French Yielding in
Film Import Struggle

PARIS, May 4.-Will Hays, Gear"
of the American MOVIES" who came
here to confer with the French Gov
eminent in the interests of the United
States film companies was optimistic
today over the concessions made to
the Americans by the Government
Cinema Control Commission.
Under the compromise plan pro-
posed by the French commission the
four-to-one quota for foreign films
would be abandoned and American
companies would be permitted to i'm
port into France from 40 to so per
cent of the total imports of 1877 when
there were no restrictions upon i'm
portations.
However, the plan was so con-
structed that American companies
would probably be compelled to pur-
chase certain number of French
films each year

Gown AIDS GIRL
To GET JOB

NEW YORK, Nov. 14.-Women
are no longer fixtures, and the
wanderlust, once a goad to man s
adventure, is now a driving power
among women, Cornelia Marshall,
president of the Association to Pro.
mote Proper Housing for Girls, de-
clared, commenting on reports Of
the investigating committees of the
association.
The low rate of wages paid TO
girls, said Miss Marshall, is due to
the fact that many come to New
York just to gain prestige in their
own line of work, willing to work
for lower pay than they would de-
mand at home. Hence she advises
girls to avoid New York unless
they have at least SIS and possess
complete working wardrobe.
Miss Marshall estimates that lt
takes a girl about one month to OBJ
tain employment and neatly furn-
ished room costs about So weekly.
apart from board and car fare and
other incidentals.
Miss Marshall said that a canvass
of employers netted this maxim:
1--WE would rather engage girl
who looks smart but is unframed
than a competent worker who does
not look smart. We can teach a
girl to know her work. but we can
not teach her how to dress"
1t is the hope of the association,
Miss Marshall added. to see organ
lied in New York city in the near
future houses for girls which WI
provide S. a week rooms on an en-
tirely f.supporting basis.
