ARRIVALS.
The United Artists Corporation declares that the proper permits had been obtained from the proper officials of Kanagawa prefecture following the regulation police censorship, and that according to the censorship laws the picture was therefore permitted to be exhibited in any theatre in that prefecture. Since the Kamagkura theatre is in Kanagawa prefecture, the permit was applicable in this case.
When the permit was shown to LATEST SHIPPING NEWS. the Kamakura police upon their arrival to issue the injunction, the officers

CONVERTING STEAMERS TO MOTOR SHIPS.
The possibilities of an interesting new development in connection with-shipping, are-referred-to-in- last month's Motor Ship, where it stated that arrangements have been made by the Netherland Steamslúp Co., to convert a 10,000 ton steamer to a motor vessel. This ship was only built in 1916, and the owners have apparently decided that owing to the remarkable economy of the oil-engined vessel, it is desirable to incur the heavy ex- pense of conversion. In America, eight large steamers, originally owned by the Shipping Board, varying in tonnage from 5,000 to 12,000, are also being converted by the installation of oil engines. It is estimated that at present-day prices of oil and coal, a saving of between £8,000 and £10,000 per annum, can be effected in the fuel bill, by converting a 10,000 ton 112-knot steamer to a motor ship. In this connection it is interesting to note that the retiring Chainman of the United States Shipping Board has publicly announced that as a result of the experience of the Board, it is found that a motor ship has an advantage of roughly 25 per cent, over the steamer in operating
costs.

INDICTMENT OF STAGE MORALS.
Stand
Wes Georgie Wood, the popular music-hall artist, whose scathing indictment of stage morals raised such a chorus of disapproval, has apologised for “overstepping the [mark," and has voluntarily faed.
himself £15.
Speaking of his address to the Manchester Rotarians and the storm of protest that followed it, Wee Georgie said to an intér- viewer-
"We are all inclined sometimes to do a thing in the wrong way. I can only apologise unreservedly and withdraw all my statements."
The comedian explained that his desire had been to offer at what he thought a private assembly friendly warning against young girls entering the choruses of cheap and bogus revues.
When he said," it is almost im- possible for an actress to get on and remain as you like your wp- men to be," he had, in his mind many amateur stage-struck girls who drifted into bogus revues and then found themselves stranded in a hopeless position.
"I do not think I made my point as clearly as I should have done," he added, "because I was talking without notes and was trying to. make the talk entertaining.
"I specifically exonerated the real professional actress, but I feel. now, especially in view of the widespread comments ny remarks. have caused, that it has been a case of fools rush in where angels fear to tread.'.
"I suppose I had a little idea, not knowing I was talking to the whole of England through the Press, of suddenly making myself a IC former instead of being content to be a performer," concluded "Wee". Georgic.
In a telegram to a London news- paper, Wee Georgie said :-
'My Rotary speech was full of qualifications and exceptions, that have not been reported. I cherish the honour of my profession so dearly that I applogise and unre- | servedly withdraw all statements. "I have fined myself £15 for theatrical charities for my indis- cretion."
In his address to the Rotarians, the comedian is reported to have said
'People can tell you what they like but the immorality on the stage is appalling."
"It is practically impossible for a girl to be what she ought to be, In my profession-practically Im possible for her to be what your men here would like her to be, if she goes on to the stage. This sounds very serious to you, It sounds, a dreadful accusation to make against the girls of my call- ing, but I want to tell you that they are driven to it.

"I have no relations on the stage. All my people are respectable, thank heaven. Once you get on. the stage it is like love or the 'flu' It has got you. There is something akin to the feelings of the dope" fiend in it. On the stage you have those same moments of clation the drug fiend craves for and experiences.
Take another aspect of life on thè stage-the occasions when we are called upon to simulate love. It is almost impossible for an actor night after night to play at love without feeling it. If you play with emotion it will play with
you.
ONLY A CLOAK Georgie Wood went on
The average wage of a chorus girl was, he said, about £3 per week. Out of this she had to provide lodgings and dress decent- ly outside, no matter how iné decently while on the stage; pay railway fares, and provide for vacant weeks.
"Do you wonder these girls use our profession as a cloak?” ho asked
These girls are called actresses, said Wee Georgie, “but they could nct act a block of ice in Uncle Tom's Cabin.""
With regard to actors, Mr. Wood said their morals were a little better than would be the morals of the average man under such circumst ances. It was said that an actor had a wife and family in every town, as a sailor had a wife in every port.
