MOTION PICTURE MAGAZINE 167 Does Immorality Exist in the Studios? {Continued from page 80) in a field where competition is keen and criticism cutting? The writer of "Tumult On the Pacific" says "so stirred up was the town" by the looseness of the actors' lives that the managers of the Moving Picture studios "have agreed, as a consolation for the ruin they caused, to stick on every film 'Made in Los Angeles.' " He does not even read carefully the newspapers from which he obtains his "facts." So far from right is he that I am angered at my inclination to reply to his attacks. The managers did nof agree, as a consolation, to advertise the city on their films ; they were earnestly asked to do so by a committee, of which Mayor Charles E. Sebastian and representatives of the Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce were members. It must be a sorry world in which the writer lives. He sees his brothers and sisters weak, pitiful creatures, unable to work out their own salvation ; like the censorship gentlemen, he believes that some one like himself is needed to guard them against themselves. But, to be logical, he should be concerned equally in getting some one also to guard him against his own morbid mind, his inability to see good in any one except himself. As I said at the beginning, his excoriation is like "charging" the world with being imperfect ; there is no answer. The world goes ahead and progresses toward the better. In the same way Los Angeles has gone ahead, and continues to thrive from the many benefits brought to it by the Motion Picture industry. Boston Garter Take Home A New Pair!
