MOVIES
BY ALBERT APPLE

Eighteen thousand movie theaters
in the United States. with an at
tendance OF fifty million ticket buyers
a week, according to a trade esti-
mate. Which means. the average
person goes to the movies about once
every two weeks.
Edison was right when he said;
Whoever controls the motion picture
industry controls the most powerful
medium Of influence over the people. 80
CENSORS
New York censors eliminated GER
tain parts Of the movie, Good Rid
dance" The producers went to
law" and the court of appeals over
rides the censors. The film will go
into circulation in New York State
about as it was before the censors
cut It.
In this particular film. the censors'
objection was that some of the cpl
sodes portrayed cruelty to animals.
which might incite others to cruelty
1t seems to be all right to portray
cruelty to children in the pictures.
which is a puzzling contradiction.
PRICES
Retail prices in Germany, as the
mark continues going to pieces, rise
third in one week. Cost of living
there now is over II 900 times higher
than it was when the war started IN
1914.
The mark apparently was purpose
ly inflated TO throw sand in the eyes
of indemnity collectors. The Ger
mans dug a pit for their neighbors
and fell in 1t themselves. The boom
erang usually returns to its source,
especially when hurled by an expert
with power.

that the best means Of combating
the highly probable influx of bank

county vigilance committees.
"Thus far" said Mr.. WEIGH, there
have been but two attempted robber-
les Id The state this fall. One was at
Jefferson in August aud the other
at Worthihg on Labor Day, but in
neither case did the robbers get any,

BANKERS ASSOCIATION TAKES
STEPS TO STOP R0BBEKlES

MITCHELL, g.. D., Sept 20:-South
Dakota is rapidly being turned into
an armed camp by the South Dakota
Bankers Association in an effort to
forestall the annual influx OF bank
robbers and bandits. With the COM

corn and the hard, smooth country

Der of bank robberies will be ~inCreas-

the state have united In an effort to
discourage the invasion of the yeggs.
Working through a committee, APP
pointed by the state bankers assecia-
ton, every county in the state is
being organized and the associations
thus formed are employed armed
men,, especially dcputized as deputy
county sheriffs " erever possible, to
protect the interests of their deposi-

as half dozen in each town, are armed
with saw-off shotguns or heavy army

issued to bring in ~highwaymen dead

GOVERNOR GOES TO RAPID CITY
AND SELLS GAS FOR 1G CENTS

Rapid City, S. D., Sept. 24-DeClar-
ing that dealers must reduce" Gov
ernOr w. III. MCMaster anne here to-
day and sold gasoline from a state
highway truck after local filling sta
tons refused to heed his ultimatum
to bring their prices down to Is cents
from 20 cents a gallon.
The governor threatened to sell
state gasoline for Is cents here II his
demand was not complied with.
THE. state has no particular quar-
rel with Rapid City oil dealers" said
the governor in a statement, but in
view of the fact that the state govern
ment fixed the price Of gasoline at
16- cents the gallon, using Mitchell
as the base, and taking freight rates
into consideration for other points,
my plain duty is to insist that Rapid
City dealers comply, otherwise an in
justice would be dCne in cities in the
eastern part of the state.
Dealers in Rapid City are pur-
chasing gasoline for 15.4 cents and
making a profit of 4.6 cents, And
when they claim they cannot retail
gasoline for less than 4.6 cents mar
gin. the statement is ridiculous and
absurd. Dealers must reduce"
Several filling stations later met
the price &c Is cents.

PLATTE PUTTING UP FIGHT TO
GET BRIDGE FROM WHEELER

Pierre, S. D., Sept. 25.-The town
of Platte put up it's last fight to get u
change in the llcation of the Rosebud
Missouri river bridge from Wheeler
To some point close to Platte today
when a delegation of citizens from
that town appeared before the COVER
nor and state highway commission
to seek this change.
1t has been reported to the high
way commission that Platte had a
crew of men making soundings OF the
river at Mulehead, buS with what re-
suits cannot be learned. However,
Bridge Engineer Kirkham states that
this crossing was thoroughly inves-
tigated and it was found a bridge
there would be much longer than at
Wheeler and it would be necessary
to go 40 feet and more below the bed
of the river to reach a foundation
for piers.
The Platte delegation included
Enoch Norbeck, brother of United
States Senator Peter Norbeck. There
was also a delegation from Lake An
des present seeking to retain the To-
cation at Wheeler.
While results Of the meeting are
not yet made public il is indicated
that there is NO chance OF a change
being made in the location and that
the bridge will be built at Wheeler.
