MOVIE MEN OPPOSE
CENSORSHIP MEASURE
win Offer Substitute Bill Eliminating
Admittedly Objectionable Feat
urcs of Some Films.
FAVOR LOCAL SUPERVISION.
Picture Men From All Over State
Meet Here in Protest--Wiu Move
on the Capitol To-day to Head on
Proposed Law.

Members of the Virginia Motion
Picture Exhibitors league, called to-
sether hurriedly to consider the penc-
ing motion picture censorship bill now
before the general assembly, held two
sessions yesterday and decided to
offer a compromise bill with view
to eliminate, without additional cost,
the admittedly Objectionable features
OF some films now shown in the state.
They hope to have hearing some
time today before the senate commit
tee on social and moral welfare or
before 81 joint session of the commit
tees OF both houses.
The house bill has been favorably
reported and is on the calendar for a
second reading.
The exhibitors are practically unani-
nous In agreeing that some kind of
censorship Is necessary They pro-
pose that law be passed providing
that only such films as can be shown
end have been approved by The asso-
citation known as the National Board
of Reviewers OF Motion Pictures. or
by some board of censora or Ssview-
ers created by the law of some other
state.
A bill embodying this idea has been
prepared and will be urged upon the
legislature in the place of those
already under consideration.
Representatives of producing COM
panies wholly disagree with the ex-
hibitors about the desirabilIty of any
sort of restriction except as may be
imposed by police authorities of the
cities where the films are shown. The
following companies were represent
ed: Metro, Mutual. Pathe, Fox Film
corporation, Goodwin Picture corpora
ton. Triangle. Universal. Paramount.
General Film company, and tha> GEN
cral National exhibitors.
About one hundred members OF the
league were present, representing
every city and town In the state, in
some instances from two to Ave or
more delegates being present from one
city.

Alleged Bullying Of
Soldier by Lieutenant
Related in Dispatch

London. Jan. 29.-The Weekly Dis
patch has had it's attention drawn 10
the alleged astonishing treatment OF
q discharged soldier suffering from
she'll shock in an acute form.
The man was q private in the First
SpCrtsman's (Twenty-third Royal Fu-
siiiers)M battalion. He enlisted in Octo-
Der, 1914, and went to France the rol-
lowing year. In May he was wounded.
although not seriously, at Souche1.
and received hospital treatment with
out being brought to England. At
Grandecourt in November last year
he was buried by shell, while at
practically the same time his two
bi others close by were killed by ma
chine gun fire.
The soldier in question was not ex-
tricated from the hole in which he
hae been buried until the following
night. Brought across to England
with shell shock In its worst form.
he underwent hospital treatment for
considerable time, and was finally
discharged from the service In July
with a pension OF twenty-one shil.
lings a week for six months.
Last week, his nension having to- be
reassessed, he was ordered to at
tend a medical board In the West
End of London to undergo another
examination. This Is the account of
what happened:
What do you do for a living?'
asked the examining officer. lieu
tenant. The ex-soldier told him he
received a little support from his
parents. and. with his pension, was
able to exist. Don't you feel
ashamed of yourself?" asked the
officer. II do not think there is very

soldier. to the most inexperienced eyes
suffering very badly from shell shock
said he could not help it. DO you
think you get these tremors when
you are alone?" said the officer, 'or
dc they only come when you have to
appear before a medical board?"
This hrowheating went on for
about twenty minutes. at the end of
which time the officer said: We'll,
you will have to go into home for
she'll shocked soldiers. Personally
think you are exaggerating your
compliant"
A representative of the Weekly Dis
patch has since seen the soldier. He
IL afflicted with shell shock I'm an ex-
trcmely serious form. The twitehinc
of the hands, hestitancy of speech and
general nervousness all testify to the
genuineness of the mans complaint.
Genuine shell shock Is an afffiction
which requires careful. sympathetic
treatment, and methods such as are
employed at certain medical breads
are anything but helpful.
We are informed by the soldier
that he does not want TO enter
home; he would much prefer to live
with his own people. a sentiment
which few people will be disposed to,
disagree with. The probable penalty
for this is, of course. the loss of part
of the pension. but IL is 10 be hoped,
for the sake OF ordinary justice. that
the man will not be go penalized
