April 29. 1921. To the Editor:
 Your editorial Of today, entitled "A Tariff on Films" is based On two false premises.
 The Actors Equity association is not another name for the motion picture trust" but is instead. a union of theatrical people. affiliated with the American Federation of Labor. It was this organization which led the famous strike against the mana gers trust two years ago and which has done much to improve stage con-z ditions. While motion picture arsors are members of the equity, tlz9y do not constitute fifth of the mem bership.
 It is not exactly true that motion picture producers have grown enor- mously wealthy. Some have, unQues- tionably. but where are Triangle. Mutual, Biograph. Edison. s. & A. Lubin and dozens of others that buiked big? The receivers courts can best answer.
 The proposed tariff is not limited at the general foreign picture. France does not and has not produced sue cessful pictures. Some few super serials have come from Italy. but of these just two have been equal tn
 
 | become profitable. English pictures come over in small quantity. though not six of the English importations save those made by an English | branch of an American company. have been profitable. The only truly | successful foreign pictures of recent years have come from Germany, and Germany has already put in | force restrictions against American | screen productions. The proposed tariff is not one of economies. not one of art, but a matter of de- | cent reprisals.
 | You are familiar with living condi ! tions abroad with the natural ex | treme low wages of Germany due to | her present values of the German mark and Lubitsch. her leading pro | ducer. has been enabled to use a i mob" of ,000 extras at a cost equiv alent to what would be paid 500 l Americans If. then, in addition to the debased- currency lows costs of German production. plus her present | absolute restrictions against AmerP can films. we appeal 10 congress to enact retailiatory legislationy is that ! anything but common sense2 You make comparison and ask what should we think of American sculp- tors writers who asked congress tc legislate against foreign artists? Does not our copyright laws protect them Why not ask, what should we think of German artists German actors who appealed to Ebert to bar oui | American artists? Yet that is tn. } effect of the German restrictions Have Americans not the right to ev , en the score9 Please keep in mfnl { that the proposed tariff against for eigu films iuiures no one save Ger 2 many and that she is the agEres- < or iu this instance as in 1914

Find Iron Deposits.

wINSI SIOW-Seyeral months ago the Keith Brothers acquired rights to A large acreage of iron bearing lands on the Apache reservation 50 miles south of Winslow. Early in Septem- Der they closed an option with the Colorado Fuel and Iron company. with headquarters at Pueblo, Colo. for development of this property. K. L.. Keith, accompanied by l.. B. Weed, superintendent for the C. F. & L. CO returned early this week from ten days trip to the property and sey- eral days interview with Charles L.. Davis superintendent of the Apache Reservation at White River. One of the objects of the visit was to adjust some minor details in the govern ment lease which was drawn appli- cable to the handling of the more precious metals. Among other mat ters figured out was that the pres ent iron bodies paying the Indians a royalty of 20 cents per ton would net them s20,000 per acre. This is no insignificant sum and indicates the extent of the iron deposits. The iron is hematite running well above 55 per cent metallic content and has a general thickness of twenty feet Approximately a thousand acres are included in the government lease Mail.

 SELL BEEN HUR" FILM RIGHTS
 All dramatic rights to General Lew Wallace's Ben Hur.r which, for 20 wears has been one of the most sue cessful dramatic productions in the country. have been acquired from the Wallace estate by A L. Erlanger- Charles B. Dillingham; and Florenz Ziegfeld. Jr., for what is said to be a record price Included in the transaction are the motion picture rights. for which 1 million dollars IS said to have been paid. The pre- vious high mark for film rights was $l75.O00. paid by David w. Grlfiith ! for Way Down East"
 Ben Hur' has been sent on tour every season but the present one since it was first produced It was originally presented by klaw x Er- ! lanEer. and it was stipulated that all | rights should revert to the Wallace l, estate if seventy-five performances were not given each season. The 1 break between Marc klaw and A. L. ! Erlanger interfered with the presen- | tation of the play this season-the piece was placed on rehearsal on two occasions. but was abandoned | both times.
 The Messrs. Erlanger. Dillingham; and Ziegfeld probably will send the play on tour again next season. since if is recognized that it has far from
 exhausted it's popularity. It was
 originally produced November 20 1899. at the Broadway theater, and it's total receipts since that time have been close to 10 million dollars More than 20 million persons have seen the
 play.

THE GOLDEN JUBILEE CELEBRA
TON.

This is the Golden Jubilee year of
Mt. Carmel Convent on the Teche,
and big celebration is being plan
ned for the early spring. All of its
pupils, past and present, are eager to
help in its celebration.
Within recent years great improve
ments have taken place at this school,
an addition of brick building was
a necessary expense, by hard work
the Sisters have been able to parti-
ally pay the debt, but small balance
is still due. This with other eXpen-
ses have since accumulated, and now
a roof to the new building is an alb
solute necessity.
A meeting of the pupils and friends
is called for next Tuesday, January
II, at three o'clock in ST. Berch-
mans Hall. We hope large crowd
will respond and thus encourage the
Sisters by their good will. A spe-
cial invitation is extended to the
graduates.

HOW "ERNEST" LOST HIS
SMILE.

Most everybody knows Mr.. Ernest
David, genial butcher and meat deal
err, who for many years has supplied
large part of New Iberia with their
roasts, steaks and juicy Pork Chops
And everyone who knows him knows
his carefree smile-the smile he has
worn for-we don't know how old he
is-but ever since he was born.
Well, Thursday morning "Ernest's'
SMILE was missing, also missing
were those juicy steaks and roasts
and chops from his customers tables,
and worst of all-all four wheels
were also missing from Mr.. David's
delivery wagon.
1t seems that on Wednesday night
Mr.. David had left his meat wagon
up town where he was to load his
meat Thursday morning. But when
he got on the Job Thursday morning
the wagon was there, but all the
wheels had "rolled away" or more
likely been stolen.
SO that is why his customers miss
ed their meat and his friends missed
the old time smile.

Several new arrests were made
the past week in this district for
selling intoxicating liquors. One
man in Plaisance, near Opelousas
was arrested on the charge of selling
sugar house beer" fermented con-
coction which originated from the
skimmings during the boiling of sy-
rup. The case in question, it ap-
pears, originated when several young
men from Grand Prairie visited the
accused party and bought this "beer'
and returned home drunk. Closely
questioned by the officers as to where
they obtained the "Oh-be- joyful
they broke down told the source of
supply and the charge was immedi-
ately made against the seller of the
concoction.
A unique development in the diff
ferent phrases Of the Volstead law
came when Albert Breaux, white
man of Lafayette, was arrested dur
ing the week by federal officers charg-
ed with advertising and giving in
formation" where intoxicating liquor
could be obtained. He was brought
to Opelousas and lodged in Jail in de-
fault of furnishing bond. This it is
admitted, is a test case, and if the
defendant is found guilty it will es-
tablish something new in the enforce
ment law, in that person who tells
another where he can buy contraband
liquor is as guilty, perhaps, as the
one who sells it..
