At a conference with some of the mo tion picture people and a delegation of women representing the censor board he outlined his plans, which call for the elimination of undesirable films by ordinance if the result cannot be brought about peacefully juid quietly. "Until recently." said Mayor Albee, "I have had the co-operation of all the picture house proprietors, and we have cheta thundetrable films.
