Harrlsburg, June 21. T)r. Ellis
Pnxson Obcrholtzcr will probably lose
the job of director for the Board of
Motion Picture Censors to which he
was appointed Inst October W (Inn.
ernor Sfjroul at a salary of $3000, fol
lowing the failure of the Governor to
reappoint Mm a member of the Board
of Motion Picture Censors.
Auditor General Lewis ban refused to
approve tho salary for tho office of
director because tho Legislature re
fused to make the job statutory. Since
Dr. Obcrholtzcr was dropped from the
Board of Censors he has been the storm
center of a flood of criticism aealnst
the Uovornor. Severn! Philadelphia
clergymen declared the dropping of Dr.
Obcrholtzcr was due to iufluenco exerted
by big film producers.
Cowls States Position
In a lettcrto Harry L. Knapp, chair
man of tho Censor Board, Auditor Gen
eral Lewis explained his refusal to ap
prove, Dr. Obcrholtzer's tmlarv for the
first two weeks of June as follows:
"Previous to May 31. 1021, Mr.
Obcrholfzer was paid out of tho 1010
contingent fund appropriated to your
depuntment. The iitst session of tho
Legislature passed nn act, npproved by
the Governor on Mny 25, 1021. ninend-
Ing bcctlons 11 nnd 13 of the Act of
Mny Hi, 101C, P. L. 034, thereby re
organizing nnd renrrnnglng your de
partment in the matter of employes and
salaries.
"An examination of the different
piiuts of Senate bill No. 053. which Is
the bill approved by the Governor on
.May 25, 1021, will disclobc the fnct that
the Legislature refused to include the
provision of one director at a salary of
S3U00, which Is'tho very item you now
charge to the contingent fund.
"By this procedure you would be di
rectly overriding and annulling the re
cent act of tho Legislature on this very
matter.
Not Unforeseen Item
"And, furthermore, the Attorney
General, ill hl-i opinions, has said tho
contlngfiit fund is intended to meet un
foiesecn and unexpected contingencies
that may arise in a department. This
expenditure for Mr. Oberholtzer can
not possibly be said to be an unfore
seen nnd unexpected contingency, blnco
l.c was paid by you this same salary
for this same t-ervlcc for a considerable
period before ..the passage of the 1021
amendinejitv.refe'rrcd 'to above. ! I

New York, June 21. So favorable

Mrs. Anne Urqulmrt letter Stiltmnn in
her husband's divorce milt that her nt
tornGys are preparing ngaln to amend
her answer, this time abandoning the
nfflrmntive defenso and 'substituting a
request that she be granted n divorce
from Jnmes A. Stlllmnn.
It lias been hinted wrcrnl flm.n
since the suit was stinted nenrlv a year
ago that If Mrs. Stlllman won she
wouiu iouow tins up with a counter
action for divorce, but at no time was
It suggested that both suits would bo
tried at tho same time.
..iol,n,.F. Hrcnnnn, chief counsel for
Mrs1. Stlllman, Is said now to feel his
client's, interest would be served best
by an nmalgnination of ho two suits.
The decision to do this was reached
during the Inst forty-eight hours. It Is
said, and was based on tho fnvornble
turn the suit took last week for Mrs.
Stillpian and Bnby Guy. Lnwjers who
have been following the developments
feel certain the allegations, so far as
they affect Guy, have collapsed com
pletcly.
In respect to Mr:. Stlllman, the wit

the banker's lawyers contradicted thcm
selves so much that Mr. Stlllman's rcli
rescntatlve contend they cannot under
stand how Rcfcrco Gleason con render
a decision in favor of Mr. Stlllman.
Mfs. Stlllman is known to be nnxious
personally to have tho litigation clear
in nil nhnsrft of the tane'ed domestic
situation. She has told friends that she.
harbors only pity Dicnaeu witn con

other co-respondents In the case. ,
What she wishes most to sec now Is
that James A. Stlllman be permanently
swept from her life, that the custody
of all their children, Anne. Bud. Alex
ander and Guy, be awarded to her, and
that the banker bo required to pay a
proper allowance foe twelr support.
Mrs. Stlllman Is certain that the out

sufficient alimony for her and the children,
