NEW YORK, February 16, —Assert- ing that there were in the movies men and women whom all would be &lad to have in their families, David W. Griffith, motion picture producer, has warned the Advertising ‘Club of New York against “the power of the fanatical minority.” In a speech which fallowed upon the church debate between Rev. Dr. John 'Roach Straton and Willlam A. Brady, theatrical potentate, upon the relative moral’ standizg of pastors and stage folk, Mr. Grifith declared no defense of the movies was neces- sary. for Ne Oceasion for Attack. “Shall we attack the banks when 2 banker gets into the newspapers, or the church wher a mii er gets into the newspapers?’ he asked. that a charged with the murder .of his brother.

I pitched my tent beside the sea and watched the billows™ wild and free, and thought at Ias 1'd found a place designed to sooths the human race. And then I saw & fogbank creep from out the reaches of the deep; the fog was gray and dank and cold, as clammy as the graveyard mold; it soaked into my’ bones and thews, and filled my or- gans and my shoes, and. rheumatism climbed my frame and broke my heart and left ‘me lame.

Charles R. Forbes, director of the United States Veterans' Bureau, to day, by the conference of neuropsy chiatric specialists, which concluded their discussions here Tuesday. Un- less a system of federal hospitaliza- tion exists, where they can be treated and where individual care and study ‘can be provided, the vocational train- ing of these men will fail, the report states. It was estimated that 12,000 neu- ropsychiatric cases will be hospital- ized before the “peak of this hospital- ization load” is reached. Pending the establishment of special hospitals, the report urges orovision of 3,950 beds. It was estimated that the cost of providing the 3,950 beds for im- mediate use in new hospitals in ospitals is ap- 0.

W. Colpitts, engineering expert or the association, provided for or- ganization of a central agen supervision of the purchase and own s large proportion of the freight cars now owned by the railroads. This organization would arrange for repair and rebuilding of the bad order cars, would purchase new ones, and enlarge the stock of refrigeratol tank and other cars of special d sign, and lease them to the rail- roads for carriage of freight. The saving would be made, the as- soclation representative said, from per raf at which such a ntral agency could borrow money for purchases and betternm ents, the mobllity with which the cars could be transferred from one section.of the country to anothér or from one railroad to another as traffic condi- tions, required, and from the decresse in the total number of cars which would be required. “We consider that this proposal is particularly advisable at the D! nt time,” Walter L. Fisher, former retary of the Interior and counsel for the association, declared, “since the commission has before it sug- gostions from Secretary Hoover that you embark upon a policy of increas- ing railroad equipment facilities to a far greater extent than it is con- templated in our plan.” CONSIDER AMENDING OF SANITARY MEASURE Arlington County Committee Will ' Meet This Afternoon to Take Up Changes Desired.
