4 CELLULOID PRESIDENT

Those senator's who are try to frighten the
people into believing that all ture elections will
be controlled by a bunch of n vie producers. act
ing under the expert advice Of VIII Hays are not
likely 20 get far
1t Is placing rather low valuation upon the in
telligence OF voters TO believe that they will be
swayed in their judgment by the Pickering ceIlulod
The importance Of the movies is not to be I'M
derrated for their very definite objects of amuse-
ment and education. But it will require a genius
to turn It to purposes of propaganda
How many pictures of the president with his fav-
orte dos, his wife in her newest hat would it
require to turn single vote?
How many votes in the last election were changed
by the of that really unusual film that showed
the candidate with his shirt sleeves rolled up
making up a newspaper form?
Was any workingman fooled into the belief that
this was the usual occupation Of the candidateL
would working man have selected him as
president because that was the fact had it bappen-
ed be true?
Throwing the face Of a man upon the screen
Is interesting. but the people will always ask what
that man stands for and what ne intends to do with
power, before they give him power
The scare, Of course, comes from the environment
Of Will HAYS TO reorsanize the movies The public
will watch for effects and how far he has anv
influence to induce the producers TO eliminate OBJ
jectionable features from pictures Hays SAYS that
is his job. If II is he will have little time IN sa

FOOLISH NOSTRUM.

Doctors often disagree. it is not 70 be wondered

those who pose physicians the common good
advance very foolish ideas
The latest nonsensicaI presumption for curing
busness depression comes from a former governor
Of Kansas who solemnIy tells the credit men Of the
country:
Lock up every motor car in the country for the
next II months and you will have good times"
He presents hguT~s show that enormous
spent for gasoline and oils. more money for
repairs for automobiles and argues that if this
money saved" the whole financial depression
would disappear.
He might also advise that if the public should
stop eating for the next u months the national
debt could be wiped
He might have gone further and advised all peo-
pie stop paying for II months declare
strike against street car fares or railway trips
and the money would sufficient TO again start

II was former governor. OF course. who made
this statement and may safely stated without
looking up the record that he was a governor in
the days Of the horsecar and the old fashioned
buggy and that his mind stopped when he ended
his brief period OF glory.
II every automobile was locked up for the next
II months. it may be safely predicted that the
country would be in a condition OF near-reseu tuition
If not of financial panic This official does not
realize that the entire structure OF life has been
changed and accommodated the common use
Of the auto and that TO wipe out this modern con-
venience and necessity would throw the whole sys-
TEN out OF balance
The automobile is necessary business and in
dustry as at present organized and has become a
necessity to many in the business OF living
II is the product OF a demand for greater op-
pOrtunity and brings with those opportunities
not only for pleasure convenience but for actual
work
Any device that time increases the total
production of wealth and the general fund Of happ-
ness
The automobile has been the biggest time-saver
since the invention Of the steam engine or the tele-
graph
It has moved the farmer hours nearer TO his
market 1t has made neghbors Of communities that
were formerly strangers. 1t has increased the life
rover of all who it.
The nation is in need of intelligent saving It Is in
need of more and better work. It in need OF
thrift that excludes waste and extravaganza It is
not driven to the point or committing commercial
suicide by wipng one Of it's most useful aids
to business.
A French queen once advised her starving sub
jects who cried for bread to cake She lost her
head. The advice to lock up automobiles appar-
emily comes from man who first lost his head
before attempting to impart similar wisdom"
