SEEKING WORLD PEACE
WASHINGTON, Nov. 20. (/^—De
claring the United States, Great Bri
tain and Japan still reserve to them
selves the right to resort to war for
maintaining their rights and securing
their interests, the Federal Council of
Churches in an Armistice Day mes
sage called on all the great nations of
the world to set up effective agencies
for settlement of international dis
putes by arbitration.
The message, which is being sent to
thousands of congregations over the
country calling for observance of Sun
day November 21, and of the entire
week in behalf of world peace, declar
ed many European nations were
“ahead” of the United States in their
pledges not to resort to war and un
less progress were made toward a
general arbitral code the alternative
would be “ever increasing competi
tive preparation for war and recurring
wars.”

EIGHT REEL COMEDY
SUNDAY IT LIBERTY
"Make ’em laugh,” says Johnny
Hines, First National’s latest star, and
the hero of “The Live Wire,” which
comes to the Liberty theatre Sunday.
"The screen is literally flooded with
I
productions having as their basis only
marital and domestic troubles, com
mented the dynamic Hines recently.
“Give the public the seamy side of
life, show them their foibles, but mix
it up judiciously with the proper
amount of comic relief and you have
the recipe for an enjoyable produc
tion.
"The average moviegoer wants to
be entertained for the hour he or she
attends a motion picture performance
and if given their choice between a
good comedy and a complicated do
mestic drama, the chances are they
will generally choose the former.
Life i;s too hard a proposition to
spend much time watching the troub
les of others. We want to forget the
things that are worrying us, we want
to laugh, we want to give our imagin
ative selves a chance to live and
function. And because motion pic
ture comedies are in a measure able
to meet that desire, hordes of people
the world over gladly flock to see the
good comedies of the screen.”
