Premier Theatre Patrons
Assured of Best Photo
Plays for Coming Year

/ Tomorrow the Premier Theatre il
Newport inaugurates a new policy
Manager Burns is convinced after
months of careful study that his pat.
rons want the very best and latest
in motion pictures. A new contract
has been signed with Famous Play
crs-Lasky Corporation at an eX-
pense of thousands of dollars where
by the patrons of the Premier during
the new year will be offered only the
very best and latest photoplays.
In speaking of the new deal, Man
ager Burns said; "My idea is to
make the Premier theatre the very
best in this part of the state. OuI
audiences want only the finest of
photoplays, presented in the highest
class way. With this in mind,
have just signed new contract for
ParamountArtcraft pictures at fig
ure far in advance of any in the past.
"Of course, this will necessitate
that we increase our prices slightly,
to meet the high rentals of these
super-fne pictures. | feel sure, how
ever, that the public is willing to pay
a few cents more for theatre seat,
when it knows it is paying for the
very best obtainable. My patrons re
present the best element in Newport,
and therefore demand the best pic,
lures that / can buy. could easily
contract for inferior pictures and pro
badly reduce my prices, but it is my
plan to give only the best on the mar
ket.
"Pictures, along with food, cloth
ing and everything else, have gonc
up. We all know what it costs to buy
a new dress suit, so it is not hard to
imagine the tremendous additional eX
pense a picture producing company is
under when it starts to make u five
or seven reel feature with hundreds
of players, many changes of scenes
and a wardrobe of thousands o.
gowns and costumes. Actors salaries
have increased by leaps and bounds,
to mention just another item. Of
course, this additional cost must be
met, and is passed on to US in the
form Of increased rentals. If we wish
to continue in business and still Offer
our public the best in motion picture
we. have to follow the lead of tn
butcher, the baker and the candle
stick maker, and increase our price,
to the public.
"But in this instance continued
MI. Burns, 81 am sure the public will
not kick, for we will be able to give
it the very best in motion pictures"

it would not be inappropriate.
Mr.. Young's subject was People

some Of the great problems con-
fronting us as nation. M
Young said the signing of the De-
claration Of Independence marks a

tions and the revolutionary move
ments that have come from the
clashing of large interests.
He described Socialism, Capital
ism, Syndicalism and Anarchism, and
the developments of what he called
state socialism. Mr.. Young believes
it can be carried so far as to be Diet
rimental to the best interests of the
nation and its people.
Nh. Young said 81 am an optimist
and while it is hard to see the flu
ture, am sure the good sense of the
American people will find solution
for this and the other great problems
HOW racing tHe country.
ut is the function of government
to govern. | am fam believer that
the government that governs least,
while still maintaining law and order,
and leaves the greatest freedom of
action to the individual consistent
with the exercise of similar rights by
others and which encourages rather
than discourages individual initiative
is best.
Economic laws cannot be de-,
feated or overcome by legislative de-
cree. High cost of living can be re-
duced only by production suffi-
cient to meet the demand at wages
that are reasonable when measured
by the quantity and quality of the
production.
In those industries where the en-
tire public are concerned like trans
portation and mining of fuel, and all
public utilities, strikes must be
abolished, and some other. means fur
nished to settle differences between
and their employees.
"And finally there must be great
er assimilation of the foreign clement
in our population, great American

ton is the BIGGEST thing in America.
Let us teach its fundamentals to our
children, who have come. to us from
foreign lands, attracted by the affin-
ity of those two glorious words,
America and Freedom.
The final solution of these ques.

O'Hara Wants Return
Match With BOreIla

Fred O'Hara, champion middle
weight wrestler of the Eastern Town
ships of Canada, who was defeated
recently in Asbestos, P. O., by Charlie
Borella, Newport's clever young mat
artist, is anxious to stage a "come
back" and has petitioned the Record
CALIFORNIAN to publish his challenge
to the local boy. He writes the sport
ing editor as follows:
81 challenge Mr.. Borella to a finish
match in Asbestos within the next
three weeks with side bet of 500.
Signed,
Fred O'Hara,
Middleweight champion of Eastern
Townships.
The writer has met O'Hara and can
say that he is a fine specimen of man.
hood and clean wrestler. O'Hara
served overseas with the Canadian
Expcditionaary forces and established
a fine record in the service. He is a
"Fighting Irishman" and is as fast
as lightning on the mat. He weighs
around ITO pounds, which is twenty
five pounds heavier than Borella.
The local champ, however, is a real
game sport and size or weight is not
taken into consideration when he
seeks a match.

BISHOP STORTFORD, England, Oc-

Twelve railwaymen employed at the
station here. who remained at their
posts during the recent strike, have
been present ed with a sum of money
and an address of appreciation by
the townspeople. The Countess of
Warwick. who has a residence here
and uses the station when living in
town. was invited to contribute to
the fund. She sent this response:
Lady Warwick is amazed at the
communication sent her which she
returns herewith. 1t is incredible
that any thoughtful person should
commend disloyalty to a union for
monetary reward.
The railwaymen who stood aside
reap the benefits of the great victory
achieved by their fellows, as did the
occupants of snug and safe berths
during the war while others fought
for them.

The English custom of giving the
prince a blossom from the holy thorn
of Glastonbury" whenever he visits
Glastonbury abbey was observed when
Bishop Harding presented the royal
visitor with a silver box containing a
blossom from the thorn on the cath
edral grounds, cutting from the ia
nous tree in England. But one bios
som appeared on the tree yesterday.
and this was picked as a souvenir for
the prince.
With Bishop Harding the prince
drove ABOUT the GROUNDS anu was
shown the plans for the Washington
Cathedral, now in course of erection.
He showed the keenest interest in the
work and in the stones brought from
the Holy Land and from England to be
placed in the great building.
On leaving the prince asked that the
school children be given a holiday for
the afternoon, and this was readily
granted, the~ cheers of the children
voicing their thanks as he drove

RATES THE AUTOMOBILE
AN ENEMY OF MORALITY
DR.. B. S. Steadwe1l Tells Citizen
ship Congress It Is Worse Men
ace Than Red-Light Districts.

PITTSBURGH, Pa. November IL
The automobile was declared to be "a
greater menace to morality today
than red light districts were thirty
years ago. by DR.. 3. S. Steadwell of
Lacrosse. Wis, in a report of the
world commission on social purity at
the worlds Christian citizenship con-
ference here today.
Motor cars" said the speaker,
bring the country roadhouse practi-
cally to the city limits. This was the
difficulty with the anti-vice zones sur
rounding our military camps. They
were not large enough, The perfec-
ton of transportation facilities pop
ularized the distant resort twenty,
thirty and even fifty miles away.
To-day we appear to be getting
what we have been asking fora sin
gle standard of morals. But the trou-
BILE with this single standard is that
it is a low standard. The libertine
has never been denied our best So
ciety or the freedom of our best
homes. Today the cigarette smoking
woman is not denied our best society
if no open scandal has resulted from
her exploits. The single standard
that we desire is one that will place
men upon as high moral plane as
we formerly demanded for women"

AVOID Jay WALKING"
Urged FOR SAFETY
Crossing Streets at Right Angles
Would Prevent Many Auto Ac-
, cidents, Asserted.

Compliance with the suggestion in
the police regulations that pedestrians
should cross public thoroughfares at
right angles. preferably at regular
crossing at the end of q block. would
be the means of preventing many ia
talities in which automobiles figure"
said an interested person to a Star re-
porter this morning.
In many other cities the traffic
regulations require such crossing and
their enforcement means that few So
called jaywalkers' are killed or in
1ured." he added. why not such a
regulation for Washington"
In an effort to explain the rights
and duties of both drivers and pedes-
trians, the Commissioners, in the traf-
f1c regulations, stated that the streets
are primarily intended for vehicles
and street cars, but added that drivers
must exercise all possible care not to
injure pedestrians
A motorist pointed out that no
driver of vehicle is purposely going
to lnjure pedestrian, knowing such
accidents are liable to result in injury
to themselves and possibly cause an
amount of trouble and expense. When
pedestrians persist in carelesSness,
however, he added, it makes it appear
that they are merely courting injury.
