the largest motion picture distributor
in the world having 1900 complete
eight-reel programs in duplicate and
150 in triplicate and almost 5000 reels
of short stories, comedies and car
toons
Simultaneous with the release of
features to the large theaters, the
Navy starts two prints of them on cir
cults from the East and West Coasts
in which the films travel three years
before returning to storage. The reels
go from ship to ship until every YES
sci of the fleet has had it's turn, then
after an overhauling they go the
rounds of the naval stations.
Navy's Taste I'M Films.
The Navy motion picture service is
under the direction Of the Bureau of
Navigation's training division. Be-
fore film is leased it is screened and
revised by representatives of the train
ing division, which makes an effort to

CONSTITUTION TOBE
FLOATING MUSEUM
Navy Department Requests
Relics of PaImy Days of
Veteran Frigate.

Plans are being formulated by the
Navy Department for fitting the u.
s. Frigate Constitution up as a mu-
scum of the period when she won
everlasting fame and the designation
''Old Ironsides," and then to send
it on a cruise to the National Capital
and other cities of the East coast so
that people may see something of the
early Navy when the Republic was
in the making.
The Government now has many
relics of the Constitution, and will as
semble them to be put aboard as soon
as the vessel is remodeled, and at the
same time is making an appeal to de-
scendants of those who served aboard
the old fighting ship to lend them
such relics as they possess, in order
to include them in the exhibit.
Plans Floating Monument.
The Government wants such things
as old prints, paintings, models. let
ters, weapons and other materials: in
fact anything that will help make her
floating monument to the brave men
serve as an object of patriotic appeal
to the present and future generations,
Plans have been completed For the
docking of the Constitution in the
Boston Navy Yard. but the actual
docking cannot be done until suffi-
cient funds are available TO warrant
continuation of the work, once il
has been started.
Depends on Sale.
The date of completion of the work
depends upon the results of the sale
of the beautiful 10-color prints of "Old
Ironsides,'' by Gordon Grant, which
may be obtained at 25 cents a cop|
from Rear Admiral Philip Andr<WS,
u. S. N, at the Navy Yard, Soston,
Mass.
Admiral Andrews is chairman of the
national executive committee to save
the vessel for future generations.
