CRIME WAVE IN FRANCE

Paris, Aug. 1G.-French judicial au-
horities publish figures and papers
which show that the present crime
wave sweeping over this country was
.aused mainly by the liberty children
,njoyed during the war, when the.I
fathers were in the army and thell
anothers were in factories or the NOV
les. Out of 100 crimes committed, 90
have youths from lG TO 20 years old
for culprits.
Laws to punish such crimes as muir
ders and burglary cannot be apple,
> persons under 81 years. and rarely
&c criminals below that age get pri-
son terms. Usually they are sent Z
form schools.
The influence of moving pictures o..
youngsters is exemplified by recen:

HOW PUBLIC OPERATED TELE
PHONES FAIL

Those who believe that the Stat"
or the National Government should
control all public utilities will b."
interested to know what has bee"
the result of telephone ownership II
England. The London Times sent
an expert to this country to make
Investigations, and his reports have
filled many columns of that newspS-
per. In addition an editorial sum-
mary is furnished which is highly
interesting. 1t should be promised
that the investigation which covered
the whole country took place at q
time when our service was at low
cbb. If comparisons could be made
with five years ago some results
would have been more striking By
contrast.
The Times wants the British tele-
phone business removed from gov
erngnent operation and placed under
private operation. It's argument IS
that whereas the United States has
!. the best telephone service in tho
world. that OF Great Britain IS the
worst among large nations. The ar
gunlent is rot based on theory, but
on a. plain presentation Of fact.
Thus we have our twelve million
telephones in this country, as CON-
pared with much less than a m!llio,'
IN Great Britain which has abou'
two-ffths Of the population Of tn,
country, while we are increasin"
phones at The rate CT q million an.
nually, or more than Great Brtai:'
has altogether. We have an aver.
age of. thirty million conversations
day over the telephone. or NOR
than the letters carried by post. II
factsit IS admitted that every years
development in this country ir
phones, capitalization and service
exceeds the total Of Great Britain If
the forty years of this kind of bus
ness.
We submit that the result Is !;
justification Of our present systcm
Of private ownership and contr"'
from any standpoint which ear b"
shown by official figures. What i
even much more important IS that
whereas telephone service IN Great
Britain is very slow and often impos-
sible, with US it is surprisingly az
curate prompt ana efficient. Those
who are now thinking that the rail
way should have been taken over b?
the government should ponder OF
the situation thus outlined.

ADJUSTMENTS

1t is seldom that a motion picture
is produced that has intense dramatic
power, with leading character en-
but for all that character that
gains such sympathy from the audi
ence that his depicted Staying pro-
duces almost a shock.
Yet this is the case in "The Pen
alty", which will be seen at the Palace
for two days starting tomorrow. The
picture is one of gripping power
based upon the novel Of Gouveneur
Morris
And socaking of things seldom
dore, with the unusual accomplished
in this case, one might point out that
most motion pictures based upon pop
ular published stories are disappoint-
ing. No written story or spoken plan
can hold one more intensely than the
scra,n presentation of "The Penalty.'
Lon Charey, in the role of "Bliz-
zad." g crippled human demon, is
ma .vclcua. 70 watch him one al
most forGc5s that he is looking mere
| ~ upon 4 shadow upon a mirrored
scr,,r. CLANCY is given unusually
gocd support il the presentation and
the story is told in a most thrilling
manner.
The picture deals with the life of a
master criminal whose life was ruin
ed when a boy by a bungling sur
geon, who unnecessarily amputated
both legs. "Blizzard" ruled his un.
derworld without mercy, and as a eli
nnaX to his career planned the ruin
of the city in which his own life had
been wrecked.
Among those having prominent
parts in the picture are Ethel Grey
Terry, Claire Adams, Charles Clary
Kenneth Harlan, Eduard Trebaol and
james Mason. The production was
made under direction of Wallace
Worsley.

ira and a special added attraction
