TEST RIGHTS OF
IE"
CENSORS
Film Manufacturers Start Suits
Against New Board.
TWO REASONS ASSIGNED.
Two Reasons Assigned By the Com
panies For Which the Board
8houdd Be Declared
Unconstitutional.
Harrlsburg. The anticipated tent of
the validity of the act creating the
Btate Hoard of Censors for moving
picture films was begun, when equity
ults by the Buffalo Drancb, Mutual
Film Corporation, and the Mutual Film
Corporation of Pennsylvania and Inter
state Films Company, were filed In
Common Pleas Court No. 6, Philadel
phia. The two suits were filed by
Ceo. Qulntard Horwltz, representing
the complainants. Both complainants
are encaged In the exchange business,
the Buffalo Branch having its princi
pal business in Buffalo, while the other
companies conduct a large portion of
their business in Philadelphia,
Two Reasons Assigned.
Two reasons are assigned by the
complaining companies for which the
act establishing the censor board
should be declared unconstitutional.
They are:
"First, that It Imposes them in a
manner wholly beyond the police
powers possessed by the General
Assembly of the Commonwealth,
the legal duty, as a condition pre
cedent to the rights of your orators, to
rent films, reels and stereopticon
views, of first obtaining the approval
of the defendants to the films, which
approval, under the terms of the act,
may be withheld by the defendants, If
In their unlimited judgment and dis
cretion, formed without hearing what
soever and without the right of any
appeal therefrom, said films are
sacrilegious, obscene, indecent, Im
moral, or such as tend to corrupt
morals.
"Second, The making or the renting
of said films or reels without such ap
proval on the part of the defendants Is
unlawful, because your orators are de
prived of their right to pursue a law
ful business or calling; of their right
or freedom of contract and also of
their property without due process of
law and without the equal protection
of the laws."
J. Lewis Breltlnger, as chief censor,
and E. C. Nlver, assistant censor, con
stitute the board.
Start Third Suit
A third suit to have declared invalid
the censors' act was started by Albert
E. Brown, William Sachsenmaler, and
Vernon It. Carrick, trading as the
Overbrook Theater, against Mr. Brelt-
inger and It is assistant. The com
plainants in this case are exhibitors.
To enforce the provisions of the act
at this time, the censors would be
denying the exhibitors the right to test
Its legality, It is averred.
Virtually the same legal questions
as raised In the manufacturers' suit
are contained in the proceedings be
gun by the exhibitor. The latter also
ask for an Injunction against the cen
sors to restrain them from enforcing
the provisions of the act, and for a
decree invalidating the art.
The Court will grant an early hear
ing of the capes.

UNITED STATES
TO SERVE
WORLD
President Says Navy is An In
strument of Civilization.
TALKS TO THE MIDSHIPMEN.
Pays High Tribute To the Boys At
Vera Cruz and a Higher One To
Fletcher The Girls Retain the Dis
carded Caps.
CITY AGRICULTURISTS
Annapolis, Md. President Wilson
was given a royal reception here Fri
day, on his arrival to address the 164
members of the Naval Academy gradu
ating class and to present the sheep
skin to each graduate. His indirect
allusions to the Mexican crisis made
a profound Impression. He elicited
great applause when be said that the
United States Navy and its big fight
ing machines represent a humane serv
ice, rather than any desire to fight on
a slight provocation. In his only refer
ence to the Mexican affairs be took oc
casion to highly praise Admiral
Fletcher for the diplomatic and hu
mane manner in which he has handled
the complicated situations that have
confronted him, and added: "I have
learned to admire him more and ap
preciate bis great worth as I have
watched carefully bis tender and kind
treatment of the people who were wont I
to fear and distrust Americans."
He referred to the service being
rendered at Vera Cruz by the soldiers
and sailors. It has been necessary to
use some force there, said be, and
after a moment's pause and with
bowed head, his hands tightly gripped
together, he said, slowly:
"I pray God that it will not be
necessary for use to use any more
force down there."
Not For Conquest
The President said, in part:
"It ought to be one of your thoughts
all the time that you are sample
Americans, not merely sample Navy
men, not merely sample soldiers, but
sample Americans, and that you have
the point of view of America with re
gard to her Navy and her Army; that
she is using them as the Instruments
of civilization, not as the instruments
of aggression. The idea of America
Is to serve humanity and every time
you let the Stars and Stripes free to
the wind you ought to realize that
that Is In Itself a message that you
are on an errand which other navies
have sometimes forgotten; not an
errand of conquest but an errand of
service. I always have the same
thought when I look at the flag of
the United States, for 4 know some
thing of the history of the struggle
of mankind for liberty.
"When I look at that flag It seems
to me as If the white stripes were
strips of parchment upon which are
written the rights of man, and the
red stripes the streams of blood by
which those rights have been made
good. Then in tho little blue firma
ment in the corner have swung out
the stars of the States of the Ameri
can Union. So it is, as it were, a
sort of floating charter that has come
down to us from Runnymeode, when
men said, 'We will not have masters;
we will be a people and we will seek
our own liberty.'"
