at ought to be an unusual movie"
Borzage told me. "No one else in the
business thought it would do for a pic
ture."
The central figure in "Terwilliger"
is an old man who tends a park. He
sits down to sum up his life and visions
himself Mt the gates of heaven. He
believes that il he can tell st. Peter
sad story that will make him cry he
may be able to sneak into heaven while
st. Peter is wiping his eyes. He tells
ST.. Peter of his experiences in tending
the park and st. Peter cries and the old
man gets into heaven.
That is only a sketchy outline Of the
story, but it is sufficient to show that
Borzage has gotten off the beaten path.
More directors should be encouraged to
essay the novel and the extraordinary
in picture stories. Borzage's remark
about "Terwilliger" being an unusual
movie because no one else in the bust
ness thought it could be made into a
successful picture Is a sad commentary
on the mediocrity and similarity of
films.
Borzage's name is probably more gen
orally Inexperienced than any other
in the film business. The proper pro.
nounciation is "Bor-zay-gee." The g"
is hard.

Almost lost to public sight are some
$50. 100000 to SS0.000.000 in claims
which the government is pushing
against the railroads as a result of
government operation years ago. If
these are partly successful in the
hands of the Interstate Commerce
Commission and the Railroad Adj
minfstration. they will hit the stake ii

But one OF the most flexible and
perhaps hopeful places to turn is the
expenditures of the departments

Are Over Appropriations.
IT is cold hard fact that the de-
partments during the early part of
this fiscal year spent more heavily
out of their appropriations than they
can expect to continue and stay with
in the limit. They have promised to
cut down; they will have to cut down
priations. But if the deficit stake is
to be hit by the departments they
will have to take an extra slice at
their expenditure. Now the question
is, How much sicing will the depart
ments stand?
There is d reserve kept by the de-
Dartments, started out at about S92-
100000. but which has been allowed
TO lag a bit below that figure 1t
belongs to the departments and at
the end of the year must either be
spent or turned back to the Treasury
What the budget officials will try to
accomplish is an increase of that s92.-
100000 reserve instead of a spending
of it.
Sales May Boost Funds.
Besides all this. there is some hope
that the sale of surplus property may
bring in a little additional cash. This

Then there is a chance that Great

Crop Conditions Better
Substantial improvement in state
crop conditions during July is indi-
Gated in the monthly bulletin issued
by the state department of agricul-
ture. This is true particularly of
crops not matured to any great ex-
tent before the first week of July.
Although no general rain fell until
late in the month, local showers re-
,lieved the serious drought situation,
except in the northern counties,
where crops suffered until about the
middle Of the month.
AS previously indicated, the early
crop of white potatoes Is very poor,
due to the prolonged dry weather
during the growing season. Some
digging has taken place, but many
growers have been awaiting better
prices. The condition of the crop is
placed at 50 per cent of normal, indi-
eating a yield of 76 bushels an acre,
Or 6.0S0,000 bushels as compared
with 11,073,0O0 bushels last year.
The sweet potato estimate is 2,140, 900
bushels as compared with $500, 900
last year.
For the state as a whole the condi-
ton Of the early tomato is estimated
at 20 per cen of normal. In the
southern counties shipments are
over. Second earlies show a condi-
ton of from 70 to rs per cent. Late
tomatoes show uniformly fair pros
pects.

Legislative Situation

"Our conference a year ago indors-
ed the Frelinghuysen-Appleby bill,
which, you know, passed the senate,
but narrowly failed of passage in the
house in spite of u vigorous help.
That bill would have gone a long way
toward bringing relief. We have Sc
cured the promise of Senator Wads-
worth of New York to reintroduce the
bill this year and support it strongly.
The Appleby joint resolution, which
passed both houses, requested the
secretary of state to call an interna-
tional conference to discuss and
frame international agreements
against oil dumping.
"In preparation for the conference
the United States Bureau of Mines
has been making an extended inyesti-
CATION of conditions along the entire
coast of the country and will shortly
submit its report. There can be no
doubt that the steamship companies
realize the gravity of the situation
that they have Created and will take
steps to abate the same, for both the
American Petroleum Institute and the
American Steamship Owners Associ-
alton co-operated with the Bureau of
Mines in making this study.
THE present situation, then, is
that we need remedial federal and in
ternational legislation, and we need
Joint action to secure the passage OF
such legislation. We need public ed
ucation in the matter and exchange
of knowledge and experience both in
this country and in foreign countries.
To meet this need a second confer
ence of the National Coast Anti-Pol-
luton League is now being organ
lied, which will be held in Haddon
Hall, Atlantic City, October 1, 2 and
8. We are already assured the at
tendance of many prominent dele
gates from New England, Florida,
Texas and elsewhere along the coast.
We are planning a governors day
and also inviting a number of foreign
governments to send delegates. We
have been in communication with
several of them and find that they
have a real interest In the matter,
and some have adopted remedial leg
.fslation.
Il believe that this conference will
go a long way toward providing a
permanent solution of the oil pollu-
ton problem. and | earnestly request
