HIGH PAY. LOW PRICES. GOAL OF BOYNTON MOORE G. 0. P. Mayoral Candidate Promises Board Jobs to Unemployed. Boynton J. Moor?, candidate for the Republican nomination for mayor, spoke last night at 701 South Meridian street and detailed the points in his platform. He said, in part; “I believe in high wages and low prices which can be achieved through the removal of political parasites and reduction of public utility rates. “If nominated and elected, my board appointments will be made from among the unemployed. “I possess a keen appreciation of the city’s needs.” Charging that a minority group of five self-constituted bosses were attempting to cram a slate of handpicked candidates down the throats of Democratic voters, Chalmer Schlosser, candidate for the Democratic nomination for judge of superior court room 5, at a meeting last night at 744 Virginia avenue, said in part: “Roosevelt stands for anew deal in government and we must have a new deal in Democratic politics. Our party stands for a clean primary, but these men who have been wallowing in the sop of special favors would traduce the principles of the party in a vain attempt to nominate their hog-tied, Jellyfish candidates. They will not take heed to the lessons learned when the Republican party attempted to do the same in that party. Speeches in behalf of George S. Dailey. Democratic candidate for nomination as prosecuting attorney,

CHURCH IS DOOMED, EPISCOPALIANS TOLD Russian Example Ciled hv Educator Who Demands Changes. ftp United Press PHILADELPHIA. April 19. A warning that the Episcopal church, if it does not mend its ways, may “have to be blotted out, as it was in Soviet Russia,” was given at the sixtieth annual Protestant Episcopal church congress in session here. “The church is in danger of becoming one of the greatest obstacles in the realization of the kingdom of God,” the Rev. Dr. George A.

Prince Ernst von Starhemberg is destined to become his chief aid. as vice chancellor, and Major Emil Fey to take over the duties of minister of public security and interior.

‘Through the Centuries’ Ranks as Great Educational Film

BY WALTER D. HICKMAN A SPLENDID and intelligent example of how the serten may be used for educational as well as entertainment purposes is revealed in “Through the Centuries,” which shows the growth of the Catholic church and the march of civilization. At a preview yesterday at the Emerson theater, where it is being presented today as part of the regular program, it was easy to see that “Through the Centuries” was a cleverly assembled picture. The early scenes show Jesus and the birth of Christianity. The crucifixion scene has been impressively and dramatically handled. The picture then takes up the mission of the missionaries in spreading Christianity. The idea of the movie is to show the march of Christianity from the viewpoint of the Cathoiic church. There is entertainment in seeing great works of art and the scenes showing the priceless art collections of the Vatican makes this picture one of fine entertainment value. I never have seen the splendors of the Vatican photographed as clearly and as beautifully as in "Through the Centuries.” Much footage has been given to Pope Pius and his activities. He is shown visiting the radio station in Vatican City, riding in an automobile, at prayer, and blessing the multitude. The movie concludes w T ith the history of the centuries by showing what the Catholic missionaries, priests and members of the sisterhoods have accomplished in Alaska, Africa, China and South America. tt a a ''"T'HE scenes showing the work -I- accomplished among many lines in China and the leper colonies are tremendously interesting. This drama was written by Francis X. Talbot, S. J., and the narrator is Pedro De Cordoba of the

legitimate stage whose voice records beautifully. The musical background is full of great beauty and reverence. This picture is to be considered as educational theater, and as such it is a splendid example of what may be accomplished on the talking screen. Regardless of one's church affiliation, every one will be able to en-joy the great treasures of the Vatican, as well as receiving a store of knowledge. Arrangements are being made for a downtown showing.. a a a Hale Mac Keen Resigns IT became known today that Hale Mac Keen. director for the last three years of the productions of the Civic theater at the Playhouse, has resigned and that his resignation has been accepted by the board. When Mr. Mac Keen finishes directing “The Devil Passes” which will be presented for an engagement starting Tuesday, April 24, he will relinquish his post. “In the next program,” Harold Thorp, president of the board, said today, “the resignation of Mr. Mac Keen will be announced and the regrets of the board stated. “Last spring Mr. Mac Keen made it known that he would serve only one more year and from then on we have had a change of directors in mind. “Several applicants are being considered by the board but as yet no decision has been made.” Since Mr. Mac Keen has been here, he has built up a splendid box office draw and to accommodate the crowds the engagements of several plays this season were extended over the scheduled run. Mr. Mac Keen has not announced what he will do in the future. a a a In City Theaters Today INDIANAPOLIS theaters today offer: “Gambling Lady” at the

Circle; “Dancing Honeymoon" on the stage and "Jimmy, the Gent" on the screen -at the Lyric: “Sin of Nora Moran” at the Ambassador; “Melody of Spring" and “One Is Guilty" at the Indiana; “Looking for Trouble" at Loews Palace; and “Bottoms Up" at the Apollo.
