No doubt the movies need all the respectabilitY that the name of Will Hayes can bring to them, and no doubt Will Hayes will need all of his responsibility to keep what he has in the business he has undertaken. But if he can pull the movies out of the mud, if he can make them American, if he cal drive out the men who are probably paying in men of character and cleanliness, he will have per- formed big job, as big as the reformation of the postal service. MT. Hayes may have seen . great opportunity. It is there. But the perils are many. Let us hope that MT. Hays pulls the movies out of the slime instead of letting them pull him in.

RAILROAD STRIKE WANING.

Railroads throughout the country are
making rapid progress in replacing the
striking shopmen, according to reliable
reports. In the opinion of executives, the
peace talk and negotiations in recent
weeks retarded recruiting, for there has
been marked improvement in that respect
since the conferences were ended. In
abatement issued this week, L. F. Loree,
chairman of the Eastern Presidents Con
ference. gave figures showing heavy in
crease lately in shop forces OF eastern
railroads. About 40, 600 additional men,
he said, will be required to bring the force
nm to the full roster of July l, and he pre-
dicted that in four or five weeks all the
places will be filled, even if the men now
IN strike do not seek reemployment- Last
week. he pointed out, the railroads of the
country moved all the coal offered, about
81 per cent OF q normal production, and
about 10 per cent. more traffic than IN the
corresponding week in July. They had
4.Ql0 locomotives in good order stored
ready for service, he added, and los, 86O
surp'us freight cars on hand in good con-
dition. the situation in the east being better
than the average. tits now estimated that
SEQ, 900 shopmen are now employed Dy an
the railroads, and that they are snort only
between rs, 600 and 100, 600 to bring their
working shop forces up to normal Inc
Pennsylvania system has announced that
it intends not only to fill the places OF all
strikers, but to increase its repair snop
forces by 10, 600 men this fall. Railroad
managers regard the strike as broken.
