Speaker at Conference
Charges Rum Propaganda
Put in Films.

Liquor interests are using the NOV
ing pictures to break down the
eighteenth amendment and foreign
propaganda is allowed full sway in
the films shown in America, Dr. II.
Leigh Colvin of New York said in an
address at the morning session of the
national motion picture conference at
the Raleigh Hotel today.
DR.. Colvin declared that the motion
picture films not only make the pro-
hihition amendment look ridiculous,
but make the consumption of liquor
alluring He declared that 1t was to
the advantage of motion picture pro-
ducers to support the eighteenth
amendment for, since it's enactment.
millions of dollars spent annually on
tntoxicants now are diverted to places
of amusement.
The pre-prohibition problem of al
cohol and the present-day problem OF
objectionable motion pictures are not
parallel he said. In the case of the
former alcohol in any form was in
furious and the cure for the destruc-
tion wrought by its use was complete
eradication, he said. With the NOV
ing pictures he continued, there is
a world of good that can be per-
formed. but the bad element" must
be wiped out.
Mrs. Ida b. Wise Smith. president
of the Woman's Christian Temperance
Union of Iowa. declared II is virtually
impossible to find 4 motion picture
that does not contain scenes of drink
ing, cigarette smoking and wild
parties. The motion pictures, she
said. were the prime factor in shap-
ing the childrcn's lives in the future.
Elimination of debauchery and en-
largement of the life of decency' is
necessary. Both speakers emphasized
the need for Federal regulation of
the films at their origin.
Other speakers this morning were
Col John f. Margetts and L. H.
Cherrington, secretary of the World
League Against Alcoholism. Reports
of committees were presented at noon
and the conference recessed for its
final session, which will end at 4:30
o'clock this afternoon.

day afternoon. He declared morals will
be the thing of the past If the filth
poured through the country by the mo-
tion picture industry" is not curbed, and
urged Federal control of all pictures.
No individual State is powerful enough
to grapple with this most powerful
industry" DR.. Johnson said. The
method of regulating the showing of
motion pictures would be along the
lines the Government adopts in prevent

loved. He said If the Government did

Rev. DIR. Clifford e. Twombly of

spoke on the bill now in CongrAss to

sion. Passing out copies of the bill
among the audience, Canon Chase
discussed the measure section by
section and in the absence of any
thing better, urged its immediate
passage by Congress. He charged,
however, that congressional forces
were working against him, declaring
we've been trying for a year to get
hearing on this bill' before the
committee headed by Representative
Dallinger of Massachusetts. Canon
Chase said Mr.. Dallinger wrote

when the committee favored its
adoption several years ago and he

DOES HE LOVE ME?
There's No Way to Find Out You'll
Have to Wait and See Enjoy
His Friendship.

Ny dear. there's no way to find
out whether he loves you. You,ll
have to wait and see. His asking
you to marry him would be the
only proof that he loves you.
A man can be all that's gently
considerate and friendly and yet
remain just q good friend.
Saddened. as he in AL proba
bity is. by the trouble he's just
been through, he may feel for
a while that he wishes to forget
love and marriage. and he turns
the more gratefully to your
friendship.
And that leads to the possibility
that some day. quite naturally,
his friendship may deepen and.
grow into love. But that's only
4 remote contingency, not q safe
foundation on which to build
hopes.
Also that contingency his low

friendship he offers. Don't dwell

and doubt:
Dear Miss Fairfax:
II lived fairly happy married

have fallen desperately in love
with the friend who as my adj

long illness and death and the
year Of struggle that followed.
Our families were friends.
He has recently been divorced.
He has little girl six months
older than my boy. The two
children have been together since
they were babies and are very
fond Of each other. / love her

Yet he employs a housekeeper
and / work In an office. We

Then again the doubt arises. that
almost drives me mad. He's very
thoughtful for everyone. Even be

as an ideal man. And he has
always claimed : am 100 per
cent.
He does so many nice things
for me flowers. candy, almost
daily telephone calls and many
other little attentions.
IN all the years we've been
friends we never had cross
word until now. we can hardly
get through a telephone CONVERSE
ton now without some little dis
agreement.
And why2 Can you tell me?
IF, as you say In some Of your
articles, suffering makes one
great, / would rather stay at the
bottom. / have always been OF
a cheerful disposition. But now
I'm losing interest in everything.
Can a man do all things he
does for me and still remain just
a friend? Do please tell me. for
If he doesn't care for me I think
will have to give up the
