DOOMS YOUTH
Testimony SObbed Out by His
Sweetheart ConvictS William
Walters of Staying Grocer.

NEW YORK, July 2.-On testimony
given reluctantly and with tears by
his sweetheart. May Berry, seventeen,
William Walters. nineteen, was found
guilty Of murder in the first degree
by a Jury before Juuge RosalsSy in
general sessions yesterday. He is
charged with the death of Leo Ru-
ben, a grocer, on March %. We aiso
planned a general Jail delivery from
the Tombs. assisted by the Berry
girl. He will receive the death sent
ence next Tuesday.
Following his Sweetheart's testi-
Tnony. Walters whole demeanor
changed. He seemed broken in spirit
and, like Gordon Fawcett Handy, the
BROOKLYN bank robber, refused 10
permit counsel to make a defense in
his behalf The case was given to
the Jury at noon and a verdict was
returned at the end Of three hours
deliberation.
Killed For Dance Money.
Miss Berry said on the stand that
Walters confessed to her he had
murdered Ruben because he had re-
fused to give him money which he
wanted to take the girl to a dance.
She said Walters told her he did not
intend to kill the grocer, but was
compelled to because he put up
fight Walters escaped after the
murder ard was captured three
weeks later.
After he had been confined in the
Tombs for a while, Miss Berry and
Walters sister, Margaret, entered
with him upon a plan to insure his
escape and that of a number Of other
prisoners. Miss Berry admitted her
part in the attempted Jail delivery.
She said she and Walters sister
made love" to one Of the trustees in
the Tombs. who agreed to smuggle
some hscksaws to Walters.
Attendant FOIIE Plan.
The saws were delivered to the
trusty in a book by the two girls, but
an attendant noticed that something
was being passed and notified the
warden. Both girls were arrested
and the Walters girl was defiant, say
ing she would help. her brother in
any way she could. Miss Berry broke
down and told what she knew of the
plan. There were to have been sew
eral automobiles TO take the escaped
prisoners away had the scheme
worked as expected.

laboratory, planned to meet almost any demand of research, was estab- lished under the direction of Dr. Con- mandon, whose microscopic researches are now known all over the world. Pathe Photographic Division, follow ing the microscopic observations, de- vised a mechanical revealer and re- corder which has revolutionized bac- astrological research the ultra microscopic camera which has opened up universe of the invisibly small but potent things.
 For All Lands
 The amount of research work ac- complished by Pathe is comprised in a large collection of negatives, some of which are purely for professional use, but the majority of which have been taken with the sole idea of es- tablishing definite educational value to the peoples of all lands. Pathe is the pioneer in this broad, eclectic scheme.
 The wonder of the ltra-microscopic camera is that it will explore the ani- nal, the vegetable, and the mineral kingdoms-magic journeys to know ledge, fascinatingly conducted, which are both rare entertainment and valuable instruction Here, indeed, is Q field infinitely rich in marvels and strange things-a region of enchant- ment, from which young and old, the eager seeker and the blase, alike, will emerge refreshed and filled with the wonder of infinite creation. For here is a library of wonders. Herein, too, is the supreme triumph of the motion picture, which exalts it as precious gift of light and understanding.
 Finally the idea of the news cinema became definitely shaped in the mind of Charles Pathe-the idea, whose re- hection of events, has brought the people of the world into closer under standing. "Noting the success of certain topical films," MT. Pathe told me. q approached several exhibitors with the idea of having them show regularly and weekly, interesting cur rent events. If it is not going to be expensive, we'll try it. they respond ed. I then created a special organiza- ton to deal with this project. The financial result was deplorable. But I knew the bigness of the idea, and though the price I obtained for the film was insignificant, 1 continued by my efforts definitely to establish the news cinema for nearly year.

If such discovery is made then it is overnight of the imagination to predict the possibility of giving exhibition in London theatre before motion picture and smu- taneousy reproducing the performance the in a New York theatre, theatre in San Francisco and theatre in Buenos Ayres
 If step down out of the realm of actual fancy there is yet for marvellous advancement in the educational utility of the motion picture The debt which the public already to Charles Pathe is beyond apprasement The educational influence of the great work done by Charles Pathe will extend far down through coming gen. erations The time is coming, and it is near when the motion picture will be part of the acknowledged essential equipment of the common country school.

l thought that the publication had be- come necessity-indeed, twas cer- tain of it-I sent a circular to all of the French exhibitors who had con- tract for the Journal and informed them that, because the film was showing a deficit, I intended to dis continue it within a month. What I had anticipated at once happened They all protested to me to extend the Pathe Journal which after one year, 1 published twice week.
 The United States seemed to offer a most abundant field for the news and I decided, with Mir. J. A. Berst, then manager on this side of the ocean, to put the subject on the Amer ican market. Its success far ex- ceeded that in France. Then Great Britain was furnished with the Pathe Gazette and the Journal later became a popular feature in Italy, Germany and Russia. In the same manner have just started the Pathe Review, a cinematic magazine of science, travel. natural history and other educational features, which should, in my opinion, have as great success"
 And the comment of one of the writers who marked the truth of the World Idea, twelve years ago, can be read today as perfectly in the process of fulfllment.
 "Charles Pathe has taken a play thing and made it one of the great forces of the world This news cine ma, mark me, will be even a greater force toward brotherhood of nations than the most eloquent written or spoken word. Charles Pathe, with the toy of the Gods leads us into g new and wonderful era of truth and light"

 Temple of the Cinema
 Located on the Boulevard des Italiens, are the head offices of Pathe Freres, sumptuously housed in a building, which, by it's beauty and permanent character, might well be a great art museum or government of fees. Here alone in times of peace are housed some four hundred employees, a small portion of the army of nearly 10000 scattered all over the world who draw their salaries in Pathe envelopes.
 In Vincennes, the birthplace of the motion picture industry, the city which saw the early struggles of the Brothers Pathe, are several of their huge factories and studios covering an area of 28,000 square meters and employing over seventeen hundred employees of both sexes. Here are colored. by the Pathe process beauti- full pictures of travel and drama, of which the Beloved Vagabond" is such an excellent example. In these factories is also produced raw film stock amounting to over 300,000 meters a day, quantity which makes Pathe one of the principal sources of raw film material in the world.
 Other great studios are located in Montreuil-sur-Bois and Nice, and in them daily, before the war, met the greatest actors and actresses of France. At Joinville-le-Pont is another huge factory with a payroll of HOO persons, where films are developed, edited, printed, and then forwarded to all parts of the world. In Paris is still another, where are manufactured cameras and accesso- ries, employing a thousand persons. Remembering that other large fac tories are located in England Russia, Italy, the United States and other countries, as are studios and selling organizations, one finds it difficult to believe that this great organization is only about twenty years old, and rep resents the growth of an idea in the minds of two men, poor of pocket but rich of vision.

THE MAN WHO SAW

When Charles Pathe, showed Edison'e .inetoscope in France, and, seeing it's vast possibilities of development, visioned what light come in the future, he was laughed for hi- enthusiasm over the "toy." Twenty dd years later, with the news cinema estab- shed in every land, the great change O. few is reflected by recent editorial expres- ion which says: "Charles Pathe has take plsythng and made it one of the gre vices of ths world"

u. S. FOREST CHIEF
URGES new POLICY

CHICAGO. April ia national
lumber and forest policy was pro-
posed today by Col. H. S. Graves,
chief of the United States Forest
Service, speaking before the Ameri-
can Lumber Congress.
Colonel Graves advocated a COM
prehensive program OF public aid to
the lumber industry, combined with
enforcement measures. to protect the
public interest in future timber sup
plies.
Despite study OF needs Of the in
dustry by lumbermen and an increase
in its efficiency, Colonel Graves said
the great fundamental problems are
not being solved. The Industry is
still unstable, he said, labor condi-
tions are unsatisfactory, forest deple-
tion is Of increasing seriousness, and
our public forest policy is incomplete.
Points Out RefOFestatiOn Need.
Colonel Graves pointed out that
while the lumber industry has been
seeking Governmental aid along vari-
Gus lines It has failed to recognize
any obligation to provide for forest
replacement after cutting.
Forest renewal Is OF vital interest.
Colonel Graves declared, not only to
the public, but also to the owners Of
timberlands.
A comprehensive policy Of forest
development, he continued, would
make for permanent mills, place tim
Der on the market only as it is need
ed, protect the present resource,
classify the lands, encourage agricul-
ture, and secure tree growth on nom
agricultural lands.
Would Attract Settlers.
Timberlands, he said, would be
placed on a sound basis OF manage
ment instead OF a speculative basis.
and industrial plants given a per-
manent life. The resulting labor con-
ditions would attract men who want
to settle down instead OF migrate.
The public would have timber in
abundance at reasonable prices.
Graves would do this by a policy
that would afford whatever public
assistance is needed to make possible
conservative landings of forests. He
would then require fire projections,
conservative production OF lumber,
and right methods of removal with
such public direction and control as
is necessary to realize the aims de-
sired by the public"
