French "MOUies" Fail To
Depict War Scenes True
Enough To Suit artisans

Paris, France. May 15.-Aioving pic
lures have been unequal to the occa-
sion, the press and the public declaring
that they have done little to either
portray or eXhalt patriotic sentiment
EEplOlters Of films blame the censor.
while the censor reports that producers
Of picture plays lack proper inspira-
ton. CinematOgraph directors gave a
private view Of lines exhibited in other
countries and even in some Of tho
French provincial cities. but prohibited
in Paris, TO prove their case. Among
the things to which the perfect of po-
lice objected were the scenes Of Ger
man prisoners captured in the Ninay
woods near EUernay, German prisoners
ut the camp Of Anglers. FrencA ~
lage' showing tOmbs OF German folders
after q battle. films depicting tie de-
struction of churches and villages by
fire and bombardment, besides numer-
Gus picture plays presenting soldiers
and Red Cross uniforms not in actual
service
The general opinion of the notabili-
ties invited to this representation was
that the censor was perfectly justified
in cutting out imaginary war no hos
pital scenes, holding that they were
unworthy TO represent the heroism and
devotion OF the soldiers and -urses. A
contrary opinion was held, however, re-
gardinE certain films of act-al han
penings- The result has been that the
government has authorized four repre-
sentative acknowledgement concerns TO
take moving pictures of war Genes at
the front. In the meantime moving
picture houses are depending largely
upon old films to entertain Their public,
which is gradually growing smaller.
The result Of the limitations put
upon directors Of moving picture
houses has been to give unusual promi-
nence to American films

are now in Phoenix and admit being
highly indignant and surprised. They
refused TO discuss the matter farther.
but intimated that a scorching reply
might be expected.
In his statement Gov. Hunt deplored
the example set before the rising gen.
Grafton by Case, head of the states ed
vocational system. He said there might
be some excuse for Jones. who, as pros
ecutor. had evidently become Injured to
human agony and bloodshed." He de-
plOred the example Of 'legalized muir
der, hardening back TO savagery," that
Arizona is about TO set before the
world"
The general sentiment in Phoenix is
that Gov Hunts statement was IN
called for.
