' 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.
