WEATHERS CRISIS
Anybody holding down $780,
900 Job is away UP on top OF the
mountain and fair target for those
who would like to have 1t. At varl'
Gus times Postmaster General Far
ley has been mentioned by gossip
columnists as the Will Hays sue
cessor. Also Ex-Mayor Jimmy
Walker and Ex-Governor Al Smith,
of New York, have figured in what
was probably idle conjecture, and
made something to talk about for
the moment.
AS far as those connected with
the movies are concerned Will
Hays seems to fill this position OF
high honor and power to the com
plete satisfaction of those who are
paying the check. Occasionally
there is a grumble from some dis
contented producer or exhibitor
but his IS years administration OF
Hollywood affairs has been singu'
larly free of any major crisis to
threaten his reign.
Probably the most ticklish prob
lem that confronted the movie
overlord was the national furore
in 1884 over immoral and sugges'
tive movies, and the inSiStent de-
mand for a cleanup coupled with
the threat of U. S. censorship.
PURIFIED MOVIES
The Legion of Decency became
a militant force for a cleaner
screen, and it had the vigorous
support of other nonSectarian or
ganizations, firm in their honest
belief that a restraining hand
should be applied to the producers.
The Hays organization was
quick to recognize the merit Of the
protest. Out of many confer
ences came the present production
code, which every producing studio
in the organization must follow
before it is given what is called
the "Code Seal" signifying that
the picture is okay for nationa
release and public exhibition.
Joseph I. Breen was installed as
Coast assistant to President Hay
and given full power in the en-
forcement of the new production
code. Every so often some pro
ducer kicks over the traces, issues
statements, VOWS to high HEAVIER
that he will appeal to the full
board Of directors Of the Hays or
ganization against what he con
siders an arbitrary Breen ruling
But it invariably ends with sub
mission to the Hays authority, fol
the belief prevails in the industry
Mr.. Hays would have his way II
the appeals court.
Once in while, as in the case
of "Klondike Annie" the Hays or
ganization is accused of going tc
sleep, or at least nodding, when
controversial celluloid slips ny
with a purity tag. This, in spite
of the fact that the Hays design
for pictures has done more tc

tive catch lines and sinful impll-
cations have been ruled out. There
must indeed be a good reason Tor

exploitation purposes that eX-
poses unduly the human form.
Here in Washington two enter
prising writer's for the movies de-
cided to take chance and ignore
the Hays code for clean copy.

office had one of these enterprls-

be only coincidence that the

KEEPS IN TOUCH
1t is Will Hays who is charged

tries, which accounts for his fire.
quent trips abroad. He keeps a
sensitive finger on the nations
pulse with regard to restrictive
legislation and tax questions, and
one of his agents is invariably in
the halls of Congress when bills
affecting the movies are up for
hearing.
The affable Mr.. Hays is recog-
nized on Capitol Hill as die-hard
conservative Republican and a
good Presbyterian. But he never
lets his politics interfere with his
official duties and it was the Will
Hays policy that governed news
reels in the last exciting national
campaign-Wherever it is humanity
possible see that the G. o. P. and
the Democrats get a $3.50 break
on the screen. He took President
Roosevelt's Son-in-laW, John Boet-
tiger (now publisher of the Seattle
Post t-Tntelligencer), into the high
Hays councils and recently he
added Kenneth Clark, Of Washing
ton, another New Dealer, to his or
ganization.
AS a former Postmaster General
in the Harding administration,
member in good standing of the
Union League Club, and former
chairman of the Republican ma
tional committee, Will Hays is con-
ceded by both Democrats and Re-
publicans to have been one of the
greatest organizers of modern pol
itics. In his political heydey he

salary to pay his club dues, for he

Happy Birthday, then, to Will H

ton of one of the greatest bust
nesses in the world has been a gilt
tering success. He is called the
Car of the Movies, but he is an
amiable, fair and efficient ruler.
