Off CHURCH BOARD
Association Announces AC-

Propaganda Reports.

Sy the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, December l3.-Wil H..
Hays, president of the Motion Picture
Producers and Distributors of America,
and Carl E. Milliken, general secretary
of the same organization, have been
dropped from the board of directors of
the Church and Drama Association.
Rev. George Reid Andrews, executive
secretary announced today.
1T was deemed WISE" he said, mot
to have representatives of the motion
picture industry on the board of direc-
tors. A committee appointed to look
into the matter decided six months ago
that it would be best not to re-elect
MIR. Hays and Mr.. Milliken to the
board"
The Church and Drama Association
was formed last September by merger
of three organizations, the central body
having been launched in 1926 by the
Federal Council of Churches OF Christ
in America. Rev. DR.. S. Parks Cadman
is president.
Although Mr.. Andrews would not
admit there were other reasons for the
removal of Mr.. Hays and Mr.. Milliken
than that given, the Herald-Tribune
said 1t had learned from member OF
the association that Mr.. Hays had at
tempted to draw the Church and Drama
Association into a film propaganda
scheme by sending out publicity and
propaganda material from his own office

CRITIClZES WORLD COURT
MOVE OF UNITED STATES

BY Gable to The Star.
BUENOS AIRES, December 13.-The
newspaper La PrenSa editorially sees
the United States entry into The Hague
Court as important, when it is viewed
as bringing the United States into
closer participation in the League of
Nations and breaking down Washing
tons traditional policy of isolation.
However, the newspaper considers the
efforts of the European nations to at
tract the United States to the court
and the concessions made seem to have
given more consideration to the needs of
the United States than of the court"
1t adds: "The ideal road toward con-
ciliation and paciflSm is to amplify the
courts powers. The adhesion of the
United States restricts it or permits it
to be restricted to such extremes that
it is impossible to foretell where it will
arrive"

that Kester caused more than $5,000,-
