‘Reform or Resigjf to Be New Slogan of Film Concerns LOS ANGELES, Feb, 15.—Elimination of “undesirables” from the film world by mennts of a vigilance committee, was suggested by Adolph Zukor, head of the large film corporation that employed ■William Desmond Taylor, and on© of the largest producers in the Industry. “The one great remedial measure that will work a correction of the moral status of our profession lie* in the appointment of a vigilance committee that will provide a safeguard for the good name of its members,” Zukor said in an Interview. “Moral preachments, good examples, and the charitable actions of many may have their good effects, but there must be something of more potent effects than these to reach the minority. “I am here to see that those few who violate the edicts of good conduct and bring discredit and embarrassment to the many are ruled, not only against, but out of the ranks. “It is not fair, to those who conduct themselves as they should that they should suffer by the ill-considered actions of others. My suggestion, and 1 shall strive zealously that It is carried out, is the appointment of a committee of vigilantes that shall work unknown within the ranks. “It Is the only safe and sane measure and I believe our great means of combatting the venomous Inroads being made Into our line of educational ano amusement endeavor.” File Involuntary Bankruptcy Petition An Involuntary petition In bankruptcy against Ozro R. and Truman A.

Harding Expects More Women in Public Life Already Has Many Feminine Callers to Debate Affairs of Importance,

Special to Indiana Daily Times and Philadelphia Public Ledger. By CONSTANCE UKEXEL WASHINGTON, Feb. 15. —“I hope there wili be more women in public life and there will before my administration Is concluded,” said the President in his Impromptu speech at a banquet here of Republican clubs recently. Perhaps that is the reason women seem to crop np in the public eye now even more prominently than heretofore. For Instance, the President's list of a dozen callers in one moaning Included the names of four women: Mrs. George M. Minor, president of the D. A. R.; Mrs. Richard Edwards, vice president of the League of Women Voters; Mrs. Thomas G. Winter, president of the General Federation of Women’s Clubs, and Mrs. Ellis Yost, legislative secretary of the W. C. T. C. But still more Important, perbops. Is the new adventure into public life of two of the most prominent wives In the Cabinet Mrs. Charles Evans Hughes, wife of the Secretary of State, has launched forth as a diplomat on her own account, and Mrs. Herbert Hoover, wife of the Secretary of Commerce, has given her first public boost to the Girl Scouts, o which she has just recently been elected national president Mrs. Hughes’ venture into Pan-Ameri-canism must not be confused with the Pan-American conference of women to be held under the auspices of the League of Women Voters in connection with their own national convention in Baltimore in April Mrs. Hughes’ announcement has to do with the women’s auxiliary committee of the United States of the second PanAmerican Scientific Congress, of which she Is chairman. That committee grew out of the scientific congress held in Washington from Dec. 28, 1915, to Jan. 7, 1916. Similar committees of women exist in all the South American conn tries. Mra. Hughes calls them together for Columbus day, Oct. 12 next, not to meet all In one place, but in the Capital of each respective country. Mrs. Hughes also has accepted the honorary chairmanship of the new international relations committee of the General Federation of Women's Clubs, of which Mrs. Horace M. Towner, wife of Representative Towner of lowa. Is chairman. An ambitious program for that committee will be announced soon. Mrs. Hoover's enthusiasm in her new responsibility as president of the Girl Scouts was voiced at a luncheon of the Women’s National Press Club, at which she was the guest of honor. She believes the growing popularity of the girl scouts will go far to offset the restlessness and careless habits now so prevalent in the growing girl. Mrs. Hoover begs for volunteers to act as captains or leaders of Girl Scouts throughout the country. A number of prominent and charming girls of Washington have only recently qualified. Os course it stands to reason that Mrs. Hoover, residing here, will cause the organization to become even more popular and populous In the national capital Mrs. Harding, too, Is deeply Interested In the Girl Scouts, having accepted the

had seven Jerseys in the gold medal list and C. M. Bottema & Sons, Indianapolis, had nine of their Holstelns above the 500 mark. SILVER MEDAL GROUP. The silver medal winners or 400 pound herds were Morgan Brothers, Chesterton, with'fifteen Holsteins; Dan Haxton, Hobart, ten Holsteins, and J. F. McCulloch, Charlestown, eight Jerseys. Bronze medal winners or 300 pound class follow: n. A. Helimich, Greensburg, fourteen Jerseys; F. H. Turner & Sons, Paoll,'fourteen Jerseys; J. P. Ice & Son, Mt. Summit, twelve Jerseys; John T. Carr, Charlestown eleven Jerseys: George Lute, Hobart, eleven Holstelns: Marcene Haxton, Valparaiso, eleven Holsteins; C. O. Prather, Memphis, ten Jerseys; George Schlosser, Jeffersonville, ten Jerseys’; E. C. Pickens, Mitchell, ten Jerseys: Whitford Brothers, Ivendallville, ten Jerseys. All these herds were in cow testing associations or on official test so that accurate records might be kept of all of them. They are especially good, when it is considered that the average Indiana \ cow produces only 160 pounds of butterfat and about 2,500 pounds of milk. The average of all cows in the cow testing associations of Indiana is 268 pounds of butterfat and 5,647 pounds of butterfat per year, which shows what the more successful dairymen are doing through the use of better breeding stock, better herd management and better feeding j practices.
