PERSONETTE
By Niksah JOHN A, QUINN

Ut would be wellv thought John A. Quinn one day, eff movie actors would interpret their parts instead of themselves. And furthermore it would be well if there were just little of the sincerity and artistic conscience. in the movies that there are in the other arts"
 When Mir. Quinn first thought these obvious truisrns he was managing a large clothing concern in New York. but, unlike most people. he didn't just complain-he did something In fact, the motto of the M- P. T., of which he is president. is Don't Scold--Do Some : thing" First he studied acting, then he studied producing, and then he pro- duced moving pictures most success fully. He was widely known for his slogan. Fewer and Better Films"
 Now he has organized and is presi- dent of the Motion Picture Theatrical League for Better Pictures. known for the sake of brevity as the NJ. P. T. This organization has been quietly gather ing strength and backing for two years. and recently. with a great flourish has burst into the public prints, where it's advent was welcomed with large signs of relief from many movie sufferers.

ASK COURT ORDER ID
 KEEP PROF|TEER|NG
 EVIDENCE FROM JURY
IRepublican A. P.Leased wire1

Republican A. P. Leased Wirel PUEBLO, Colo, April S.-While ar guments of attorneys representing II
 Denver retail clothing and shoe dealers were being presented before Judge
 Robert E. Lewis, in the United States
 district court in session here today, on
 the petition asking the court to grant an injunction to prevent the United States district attorney from present ing to the federal grand jury evidence he claims to have regarding their al legged profiteering, petition was being filed in the office of the clerk of the court by three wholesale coal dealers of Colorado making a similar plea and asking that the attorney be restrained from presenting evidence he claims to have regarding their alleged profiteer- ing.
 The petition was filed by Attorney ' c. Northcutt of Denver, representing the Temple Fuel company. the Rocky
 Mountain Fuel company and the Huer- fano Fuel company.
 The clauses of the petition are almost identical with those of the petition filed by the Denver merchants. When
 the court recessed at 5:30 o'clock this evening, Harry B. Tedrow, United States district attorney, was presenting
 to Judge Robert F. Lewis his side of the case wherein the attorneys of four Dem yer clothing and shoe dealers are ask
 ing the judge to issue a restraining order to prevent him from presenting
 to the grand jury evidence he claims to have against the dealers for alleged profiteering. MT. Tedrow will complete his arguments tomorrow morning
 The case opened at 30 o'clock this morning. c. c. Dorsey, one of the at torneys for the defense. opened by reading to the court a copy of the com plaint against the district attorney. For four hours and half he argued the legality of the district attorney en- deavoring to prosecute the defendants under the provisions of the Lever food and fuel control act. The argument was based largely upon the proposition of whether or not the war is over, and whether or not, if the war is over, the Lever act is still in effect. The con stitutionality of the Lever act was also questioned and third argument was the wording of the provisions of the act. which attorneys of the Denver merchants declare is not definite enough to permit prosecutions of the Denver merchants under the act.
