The Government and state ah'l,haf0o'ie
agents are absurdly inadequate in num-
bers. The Government did not nave any
agents in Los Angeles specially assigned
to this work until two months ago, wheh
two were sent from the East. Thelr IN
structions included an order to look into
reports that drugs were being sold at mo
ton picture studios These agents have
been trying to get evidence Of snow par
ties" as the gatherings of drug addicts are
called, in Hollywood and Los Angeles, but
have not yet succeeded. "Snow" is the
modern underworld name for cocaine. Ad-
diets speak Of taking sleigh ride" The
only actress to whose door the Federal
men have traced forbidden drugs is not in
the pictures but in vaudeville. They
thought they had good clew when told of
a railroad conductor who had been invited
to attend SNOW party" at the home OF
the director of a low grade movie company
In Hollywood. The conductor went to the
party in his ordinary Sunday clothes. He
found the other guests and the host in pa
jamas. They tore off his collar and coat,
but when he said that was enough they
let him alone.

without instructions except to get the
facts and without other attitude except
that Of reporter.
In the minds of many persons who have
read Of the "Arbuckle party in San Fran

geles there has been created this picture:
Hollywood the motion picture capital;
community OF dissolute actors and
actresses and others Of the movie industry;
the worst Of them unspeakably vile. the
best suspicionable: colony of unregen
crates and narcotic addicts; given to wild
night parties commonly known as orgies;
heroes OF the screen by day and vicious

to find out. But just before the plunge the
heartening fact comes to mind that a little
while ago the the residents of Beverly
Hills assembled to discuss the laying out
of polo field. Beverly Hills is part Of the
Hollywood district" an exclusive" part,
where Douglas Fairbanks and Mary Pick
ford. Charles Ray, VIII Rogers and many
other stars live in sequestered comfort.
When it was Rogers's turn to speak he
said
Folks, I've sort O. been looking over this
corner Of the world and 1t does look as IL
there are some mighty pretty places for

thing, and that Is there Is no church in

soon as the architect gets his plans drawn
that church will begin to materialize.
There is some truth in the stories Of
wild parties" in and about Hollywood.
Those who have attended them contend
that they have been no worse than similar
things INDUCED in by persons OF the same

notably New York. But of such stupidity

were relatively small number Of men
and women, members Of overlapping
circles OF movie parasites and occa
sionally a real star, The leading figure in
several of them was a comedian, not now
active, who mentally and morally never
has risen above his low beginnings. His
popularity with the public enabled him to
earn a great deal OF money. He spent 1t
as such a man might be expected to spend
1t. He was generous and acquired a rep
utation in his set as a prince Of hosts. A
flock of flatterers gathered around to help
him get rid of his salary. He gave party
after party of the same general type, some
of them reaching their climax in everybody
getting drunk, some going indescribably
further.
An investigator whose word I have no
reason to doubt told me he had definite
evidence Of four OF the more extreme
parties. Three of them were staged in Los
Angeles hotels, the fourth in private resi-
dence in Hollywood. The first one brought
together ten men and ten women. Some Of
them were drug addicts. Liquor was pro.
vided by the host for everybody. and NOR
phine and cocaine, with hypodermic
syringes, for those who craved them.
The second party of this type was
held, the investigator told me, in the Holly
wood home of an actor 1t lacked one bad
feature but included all the others, and in

Missouri Train Honor
Argument for Auto
motive train Control

WASHINGTON, Aug. l6-When
the Interstate Commerce Commission
ordered the leading railroads of the
United States to equip their lines with
automatic train control there was an
immediate protest from chief engin
GERS and officials of many companies
who contended that automatic stops
and other controlling devices were not
yet perfected to the point where their
universal adoption was practical.
The recent horror in Missouri, in
which an engineer and thirty-five 9TH
ers lost lives because of the engineers
failure to see or to heed red light
block signal has renewed the public
applause which followed the far-reach-
ing order of the Interstate Commerce
Commission.
Speaking of this, the inventor of one
system of train control said: "The
claim that the systems of control in
existence have not been perfected is
no argument against their adoption.
The air brake is not yet perfected The
steam engine, which hauls the train,
is not yet perfected The construction
of tracks and cars is not yet perfected.
All these fundamental pieces of equip
ment of railroad trains have been used
and improved as they were used. To
say we must wait for automatic train
control until it is perfected is merely
an euphemistic way of saying don't
let's spend the money until we have
to- It will cost much money to equip
the railroads with good systems of
automatic control So did it cost
money to straighten tracks, build fine
tations, install block systems, and
use heavy steel rails. Whatever it
costs, it is worth it; if the Interstate
Commerce Commission will sticl. by
its order, the railroads must comply.
and the whole country will benefit,
even if the expenditure should :.
which it won't temporarily
decrease railroad dividends"
