BEI'I'ER FILMS
MEEHNG TO
BE AT LIBRARY

Mrs. J. Randolph Bray
Will Talk Monday
Afternoon On Trip
To Hollywood.

A meeting of the Better Films
association will be held at the'Nor-
walk library. on Monday. April 12.
at 2:30 P. M. Mrsusfinenaoipn
Bray will speak about her recent
visit to Hollywood.

The Better Films association was
organized last year to encourage the
showing of clean. wholesome. and
better films. to discourage those of
saiacious and unwholesome‘ charac-
ter. and to promote a higher staud~
ard for children's matinees. .

The association ran a few per
formances to prove that children
would attend and enjoy program!
suitable for them. It was RS" at any
time planned to filter tht business
of the theatres rmanentiy. and
this year it was de nitslytvoted that
not more children's-malice" of
better was the object. of the case is-
tion. Observers 'ere sent to the
childrenie. [Ill-in"! offered by the
“amending t the as~
sociation decided toi try: to have
some infiuente on the chefs eof plays
for children’s matinces. . This neces-
sity now seems so urgent that it has
taken the form of a demand rather
than an offer. ,

Meanwhile. the Review and Pub-
licity commitees became the associa-
tion's chief concern. In both they
have been greatly hampered by the
di..culty of finding people who
could give the necessary time to
what might well occupy the whole
of any person‘s attention. by the
waiting upon concessions by the
managers which were delayed. and
by the necessity to feel that step by
step._ln an experimental attempt to
get the necessary information. ‘and
get it over effectually to the public
and the motion picture producers.

This year Colonel Joy. Chairman
of the Committee on Public Rela-
tions of the Will Hayes organisation
(embracing 33 of the m powerful
companies occupied in e_ motion
picture business) established what
they called The Open Door to re-
ceive the cvunents. pro and conflof
the public on motion pictures. which
should no reach the matters direct.
They decided to make use .of. this
opening. and the reports of the re-
viewers. three of whom they-now
try to have at each first perform.

are turned in Lat the“ end .of cash

Open Door. Sin case of a protest. it
is sent in without delay! The paper:

i Resolutions urging the retention

adopted by two lnymen's conferences
of the Methodist Episcopal Church
in New York city. yesterday. One of
the resolutions also provided for the
appointment of a committee of 100

lax-Mayor Makes Attack

. At the conference in Manhattan
‘ attacks on the Governor and Senator
Wadsworth. were made in a report
by niel W. Wilbur, former Mayor
of oughkcopsic. on "The Stato‘oi
the Church."

The one claim to national distinc-
tion that our Govcror. Alfred E.
Smith. has. is that he is open and
slinriicicssly well” said the report.
"And that there might not remain
the slightest doubt of his failure to
support or even sympathize with
either the Eighteenth Amendment or
the \‘olstcad act. he gave executive
approval to the bill repealing the
Mullah-Gage enforcement law, thus
serving notice on every peace official
in the State that he was relieved
from any obligation to interfere with
those doing any illicit business in a1-
coltolio liquors.

No Hope in Democrats

"That’the majority of the leaders
in Governor Smith's political party
in this State are openly in sympathy
with him is common knowledge. It
may therefore be said that in so far
as the leaders who control the Demo-
cratic Party in New York State can
do so. they have committed the citi-
zens who have affiliated with that
political party to the support of the
nulliilcationists and bootleggers.

."There is. therefore. no hope for
glow enforcement against allegal truf-
flc . in, alcoholic liquors from the
‘.Domocratic Party as an organization
in this State. Where. then. may the
Christian citizenry cf New.York look
for. eupport of _law enforcement
against those who defy and set at
naught. . the ~nation‘s inhibition
against traffic alcoholic liquors?
To the Republ an state organiza-
tion? .Would its past record justify
that course? No.

"The acknowledged leader of the
Republican Party in this State is its
senior Senator in Congress. and on
the question of nullldcation and law
enforcement against traffic in liquor
he h'notoriously wet.‘ _ _

“The only distinction between him
and Governor Smith is that he lacks
courage to define with the same
brutal frankness as deep the Gover-
nor. on this great moral questipnlf .
