Norma Talmadge believes that at

rule, lay enough stress on careful
accuracy OF detail and artistic
nicely. In the four to SIX weeks
which constitute the average
amount of time allotted to the
making of picture, the director
has about all he can do to con-
centrate on the story and guide
the players IN the Interpretation
of their parts. It would be an
enormous help to him to have
some one always at call who could
spend hours at the library looking
up the correct costume for 1873,
the particular ceremonies Of a
particular Indian tribes war dance
the type of minuet danced at the
court OF Louis XVI, etc.; some
one who could bring him the

SNAC IN HOUSE
Lower House Committee Refuses 10
Aid Senators In Concurrent
Resolution.

Washington, Dec. 3.-The plan Of
Republican Senator leaders to de
clare state of peace by concurrent
resolution of Congress struck snag
in the House.
Chairman Porter of the Foreign
Affairs Committee said his commit
tee had no intention of reporting out
such a resolution, and it was indi-
Gated that House leaders supported
this position.
The position taken by the House
Republican was said to be that re-
peal of the Wartime legislation,
which extends until peace is estab-
lished, would be a more acceptable
method of restoring normal condi-
tions, and that the question of peace
was one which the President and the
Senate, constituting the treaty-mak-
ing power, should determine.
The stand of the House Republi-
can leaders was accepted as at least
blocking the plan of Republican SEN
ators to have the House act first on
peace resolution,
In the Senate such resolution has
been presented by Senator Lodge,
the Republican leader, and now is in
the hands of the Foreign Relations
Committee. Members thought to-
i, night that the committee probably
would not take it up when it meets
tomorrow for the first time in the
new session.
In the Senate the resolution faces
Unborn Democratic opposition, and
it was predicted by many Senators
that no effort to bring it to a vote
would be made in the immediate flu,
ture.
1t was explained that while Chair
man Porter opposed concurrent re
solution, he would not oppose a JOIN
resolution which requires the Presi
dents signature. Democrats sal
the president never would sign sucl
a resolution and that it could not b
passed over his veto.
