PITTSBURG, Pa.-Recent indica-

Pennsylvania is being viewed more
favorably throughout the entire state.
Questionnaires have been sent to
newspapers in the state asking their
attitude on the Khan organization, the
object of which is to compile a list of
publications not unalterably opposed
to the Khan.
Out of the scores of answers re-
ceived, only two, the Johnstown Demo-
crat and the Franklin Herald,
signified policy of not considering
any Klan articles sent from the state
office.
The remainder of the answers re-
ceived by the state office show that
editors are willing to devote space to
articles proportionate to their news

sQuELcHlNG MOVING PICTURES

The moving picture industry got a
staggering blow last Tuesday at
Brookline, Mass, when on a vote over
moving pictures the municipality de-
cided to have no movies for the fu-
ture The result was 5,634 against,
1859 favoring.
The whole thing of this incident is
that the moving picture industry has
not made those advances that were
predicted for it years ago. From an
artistic standpoint there has undoubt-
edly been progress in the cinemate-
graph. Bus as whole the morally
unsound pictures that have flooded
the world have been easily apparent.
Perhaps the intention of the produc-
ers has not really meant to be as rad
ical as this Brooklne vote would in
dicate. but the fact remains that with
all of the effort to uplift the movie in
dustry ii has not uplifted itself. VIII
Hayes is paid S150.000 year to re-
form the industry, but he has done
little that is visible in this direction.
On the contrary, there has come into
play form of outlawry in making
pictures that has made an unpleasant
reflection. Right here at home in
nearby towns communities have been
outraged by the presentation of posi-
lively vile pictures-pictures Of so
called artistic excellence, but which
were positively repugnant to decency.
A recent exhibition of this kind re-
suited in the finding of true bills by a
grand jury against dozen or more
men and women who had openly yio-
lated and defed the law. If more
communities would follow the Brook.
line example perhaps it would have a
salutary effect upon the industry OF
making pictures. There is evident
room for improvement. which has
been promised, but which has so far
not materialized. Let us hope that
the producers will see a little more
light now than they have heretofore
shown.
