AT THE "Rv

The sunny south, laden with the
sweet scents of orange blossoms and
magnolias, is the scene of Pauline
Frederick's newest photoplay, "A
Daughter of the Old South" which
will be shown at the "B" Theater to-
day and tomorrow. The picture,
which was written by Margaret Turn
bun from the story of Alicia Ramsey
and Rudolph de Cordova, and direct
ed by Emile Chautard, is said to have
provided Miss Frederick with one of
the most appealing roles she has es-
sayed for month months
Miss Frederick appears as a beau
ttful Creole girl whose love story,
filled with lights and shades, laugh
ter and tears, is charmingly told by
the star in a series of eXquisitely
heart appealing scenes. Supported
by a company of excellent players,
Miss Fredericka latest starring We
h!cle is one Of supreme Importance to
her admirers the country over.
There will be shown a reel of
weekly Events pictures.

Most Of the Williams we have had
in photoplays from the very begin

the utter villains of tradition. They
have been bad just on general prin-
ciples. Douglas Fairbanks, however,
has come to the rescue with an inno-
}alion in The Good Bad Man. a
Triangle feature which he wrote him
self, and in which he is starred.
The bad man here is a most likable
young chap. whose depredations takt
eccentric channels. For instance, he
holds up the Pacific Limited and robs
the conductor of his ticket punch.
Again, he holds up the town grocer
and robs him of quantities of food
which he bestows upon a friendless
little orphan who lives on the out
skirts Of civilization.

The Slough OF DespOnd.

"Without the treaty." said Presi-
dent WILSON at Sacramento, with
out the covenant of the League of
Nations which 1t contains, we would
simply sink back into that slough of
despond In which mankind was before
this war began"
A month before the war began
President WILSON delivered an ad-
dress at Independence Hall in Phila-
delphia which shows that he had no
idea then that mankind was In a
"slough of despond." On the con-
trary, he insisted that all was we'll
with the world, or at least with the
people Of our own country, who con-
stitute a very considerable portion of
mankind. Here Is what he said on
the Fourth Of July, 1914, in rebuke Of
pessimistic prophets Of evil:
II have heard great many facts
stated about the present business con-
dition Of this country; for example,
great many allegations or fact, but
the allegations do not tally with one
another. And yet / know that truth
always matches with truth and when

thing is going wrong and others
Insisting that everything is going
right. and when know from a wide
observation of the general circum-
stances OF the country taken as q
whole that things are going ex-
tremely well. 1 wonder what those
who are crying out that things are
wrong are trying to do"
They were trying to excite people
by exaggeration, just as the Presi-
dent of the United States is trying to

Mayor JAMES CoUzENs of Detroit
has sold to HENRY and EDsrI FoRr
2,180 shares of stock in the Ford
motor company for about 500, SOC, 900
according to reports from Detroit,
Mayor CoUzENs was one Of HENRY
FoRD's partners when the motor com.
puny was formed, and 1t is said the
stock he has now transferred cost him
about $4,000 in money and credit,
These figures may not be accura to-
but Mr.. CoUzENs got q lot of money
for his stock.
It will be said that Mr.. OouznNs won
good profit by his investment. but
II should not be forgotten that he put
something more than his dollars into
the company. When HENRY FoRn
started automobile making he needed
money, but he needed something else
He needed men with Imagination, en-.
ergy and faith in his project. Mr.,
CoUzENs had all these and he had a
gift. If not genius, for accounts and
for finance. He put the gift into the
company. Mr.. CoUzENs also put q
tremendous amount Of hard work into
the company. He lhbored early and
late, in days Of adversely and In days
Of prosperity, as hard as HENRY FoRr
did, to make the concern a success.
In the early 1900s, when HENRY
FORD was trying. to get his company
going, everybody had chance to "gel
in on the ground floor" No sun
would have been too small to buy a
chance then, but most people had nc

Making . Mockery OF Liberty.

A despatch from Cleveland, Ohio
one Of the cities affected by the strike
Of steel workers, says:
'The police have taken Arm
stand against importation of strike
breakers
They arrested hfty-nine men
brought from Detroit by O steel
concern.
"The prisoners had the choice Of
appearing In court or going back
to Detroit.
THE police herded them on a De-
troit bound boat at midnight.
The police hold that by keeping
out strikebreakers the chance Of vio-
lence will be minimized."
What legal authority the police of
Cleveland, or Of any other city, have
to arrest men who are guilty of no
offence. but only. want to work, does
not appear.
The police certainly have no legal
authority to compel men who do not
want to work to go back to the shops
they have quit.
Yet between barring men from law.
full work they want to do and COM
polling men to do lawful work they
do not want to do we can see, legally,
no whit Of difference. To do either
of these things is to abuse the police
power and pervert 1t for purposes II
was never intended to serve.
To minimize "the chance of vio-
lence" lawbreaking should be sup
pressed and lawbreakers punished. To
attempt to do It by establishing dead
lines against orderly workingmen is
simply to make mockery of liberty.

already brought the United States and
Its people into unnecessary collision
with friendly Power and its popula-

to put up even a small sum to back
his prospects. The men who had that
courage and who went into the COM
pany formed In 1908 were richly re-
warded. Mr.. CoUzENs was then a
clerk, with salary of $500 year.
He had saved $500; because he was a
faithful clerk his employer gave him
$500; he borrowed 500 from his
sister. and wrote his note for $500.
This was the form In which his in
vestment was made.
The Ford fortunes are particularly
interesting because they have been
won solely by the merit Of the Ford
product and the skill Of the Ford
management. No special privileges,
no public franchises, no unusual op-
portunities were open to the COM
pany. 1t has never oppressed" or
exploited" its employees. Its record
discloses the possibilities that abound
in America for men of brains and in
dustry and grit, and the opportunities
are more. numerous to-day than they
ever have been.

THE LOST OFFICE BOY.
Where Is He Who Had an Interest
In other Things Than Leisure3

To THE EDITOR OF THE SuN--Sir: No
doubt many employers are asking them
selves nowadays what has become of the
old fashioned Office boy, the kind that
used to come looking for employment
with hat in hand ready to start work on
the spot and willing to accept reasonable
wages and hours Of employment.
And we'll might they ask themselves
the question. for the office boy problem Is
one of the most pressing and puazling of
the day. Obviously the old fashioned
office boy has disappeared entirely or at
least IL any of the species still remains
he is so scarce that It is like looking for
a needle in a haystack to find one. Those
who have the handling of large numbers
Of boys are agreed on this.
The transformation OF the Office boy
has not been for the better from the
employers viewpoint The old fashioned
Coy has been superseded in the main by
an entirely different type of boy. one
who looks for nothing but easy hours and
good wages without too much work in
return for what he demands from his
employer. Moreover, the present day
boy manifests an entirely different spirit
from the old fashioned type. and his only
interest seems to be how long 1t will be
necessary for him to work before his
employer will increase his pay
Not many years ago a good office boy
could be hired for SIS or SO a week and
the thought OF whether he would be on
every Saturday afternoon and every holi-
day was not uppermost in his mind. He
seemed to take an interest in his work
and stuck to the job with the intention
OF improving himself and going ahead.
Unlike the present day boy who values
his services at S12 or SIS a week. with
a half holiday each Saturday and short
hours on other days. the old fashioned
boy was industrious, punctual and re-
sourcefuL But this type is no longer
extant. EMPLOYER

STREET CAR FARES.
why Should the Taxpayers Put Up
for the Passengersi

To THE EDITOR OF THE SUN-Sir: why
should the property holders OF New
York or any other city pay the street
car fares Of the hordes of people who
use them7
fhe property holders will inevitably
be taxed to keep the cars running II the
people who use them don't pay the cost
of operation. Those who crowd the cars
are demanding the highest wages and
the lowest cost of everything they use.
Why should they not pay what 1t costs
to ride back and forth to their work.
There are practical difficulties con-
nected with collecting seven cent or eight
cent fares In the making Of change and
the delay It causes This trouble might
be greatly reduced by selling tickets f;
say, four for twenty-five cents. and
charging seven cents for a single fare.
Regular riders would buy tickets to save
the difference. and much time now lost
in making change would be. saved. Some
tickets would be lost, which would bene-
fiji the roads to that extent. and the con-
yenience Of using tickets would soon out
weigh the irritation of paying one and
a quarter cents more for a ride.
Persons come to think that conven-
iences are rights; but no one has the
right to ride at less than II costs some
one else to furnish the conveyance How
gladly would the people In times Of
street oar strikes pay several times the
fare to ride promptly and comfortably (;
but in peaceful times how easily they
forget the benefits they enjoy at the cost
of next to the smallest of our coins.

Moving Day.

The wretched citizen who has to
move on October l will regard as
merely tantalizing the ordinance. now
under consideration by the Aldermen's
Committee on General Welfare, which
would regulate the price of vans and
labor. Even II the resolution should
be passed at the boards meeting next
Tuesday and Immediately be signed
by the Mayor only few hours would
elapse before Moving Day arrived. Is
the citizen to wait until the evening
of September 30 ant then, learning
that the Aldermen have fixed new
and low rates, to run out and find a
van or a dray and Its jolly crew Of
movers?
That Is not the way New York folks
go about the serious business Of hav-
ing their chattels transferred. Almost
everybody who must leave the old fat
next Wednesday has by this time
signed articles with the movers; and
we are pretty sure that few OF them
are so fortunate as to have engaged
huge vans at $3.50 an hour or strong
men at 80 cents an hour. Assuming
that one van load can be loaded.
carried and unloaded in three hours,
moving in New York, under the pro-
posed ordinance, would cost only
$16.60. four mems services included.
This Is, or would be, too good to be
true, unless 1t be assumed thst so few
persons are going to move that the
van business Is below normal.
Are many families to move? To
hear the cries of the evicted-those
unfortunates who are being driven
from habtations whose yearly rental
ranges from 5000 to S6,000-it would
seem that all New York. would he on
wheels. But the real estate agents
will tell you that people are not going
to move because there Is no place to
move to. True. all over town we see
old houses being transformed into
apartments of "two and bath" but to
the leaseless seeker Of a place to lay
his head the carpenters and plumbers
appear to move with feet of lead.

Herbert Hooyer.s Latest Economics.

Mr.. HERBERT HOOVER, to whom we
are 30 largely indebted for the pre-
cious privilege Of paying in peace
times, as we paid in war times, fam
Inc prices for our food, although In
this country there Is a superabun-
dance of wheat and corn, of cattle and
hogs-of all general provisions-has
given the American people some more
weird economic advice. In San Fran
cisco he assured them that they could
rectify In three months the whole
trouble by not buying any clothing or
shoes for those three months.
Like our illustrious Chief Magis-
trate, Mr.. Hoover for long stretches
has been out Of this country much
more than he has been in 1t. Like
our vocational President, he has been
far more interested in the troubles
and problems. the affairs and for
tunes of foreign peoples than he has
in those of our own America. Yet,
as Mr.. WILSON In his long absences
from his post of duty must have
heard some facts and rumors about
the American people and their achieve
ments, SO Mr.. HoovER. far across the
seas. must have gained some infor-
nation about what these same Ameri-
can people were doing at home.
Perhaps Mr.. Hoover has forgotten
that while this country was at war
the American people very largely went
without new clothes as part Of their
help In winning the war. They wore
their old suits threadbare. They had
their shoes resoled and again resoled.
They took the money they might have
spent In dressing themselves and put
II into bonds to pay. for munitions, to
pay for feeding and clothing our splen-
did army. to provide our Governments
prodigious loans to the Allies
Perhaps, when he stops to think
about 1t, Mr.. HoovEn may realize that
after having done n minimum of
clothes buying for some two years
the American people, when the war
was over, really had to reclothe them
selves. Perhaps he may comprehend
that when a nation of 1O0,OOo,O0 pop
ulation rushed all at once to the tailor
and clothing shops this Imperative de-
mand projected a consolidated buying
power against limited supply which
shot costs of production and prices
into the skies
Perhaps Mr.. HOOVER may then con-
clude that If all buying of garments
stopped now. as he urges, and produc-
ton, Of course, stopped along with
the buying, as 1t would, when there
was no selling market for the prod
uct, we should have, three months
from now, still another catapulting
skyward of clothing prices when all
the American people again rushed Into
the market to outfit themselves against
the freezing days Of winter already
upon them.
Such nonsense as Mr.. Hoover has
delivered himself of on the subject of
clothing prices Is no more absurd, and
no less, than 1t would be for him to
counsel the American people to solve
this clothing price problem by casting
away all their clothes for all time and
running naked like savages in the
woods Of Africa.
