 Alarmed by fear of adoption of a pending censorship bill in the state legislature the producers in a closed session yesterday appointed com mittee headed by Winthrop Ames, to confer with Mayor Walker when he returns from Cuba, on ways and means for modifying Broadway pro- auctions.
 The plan is in keeping with de- mand by Mayor Walker month ago that the producers appoint a censorship committee of their own or they would be confronted by a legal censorship.
 William A. Brady told the meeting that the censorship bill would pass the legislature and Richard Hern- don, producer of the annual Harvard prize play, predicted that Governor Smith would sign it.

"Outside censor- ship and ineNpert muddling with things theatrical was the fear that prompted organization of the com mittee, it was explained. Judgment of theatrical work is difficult enough for experts the producers de- cided. Amateur interference would result in chaos they said.
 Fred Stone, musical comedy star, before the staff of the national coun- cil of the Y. M. c. A. here yesterday deprecated the worth Of the play jury and declared a need for censor- ship.
 T believe there is a great need for one good play censor right now, :" he said, "and the sooner he starts in on his job the better it will be for all concerned"

Before these are drawn the several Masonic bodies who will occupy the temple will be invited to send rep resentatives to a meeting of the building committee, to advise with the committee and architect as to final details and arrangements suit able for the needs of the different bodies. There has been some criti- cism of the lack of publicity in con- nection with the action of the board and the building committee. We have felt 1t wise however, for several reasons, to work quietly in some matters, particularly in the purchas- ing of real estate, when advance ln- formation ofttimes raises prices. We have had no desire to keep intorma- ton from our stockholders but we felt it unwise to begin any agitation until we had :. definite program ready to launch.

LEWIS NOW WANTS
 Sl2,000 SALARY
This Provides Another Basis for
 Union Argument

Indianapolis, Ind, Jan. 29.-dF- A proposal to increase the salaries of officers of the United Mine work CTS of America has provided another point of conflict between administra- trative forces and the minority oppo- sition at the biennial convention of the miners.
 which would raise the salary of John L. Lewis, president, from $S,- 900 to s12,000 a year, and the vice. presidents and secretaries from ST. 900 to $9,000 each had just reached the floor for debate yesterday when the convention adjourned.
 Bitter opposition led by John Brophy, of Clearfield. Pa.. minority leader, was looked for today when the proposal comes up again for con- sideration.
 William Green. president of the American federation of labor, ad- dressed the convention yesterday after a final report of the creden- tials committee, which excluded Powers Hapgood of Cressn. Pa., a Harvard graduate, and Alexander Howat. former powereful Kansas miners leader, from the convention, was adopted.
 A five-day week, higher wages, and vigorous attack on "commu- nistic forces threatening American trade union movement" are the three outstanding policies oswhieh the federation of labor is committed, Green declared.
 The American federation of labor will carry the attack on those des- tructive forces which are boring into the American trade movement just as the United Mine workers Is com mitted to that propram,' Green de- clared in attacking communism. Mir. Green was member of the miners union and was It's secretary before he became president of the Ameri- can federation of labor.
 Mine operators in Pennsylvania, West Virginia, and other districts who abrogated the Jacksonville wage agreement of 1921 came in for an arraignment by the federation presi- dent. These operators were assailed by him ''as committing the most fragrant act of perfidy in the history of the United States" in repudiating the Jacksonville agreement.

WILD BOAR STORY
Paolino UZcudun'S Story of Brave Fight Found to Be a Battle With Domestic Pigs.

Tampa, Fla, Jan. 29 LPt-A true story" of Paolino Uzcudun's wild boar expedition has come to light here. The Spanish heavyweight told New York reporters recently he kill ed three wild boars in Cuba in a fierce battle just before coming to this country. A Havana newspaper then declared there were no wild boars in Cuba.
 The story was true except for two points. The boars were not wild, they were common Florida razor back" hogs, and the battle" was fought on the outskirts of Tampa instead of in Cuba.
 Paolino was a member of a hunt ing party during his visit here. He came upon the hogs in the woods and instructed his companions to flee for their lives. He shot one pig another md killed the third with a blow from his fist
 His companions paid the irate farmer for the three hogs and a barbecue was served to Paolinos s friends in the Spanish colony here.

PEACHES ID CLAIM
 DADDY NOT SANE
BroEping's Wife Has Psychia- hist Studying Court Actions

New York. Jan. 2s @-The separation suit of Edward w. Browning, wealthy realtor, against his 16 year old wife. Francis "Peaches" Browning. when 1t is re- sumed in White Plains Monday, may resolve itself into battle of alien ists over the question of Browning's s sanity.
 Mrs. Brownings attorneys. it is understood, plan to call to the wit ness stand a prominent psychia- l trist who it Is reported has been ob- serving Browning since the opening | of the trial. This witness would tes- tlfy 1t was said. that Browning's al- legged cruelty was due to deficient mentality.
 Counsel for the 51 year old hus- band yesterday announced they would combat this move by having several prominent psyschiatrists tes- tify that Browning is perfectly sane.
 John Mack. chief of Browning's legal staff, at Poughkeepsie last night succinctly described what would constitute Browning's answer to his wite's charges
 ''We will place about twenty wit nesses on the stand" he said. These witnesses, and the motion to place in evidence the much letters of "Peaches' will constitute our re- buttal."
 Supreme Court Justice Seeger at the re-opening of the trial will be called upon to rule on the admis- sion as evidence of Mrs. Browning's diary, in which she recorded, as she admitted on the stand, love affairs with boy friends before her mar riage. Mir. Mack said he has pre- pared a brief asking for its admis- sion.
 Brovning's counsel desire intro duction of the diary to prove that she was "a woman of the world" before her nuptials and therefore her husbands behavior after mar riage could not have shocked her and constituted species of cruelty.
