An Opportunity for Will HAYS

Soon Will come the Peggy Hop
kins Joyce reaction. The motion
picture star will reach our shores
and then will follow the new burst
Of press agent bunk doubtless to the
effect that these stories of men com,
mtung suicide for love of the be.
wltchlng screen star are all non.
sense and untrue. The public must
oe caught coming and going, and ev.
erY twist and turn of opportunity cap
ltallzed by the publicity factories.
1t is amazing, however, how soon
these cheap seekers of publicity
crawl into their shells when they find
the public resentful of their adver-
used exploits. The Motion Picture
Owners Association has barred Peg
gy Joyce pictures from the screen in
the interest of wholesome entertain
ment, Hence the panic, The free
advertising worked, was a source of
qualification undoubtedly up to the
time this blow fell, but as soon as the
financial bump became known-and
the radio quickly spreads the word
these days-indignant denials of
suicide stories began to fly through
the ether, and seeming dignity took
the place of complacent satisfaction.
thus there is presented to Will
Hays a striking lesson which, if
Needed, will lead to a complete re-
form in motion picture press agent
work. The great industry has been
strangled by its press agents almost
to the point of death. They have
run riot for years, and seemingly
they are still at the same old tricks.
Protest has been made time and
again to the motion picture produc-
ers, but all suggestion has fallen on
deaf ears. The exploiters of both
press and public have been practic-
ally running the motion picture in
dustry without interference, and they
have run it pretty much into the
ground, They have brought about
censorship in many of the states, and
II permitted to continue their bIatent
and Sensuous appeals, they will bring
about a censorious condition that will
be still more harmful. 1t is time
these conscienceless sensationalists
were curbed and a great industry be
permitted to work out its destined
place IN the scheme Of public hap
Dlness and mental growth unhamper-
ed by such destructive influences. If
a few more films that depend upon
1otoney for success are barred from
The screen, and the manufacturers
lace a few millions Of dollars loss,
perhaps they will then wake up to
he fact that their spectacular press
agents are an expensive luxury.
seemingly, nothing but an assault ,
IN the pocketbook will affect them.

not more than twenty-five days. Sec
tion s. Emergency clause Approved
July is, 1918.
Recommendations
We recommend that the following
ire prevention ordinances, copies OF
which are attached to and form a mart
OF this report be enacted and enforced.
viz,-"An ordinance for the prevention
OF hre and providing for inspection"
"An ordinance for regulating cleo
trical wiring and to provide for inspec-
tion of same, (No doubt Heppner lone
and Lexington could employ the same
inspector)"
An ordinance to regulate construc-
ton of fiues and chimneys."
An ordinance requiring cleaning of
chimneys."
AN ordinance to regulate equipment
and operation of motion picture thea
terS"
An ordinance to regulate construc-
ton and operation of public garages"
IAN ordinance to regulate the stor-
age and handling Of explosives"
These regulations Will make for the
safety of the city from fire and should
be enacted without delay.
We recommend that the city improve
the water system by increasing the
size of the principal lateral mains in
the distribution system. sufficiently to
furnish adequate fire protection and re-
pair it otherwise so 1t will be entirely
dependable to handle the high pres
sure.
We recommend that the hydrants be
made to open all the same way, at pre-
sent some open left and some right,
which is very confusing We also re-
commend that the city do not permit
the hydrants to be used for any purpose
other than fire protection.
Conclusion
In conclusion we wish to make ac-
acknowledgement of the assistance and
cooperation of Fire Chief Curran, also |
city attorney Mr.. Nys. We sincerely
hope the people of Heppner will not
soon forget their recent disastrous ex-
perience with fire and not relax their
vigilance in keeping their city as free
as possible from the danger of fire.
We also hope that the recommenda-
tions made herein will receive favor |
able action soon in order that the city |
may not again suffer severe fire loss.
