Hays, the Conference Committee representing the producing and distributing ends of the motion picture industry opened a joint session behind closed doors at Hotel Biltmore today, at. which a far- program for reforming industry in all of its branches is to be mapped out.

These reforms will be of a sweeping rature, if carried out, the moving ture men say. They will include, Mr. Hays announced. program of making the movies clean from a morality standpoint, the drafting of a more equitable term of contract between the exhibitors and producers and pressing demand on the part of the moving picture theater owners for 3 reduction in the rental prices of Alms. The majority of theater owners present said that the most vital of all the problems be discussed was the one relating to the price reduction for film rentals.

They pointed out that the theater owners are experiencing a business slump due to existing economic conditions which demanded in turn that the producer meet the situation by cutting their returns from film rentals. This conference will be the first real test of Mr. Hay's leadership, as at present the relations between the exhibitors and producers are badly strained. Both sides are hopeful that Mr. Hays can bring about harmony.

About 35 representatives of the industry attended the meeting.

Carlton Ave. Residents Cannot Sleep for Heavy Trucks They Tell City Fathers. On the ground that the noise of heavy trucking at night in their formerly quiet street kept them from sleeping, 200 residents of Carlton ave. today demanded, of the Aldermanic Committee Thoroughfares that it recommend the repeal of the ordinance adonted lust year, transferring from the Boro President to the Park Commissioner jurisdiction over Cumberland between Myrtle and DeKalb aves. By this expedient that portion of Cumberland st.

became a part of Washington Park and trucking was eliminated from it-to be verted to Carlton ave. It was a well-dressed crowd, but no more belligerent delegation of citizens ever visited the City Hall. At one time ex-Alderman August Ferrand, former Republican minority leader of the Municipal Legislature and the author of the "sleep destroying' ordinance, was in danger of corporeal punishment. He tried to pour oil on the troubled waters. Emil Lazansky, one of the leaders of the delegation, declared that if the ex- Alderman didn't keep quiet he, Lazansky, would "hit him in the jaw." When the committee finally got down to business, Mr.

Ferrand, a considerably excited, exclaimed that in justice to himself the hearing in the matter should be nostponed. "This is not a public hearing," he declared, "because only side is represented. This hearing was never advertised and the first I knew of it was when on Saturday while was standing at the corner of De Kalb and Carlton aves. a big poster was shoved under my nose announcing that a delegation of residents of Carlton ave. would appear before this committee today to urge the repeal of the ordinance in question." Alderman John O'Rourke, chairman of the committee, sided with Ferrand.

He said that a public hearing in the matter could not be held until it had been advertised as the law required. so that those in opposition as well as those in favor of the repeal of the ordinance could be heard. However, when Chairman O'Rourke suggested a postponement of the hearing until next fall, there was almost a riot. Somebody shouted: "We can't do without sleep for three months longer." This cry was taken up by most of the men and women present. Uttered in chorus and repeated several times it sounded really formidable.

Chairman O'Rourke immediately put 011 the soft pedal. "Well, well," said he, "since sO many of you are here the you have got to say. But I warn you committee might as a well hear what that a public hearing as defined by law must be held before the committee 011 thoroughfares can take any action in the matter." Alderman Howard Fenn, Democrat, of Brooklyn, told O'Rourke that he had notified him of today's hearing tome time ago, and insisted that the proceedings be not broken off short, in View of the fact that so many people had come to the City Hall on account of it. Cornelius Fleming a school principal. stated that last night while he lay in bed and could not sleep on count of the heavy trucking traffic beneath windows and the "galloping ambulances 011 the way to the Cumberland Street he felt the house tremble and his bed shake.

"The reason for these He said, that in Carlton ave. the asphalt is laid over the old cobblestone. The cobblestones communicate the shock of the heavy trucking traffc to the buildings on both sides of the street. and thus people are disturbed in their sleep." He asserted that the objectionable ordinance was "sneaked" through the Board of Aldermen, but this was hotly denied by Chairman O'Rourke, who said the measure had been pending in the of Estimate for three months before it was sent. to the Aldermen for concurrent action.

Mr. Ferrand tried to get in a word now and then. but he was cried down by the audience, one woman exclaiming: "What has he got to do with it -he is no longer an Alderman!" Thomas A. Stritch said it was unfair to send the heavy traffic from Cumberland st. to Carlton where it had caused an "awful lot of annoyonce." The principal point made by these and other speakers.

which included George Divine and Jerome Bock, was that the residents of Carlton ave. had. not been given an opportunity to oppose the adoption of the ordinance. Chairman O'Rourke announced that he would arrange for an advertised public hearing in the matter in the near future, so that both sides would have a chance to be heard.
