain Mystery Form Double Feature Bill for Today.

One of the strongest bills of fea- ture photoplays ever presented in this city is being shown at the Breed the atre today, the feature of which is C6afeu Tafaferro in The Sunbeam, a nve-part Metro wonderpIay that warns the heart and stirs the soul. Tn this photoplay there is an unusual Iy good standardization Taliafer- TO and a play that fits perfectly every fine feature of her power as an act ress- Her role as Prue Mason, The Sunbeam, demands sweetness and sim cerity and in these qualities she shines on the stage If you care to see, a photoplay of the best-yet va rietv don't fail to see The Sunbeam.
 The Breed also presents the last chapter of The Crimson Stain Mys- terry which is entitled The Unmask- ing In this chapter The Crimson Stain is exposed and the mystery is solved.
 On Friday and Saturday Lou TelIe- gen will be seen at the Breed in The Victory of Conscience, a hve-part Par amount production written especially for him by Margaret Turnbull from the story by Alexandra de Janneli. Afr. Tellegen will be supported by Cleo Rfdgoly and an all-star cast. This Is the first photodramatic production in which Mfr. Tellegen has appeared since his marriage to the famous Ger aldine FaTrar.
 The story has to do with the spir- itual and mental awakening of Louis, Count de Tayennes. The count and his handsome. harum scarum compan- ion, Prince Dimitrf Karitzin, steal little dancing girl from a French tav- ern. The girl falls fin love with Louis but he eases her aside. and is nearly killed in fight with her former sweetheart Upon recovering, the for mer sinner enters the priesthood.
 How he again meets the dancer, wins her admiration and induces her to enter a monastery, is brought about in q way that thas never been seen before by the photodramatic audiences. To say that this play is unusual and sensational, is but a mild description.
 Cleo Ridgley, as the dancer, has been given one of the best roles of her entire career, and sh has risen to the occasion with all the energy and ability at her command

The Wars Women picture. which has been under inspection by the members of the amusement commit tee of the court of common council, was exhibited to the above mentioned body of men and their sanction was then given to show it at the perform ances for which it had been booked. This picture drew forth many at Wednesdays performances and all left the theatre with the idea of prepar- edness carried throughout the entire eight reels. Frank Keenan and the emotional actress. Enid Markey, both proved themselves to be wonderful and the entire cast was made up of strong members. The picture is a most emphatic method of bringing to the public the terrible ravages of war and the ruin brought to innocent women. It is a photoplay with a purpose and carries with it the entire attention of those witnessing the production It is seldom that such an expensive pro- duction is seen in city the size of Norwich at the popular price of 10 cents In practically all of the larger cities the crowds grasp the chance of seeing it at much higher prices
 With this big feature is the un- usual comedy, Cupid's Caddies, which amused all present. This picture, which is made up in one reel, brings down more laughter than almost any of the comedies now on the market.
