A tariff on German motion pictures

John @. Tilson, of the Ways and Means
Committee of the House of Repre-
sentatives, according to the report of
John Emerson, president of the Actors
Equity, at the annual meeting of the
organization yesterday at Hotel Astor.
Mr.. Emerson said the Congressional
comittee was in favor of imposing a
tariff, based on the American value of
the films, as means of protection to
the American industry.
"The pnotoplay Passion" he said,
Cost only 100000 marks, or $4,000
of our money, in Germany Mr.. Grif-
fifth told me himself that the same play
could not be produced in this country
for less than S500,000. Deception
would have cost 100000 here. At this
rate the American industry will be
star or two and film a play in Ger
many, throwing three or four hundred
thousand actors and actresses out of
business in this country"
The annual meeting passed without
an echo of the disturbance last year.

Is a thin veil. Beside it is message
from Audrey Munson, queen Of the
artists studios" Il says that in giving
this story to the screen she has barred
her heart and soul.
No one, after seeing the picture, can
honestly say that Miss Munson has
concealed anything.
The play deals with the distressing
tragedies of models who lack the moral
balance to safeguard themselves from
the intimate atmosphere Of the studios.
1t starts with a scenic effect showing
the village at night as seen through
Washington Arch This is pretty.
The Spirit of the Arch, who at other
times is Henry Duggan, then comes
out in cowl and tells the audience
about the soulful side of earnest pos.
ing. Every now and then the picture
is stopped and he steps out and com
ments on it. During the projection,
too, he gives advice to the weakening
models as they are about to fall. "No,
MOI" he says in a deep voice when
lrma Harrison, who takes the part of
the prey, knocks at the door of the
Diletantte's trick studio.
Three screens are used in the pro-
lection, two small screens on each side
of the main one being used for the
typaths of the story and usually ac-
companied for o defamation by man
in the cowl.
Another innovation is the stopping
of the picture at certain points to
show the actors in person. Like most
act so we'll in spoken part as for
the camera.
1t does not take Miss Munson long
to get into condition closely re-
sembling that Of September Morn Just
before she found that the water was
cold. The picture does not make use
of the thin veil used in the poster.
Holmes E. Herbert plays the part Of
the noble sculptor. Hedda Hooper is
his wife. The Diletante, who is the
object lesson, is Ward Crane. Tom
Burroughs, partly hidden by bushy
white beard takes the character Of
the sage.
The piece is directed by Robert z.
Leonard and produced by Perry Plays,
Inc. The photography is good.

PARIS, June 3.-The dictators Of

brilliantly multicolored feather shoes
The shoes are completely covered with
feathers of tropical birds which are
pasted on a fabric base. Dainty hats,
similarly made, are worn to match, and
to be fully equipped milady also has a
daring back comb with more feathering.
The leading style authorities also are
campaigning to revive the use of the

corset is threatened with extinction in

resulting, they point out, and this makes
the fitting Of chic gowns well-nigh i'm

CAPITAL AND EXPERIENCE

Of course you have heard the story
about the two fellows who formed a
partnership, one of them agreeing to
furnish the experience, while the other
was to furnish the capital? Well, as
time passed by, the fellow who fur
nished the capital was getting a whole
lot of experience, while the other fell
low was in some way getting a firm
hold on the capital, so when two years
had passed by, things had been switch
ed around and the fellow who had
experience to start with, had the cap
ital by now, and the other man had
the experience.
In the newspaper game we have
had lot of experience; you have cap
ital-and all we want to do is to trade
whole lot of our experience for just
small amount of your capital. We
don't even want your capital. We
just want a small per cent of your
profits, which will make more profits
for you, SO, eventually, you will not
only have more capital, but we will
also have more capital, and Wen just
continue spending a part of our mon
ey with each other, building up each
others business to point that will
land us all on the island of experience
with our capital secure.
What say?

ADVERTISING IS
NOT NECESSARY

A merchant told Times reporter
the other day that there was no bust
ness anyway, so why should he adver-
tise? And that reminds US of the hen
who quit scratching because there was
scarcity of worms. 1t seemed to be
q bad year for worms; the hen didn't
see any of the wriggling varmints
trying to make themselves an honest
meal for a hungry chicken, and the
hen soon began to have the appear
ance of a rundown fowl.
The owner noticed the run down APP
pesrance, caught the hen. killed her
and threw the carcass to the "hawgs"
and the moral is this: "Don't let
your business get that rundown APP
pearance or some Of -our best custo-
mers might get it into their heads
that you are ready for the financial
graveyard, and pass you up like
pay-car passes a tramp"

Their petticoats are so short that

money enough in it to pay fo' robbing
it. Outside of that, the banks are

i report on the subject Of styles in
blouses, except that with the advance
of summer the proportion of white
blouses has grown larger and the pub
lie has developed taste for those

naturally in demand In midsummer,
but not to the exclusion of vivid colors
by any means. Washable, tailored, cot
