THE NEXT MOVE of the street car company should be to employ a few score persons to ride on the jitneys and refuse to donate. PREMIER HARA’S NAME fitted well in the headlines, and he received a lot of publicity, but the case of his successor, Takahashi, is hopeless. ' What of the Future? Just at a period when there is more or less dissat’Si'aclion with the Republican Administration making itself evident throughout the Nation and signs of a revival in Democratic ranks throughout the country, the Democratic party of Marion County is being held up to public inspection as in a “pitiable condition.” Partisans who for many years have cast their lot with the party of Thomas Jefferson and Woodrow Wilson are wondering what the future holds in store for their organization. This is not a situation that has come upon them overnight, but one that was brought to an acute stage by the results of the municipal elections In Indiana. Out of a registration of approximately 140,000 voters, the Democratic municipal ticket polled only about 30,000 votes, this total having been augmented by approximately 8,000 Republican votes for B. M. Ralston. This showing, it must be admitted, is a “pitiable” one. Apparently, in the municipal election, the party lost at least half of its adherents, and it is foolish to argue that it \\-as the personality of the candidates that caused this slump. We are of the opinion that the wreck of the Democratic party in Indianapolis is attributable wholly to the mismanagement of its affairs by organizations that were not fitted to their tasks. Confining the criticism to the last campaign, it may be said without fear of successful contradiction that the organization did not possess either the confidence of the Democratic voters or the confidence of thousands of Republican voters who might have been attracted to the Democratic ticket. The organization was without workers, without convincing speakers, without money and without courage to make a Democratic fight for victory. It reached the climax of a gradual deterioration that has progressed it exactly the same proportions as the organization has become enamored d\ the facilities of the Republican organization and has sought to curry favor with the Republicans. The Democratic party -will never win an election in Indianapolis as long as it bases its campaigns on the theory that it must not, by any campaign method, offend a Republican. j {<p > It will never win a campaign until it provides an issue on which it can make a campaign vigorous enough to attract attention. It will never win a campaign while it permits any newspaper to direct its chairman, supply its speakers with their speeches and limit both its candidates and orators to discussions of the propaganda that newspaper desires circulated in the community. There is no reason why there cannot be a militant Democratic party in Indianapolis, fighting always fop those things that are right and ready always to take advantage of the divisions in the ranks of the majority organization. * For four years the Democratic party here has been controlled by men who were Democratic for Republican purposes only. They have proved repeatedly that they Ifeve neither the ability nor the inclination to win elections. Isn't it about time that these Republican auxiliaries were pushed aside in order that real Democrats may be free to organize their party for the capture of majority rather than minority positions?
A Desirable Move Regardless 9 f the effort that -will undoubtedly be made to make it appear otherwise, the announced policy of Mayor-elect Shank to abolish the department of policewomen is In the interest of a better Indianapolis. Women have peculiar advantages in police work and Mr. Shank doeß not propose to fail to avail himself of these peculiarities. He is, however, proposing to take advantage of the service of policewomen without also shouldering the disadvantages that are attendant upon the maintenance of a separate branch of the police department, in the control and controlled by women. For some time, under the Jewett administration, there were women policemen functioning well. They attracted considerable attention throughout the country and were well respected at home. Then the Jewett administration undertook to repay political obligations by appointing more policewomen. Gradually the female fort* was increased and officers were selected to head it. Eventually the department grew to such a point that it constituted a branch of the police force separate and distinct from the main body of policemen. As it grew it became less efficient until recently, it was apparent to every observer of police work in Indianapolis that the city was paying about four times as much for this service as was necessary, and that other abuses were growing steadily. In recent months, the women s department of the police force has been the agency through which a few “blue bloods’’ managed to prey on young women in the community without fear of punishment. When they were caught their cases were transferred to the women's police department, where they were suppressed under the guise of saving the reputations of the girls involved. * The result was that the women police became a better agency for the protection of favored persons than for the prevention of vice. It Is not strange that certain interests in the city should be so strong in their appreciation of the women police. In nearly every instance it will be found on investigation that those who have been loud in their appreciation of the department are persons who have a personal reason for being thankful. Under Mr. Shank, it is evident, there is to be less protection of special privilege and more suppression of vice. The Hughes Proposal The sincerity of the United States in the conference on limitations of armaments can be doubted by no one following the enunciation of Secretary Hughes of this country’s program for limiting naval armaments. Ahth the proposal, the conference got off to a flying start toward the end in sight, that of relieving the peone of the great nations of the burden of maintaining top-heavy fighting equipment The proposal of the United States, in substance, is that the building of all capital ships be stopped for ten years and that a total of sixty-six such ships, either built or building, be junked within three months. This program, if carried out, would stop the waste of a race in naval armaments and would prepare the way for future limitation of naval equipment. If this program, or a similar one, is accepted a further reduction, rather than an increase, in naval strength might be looked forward to at the end of the ten-year pep^L While this program would still leave the three countries affected, the United States, Great Britain and Japan, with comparatively strong navies, they would not be so strong that there would be a temptation to use them aggressively. It would relieve all three countries of the enormous expense of increased naval construction and of the maintenance of ships aftnr they are built. It will, of course, be suggested that under this program an AngloJapanese combination would possess a superlative weapon, but it'ls hardly possible to believe that this situation has not been given proper conside r a tlon by the United States Government, which has set forth the proposal. The big thing is that the proposal furnishes a definite subject of the right sort for consideration by the conference.
NAZIMOVA IS A GREENWICH VILLAGE CAMILLE Norma Defends Yankee Ham—Frederick on View—War Movies on View
Nazimova’s Camille Is a Greenwich Village version of a famous play. Since the Nazimova production, of.“ Camille” was revealed in New York there has been mnch discussion- i-egarding.-the value of it. . • • When I saw “Camille” at Loew'S yesterday afternoon 1 realized that Nazimova has given screen patrons something to talk about. There will be a vast difference af opinion regarding Nazimova’s version of “Camille.” At the very beginning, she admits that her version is a modern one —right up to the last minUfe. She has seen fit for sonic unknown-reason' to make her Canillie a sort of a Greenwich Follies cre-ature-all paint and powder. The original Camille lived at a certain period of the gay night life, in Paris, according to the decree of the author. Alexander Dumas. Camllie to be Camille, that is the Dumas Camille, must live in her original period. Pumas' Camille does not live in 1921. A Greenwich Village Camille may exist.but not the Camille of Dumas. That's the trouble with Xazimova s exotic, weird, colorful, extravagant, supersensitive and over indulgent Camille—it is too -modern, too much of the Greenwich Follies atmosphere. Dumas Camille is a pHthetie creature, indeed, she is a heart touching child of fate. A woman with a soul hut whose flesh is too weak to protect life's most precious gem. Dumas' Camille in the last chapter is a broken wonifn. spiritually, morally, financially and even mentally. Yet she is a woman who has paid the price. I u mas' Camille compels one to sympathize with her. . Not so with Nazimova's Camille or power and paint, of poses and fluffy hair. Her Camille could live only in an overheated greenhouse. Nazimova fails to give us a Dumas Camille. She has given us a Nazimova Camille. 1 am very fond of Nazimova, both on tho stage nnd the screen but it is time that she stop posing and act. There is too much scenery about Nazimova these days. Too much purple and red and not enough of the lily white. Nazimova could hare made “Camille" the picture of the year. As if is, •'Camille" is only just one of many. Indeed. it is a most lavish production, wonderful photography, wild parties, lingering kisses, weird half gowns and iho like. It's Greenwich Village' not Dumas' Paris. Nazimova has invited this criticism because she has attempted to impersonate

The supporting -cast is as good as yazimova will let ‘ them be': RudOlpV Valentiiio. he of “The Four Horsemen” fame, is east as Armand, Camille's lover. He struggles to do the right thing, but Nazimova will not allow him to be a Dumas Armand. He must be. a Greenwich village lover. The.production is typically Nazimova—as wild as one could dream, of in the wildest dream. Even the window's of Nazimova's Camille home are round. Round windows? Yes. .Nazimova is a great artist, but she must be held in check. This is my opinion. You may enjoy Nazimova as Camille. • That is your grand and glorious privilege. 1 may be all wrong according to your idea. Who can tell? "Camille" remains on view nil week at Loew s State.—\V. D.

Henry Stephenson, Earle Foze, William Roselllc, Tyrone Power, Mile. Dazie and many, many others. "Tho Black Panther's Cub" was sug gested by a poem. "Faustine,” by Al gernnn Charles Swinburne. We are going to rely upon synopsis contained in a folder concerning the story. It is stated as follows: “A famous courtesan conducts a mag nifioant gambling house frequented by the elite of Paris. She is named Faustine, more often the Black Panther, on account of her avarieiousness and love of pompous display and poivor. “Finally, her star sets, she is closed nut by the police, and to Clive. Earl of Maudsley, she entrusts her baby daughter, born in wedlock with a country gentleman. The child is reared In luxury in an English estate and grows to womanhood. “Sir Marling Grayham, a believer In heredity, loves her, but fears to propose. Her adopted father dies and the son nnd daughter face creditors of a wasted estate. Hampton Grayhom proposes a way out of their difficulties. “Alary is coerced into posing as Faustine, and by reopening her mother's old establishment the trio hope to replenish their empty exchequer. “Count Orloff becomes infatuated with Mary nnd decoys her into an Apache's den, where he attempts an assault. A
bedraggled "woman helps him until, she recognizes her daughter. Mary. 5 Bho. is. shot while leading the rescuers, and dies in. the. halfway of the palatial mansion where once she reigned as queen. Marling and Mary then find their own happiness together.” “The Black Panther's Cub” .remains on view all week at the Ohio. -I- -I- -IPALLINE WHIPS A MAN IN “STING OF THE LASH." “The Sting of the Lash," which is Pauline Frederick’s latest starring vehicle, reminds of of the old days when melodrama was popular. In her latest movie, now on view at the Alhambra, she first appears as an Eastern society woman, then we fi-nd her out West. She marries a Westerner, who after a short time becomes an uncouth bootlegger, who allows his wife to wash for a living. (Can you Imagine Pauline over a wash tub?) She remains loyal to him and to the wash tub but he develops a tendency to horsewhip his little sister. He is a regular brute. Then Pauline becomes a regular savage and gives her husband some of his own medicine with a horse whip. After the whipping the law gets busy and sends h!m to prison for being a bootlegger. (The movies are up to date now days.) Pauline goes East and when her husband gets out of prison she decides that he is a man and takes him back. The picture ends in a love scene between the two. Although the picture is melodramatic in spots, it is interesting, the acting is competent and the cast satisfactory'. At the Alhambra all week. OFFICIAL WAR MOVIES OPEN AT ENGLISH’S. t'orp. It. H. Ingleston is successful at making an evening of official war films enjoyable. At the opening of the World War Movies at English's, last night, under the auspices of the Osrie Mills Watkins and Bruce Robison posts of the American Legion, Ingleston showed that official war movies could lie presented in an entertaining manner. The program opens with a comedy and followed by a harpist, a soloist and a female accnrdlan player. All three of these entertainers were well received last night.

Benjamin Harrison in a Prolog in which the casualty lists of I the divisions shown in the movie are re Ila ted. | This paves the way for the beginning | of the official war pictures of the United I States Government. These moving pictures show the actual work of the Amer lean soldier In real battle. The value of these pictures is that they were not made on u studio location, but were made in France, not acted, as real battle was going on. The picture has been so assembled so as not to show too much of I the gruesome side of war. When a man falls in these pictures, he actually has been injured. There were several former service men in the audience who recognized scenes and people in the picture. They were in vlted by Ingleston to speak right up and tell the audience about these scenes and they did. The movie shows the activity of Indiana lighters during the war and drives

The east includes besides Moore, Harry T. Morey, Kathyln Williams. Faire Binney, Grace Valentine and others of recognized merit. A rather imposing cast. The story is the work of Anne Steese Richardson, a person who aids in editing a magazine, and Edmund Breese. an actor of more or less prominence. The central figures of the story are the inhabitants of the home of Frederick Osborne nnd those who attempt to enter. Osborne has made considerable moey by hard work but his wife is one of those society creatures who is not too careful with whom she associates. Her bad taste leads her into the power of two adventurers who attempt to blackmail her. The story concerns the method used by the authors in bringing the wife to her senses.

Indeed he has, because Mix plays a romantic role in "The Rough Diamond," now at the Isis.

Keeping House With the Hoopers
IThe Hoopers, an average American family of five, living in a suburban town, on a limited income, will tell the readers of the Dally Times how the many present-day problems of • the borne are solved by working on the budget that Mrs. Hooper has evolved and found practical. Follow them daily in an interesting review of their home life and learn to meet the conditions of the high cost of living with them.] MONDAY. "I can’t see why you are hesitating about letting Helen join the dancing clasrk that Mrs. Chapin and those other women are getting up this winter,” said Mr. Hooper, as he and Mrs. Hooper settled down for half an hour's chat in the living-room after Roger and He.en had bade their parents good night. "You were very keen about it in the spring when she started with that other teacher." “But the way Mrs. Chapin is planning this will make it very much more expensive,’’ replied Mrs. Hooper, “and you know that we had to consider very carefully before when Helen started those lessons as to whether we could spare a0 cents a week from our advancement allowance of $3 a week, and as I understand it. the flrraaugements Mrs. Chapin is making will limit thet class to a comparatively few, and will cost each child a dollar a lesson." “And you figure that a dollar a week for Helen is out of the question?” observed Henry. "It seems quite so,” answered Mrs. Hooper, “especially in the present state of our finances and with the doctor's bill to pay T don’t feel as If I would be justified in doing it." “I suppose the doctor hasn’t sent his bill yet," said Henry. “No. he hasn't.” retorted Mrs. Hooper, "and if it doesn't come very soon I shall be sick worrying about it. If I only knew how much It was going to be I’d adjust to meet it, but I hate this uncertainty of not knowing just what 1 will be called upon to get together." “Why don't you ring him up and ask him to send it." inquired Henry. “That's what you do when the electric light and telephone people don’t send your bills on time, isn't it?” "I thought of that today when I was trying to puzzle out some way to let Helen have those dancing lessons." Mrs. Hooper replied, "but I thought I'd wait another day or two because I don't believe one hurries up the doctors as you do the gas man.” “Haven’t you some surplus in your advancement account ?" asked Henry. "We haven't had any expensive amusement and nothing lint the newspapers and the church contribution comes out of that, docs It?" ' Not usually," responded Mrs. Hooper, “but you know since Betty's illness I've had To use nearly all the balance each week for medicine and necessities for her siek room so that my surplus in that department is only about, thirty dollars." j "Well, what are you going to do with that?" queied Henry. “Can't you use some of that for Helen's lessons?” “I i-mtld." replied Mrs. Hooper, “ex- ! cept I'm figuring to pay that on the doctor's account." ; “But I thought his pay was to come j out of the savings budget, where you | must have over s.">o," was Henry's puzzled rejoinder. “Doctor bills are supposed to come out of the money set aside for advancement.

Puss Junior was oi the trolley car. the very trolley car on which little Soaphy fell. You see, our little traveler had left lus good gray horse in tiie conn try, for he had gone lame, md so Puss was obliged to continue his journey on foot. But after awhile be had come to the trolley line and had boarded a ear, and when he reached Soapbnbble Town little Soaphy Soapsuds and all her neighbors were leaning out of windows to see the son of the famous Puss in Boots. “Oh. dear me,”, sighed Puss Junior. Little Soaphy Soapsuds has come to the same sad end that Humpty Damply did." And then on w#ht the trolley ear with our little traveler, and by and by they came to the end of the line, and Puss gov off.

And after a while he came to a stile, and there stood a funny little mao with a fishing pole. “Good-day, Mr. Fisherman," cried Puss, touching his cap like a soldier. The little man looked up and smiled. "And howls my good Sir Cat?” he cried, nnd then he took a little sliver fish out of liis pocket and handed it to Puss. “Cats are fond of fish, 1 know, for certain,” laughed 'the funny little fisher man. “Y’ou are right, my good sir.” said Puss, “and your kind permission I will eat this tender little whale." and in a few minutes Puss wiped his whiskers with his pocket handkerchief, which goes to show you that the little whale had disappeared clown our small traveler's throat. “And now whither RTc you bound?" asked the fisherman. "I am on my way to see my father, the famous Puss in Boots.” answered Puss. "Come with me," said the little man. “for it is on your way. and we can talk while wc walk, and that will make the miles seem shorter."

money that is to pay your life insurance premium when it is due.” “But that has been paid for thle-year and isn't due again until March," argued Henry, "and there would be enough to meet It when the time comesr“That seems all very well,”, answered Mrs. Hooper, “but those savings are for the life insurance premium and emergencies," added Mrs. Hooper stubbornly. “Well, don't you call this doctor's bUI( an emergency,” questioned Henry. _ "Well, yes, I suppose it is, but when I have a department that 1b supposed to cover the cost of a physician and there is money in it I feel as if I should use it for that and not class it as an emergency and take It out of our savings account." “Then after making the doctor's first payment out of that surplus do you plan to pay him the balance in such small-in-taliments as will come out of that advancement budget every month T’ asked I Hynry in amazement. ! “Yes. that was my idea,"- answered ; Mrs. Hooper quietly. "But that is absurd," said Hcrxy tilfle irritably, “That would be paying hi.n less than ten dollars a month.
