Motion Picture Powerful in
Influencing Public Opinion,
Declares Edison
By ROBERT 5. THORNBURGH


The motion picture Is the most
powerful avenue for influencing
public opinion and thought that
has ever existed. according to
Thomas A. Edison. r
Edison, along with Douglas Fair
banks, Doctor John j. Tigert,
United States Commissioners of Edu-
cation, and Colonel Alvin Owsley,
former commander Of the American
Legion, were brought before the
Federal Trade Commission by the
Government in the action which
| seeks to establish that the Zukor
interests have formed a conspiracy
to monopolize and control the movie
business of the United States.
These witnesses substantiated the
Governments plea that AN unhanl.
pered motion picture business is
lin the public interest" BY these
individuals the Government hoped
to prove It necessary that the al
legged combine should be smashed.

HAPPY BINDINGS

MOT LONG AGO we seized our pa
= pers impatiently each morning to
learn the latest development in the
strange case of Floyd Collins, impris-
oned in Kentucky cave. The event
had all the elements of successful
drama. No play producer was ever
more successful in maintaining sus-
pense.
Day after day as engineers, miners,
and biologists worked feverishly with
all the modern machinery available to
rescue the life of this imprisoned man,
we looked on with almost breathless
interest. Then came the end. They did
not arrive in time. The drama was a
great tragedy of real life.
How different was this from the
average movie. On the screen or the
stage everything must end happily.
People do not want. to face the reali-
ties of life. They want the hero to ov-
ercome super-human obstacles. They
want to see the beautiful heroine res
cued at the last moment. And in de-
handing this departure from what is
really true of life, they miss much

good, Indifferent and useless land that
it is proposed to put under the ditch

farmer anywhere who does not know
that raw lands under such a handicap
as that are worse than worthless to
any owner or settler under such con-
ditions as prevail now, or ever have

may be true that new conditions are
to prevail in the future. Let us hope
so. The principal condition under
which Columbia Basin irrigation will
be feasible from the settlers stand
point is that farm products must
bring about three times as much as
they ever have brot before. Whoever

TREE SEASON

DAINT UP and clean up time as
L about here. With the arrival OF
spring comes natural desire to make
the home, the place of business, and
the community in general present a
little better appearance.
But how many of us here in Ken
newick think Of spring time as tree
planting time? We cannot have too
MANY trees here in Kennewick as
the editor has asserted time and
again. There is nothing under the sun
that YOU can do that will beautify the
community more than to plant more
trees on your own property.
The writer had occasion few years
ago to investigate property values In
a community similar to Kennewick.
And this brot to his attention some
of the factors that enter into making
property values. Homes located On
street lined with beautiful elms were
uniformly several hundred dollars
higher in value than mere houses
located in less beautiful neighbor-
hoods.
A well kept lawn with trees on the
curb, a little shubbery attractiveiy
placed, and perhaps garden at the
rear all showing the effects of care
and thot, appeal to any prospective
buyer. Of course we do not advocate
identifying property merely to sell
it for more money. But the point is
this:
If beautified surroundings are re-
ally worth good money to others they
are worth something to you. Survey
in your own mind the grounds sur
rounding your home one of these
days. Imagine how few more trees
might improve the appearance. Then
plan to do little landscape garden
ing this spring.
The Kennewick courier-reporter. [volume] (Kennewick, Wash.) 1914-1938, 1925-03-05

that might be derived from the screen.
Tragedy = an artistic picture of
reality = can be of great value in
the life of every man and woman.
For we cannot see people struggle in
the face of great adversely only to
lose everything in the end without
feeling that our own little troubles
are really petty, small, and of no con-
sequence.
The ancient Greeks considered ira
eedy the greatest of all arts. They
felt that people are improved when
they can think upon the disasters that
befall others in this world. They fell
that the heart is made better, more
human, and more lovable when the
man has witnessed others struggling
in the hands of terrible and uncon
querable fate.

DOLLARS IN SIGHT

ARE YOU making plans for big
"A ger season? Do you look forward
to better business next year? If not,
we fear you have failed to read the
signs of the times Alright. For the
year 1925 is really just starting altho
we have been dating our letters 1925
for more than two months.
The new year really starts in the
Spring. When the snow begins to go
and our feathered friends who spend
their winters in the far South begin
to return, we really get started on
the new season. Then it is that our
people begin to buy in preparation
for the new season. And then but not
until then, can we say or guess just
what sort of business 1925 holds in
store for us in Kennewick.
It is not mere blind optimism that
causes business executives to predict
a good season. It is not mere hope
that causes them to enlarge their
plants in preparation for a rush of
orders. It is rather careful study
of all the factors that make for pros
perity that causes them to look for
ward to good year, and those of us
who are unable to make such study
should be satisfied with taking their
word for it.
Labor conditions are better now
than they have been for some time.
There seems to be plenty of work for
those who want to work, and that Of
course will make for better business
for everyone. When the worker in
the city is getting good wages. the
farmer will get better prices. And
The Kennewick courier-reporter. [volume] (Kennewick, Wash.) 1914-1938, 1925-03-05

when the farmer begins to prosper,
the merchant will benefit. He in turn
will dispose of more goods, which Gre
ates demand for labor, and so it
goes around the circle.
All we need here in Kennewick is
little more optimism. Dollars are
going to start circulating more freely
in the very near future. Make up your
mind to do little hustling and get
your share.
The Kennewick courier-reporter. [volume] (Kennewick, Wash.) 1914-1938, 1925-03-05

WE see by the headlines that the
w government experts who have in
vestigated the Columbia Basin irri-
cation project have found it "feas-
ible." The headlines should be read
with understanding. Any scheme for
the expenditure of money out of the
national treasury is feasible, in the
judgment of gentlemen such as those
who report. The treasury has piles
Of money and the power of the gov
eminent to tax the people is unlimit-
ed. Nothing can be undertaken which
will keep these gentlemen On the
federal payrolls is impossible or even
impractical. From this point of
view, there never has been any DOUBT
about the feasibility of the Basin
scheme. From the standpoint of the
farmer who is expected to go out on
this land and try to make use of it,
feasibility" means something entire
ly different from what it means to
the payroll guy. The estimated costs
of the Basin irrigation project run all
the way from $157 to $2s9 per acre,
the charges to be made against the
