 President Manuel L. Quezon, without rest after the busy and tir- ing inauguration program. plunged vigorously into his administration and already has accomplished many things toward stabilizing the new government, including:
 i. Inauguration of the national defense program.
 ?. Organization of new appel late court.
 3. Arrangements for retiring out- standing bonded obligations of the Manila Railroad, government-owned corporation.
 1. Maintenance of law and order, including suppression of banditry in Tayabas, removal of a number of officials for inefficiency, corruption or the good of the service, and irl- auguration of campaign against juetcng, prevalent form of lottery. 5. Reorganization of many of the departments and offices of the gov- ernment.
 6. Steps to prevent profiteering in the rice shortage.
 Many Lesser Gains
 Other items of lesser importance might be listed.
 Rumors and threats of violence, frequently heard prior to inaugu- ration, have subsided. The govern ment's efforts to protect the pub lie on rice prices, distribution of public works funds, steps for the purchase of additional friar lands for resale to tenants have served to quiet unrest.
 It is said Quezon is a dictator. However, as one of his supporters put 1t, 1t is a constitutional dic- tatorShlp." In other words through his political skill, qualities of leader ship and general popularity Quezon is able to exercise his will without transgressing against any of the forms of democratic government.
 Best Talent Put to Work
 In the reorganization of the gov- ernment Quezon has asserted that the foremost considerations are in- tegrity and ability. He has given evidence that he is aware the coun- try Is facing supreme test, and that he is eliminating other consid-

WOMEN'S CLUBS
 CLEANSE MOVIES
They Are Doing Their Share in Hollywood to
 Keep Screen Moral
BY MARY KNIGHT

oL NAhNA AAANhNHA
 Copyright, 1936, by United Press)
 Hollywood, May l.--(UP) Most people think--and so did I until I came to she screen colony--that the VIII Hays organization and the League of Decency and a few such organizations are the only check oil the morals of the movies.
 But that isn't true. The truth is that women's clubs play Q most im- portant If unofficial, part in mak- ing the celluloid magnates produce films that stay on the straight and narrow.
 Women Keep Very Busy
 found there were nine impor- tant women's organizations Judging films in Hollywood. These units brand the pictures 1t for family" general adult,"' unfit" or place upon them some other clasSiflcas tions.
 The organizations and their pre- viewers:
 1. National Society of Daughters of the American Revolution--Mrs. Richard R. Russell.
 2. National Society of New Eng. land Women--Mrs. David H. Ray.
 3. General Federation of Wom- ems Clubs--Mrs. William A. Burk.
 1. California Congress of Parents and Teachers, Inc.--Mrs. Leo B. Hedges and Mrs. Thomas Morrissey.
 5. National Council of Jewish Women-Mrs. Florine Wolfstein. 6. The Women's University Club Mfrs. John Kruwink and Mrs. Pal- mer Cook.
 2. Southern California Council of Federated Church Women-Mrs. M. F. Thomson.
 8. The California Federation of Business and Professional Won1en's Clubs-Mhs. Odessa Davis.
 9. American Legion Auxiliary Mrs. Max Ellison. Nothing Commercial
 There is nothing commercial in the work of these organizations as regards their interest in Hollywood and the motion picture industry. They work without pay and have no direct connectoin with any studio. They keep Q close watch over all pictures.
 The organizations wield tre- mendous ipfluence unoficially and indirectly because in the event they choose to lobby against a picture or studio, their voice would be heard and needed.
 Studio censorships arc severe, in- dividually, but should one chance to relax 1t would be called to reckon Ing, not only by the Hays organ ization which keeps an eagle eye over the industry at large but also by any one or all of the nine un- official organizations which take 1t upon themselves to keep motion pie lures pure.
 Unofficial Ambassador
 The nine also have named Mrs. Nathalie Bucknell as unofficial mo- ton picture ambassador in Holly wood.
 When problems concerning other governments arise she contacts their local representatives or cables their capltaB'
 Mrs, Bucknell frequently Is called upon to address womens clubs and organizations throughout the coun- try.
 She said that all religious groups were "cooperating with the studios in attempting to bring about Q net- ter and more comprehensive under standing of the aims and ambitions of picture producers, aside from the purely commercial angle"
 Mrs. Bucknell revealed that France once sent Baron Valentin Manelstam to Hollywood to labor against pictures which might re- fleet discredit on his country. There was so little to do that he wsa recalled and since then no foreign nation has had such Q representa- five
