Art---Movies---Censorship
"a\re Movies Art I" asks a loading magazine on its front cover; and, in
side, two writers discuss the question from different v._-wpo4nta.
It seems to us that movies niv not yet ait. Hut they bare ■ fair chance ol
baooming art it' the silly censorship under which they now operate is relaxed,
or, better, abolished. With the so-called "national hoard of censorship"
there is small quarrel, beeaUM this is engineered by the movie men themselves
and they have only to say the word to abolish it.
But worse than criminal are the state and city censorships, under which
some of the best picture! ever filmed have been kept from many states and cit
ies, and other pictures have been cut and chopped until there is little left.
Chicago refused to permit the screening of Upton Sinclair's ".Jungle."
.And many cities, including Tacoma. have not yet seen a great civil war film
play that is already BO famous it needs no advertising in this column.
►Shakespeare could not have written his tragedies and comdeies under a
censorship; Dickens would have been damned) Harriet, Beecher Btowe would
have been silenced.
No great art can be produced under the club of the police.
Movie censorship does NOT prevent the showing of immoral films, which
is the objectl its proponents assert is accomplished.
And censorship is not needed to prevent filmed Immorality—there are
pleniv of laws providing punishment for lewdness either in picture or speech.
ANY KIND OF CENSORSHIP IHUN-AMERICAN.
What the Sinn Fein Movement Is
The Sinn Fein movement 1 that has rocked Ireland into a state of open rc
yolt is nun sectarian and fortius reason has rallied to its standards every class
of Irishmen, The Ulster movement —which planned revolt by force of arms
against British rule (and which proved a failure) aligned protestants against
Catholics.
The Sinn Keinists are Irish nationalists and their aim is for home rule and
national life, apart from Oreat Britain's dominion.
At first this movement was coldly intellectual.
Now it has spread like a prairie fire, and every class of irishman is join
ing the movement.
Authorities agree thai tlie original Sinn Feiners were not German sympa
thisers. But it is DOW charged that secret agents of Germany have provided
funds and other means of spreading the propaganda of disloyalty to Kngland
and from a society that held Itself in a cold attitude of disapproval of Eng
land's war policy, the Sinn Fein has become a dangerous menace to the home
government'h program in its war against the central powers.
Make the Income Tax Thieves Pay
PREPAREDNESS MUST BE PAID FOB.
it is going to cost nearly TWO HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS this
rear.
The only Question now is: "WHO WILL PAY THE BILL!"
Basil Manly's investigation of tho United states Income tax frauds ;is
published in thil newspaper, shows where all of the needed millions and more
can he raised without resort to new taxation and without burden to any honest
man.
I!' Secretary McAdoo will collect any substantia] part of the $390,000,000
ineomo tax which annually is being evaded, the entire preparedness bill can
be paid quickly and easily.
The nation's answer to the demand for more revenue preparedness must
be: "MAKE THE TAX THIEVES PAYTHE PREPAREDNESS BILL."

MY MTTIaK BOOK IB
MY BATiANCK WHKKI.
When Oli'k called _M up today
(I wonder if 1 have told you, lit
tle book, that he had a telephone
installed right near my bed with
s long cord ho that I could talk
from any purt of the room or out
on the i in-liiHi-il porch) I said to
hi in, "Come up and upend the
evening with me, If you have
nothlug better to do."
"I never have anything better
to do," was the answer, but there
was no enthusiasm In the voice.
"I meant, Dick dear. If you had
nothing you would rather to do."
"Whit time do you waut me?"
waa the question that came hack.
"Can you come to dinner?"
Titers was a slight hesitation,
and then, "I'm awfully Borry,
Margie, I've a liuslnesa dinner en
gagement with a couple of men
from out of town, but I can get lv
at aliout ten o'clock, if \ou need
me."
"Look here. Dick," 1 replied,
"I don't need you and 1 don't
want you to ever feel that you
must hreak any engagement for
me. I thought if you hail noth
ing else to do we might have a
little visit. Mrs. Selwin says you
upend 1"Ih of nighte over in your
room alone.
"Well, 1 have had many busi
ness problems to work out late
ly."
"Aud no others?"
"Oh 1 expect every man has a
few old problems of his own
favorite brand that he takes out
and turns over in his mind when
he has nothing better to do."
"All right, dear," 1 called back,
"remember I'll be mighty glad to
have you come in the first even
ing you have a minute to spare."
"I'll come tomorrow night,
Margie, and if you are not asleep
when 1 come home tonight, I will
drop In. Good-bye dear."
Of course, you know, little
book, that, being a woman, I just
turned my face to the wall and
shed a few tears after that talk
over the telephone. And I knew
Dick did not feel any more com
fortable than I did, for late in the
afternoon there came by special
messenger a beautiful box of
roses.
Poor old Dick, he does not
know what to do with me. I am
the first problem that he has ever
had that he cannot work out or
get rid of.
I.ike the man he is, he is doing
the best he can, bless _im! ajid I
feel much sorrier for him than I
do lor myself.
I had to smile a little over his
roses, although a tear or two ran
down BU ch'erks, for 1 thought
how typical of man was this gift.
Whenever a man feele sorry
for a woman he gives her some
thing. Whenever a man hurts a
woman he gives her something.
Dick feels so sorry for me that
I am sure any thought of me Is a
painful one. and when he found
that he could not be with me this
evening ho, sent flowers. During
all our married life we have never
had a misunderstanding that he
has not brought me home some
gift when his anger cooled.
.Most of my jewels 1 received
during his experience with El
eanor Fairlow.
In some way, little book, 1 am
not very fond of jewels.
Donna Tenney told me that all
the rings she ever received from
Bill, except her engagement ring,
she knew were given her as con
silnie offerings and she was able
pretty fairly to guess by the value
of the jewels the seriousness of
the wrong he had felt he had
done her.
Donna's collection of rings Is
most wonderful!
Isn't it queer, little book, how
my mind runs away with me
when I come to talk with you?
Hut I must say that you are
my greatest comfort. Principally,
1 think, because I am absolutely
honest with you. And then you
are a habit with me-the most
deep seated one I have.
I began this little confession to
you with the transcription of my
talk with Dick. I told you or the
smiles and tears it caused. Then,
as my thoughts wandered, you got
them all.
By doing this I have worked
myself into a calmer mood. I
thought when I commenced to
write that 1 could not possibly
live through the day without
knowing I was going to have
long talk with Dick tonight, and
