AMERICAN MOVIES CHANGE
SOUTH SEA ISLAND LIFE

PAPEETE. Tahiti. Sept 1O.-The
movie industry has descended upon
Tahiti, and this isle in the South Seas
is all cluttered up with actresses OF
the screen, directors and camera men.
The native meanwhile. with growing
wonder. is being further Initiated into
the splendors OF civilization.
He has seen fat women in pants
moving majestically along the water
front and has beheld the ultra fashion
able bathing clothes popular in the
American movies.
These last, however. have been a bit
to much for the Papeete police, and
they have decreed that in this corner
Of the South Sea islands such things
must not be.

he does so through an interpreter, al
though the admiral understands Eng

has the most inscrutable expression in
Washington. His brow is high and
rounded and finely lined. His cneek-
bones are high, his cheeks hollow, his

Suspension of Navy
Building Will Be
Pressed in Senate
King, of Utah, Announces He
Will Demand DENLY and
Aids Be Summoned Be-
fore Committee Hearing

From The Tribunc's Washington Baveaa
WASHINGTON, Nov. 17-In spite of
efforts on the part of Senate leaders
questions having direct bearing on
the Conference on Limitation of Arnaa-
ment, the issue Of immediate suspen-
sion of naval construction will be
forced to the front, according to Sena-
tor King, Of Utah, member Of the
Naval Affairs Committee.
Just when leaders had concluded
they had the Pomerene resolution for
suspension Of construction headed off,
Senator King prepared to press the
question In another form. He an
nounced to-day that when the Senate
Naval Affairs Committee meets next
Tuesday, its regular meeting dag, he
would demand consideration of his own
resolution to suspend construction and
would further insist that chieftains OF
the Navy Department be called before
the committee to express their views.
He will ask that Secretary Denby,
Admiral Coontz, chief of operations;
Admiral Taylor, chief of construction;
Rear Admrals Sims and FuIlam ard
others be called.
If the committee refuses to act, SEN
ator King will carry the matter to the
floor of the Senate for debate. Thus,
it seems, the problem Of immediate
suspension cannot easily be side
tracked, except by adjournment of the
extra session. The committee is not
expected to accede to Senator Kings
demand.
Senator Kings resolution directs the
Navy Department to suspend construc-
ton on all battleships and battle
cruisers which are now in the course
of construction, either at government
yards or in the yards OF contractors.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 17.-Thcsc
arc strenuous days for tho reg
ular correspondents and the COR
respondents extraordinary and pleni
potentiary assembled in Washington
from the far corners of the earth to
dilate on the conference doings. Aside
from preparing their momentous dis
patches their chief concern is what to
wear and how TO find time to wear it.
This matter Of dress is really of
greater moment to the foreign CORE
spondents than to the Americans. The
English, for instance, step out after
breakfast in correct morning attire.
Many of them get in a round Of golf
in the early afternoon, which necessi~
tates change to knickers and "some
thing rough and ready" Golf over,
the program again calls for formal
dress in which to appear at Lady
Blanks tea or Mr.. Trayned Scales re
ception. From there it means a quick
dash to the "chambers' and into a
dinner coat, or often into complete
evening dress, upon which is blazoned
the full complement Of ribbons and
decorations to which the wearer is
entitled.
Monoclcs are not so popular among
the British at the present moment as
they are among the French. Of them
all the one who handles his eyepiece
with the greatest agility is Pertinax
He has been known to wear his monocle
without adjusting it for a longer pc
riod than any other man now in Wash
ington, and he has amazed some of his
American friends by his ability to wink

of the lens. The average man who
wears a monocle is obliged from time
to time to readjust it, and makes
practice of occasionally giving tre-
mendous wink which causes the glass
to fall out. But not so Pertinax His
monocle remains undisturbed by his
various gestures, and it has even been
rumored that he wears it while he
sleeps
American and foreign newspaper cor
respondents are to pit their golf
prowess against each other in a special
match to be staged during the confer
ence sessions on one of the links Of
Washington. The British are the chief
challengers, Lord Riddell of the British
delegation, and Joe Grigg having is
sued the defy, which was promptly ac-
cepted on behalf of the American writ
ers by Robert Barry, chairman Of the
standing committee of correspondents.
Having accepted the challenge, Barry
tonight issued the following call to
the golf experts Of the Washington
clan of writers:
Acting in behalf of the foreign COR
respondents, Lord Riddell and Joe Grieg
have issued challenge to American
newspaper golfers. They propose that

SHALL play team of Americans whose
names appear on our accredited list
of correspondents. The time and
course will be announced later. All
who are ready to defend America
against this invasion please notify

 During the year of 1920, we ex- tended our observations. In the l2 months of that year there were 49,- G65 observations with s,236 failures, ar 1e per cent.
 Tn 1921, our observers became even more active and in the first six months of this year, there were 24S,- 9sS observations made, and the fail- ures reached only s,775 or BE per cent.
 The results of our observation tests caused us to have printed more than 4,000.0 900 warning leaflets. showing on one side a boy warning an automobil- ist to stop before he crossed a track.

We started the campaign by placing observers at a few crossings where travel was heavy. When the observer noticed the driver of an automobile approach the crossing and dash over it without taking any precautionary measures to assure himself that there vas no train coming. the license num- tor of the machine was placed on the card. These cards were forwarded to automobile commissioners according to the state which issued the licenses. The commissioners forwarded the cards to the owners of the machines.
 These cards, after reciting the facts Of the observation. warned the drivers or owners of automobiles that their lives and property had been risked unnecessarily. and that a repe- tition might bring disaster. In the great majority, of cases. the recipient of the card realized that he had been careless and a great many even wrote th1fr yappreciation of our efforts to save them from injury.

K. R. PLAN SAFETY
 GRADE CROSSINGS
Important Matter Discussed by
 Corporations at Boston Meeting

Boston. Sept. 30.-Automobile acci- important of all accident questions that confront the railroads of the country at the present time. C. ". Galloway. vice president of the Balti- more and ohio railroad told the steam railroad section of the tenth annual congress of the National Safety Coun- eff here today.
 Tt is now netessary for engineers to consider all construction from the standpoint of safe operation" Mr. Galloway said. Even before the hu man element enters a plant. science has done it's part to make conditions safe and sanitary. This came about, primarily. because of eeoomic neees- sity.
 "I have watched the progress of the safety work on tho Baltimore and Ohio particularly. for many years and it is with no little pride that I point to sorne of the accomplishments for safe ty. Tn 1915 tho casualties among em- pIoyes totaled 9.s59: in 1920 the cas- ualtiea among employees totaled s.941. or a decrease in casualties of 2S per cent. Tn 1915 the gross ton mileage was 32.aa5. 5.7t0,0o0: Tn 1e20 the gross ton mileage was 4O.s67, ,502, 900. or an increase of 26 per cent. That means that in 1920, compa ~-d with 1915, the increase in train mileage. both freight and passenger was 13 per cent and at the same time our casualties de- creased 2S pcrscent.
 with each recurring year the in- crease in tho number of automobiles and tho growing earelessless of the drivers make 1t very important that we devote some extraordinary effort to lessen accidents at grade crossings We arc confronted with tho fact that there are ten million motor vehicles now ln use in the United States.
 'Tt was with alarm that I noticed .he reports of grade crossing acci- dents showing increases month by
New Britain herald., 1921-09-30

paper publicity. One story telling of the d5ngers careless automobilits ex- pose themselves to was sent out and reached 2,60O,0OO readers.
 With genuine and sympathetic CO., operation by all the railroads in some definite plan of campaign, the acci- dents at grade rossing in this country can be cut to less than one per cent. of the ma achines using the crossings.
 Were to ask the average railroad man what they in the week he believ- ed the greater number of accidents happen, he would say Sunday. One hundred thirty-eight accidents hap pened on the following days of the week: Sunday. 15 Monday. 25; Tues day, IS; Wednesday, 27; Thursday, IT Friday, 19 and Saturday 20. It would seem to indicate that the automobile truck is more likely to accident at crossings than the pleasure car, for there are more of them in use on week days than on Sundays.
 Another surprising fact was that nearly all the accidents happen while the weather was clear. This seems to indicate that persons take more chances in clear weather than when it is raining or showing.
 Tho question of automobile acci- dents at grade crossings is, I consider, the most important one the railroads have to deal with, and I cannot inn press upon this body of safety men too strongly the necessity of inaugur- ating a vigorous educational campaign against accidents of this character, both for humane and economic req sons"
