' Nation Backs Conference. "When the arms conference became n fccrtainty, concerted effort was mad-? by many representative organizations j toobtain and forward to the confer- j once a concensus of public opinion on i the subject. Churches, women's club I commercial and labor organizations I collcgcH and municipalities took up the I work of making public opinion tirticu- j late. Votes were taken and question-1 li aires Rent out. Tho answers were! compiled and sent on to Wa;shinpton. J The resolutions us .summarized and; presented expressed the sentiments of C,'5:i5, 1-1(1 persons from all parts of; the country and all phases of lif I find industry. All favored disarms-j mcnt. By far the greatest numbei , favored "co-operative limitation of , I arms, lelt with commence to tn? judgment of ti e arms delegation." Hero is a crystallization of public sentiment which may be accepted as representative. The Senate tan hard ly afford to disappoint the public by refusing its compliance and putting off once more the hope of peace to ward which all men are struggling. Historical FilmsT Even while the motion -picture drama is becoming more and more meaningless and built after one style, a different field of the movie art (s raid to be developing. According to .one critic the" number of-good short subjects is steadily incre:.siiuj. 'i'h$ pictures dealing with them are very well -done. One vast field for such short sub jects is that of history. A recent re lease imported from England is called "The ibttle of Jutland." It is histor ically nccuinte. Every maneuver ol that conflict is faithfully reproduced 3n miniuture. The movement of every ship is shown. i .Important events and the prominent parsons participating in them are reg ularly subjects for motion picture pho tography, and the public takes gen uine Interest in thorn. There are even people who will sit through a todiou , feature1 film for the pleasure of see ing these other pictures of real life. This tends to prove that what nuriy person have believed right along 4hat tho art and mechanical device" of tho motion pictuie ale very useful nnd have great possibilities for furth er extension. The whole outlay i; not to be lost end wasted just beeau. it few producers do not yet make the best use of thi'ir equipment.
