She said: “When the industry sees fit to| withdraw a number of the most ob-. | jectionable films now being shown, | it will go a long way toward estab. lishment.of a greater degree of con- fidence in that oft-repeated statement that the industry is doing everything possible to raise the standard of mo. | tion pictures.” Her recommendations included the astablishment of a fund, “the general | federation foundation.” for special | work: creation of a permanent federa- tion “board of trustees’: an organized hody of law observance and law ad- ministration for all departments. and support of legislation in ‘“principle,” rather than in the letter of the bill.

THE EVENING FIVENEWSPAPER the indorsement of Federal legislative measures. It Provldefl that the board of direc- tors “take some action looking toward the establishment in Washington of a permanent legislative bureau that the president may be relieved of irk- some legislative dutles.” ‘The resolution algo carries the fol- lowing very interesting clause which, it is understood, will be heartily in- dorsed by the executive staff: ‘“Whereas, the legislative schedule of measures already indorsed by the general federation is still heavy; therefore, be it resolved that the General Federation of Women’s Clubs in the future guard its indorsements even more strictly, adopting the trial policy for one year at least of indors- ing the principle of new measures rather than the bills in entirety.” Mrs. John D. Sherman, in her president’s report this morning, in- dicated her approval of a plan for establishing such a bureau as will be suggested by Mrs. Davis. After briefly outlining her heavy duties in connection with routine legisiative business, Mrs. Sherman said, “this work is of vital importance and must not be neglected. but it is a difficult matter for the president to do justice to the work of her office and give attention to the detail legislative work at the same time. A remedy for this condition should be worked out.” Art Gallery in D. C. Sought. Miss Josephine Junkin, director of national headquarters at Washington, has arranged an interesting, and in- structive exhibit of headquarters work which occupies a prominent place on the Steel Pier. The many ways in which the Washington office can be| of service to the member clubs throughout the country as well as to individual members are illustrated graphically. Miss Jean Frazier of Washington is in charge of the booth. It is ex- pected that the department of fine; arts will stress its drive for the es- tablishment of a national art gallery in the Capital City, which was unan- imously indorsed at the January meeting of the board of directors held in Washington. ‘The general opinion of federation women is that millions of dollurs a ear in rare art gifts of statuary and | paintings are lost to the Government imply because of lack of a place to keep them.

Council Idea Indorsed. The most important feature of the meeting of the official board of the federation yesterday morning was the statement from the National Council of Women reviewing the work of its committee on inquiry. It was pre sented by Mrs. Glen Levin Swiggett of Washington, corresponding secre- tary of the council, of which the gen- eral federation is a member organi- zation. Mrs. Swiggett stated in her report, which was received most cordially by the board, that the council idea, if it could be made to function under present conditions in the country, has Baltimore Ceurt to !mpose Sentence on Account of Whittemore Pictures.

Judge O'Dunne stated. “It is my duty to determine whether the newspapers may run the courts or whether the court may make its own rules and ad- minister them.” Nelay in pronouncing sentence was caused, he said, only because he wish- ed to determine whether the defend- ants could appeal his decision.

In the meantime, he offered the defend- ants this delay to “arrange their af- fairs,” to secure new evidence, or to, cite additional law that might change his mind. “I shall act finally and fully today one week,” was his grim conclusion. | Real Estate Sales Manager We desire to correspond with a man or woman of high caliber. who can stand on his or her own record of bt performances. capable of organizing and directing sales force and able to finance themselves. are develoning the largest cf miles from ‘act, mine Playeround. at 10 T lr‘ut. fi"x}-‘ez whove | . the_pines. ome_site <100 1i. ° Prices range from $350 and_com- most up.
