a MOTION PICTURES AND EXPLORATION SUBJECT OF TALK Dave Wells and Oliver Eielson Are Speakers at Rotary Club Luncheon of motion picture houses and practical benefits of polar explora- luncheon meeting Wednesday. Dave Wells, manager of the Para- mount Theater, told about the mov- ies while Oliver Elelson, Hatton, brother of Carl Ben Eielson, dis- cussed exploration. Phil Meyer was program chair- man. In addition to the speakers, Eleanor Partain, a tot from the fed- eral Indian school, sang a solo and Participated in a song and dance number with Victoria Twiggs, also from the Indian school. They were accompanied on the piano by Miss Belle Mehus. Wells said the public, and particu- larly the feminine public, is the real boss in the motion picture business, since public opinion makes or breaks the success of a picture or organiza- tion. Motion picture executives do not care much for the judgment of any- one except those persons who buy tickets, Wells said. remarks, taken as a whole, which plots the course for the industry. Selecting Pictures Difficult Selecting pictures for local show- ing, Wells said, is difficult and hazardous business, since the con- tracts usually are made before the pictures are completed. The manag- er has some idea, as to what the pic- ture will be but has not seen it when he “buys” it for his house. In addi- tion, he has to take pictures in blocks, rather than individually and this prevents him from selecting only pictures with big stars. The producing firms, he said, schedule production of both feature pictures and standard productions. Sometimes the features fail to draw well and prove a poor buy. This is offset, however, by the fact that an occasional non-feature picture be- comes a sensation and packs the house. ‘When sound pictures first came in, musical comedy was all the rage, Wells said. Now the demand is for outdoor and comedy pictures. These are made possible by improvement in technique. In addition to gambling on the pic- tures he buys, Wells said, the theater operator gambles on the weather. He may schedule a feature picture which cost considerable money and which drew well elsewhere but if the weath- er is unfavorable he loses on it. Oliver Eielson, in discussing the practical value of aerial exploration, said the romantic and daring angles of the work have been overstressed. ‘The hope of Sir Hubert Wilkins, with whom his brother was associated, Etelson said, is to establish weather stations from north to south just as they now are established from east to west. Wilkins, he said, feels that the weather for any part of the globe could be forecast well in advance if this were done. ‘These trips also have helped the cause of aerial navigation, he said, and gave it as his opinion that the) science of aviation still is in its in- fancy. Discusses Wilkins’ Plan Commenting on Wilkins’ proposed trip under the ice from Spitzbergen to Point Barrow, Elelson said the purpose is to make soundings and ac- quire other data which will be val- uable for weather forecasting. The submarine will travel 3 miles an hour and Wilkins expects the trip to take 32 days, Fielson said. He added that he has been invited to make the journey but has not yet decided to accept. Guests at the luncheon were Henry Field, Wahpeton; Russell Freeman, J. P. Cain, Dickinson; Frank Ployhar, Valley Ci W._S. Whitman, Grand Forks; Walter Bond, Minot; H. K. Jensen, Mandan; Elroy Schroeder, Grand Forks; M. O. Glorvick, Aber- deen, S. D.; William A. De Puy, Jamestown; S. D. Adams, Lisbon; E. M. Gillig, Fargo; C. J.

The population of the northern district as outlined in the proposal is 335,950, while that of the southern district is 345,322. Many legislators and observers, however, anticipate that the effect of the bill will be to make agreement on @ reapportionment impossible. If the legislature fails to reapportion the re- sult will be two congressmen run- ning in the state at large at the next election. This would be satisfactory, accord- ing to current comment, to a large number of legislators, both I. V. A. and Nonpartisan, and for the same reason. Each group is hopeful that, if reapportionment fatls, they would be able to elect both congressmen. At present O. B. Burtness and Thomas j the ring during the general shakeup. Poised against this, however, is the fact that the I. V. A’s hardly would dare to run two congressmen from the Red River valley, at least at the beginning of a new deal. Just how close a battle between Sinclair and Burtness would be in the north district would be indicated by) analysis of recent election returns. Each has never run outside of his own district, where each is admit- tedly popular, so some other measure is necessary to serve as a guide.

Vote Records Interesting | An interesting sidelight, however, 1s provided by examination of the sen- atorial returns at the same time. In Grand Forks, Ward, Bottineau, Wil- liams, Steele, Ramsey and Pembina counties, Shafer piled up majorities totalling 6,863 while Thoresen got majorities totalling 2,367 from the Nonpartisan counties listed, a margin of 4,502 for Shafer. Senator Lynn J. Frazier, running against R. A. Nestos for the senate, got aggregate majorities of 3,488 while Nestos’ majorities totalled 2,008, @ margin of 1,390 for Frazier. All of which shows the instability of po- litical majorities and the ‘fact that much depends on the candidate. Few of Burtness’ supporters had carried their deductions this far Wed- nesday, but it was apparent that they looked with jaundiced eye on the Bond-Cain bill. They could see more than a possibility of their friend, Burtness, being eliminated and they were not keen about it. There were hints in some quarters, that the bill was designed to weaken’ the Burtness cohorts’ demand for east-west districts and make them see the light of getting the situation into such a mess that nothing comes of it. There were other hints that the bill was designed to line up the Non- partisans against it and thus throw upon them the blame for faliure to | Nonpartisans would need help from the I. V.

Stating that rural teachers in North Dakota are less trained than the average in the United States, Dr. Piek gave figures to show that two- thirds of the rural teachers have had only 12 weeks of education work.

MENTHOLATUM i | A New Service for Readers of The Bismarck Tribune Special Free Information Bureau Opened in Washington, D. C. The Bismarck Tribune to Act as Clearing House of Information Between the Government and the People. The Tribune believes that it can render no more important and practical service to its readers than to acquaint them with the results of the great work the Ameri- can.government is doing for them. Our government is the greatest organization devoted to a single purpose that the world has ever known. The keenest minds, the broadest learning, the most ex- pert technical skill are turned, day in and day out, on every problem that confronts the American people. Problems of the household, problems of the factory, problems - of the city, questions of health and hygiene, questions of opportunity, of self-help and help for others—all these and many more, are studied im federal laboratories and in the field by men who are at the head of their professions and who are backed by the resources of the richest nation on earth. This work is being done for you. Your government is doing it. You are en- titled to the benefit of its results. To know the details of government activities, to see and understand the great machinery behind them, is to take a new pride in the United States and in American citizenship. But the government offers more than a stimulus to pride. It gives con- crete and practical help to its citizens.in their homes and in their business, in every phase of their lives save religion. The Tribune will act as a clearing house between the government and the people. It will assemble, compile, and distribute the practical results of the great federal work of research and investigation. It will make this information available to every one of its readers. For this purpose The Tribune opens its Washington bu- reau. , The services of Frederic J. Haskin as director of the new bureau have been secured. Mr. Haskin is well known as one of the leading authorities on the work- ings of the federal government. His book, “The American Government,” is a stan- dard on the subject. His great moving picture, “Uncle Sam at Work,” was based on this book, Mr. Haskin is a man of wide travel and of long experience in the ac- curate and concise reporting of facts. His position in Washington fits him peculiar- ly for the work the bureau is to dé# ANSWERING YOUR QUESTIONS The Washington bureau will act as a free information service for every read- | er of The Bismarck Tribune. It will answer, free, any question of fact sent to it by any reader. The bureau cannot give advice or opinions on matters of law or medicine, or undertake exhaustive research, but it will answer any question of in- formation on any subject.
