street. This will end the first day’s film making.
“Of course this is going to be done only providing the weather is clear. Next week, probably Saturday or Sunday, the machine will be placed on an automobile and pictures made of the boulevards. When the flood waters recede pictures will be made of the manufacturing district in the West Bottoms and later interior views of the banks and other large institutions will be made.”
TO BOOM LOAN.
Subway Engineer Charles E. Phelps is devising a scheme by which a series of moving pictures may be used during the campaign to open shortly as a means of capturing the votes of Bal¬ timoreans for the subway loan to be submitted to the people at the No¬ vember election. Mr. Phelps has for some little time past been collecting numerous photographs depicting past and present conditions in various sec¬ tions of the city where the subway system has been extended by his de¬ partment, and so pleased is he with the result that he has about deter¬ mined that if these views were thrown on canvas they would prove to be the strongest kind of argument in favor of the ratification of the loans.
Providing these tentative plans of the subway engineer do not miscarry, moving picture shows will be con¬ ducted in those sections of the city where any opposition to the loans de¬ velops from the first of September until the day before election, if need be. The show, or entertainment, will be divided into parts, known as “Be¬ fore” and “After.”
The first half of the entertainment will give those who attend a practical illustration of how Baltimore’s thor¬ oughfares looked when they were honeycombed on every hand with countless wires suspended from poles in every direction. Following these scenes will come pictures of the streets as Baltimoreans see them to¬ day, devoid of the ugly wires, which proved a detriment to the streets themselves and a handicap to the Fire Department in fighting conflagrations down in the business district.
“These pictures,” said Mr. Phelps, “are bound to be interesting to every¬ body, and will show the voters in a most forcible and practical way just what my department has done and what it proposes to do with the addi¬ tional subway loan which we will ask them to ratify in November. I have made it a point to get the best photos possible, and those which will appeal most to the people. My photograph¬ ers went down in those sections where the wires were the thickest and took snap shots, and later they went over the same ground taking snap shots of the same streets on which the troublesome wires had been removed. I have made it a business to get a pretty good collection together, and when Baltimorean? see them they will be surprised,”
