State Commission Presents
Report of Five Months
Film Regulation.
By the Associated Press,

tne Associated freS6.
ALBANY, N. Y, January 17.-"Great
| results" have been accomplished by
the New York state motion picture
commission in purging the screen
Of Objectionable films. Gov. Miller was
told when the commission filed with
him a report covering its first five
months activities, ending December
81 last.
THE producers themselves recog-
| nize the fact that a very substantial
improvement in the character OF the
/ films is already apparent" the report
said, but those opposed to censor
ship or regulation attribute this
change to their own efforts rather
than to the work Of the commission
However If the statute is to be
| made wholly effective, system OF
| inspection must be provided, the
The commission approved, without
elimination, ITO films and in others
| made 754 eliminations. Five films
| We're condemned
One Appeal Made Falls.
Only one appeal from the commits
sion's decisions was carried into
court, and in this instance the COM
mission won.
'.The motion picture" the report
| asserted, does more to influence the
lives of people than newspapers,
books and magazines: Since organi-
cation of the commission there has
been material Improvement in films
presented for examination and license.
Producers are satisfied that clean and
wholesome pictures bring the largest
| financial return and. while there are
| few producers who evidently de-
sire to cater to the lower instincts
of the human race and present un-
clean, immoral and salacious films,
| this number is in the minority"
Regret Use Of Crime.
The report expressed regret that
| many Of the producers OF films seem
| to deem it necessary to incorporate
| in films in such marked degree vices
Of the human race and also to de-
pict violations of law in the commits
sion of various crimes.
The commission also condemned
the practice of some producers In
making pictures in which are fea-
| tured persons whose only claim to
| notoriety or distinction is their con-
nection with some scandal or crime,

BIG BUILDING BOOM
IN SOUTHERN STATES
Projects Started on Scale
NeUer knoUn Before.

A recent survey by G. l.. Miller &.
Co. of building in sixteen southern
States during the first half OF 1922
shows that the value OF contracts
awarded and permits issued amounted
to nearly $3.50, 100000. which shows a
gain over the first six months of 1921
of APT per cent. BY the end OF the
year the amount is expected to reach
nearly half a billion dollars.
One of the notable features Of the
survey is the fact that from Maryland
to Texas the bulk of the structures
now being erected are towering office
buildings of fireproof construction and
hotels and apartment houses ranging
in value from $4,000 to 100000 and
5000 00O Great department stores.
schools, theaters and churches have
been projected on scale never be-
fore known in the South.
Another phase of the situation is ihe
increase in the number of textile mNls
which have been working double time
recently on account of the labor dis
turbances in New England. Several
new corporations have been formed
notably at Chattanooga, where many
millions in investments are to be made
next fall.
Projected expansion In the Birmine-
ham steel district of Alabama is also
worthy of notice. The Tennessee Goa
and Iron Company now has in process
additions and improvements TO cost
over five millions; new Industrial
village is being built at Leeds; two new
mills are being built by other com
panies and at Bessemer projects to be
announced before the end of the year
will represent an investment of $751;

Special Dispatch to THE New YORK HERALD.
ATLANTIC CITY, Sept. 10.-The plan
for national union of printing trades
TO be merged into the International
Typograp hical Union has failed. John
MCFARLAND. president of the Typo
graphical Union, made public to-day
his report of the sixty seventh annual
convention of the union, which will
open tomorrow in the Ambassador
Hotel. disappearing the one union
scheme.
Not only is the proposal rejected
by some Of the larger associations of
labor in the printing industry. but
it is denounced as unsound and inn
practical. While the radical faction
in the convention here is expected to
make fight to bring about the one
big union, its rejection by Big Six of
New York is regarded as certain.
Only the International Brotherhood
OF Bookbinders has indorsed the
project, the MCFARLAND report states.
The International Stereotypers and
Electrotypers Unions declined to join
an industrial union but favored close
cooperation between the various
trades.
Refusal of the International Printing
Freshmen and Assistants Union OF North
America and the International Photo
Engravers Union to entertain the big
union scheme blocked the movement.
Radicals in the typographical organi-
ut the last convention in Quebec. The
scheme was to get the Ave printing
unions into one combination with tv,ai
membership of $4,000 and the unions
then would have been in a position to
deal collectively with employers.
"ImpractIcaI and Nnsound."
In letters accompanying the McPar-
land report George l.. Berry, president
of the Printing Pressmen Union, and
Matthew Vol. president of the Photo
Engravers Union, declared 1t was not
true they had favored any united fedora
ton making possible a practical often
sive and defensive alliance in the inter-
est of the workers of America.
THE proposal of an amalgamaton is
impractical and unsound," stated the let
ters This was tried and failed. there
being at one time but one printing
trades union--the Typographical Union.
We are not willing to give consideration
Of the proposition to return to a condi-
ton that 20 every student of industry
proved an unqualified failure"
Walter Reddick, president OF the
Bookbinders Union, in his letter to Mr..
Mcfarland said:
THE printing trades as well as all
organized labor will form eventually into
industrial groups not as a matter of
choice but because of necessity"
Charles A Sumner. secretary-treas-
urer of the stereotypers and electro
typers. said:
I'VE are opposed to losing our identity
as an international union or 20 surren-
dering our autonomy. control or juris-
diction. This organization always has
favored and will continue to favor a
closer cooperation or working agreement
among the international printing trade
unions that leaves to each craft its indie
pendence OF action"
