President M. A. Neff expects tc find strong opposition by exhibitors com'mited to the theory that the public wants quantity not" quality, but I from his headquarters in the Im! perial hotel, the league head is compiling statistics that :o his opinion wm convert many. When a program exceeds 4 reels, President Neif argues, eyesight is in danger. To this imperial vision is to destroy the patronage of th-e future. "Rushing the picture" begits aj haste of mind as well as of body, and! then fire panice, accidents! Sixteen minutes is the proper time 1 in which to run 1000 feet of film" says President Neff. "That allows 62 or 63 feet to the minute.

"We must discipline exhibitors whose business methods reflect dis-.f credit upon the whole hody of exhibitors. They must be prevented from bringing blindness to people, whose vision is sacrificed to the exhibitor's fear -that if he doesn't give a long and consequently junk program, that the people will go around the corner to the other fellow's place. "The motion picture manufacturers attending the convention should consider the importance of a shorter program from the point of view of excellence of produ<\itn." ? ? The figures show that 17,000 theatres are running 6 reels every night, a total of 102,000 reels. In a year's time 35,004,000 reels. I ask, where are stories to come from? Apparently illimitable as is the world of literature and fancy. Exhaustion is inevitable. Novelty cannot stand the strain. * * About 5.000 pictures were produced in the United States in the last year.
