Women Watch
Hays Entrance
as Movie King
Leader of Indiana Ind0rSers
Sees Possibilities for
Good.
By JULIA O. HENDERSON.

By JULIA @. HENDERSON.
Women of Indiana who have carried on
the fight for cleaner and better moving
pictures are watching with interest VIII
Hays entrance into the movie industry.
Particular attention is being given to the
effect Mr.. Hays connection with picture
corporations will have upon the pro-
ponents of censorship.
A board of censorship was strongly ad-
vocated al the last Indiana General As
sembly but was finally defeated in the
closing hours. There remained, however.
an active State organization, the Indiana
IndorseIs Of Photoplays, as a check upon
the showing of films that might be harm
full to the youthful patrons Of the picture
shows.
POSSIBILITIES
FOR GOOD SEEN.
Mrs. David Ross Of Indianapolis, for
mer president of this organization, sees
in the connection Of Mr.. Hays with the
moving picture industry great possibili-
ties for good Censorship viii be a dead
issue, Mrs. Ross believes. If Mr.. Hays
ideas are put into execution. His OBJ

standard Of motion picture production.
ana, second, to develop to the highest
possible degree the spiritual, moral and
educational value Of the industry.
Censorship is now restricted to New
York, Kansas, Ohio, Maryland and Penn
sylvania, Mrs. Ross points out. She
believes that there is little chance of
censor boards being established In other
States once Mr.. Hays plan is firmly
stablished.
BELIEVES CENSORSHIP
NEED To CONTINUE.
Mrs. Edward Franklin White, deputy
attorney general OF Indiana, one OF the
active supporters the censorship measure
when It was presented to the Legisla-
ture, also expresses hope that the re-
dring postmaster general will exer. a
wholesome influence upon the moving
picture industry.
Mrs. White, however, is not entirely
sure that the necessity for censorship
will be entirely obviated and declares
that If the producers bring out clean
pictures they have nothing to fear from
a censor board.
The pioneers IN the industry had the
right idea and gave TO the public what
was most needed and desired. It re-
mained for the later producers to so
commercialiEe the industry as to bring
undesirable pictures to the force and By
so doing they brought about a growing
discomfort which resulted in the Hobbies
which were held IN various State Lsgis-
latures for and against censorship.
1t is hoped that the entrance OF Mr..
Hays into the industry will revolution
i2e this popular diversion OF the Ameri-
can people. Seeing as he does his op-
portunity for service, It Is believed that
he will bring to the movement all tha
energy and ambition that he has brought
to other ventures in which he has been
engaged.
