ago that David Heidelberg had been
operated on at Barnes Hospital, ST.
Louis, for some bladder trouble. We
were little previous in our state
ment; he had entered the hospital for
that purpose and has been there since
undergoing treatment preparatory to
the operation, which was made last
Monday. We understand that he is
getting along nicely and will probably
'be home in about ten days.

CENSORSHIP OF SCREEN
INSTATE CALLED FARCE
Speakers Attack Regulation in
Annual Meeting of Exhibi-
tors League

Motion picture censorship as conducted in
this state was terr,ed farce" and pre-
dictions were made that it would soon be
done away with at the opening Of the three
day convention Of the Motion Picture Ex-
hibtors' League Of Pennsylvania, Inc, in
the auditorium Of the American Foto Player
Company, Parkway Building, today.
Several speakers said that under the
present regulation the censorship had done
positive harm, that it was not needed, and
that 1t had meant n considerable financial
loss to film exhibitors. who often were not
allowed TO use the films after having pur-
chased them.
II was declared that the morals Of tho
community were protected fully by both
Federal and state laws and that the State
board easily could he eliminated
i. Harrington, nationa organizer Of
the league, after terming the present cen-
sorship in Pennsylvania farce" pre-
dctcd that it would be done away with in
tho near future
Tho convention was opened formally after
an automobile parade of exhibitors from
Broad and Diamond streets to Chestnut
street and to the Parkway Building.
G. w. Sahner, in the opening address,
said:
system Of censorship in this state as long
as we have plenty of Federal and State
laws governing the operation OF moving
pictures.
MANY States already have done away
with such censorship and ! think Pennsyl-
vania will follow suit.
THE movnE-pcture business has grown
by leaps and bounds. But its high pedes-
tai is due to the high character of the
films exhibited as well as to the loyal sup
port given by the general public.
The business not only has furnished
education and entertainment, but also em-
plOyment 20 mary thousands Besides. IL
has helped to I'll the Golfers of the states
treasury
"As for its educational value, the business
has been of unusual advantage especially
to those who have not had the advantage
Of college training"
Mr. Sahner said the movies" had helped
to foster national spirit and patriotism, be-
sides stimulating recruiting and subscrip-
tons to the Red Cross and other national
causes.
r.. J. Cattell, who represented the Mayor,
spoke Of the moving picture business as one
of the great upbuilders Of the nation.
The response to the opening address was
made by John O'Donnell, president of the
Philadelphia branch of the league.

-M'NICHOL TRUCE
SEEN IN RESERVATIONS
Magistrate Beaton Follows Pen
mock in Quitting Central Sta,
tion-Politics Alleged

Magistrate William F. Beaton, one of the
day committing magistrates at the City
Hall police court, has resigned this position,
IL became known at city Hall this after
noon on Saturday Magistrate Evan T.
Pennock, who sat at night, rendered his
resignation. city Hall political gossip has
it that politics is back of the resignation
and that it points TO a truce between Mayor
Smith and Senator James F. McNiChol
In an interview this afternoon Beaton
said:
MY resignation has been in the Mayors
hand since June l5 l became tired of
the job and have wanted TO step down
and out for some time. I was not asked
TO resign; it was purely voluntary on my
part. The Mayor has not accepted my
resignation as yet"
Dopesters say that the fact that Pennock
and Beatou have both resigned and the
fact that Magistrate John +. Collins, who
is to take Pennocl's place, is a McNichol
man indicates the truce. 1t is also pointed
out that Magistrate John Mecleary, who
sits at City Hall in alternate months with
Beaton, is a McNchol man He has not
resigned Beaton is known as a bitter
enemy of the McNichol faction and Pennock
fought the election of Ernest l.. Tustin and
helped 10 defeat him for a seat in the City
Committee. Mayor Smith supported Tustn.
Mayor Smith denies that he asked for
the designations and says he has not yet
acted upon Beaton's Later, however,
Mayor Smith admitted that the resignation
had reached him. II was apparent that
Magistrate Beaton wanted the Mayor to
make the announcement.
II has been the custom for Magistrate
Beaton to sit one month and Magistrate
MecleaTy the next. Beaton has been sitting
this month and next month will he Mec-
learys. il is rumored that an effort was
being made to keep II a secret that Beaton
had resigned until the beginning Of August,
when IL would become apparent by the
fact that Collins would he in his place, but
the story Of the resignation Leaked" and
IL was necessary TO announce ii. SO far
McNchol and Ware have not commented
upon the significance Of the resignations.
