 Never before in the history of pie ture making at the Paramount Long Island studio, where, among others, such artistic successes as Sentiment al Tommy" "Peter Ibbetson" and "Java Head" have been filmed, has such an imposing list of properties been used in a picture, according to David Sarecky, head. of the studio re- ceiving department
 "Our hearts were in our mouths constantly while handling all of this costly material" said the chief prop erty man at the studio. "The rare paintings, tapestries, rugs and furni- ture had to be handled with the ut most care so they could be returned to the dealers from whom they were rented in first class shape. Other wise the Famous Players-Lasky. cor poration would have had added ex- pense that would make this picture cost more money than any other pie ture ever filmed"
 Bebe Daniels and Nita Naldi have the featured roles, and David Powell is leading man. The cast generally IS high grade. The picture is said to be one of the most magnificent produced this. season.

No Fake Stuff Used in Filming of
 The Glimpses of the Moon"

Tapestries, antique furniture, rare paintings and other properties used to give Allan Dwan's Paramount perturbation of Edith Wharton's $ novel, "The Glimpses of the Moon" lavish and costly background were valued at $712,o5o. All of New York's antique shops and art stores were searched for the materials used in making the Vanderlyn palace and AL tringham villa, homes of the idle rich, so that they might appear just as they were described by Mrs. Wharton in her novel.
 Tn producing the screen version of "The Glimpses of the Moon," which will be on view at the Rialto Theatre all next week, MT. Dwah carried reality to the last degree. Everything seen on the screen in this picture is real. There is no fake jewelry, no cheap hangings, and no ordinary oil paintings.

FREE PLAY OF FORCES.

The International Trade Unions, com prising the membership of the American Federation of Labor are founded on no preconceived or prescribed method or form of organization. The method and form of organization is largely matter of development. The free play of economic forces and industrial tenden- cies largely influences the form and method of organization. Some of the in strictly trade or craft lines, while others embrace, to a greater or lesser degree, all wage earners within given industry, regardless of trade or craft lines.
 The principal requirement., contained in the articles of federation, or the con- stitution of the American Federation of Labor, IS that no International Union shall inter fere with, transgress upon or overlap the recognized trade or calling of another International Union. No two International Trade Unions are permitted to embrace in their membership workers engaged in the same character of work or calling.
 Difficulties present themselves at times in clearly defining trades and industries. Likewise conflicts arise between different concepts of trade lines and branches of trades within industries. Then, too, the constant changes taking place in the methods, tools processes and materials for production develop contentious Singly or combined these developments make necessary from time to time the revision of the lines of demarcation of trades and workers included within given industry. By the requirement contained in the articles of federation referred to, the American Federation of Labor is called on to adjust or to deter mine conflicting claims of jurisdiction as they arise. Considerable difficulties are experenced at times in the adjusting of these conflicting claims.

These federated trade unions are designated International" organiza- tions because they include in membership wage earners of the United States, Canada and Mexico. Insofar as economic and industrial activities are concerned they are not influenced by na- tional considerations. Neither are they influenced by racial or religious consid- erations. These international trade unions are in themselves. complete or ganizations and autonomous in character. There is vested in the American Fedora ton of Labor only such power and au- thority as these federated International Unions have delegated or may delegate to the American Federation of Labor.

The Connecticut labor news., 1923-04-06
A STRIKING CHARACTERISTIC

Another peculiar characteristic of this federation of international trade unions IS the varying numerical strength of the several federated unions. At the con- vention in June of 1922, the entire vot- ing strength of the federation was 31,- 4o5. This voting strength embraced the membership of o5 federated international unions of which 16,OO3 votes, balance of power, were confined to nine federated International Unions If the American Federation of Labor had the power to compel obedience to its directions and decisions a very small minority of the larger international Unions could easily dominate and control the whole of the axairs of the American Federation of Labor. What may therefore appear as fundamental weakness in organization Is i'll fact the very element of life, strength and solidarity of the federation.
 Because of the absence of power to enforce. its decisions. the American Federation of Labor must of necessity proceed carefully, cautiously and inte11i- gently. It can advance only in such way and to such a degree as will com mand constantly the respect and adher- ence to its membership by the federated International Unions. It is therefore badly that cannot be easily swayed by pas sion or prejudice. On the contrary 1t Is compelled to move along firm and sound channels that have been we'll charted by experience and research

federated unions,

federated unions.
 While it IS said that the American Federation of Labor largely resembles the United States government in its form and principle of organization, it's dis tinguishing difference lies the fact that the American Federation of Labor has no police power to enforce it's decision or to retain the membership of federated unions by other than moral influence. Its sole power and influence rests upon the recognition and response to the maxim, United we stand; divided we fall"
The Connecticut labor news., 1923-04-06
GREAT MORAL STRENGTH.

While the International Unions have delegated this authority to the American Federation of Labor, the Ameriran Fed eration of Labor is without power to enforce its decision other than to suspend or revoke the charter of an affiliated re- ca1citrant International Union. This can only be done by two-thirds vote of the convention.
 Rehabilitation with the American Federation of Labor does not involve the enforcement of any penalty or measure of discipline. International Unions may associate or dissociate from the Ameri- can Federation of Labor at will. The American Federation of Labor is purely a voluntary federation. Its great strength is dependent entirely upon its fair and just dealing toward all

Louisville, Ky. March 16.-Picture a coterie of eighteenth century gen. tlemen. fired with the spirit of the creator and pioneer, intently boring over graphically illuminated chart of "the ideal city of the world" and vusualizing OCT their mugs Of ale the day when the virgin hilltops of that frontier region of tho New World called Kentucky--beyond the ragged est edge of the lands assimilated by those recalcitrant colonists = should rise this wonder city-"Lystra!"
 "The chief city of Kentucky, was the designation put to Lystra on a London map of 1794. But Lystra never materialized.
 Otis M. Mather, of Hodgenville. Ky, student of early Kentucky history, tells of the intended metropolis.
 "The primeval forest still waves over the spot" Mir Mather declared. "The site is located in the extreme eastern part of La Rue county, Ken lucky, and the only thing that marks it is the postoffice and general store of Gleanings a little village several miles away"
 Muldraugh Hill, landmark in the vicinity, was to be the approximate center of the city and is still there. Lystra was to cover 15,000 square acres, divided into 25 blocks, each block with its individual park. Streets were to be 100 feet wide and vision ary structures and Improvements were located and planned--on a map in London.
 But the Englishman never came to Kentucky. In the days that have elapsed since, however, the Bluegrass country to the east of Lystra's pro- posed location has been transformed into a prosperous region known as one of the richest communities in the "New World

HORNS NOT BEST
Dr. A. l.. Foley Gives Out Some In- teresting Information Relative to Telephones and Monographs.

Bloomington, Ind, March 16. - Horns used on telephones and phono- graphs are not of the most efficient shape for the condensing of sound, in the opinion of Dr. A. L. Foley, head of the department of physics and a research professor at Indiana univer- sity.
 Dr. Foley said he discusses with the popular theory that sound comes through horns as water goes through funnel. He declares that most of the energy backs out of horns in stead of being condensed at the small end.
 The Indiana university scientist has designed several new types of horns in accordance with his theory.

In Demand for Modification
of Act.
By U.ited Meas

ALBANY. n. Y. Jan. 4.-From a
man who is regarded as one OF the
outstanding Democratic presidential
possibilities for 1924, a joint session
Of the New York Legislature and a
large gathering of spectators heard on
Wednesday a most outspoken denun-
citation of national prohibition, as now
provided. The speaker was Alfred Z.
Smith, newly installed as Governor Of
New York by virtue of the landslide
which carried him into office last fall
after a campaign based in d measure
on the dry issue.
Emphasizing his lack Of sympathy
with attempts to control public morals
by restrictive laws, the returning Gov
ernor also asked for the repeal of the
present State law providing for cen
sorship of motion pictures by a
board of censors.
Smith broke a precedent in deliver
ing his opening message TO the Legs
lature in person from the speakers
liable as Woodrow Wilson did in ad-
pressing Congress to the establishment
sof the nations just after he became
President.
The Governor recommended that the

Legislature pass a resolution at the
earliest possible moment requesting
that Congress Immediately amend the
Volstead act to permit light wines and
beer. He further recommended that
New York State become the pioneer
in a movement in Congress to amend
the national constitution so that hence
forth the people and not the legisla-
lures shall have the power to ratify
or reject constitutional amendments.
