BREWSTER TALKS
Continued from Page One)

the last Legislature any action that
would affect the non-sectarian acade-
mics of the State and should do the
same thing again. He now charges
that I have publicly" shown the
Protestant sectarian schools how to
come out from under UNCONVENTIONAL
control and be in a position to receive
aid from the State This would seem
to recognize that non-sectarian acad-
emies are not to be affected, which is
the fact. There Is nothing partial,
however, about my suggestion, as it ia
equally applicable to the two Roman
Catholic nstitutions,-which according
to his present contention are now the
only ones that would be affected by
the proposed amendment-if they are
ready to follow the Protestant tnstitu-
lions In giving up UNCONVENTIONAL con-
troll.
MY own action in sponsoring an ap-
preparation for st. Joseph's Academy in
1917 still point to with pride as evil
dence of my lack of prejudice. After
10 years observation, / now believe il
wise to cut Off the appropriation of
public funds to all religious schools
alike without regard to sect. 1 did
not learn of the proposal of Senator
Murphy in 1915 for some years after
wards as I was not a member Of that
Legislature. This is not singular, as
my opponent apparently has not learned
until the past two months of the re-
peated attempts to secure public funds
for parochial schools during the past
10 years by a rapidly increasing class
of our population.
My opponent in his latest address
lays most Of his stress, however. upon
the charge Of intolerance against any
one in this State who dares to adyo-
cate a constitutional amendment pro-
tecting our public school system
against the encroachment of any and
all religious sects. 1t seems to me un-
fortunate and regrettable when a man
In public life casts asbersions upon
the motives Of thousands of his fell
low-citizens who are earnestly urging
such action in our State.
My opponent has used very strong
language in attacking the motives Of
all those who disagree with him.

ponent his own views as shown in the

That men will not always agree

betrayal of the trust imposed on
them, should not be Questioned
II undertake not only to preach but
to practise that sentiment and l have
tried to manifest that spirit through
out the bitter personal attacks which
have been made upon me during the
past year. 1 know that my opponent,
when the heat of this campaign has
subsidized, will very much regret any
departure from the principle there laid
down.
within the past week have taken
occasion to state publicly my convic-
ton that my opponent was not in alli-
ance with the Roman Catholics of this
State In the position which he is TAX
ing.
my opponent has stated in his most
recent address, that anyone who advo-
Gates the policy which l have proposed
in this State carries in his heart hatred
toward some of his fellowmen. Thou
sands of citizens of Maine will find
themselves associated in such a sweep
ing Indictment with a. very representa-
tive group of Americans who have adj
vocated this policy within our own day,
including Theodore Roosevelt, Cover
nor Percival p. Baxter, Hon. Payson
Smith, DR.. Augustus o. Thomas, Mr..
Edwin u. Curtis, Police Commissioner
of Boston during the Boston police
strike, Senator David I. Walsh Mar
tin Lomasney, four-fifths of the Ro-
man Catholic members of the last
Massachusetts, Constitutional conven-
ton, and majority of the citizens Of
33 of our greatest states who have
adopted such an amendment within the
past two decades.
'If the policy which I am proposing
in this State is animated by prejudice
toward certain groups of our fellow
citizens, why did the City Of Boston
give a majority of over 5000 in favor
Of the adoption of such constitu-
tional amendment in their state on No
vember IL, 1917?
This vote in Boston seems to me to
show conclusively that very many Ro-
man Catholic citizens are in sympathy
with our American public school sys-
tenn and will support it whenever an
opportunity is offered at the polls.
1T seems to me also to show con-
clusively that my opponent is entirely
unwarranted in charging with religious
prejudice the supporters of such a
policy in the State of Maine"

The recent opening in New York

Aline de Kercadiou, has brought this
talented pair into the public eye more
prominently than ever. no
Back Of this big film production of
the French Revolution which was
built in Hollywood in which there
are over 10000 performers, more than
100000 feet OF film was used by %
camera men. The settings covered
over 60 acres and at least $4,000 yards
Of dress material used in making the
costumes. The enormous amount of
money and material used would make
a dozen of the average so-called
specials. Kennels. pens, stables and
cages had to be built for dogs, pig
cons. ducks, cats. oxen, horses. cana
ries, peacocks and other birds and
animals. Carriages and coaches had
to be constructed with perfect accu-
racy. Everything had to be uniform.
