tons ever staged at Ye Liberty
theater. Not only is this moving pic
ture full of thrills. but it is highly
educational, depicting truthfully the
tortures which are inflicted on Grim
inal suspects in prisons to force from
them confessions Of crime. So pow
erful was this noyel and play writ
ten by Klein and so truthful in its
facts, that it caused a wave OF resent.
ment and rebellion to sweep over the
entire country and as a result the per
nicious third degree" has been large
ly removed from police work in the
large cities. Not only does the film
depict graphically this expose of in.

powerful. gripping story replete with
human interest. In addition to the
feature reel there is a comedy film en-.
titled Mrs. Casey's Gorilla" which
