FILM MEN HAIL
HAYS DECISION
WITH DELIGHT
Practical Step in Economic
Reconstruction of In
dustry, They Say.

LOS ANGELES, Jan. 1S-"The advent
Of VIII H. Hays into the motion picture
industry at this time is a practical step
in an economic reconstruction now neces-
STATED in the picture business"
Mack Sonnet, comedy king, thus
summed up the general attitude Of the
worlds motion picture center today on
the announcement that the Postmaster
General Of the United States had accepted
a 100000 a year job to put the picture
game back on two feet"
A blow at strict unreasonable censor
ship was seen by Albert S. Levine, IA
nous scenario writer, speaking for the
Screen Writers Guild
THE youth Of the motion picture in
dustry has given birth to considerable
internecine jealousy and strife which has
made the selection Of 4 leader from within
the ranks OF the industry utterly i'm
possible" said Levine.
"A leader has been found in Mr.. Hays
to the everlasting benefit of the industry
and the equal advantage of the American
people"
Jesse L. Lasky, executive OF the Famous
Players -Lasky corporation, the largest
film organization in the world, unquau-
hedly branded the movement which
seated Hays in the throne Of Glmdom as
the biggest forward step for the industry
that could be effected.

u. S. TO AID IN
EUROPEAN JOB
Chancellor Says America Must
Help if Plan Is to
Succeed.
FEARS WORLD CRASH

BERLIN, Jan. 18-Germany wants the
United States to interest herself in Euro
pean affairs, particularly economic recon
struction. This is the attitude Of the
German government as revealed by Chan
cellor Wirth in an address to the con-
vention of the Centrum (Catholic) party.
The Chancellor decrted tho allied
'Iemon squeezing" policy. His plea for
American participation in European al
fairs was cOuched in the following Ian
guage:
The re-establishing Of inter European
relations cannot be achieved unless the
United States is again disposed to take
an interest in European affairs. tEYen
America cannot reconstruct herself at
home if the policy is continued of making
one people alone answerable for all war
damages
DR.. Wirth expressed pride in his own
policy of "fulfllment''- q policy by
which he pledged Germany to carry out
all the conditions imposed upon her by
the allies.
ut has been a year Of honest endeavor
on our part" continued the Chancellor.
we shall continue to travel the same
road. A zigzag course would be death to
all policy"
The chancellor defed his political
enemies.

it will be in open battle" said DR.. With.

Germany will gather strength. 1t is
her Christian, moral duty never sit
idle in hours of the fatherland's danger.
Therefore, we repudiate the policy Of

A Correction

Under Monarch headline of last
Tuesday the Daily Union Times car
ried an article concerning the drown
ing of Douglas Johns in Hog Foot
pond last Sunday. Mr.. George Pruett
was the man finding the dead body in
a watery grave about Is or 16 feet
from the level water above. At this
time Mr.. John Moore came forward
and had already dived several times
for the dead body, but without sue
cess. Here Mr.. Moore, the hero of
last Sundays tragedy, went down,
down and then still down and brought
Mr.. Johns body to the bank. In div
ing into the deep muddy water Mr..
Moore risked his own life, for this
pond is full of cross ties and logs, and
being an eye witness to this sad
scene, / feel / am due Mr.. Moore and
his friends an apology for the omis-
sion of his name; and as he is a per-
sonal friend of the writer and | be-
lieve a friend to everybody, feel
certain he will accept this correction
in the good spirit in which it is writ
tn. Mr.. Moore proved himself true
soldier and it was for that brotherly
love he had for that broken-hearted
father a right-thinking heart also in
his own body that prompted him to
make this great sacrifice, and I cor
rect it with pleasure.
Thanking you, Mr.. Editor, for this
space, and asking you to be kind
