were acting largely on our informa-
tion. We were fully cognizant of the
operations and had set Saturday night
for our raid. The still was operated
by oil. and $50 gallons of kerosene had
been ordered from the local Standard
Oil station. If the federal officers had
just held off we would have made our

MOVY MAN URGES
CAREFUL JUDGMENT

| Melvin G. Winstock, of the Metro
Pictures Corporation, who Tuesday ad-
dressed members of the Tuesday Lunch
club at the Columbia Gorge hotel,
urged that citizens not allow what he
characterized the glaring abuse and
misuse of opportunities of a few in the
motion picture industry to mould their
opinion and develop the trend of their
judgment on the entire industry. Mr..
Winstock decried the activities of an
element whom he styled as self-elected
reformers and who, he declared, have
adopted the indoor sport of setting the
crooked nose of the old worlI straight.
The element. he declared. rendered
zealots by prejudice. are inangurating
| vexatious laws.
MIR. Winstock stated that the motion
picture industry, now declared the
fourth largest business enterprise of
the country, selected ex-Postmaster
General viii Hays as a Moses to lead
the way out of the wilderness because
of his personality, his national promi
nence and inherent fairness and hon.
esty.
The motion picture man prefaced his
address with unstinted praise of Presi-
dent Harding for his accomplishment
in the disarmament conference. which.
he declared, he believes to have set in
motion new era of peaceful relations
between the people of all nations.
Mr.. Winstock cited that the Paris
peace conference was in session day
after day without thought or guidance
of Divine Being. He cited that the |
Washington conference for the limita- |
tion of armamaments was opened with |
a prayer of an inspired preacher, whose |
words in "a hours sounded around the |
world. Mr.. Winstock expressed the |
belief that Borah, johnson and La Fol-
lette would go down to political obliv.
ion for their bigoted attacks on the ae-
complishments at the conference in
Washington.
The meeting under ehairmanship of
Geo. II. McMullin, was characterized
by violin solos by Walter Wells, who
was accompanied by Mrs. A. S. Kol-
stad. The two were encored repeated
y. Next weeks lunch club meeting
will be held at the Hotel Oregon with
