Big Year for "Movies"

What is there to worry about? The
motion picture is getting bigger and
better every day.
Every morning the sun rises on a
brighter day in the industry, for every
day marks progress in some depart
ment of this big game.
In 1921 the people of the United
States will pay $1,095, 100000 to see
motion pictures.
And this is not all. for before mid
night strikes on December 81. 1921.
nearly 1000 more churches will have
installed projection machines and be
exhibiting motion pictures.
What effect will this have on produc-
tion and attendance at motion picture
theaters?
Churches Will Help.
It will encourage production of bet
ter pictures and will increase attend
ance at theaters because some 10000
900 good church people who do not now
attend the theaters will be won over
to the support Of the motion picture

by seeing it in their own church homes.
What is the matter with the pic
lures?
There is nothing inherently wrong
with the pictures nor the industry nor
the people in the industry. The trou
bic insofar as we can see it is in the
system of financing, or rather the lack
of system of financing. 1t is all u
matter of banking, pure and simple.
and little else. Everybody knows that
there is money in producing motion
pictures. Nothing else save oil pays
so well, but the oil project can be fl
nanced at the banks, while the motion
picture must go begging about here and
there among individuals for it's financ-
ing.
No System of Finance.
Fancy, if you can. billion dollar
industry with no banker, with no sys
TEN of finance, and with no hard and
fast lines of marketing that insure
the producer his cost back when his
picture is ready for release.
But why worry? The astute finan
cial doctors Of the United States will
not let a ne-billion dollar melon grow
wild very long, and we may expect any

MEDICINAL BEER
REGULATIONS SOON
WILL Be ISSUED
The Atlanta Journal News Bureau,
623 Riggs Building.
BY THEODORE TILLER

WASHINGTON, May 26.-The I'M
Outstanding here is that soon after
the new commissioner of internal
revenue takes office, Secretary Mel
Ion will approve the issuance of reg
beer on physicians prescription.
These regulations are said to have
been prepared in tentative form and
await the inspection of Secretary
Mellon and Commissioner Blair, who
is expected to take office as soon
as confirmed by the senate.
Meanwhile, the ultra-drys in the
house, spurred on by the Anti-Saloon
league, are trying to enact emer-
gency legislation forbidding the pre-
scribing of beer, and setting aside
the ruling of Former Attorney Gen
eral Palmer, that beer prescriptions
were legal. Such a restrictive bill
is being rapidly whipped into shape
by the judiciary committee.
Secretary Mellon has indicated
that he believes the beer regulations
should be issued by the treasury de-
partment and the Palmer ruling put
into effect. 1t appears to be a race
between Mr.. Mellon and the drys on
capitol hill.
That numerous breWeries are ready
to turn out four per cent beer for
medicine as soon as the medical beer
regulations are issued is claimed
here by the dry advocates. These
claims are not denied and the brew
cries seem to be ready to supply beer
as a medicine as soon as the reg
ulations are. officially announced.
Federal rulings, of course, would
not permit the issuance of beer pre-
scriptions in states that have local
laws forbidding a doctor to pre-
scribe alcohol in any form for sick
ness. 1t would let down the gates
of moisture, however, in states
where there are no state laws pro-
hibiting beer as medicine. That
the Palmer ruling will be put into
effect by the treasury department
as soon as the new commissioner
qualities is the general understand
ing here.

Stillman Divorce
Hearings to Start
Again on Wednesday

NEW YORK, May Chickering's in
the divorce suit brought by James
A. Stillman. millionaire banker,
against Mrs Anne U. Stillman will
be resumed next Wednesday before
Referee Daniel G. Gleason, at Pough
keepsie.
This announcement, made by one
of Mrs. Stillman's attorneys We'd
nesday, was taken as an indication
that the settlement negotiatio said
to have been inaugurated by counsel
for the banker had come to a halt.
Refusal of Mrs. Stillman to comply
with her husbands demand that she
live abroad for five years after the
suit has been formally withdrawn
was reported to be the reason for
legged to have been imposed by Mr..
Stillman's attorneys, was that she
give her consent for the children to
choose between their parents. This,
it is said, she has declined to do.
Mr.. StiIlman's offer is reported to
have included the withdrawal of his
suit, legal recognition of the legit-
imacy of the infant, Guy Stillman
whose paternity has been questioned
in the proceedings, and the granting
of an allowance of between $4,000
and 100000 a year to Mrs. Stillman.
Mrs. Stillman plans to attend the
hearing Wednesday with her son Guy.

Purchasing Power
OF Dollar Increasing
As Depression Wanes

WASHINGTON, May PLEASED
on it's pre-war value, the dollar today
has a purchasing power of II IA
cents, Prof. Irving Fisher, of Yale,
said today when he arrived for the
Stable Money league meeting, to
convene tomorrow.
Two weeks ago the dollars pur-
chasing power was II cents, four
weeks ago it was wirth II IL cents
and two months ago it could only
buy 6S 1-2 cents worth of merchan-
disc.
What the StabIe Money league
proposes to do is to make the dollar
behave and at all times have value
| of 100 cents.
Prog. Fisher, an economist and
author of several books on econom-
| les, believes the dollar can be sta
! bilized by making it shrink and ex-
pand with the fluctuating prices of
| necessaries. At the meeting tomor-
| row he will answer criticisms of his
| plan by bankers and others.
Prof. Fisher today declared that
| the end of the business depression
| is at hand. A change for the better
is now going on and the general i'm
provement will be seen within the
next two weeks, he said. His pre-
diction is based on the steadily in
creasing purchasing power of the
! dollar a. reflected by two hundred

AMERICA To INCLUDE.
ARMIES IN MOVE To
SLASH ARMAMENTS.
BY DAVID LAWRENCE
Ueased Wire Service to The Journal.)
Copyright, 1921


WASHINGTON, May 27.-Presi-
dent Harding and Representative
Mondell, Republican leader of the
house. have practically agreed that if
any expression is made by the con-
gress of the United States on the
subject of disarmament it ought to
include, not merely the reduction of
naval armament, but the land arma-
ment s well.
Mr.. Mondell today asked the pres
ident's advice on a situation which
has arisen in the house which must
unanim olsly adopted by the senate
and providing merely that the Unit
ed States consult with Japan and
Great Britain about the reduction Of
naval armament. The house mem
bership, generally speaking, feels
that the Borah resolution is not
broad enough and that not only the
naval but the military forces of the
world should be reduced in size in
order that the tax burden may be
less everywhere and economic recon-
struction thus aided.
Would Broaden Scope
Again and again the house has ex-
pressed itself in favor of either a
naval holiday or general disarma-
ment and Representative Mondell
told the president that he believed
that the house would like to broaden
the scope of the Borah resolution.
He inquired if Mr.. Harding had any
objection to such course and found
that the president would sign any
resolution which the leaders of both
houses worked out.
The president is committed to dis
armament-so are all the Republican
leaders-but the method and form of
reaching a conclusion on this vital
subject has brought out some differ
ences of opinion. Fundamentally,
there was no objection to Mr. b.
rah's purpose, but it was felt that
the subject was one that should be
left to the president to work out in
his own way.
