USE Of FILMS
DISCUSSED AS
HELP To TRADE
Manufacturers and Movie Men
Meet Here to Map Out
Plans.

Use OF motion pictures in the
American industrial world for the de.
velopment of foreign and domestic
commerce was discussed with con.
siderable thoroughness at a confer
ence between the National Associa.
ton of Manufacturers of America
and representatives. of practically all
the producers OF industrial films, in
the Willard Hotel today.
At the conclusion of the confer
ence a committee was appointed by
the association to receive a written
prospectus and program from the
motion picture producers.
Plans outlined.
In a letter to the assembled mem.
bers of the association, j. Il. Edger-
ton, president of the organization,
who was absent because of illness,
urged the adoption of motion pic
lures as a medium of developing and
stimulating trade. He recommend
ed INSTALLATION of the industrial
processes, progress and supremacy
of American manufactures as the
surest way to improve business, this
being the simplest form of education.
II. Foster Balm, OF the Bureau of
Mines, told the extensive use made
of motion pictures by that bureau
to spread the gospel of safe mining
operation. Or. Kline, head of the
Bureau OF Foreign and Domestic
Commerce, of the Department of
Commerce, said joint board of
motion picture production and dis
tribution had been formed by his
department and the Bureau of
Mines, and that the Government is
on the eve of going into the motion
picture distributing business on a
wholesale scale to develop American
trade. He told of numerous in
stances in which motion pictures
shown in foreign countries had
helped American trade-such as in
creased demand for American-made
clothing and automobiles In South
America, where the field had been
dominated by Europeans.
Benefits Discussed. 4
j. c. Blanchard, representing the
United States Reclamation Service,
discussed the beneficial use made of
motion pictures, as did a representa-.
tive OF the General Electric Com
pany, w. A. Baldwin. of the Ameri-
fcan Locomotive Works: c. j. Dris-
coll. of the American Lace Manu-
facturers Association, and several
others.
NJ. ]. Cohn, appearing for the ex-
hibitors' fundw. explained the details
of a plan which he said had solved
the problem of distributing industrial
films for the producers, exchange
men and exhibitors. c. II. Moore
and Representatives of the Fox Film
Corporation and other makers OF in
dustrial films made brief remarks
explaining their qualifications and
equipment, and on the suggestion OF
one of the motion picture men n com.
mittee was appointed by the associa-
ton to go more thoroughly into the
matter and recommend a concrete
in industry.

Work Is One Remedy. .

To this estimate of the cheapest
grade of the bare necessities must
be added railroad fare and other ex.
penses. The student must not smoke.
may never take a glass of wine or
beer. never go 10 a theatkr or movie.
not be sick or pay doctors fees-in
a word, he must live hermit's life
in Paris, which is to say the least
improbable IL not impossible.
To combat the II. c. l.. students
have been forced to abandon the
carefree comaraderie of Bohemian
life and initiate their American
cousins in an effort to work their
way through the university.
Student self-help has been assisted
by the eight-hour law, which in many
other respects has done so much to
damage French reconstruction and
delay return to normal. In olden
days a student would not have been
able to have secured work, because
the employer would have insisted
upon a ten to twelve-hour day. To.
day the employer who even permits
his employees to work longer than
eight hours is in danger of being
punished by the courts.
Musicians, walters, stenographers.
artists are spending their spare time
completing their university courses.
University Not Sympathetic.
The Paris University. however, has
not yet developed the sympathy for
the self-supporting students which is
found in America, and the faculty Is
said to frown upon the people who
don't devote their entire time to the
school. AS result many students
are able to take only part-tirne work.
This Is especially disheartening to
those who already have been set
back five years by the war in getting
into work in their life profession.
The schools are filled with embryo
doctors and lawyers twenty-eight to
thirty years of age.
L'Oeuvre demands that the gov
ernment give some attention to the
number of candidates in the medical
and law schools. Unless some assist
ance is given, the future may see a
dangerous lack of representatives OF
these two professions in French life.
For the law course takes five and
the medical college seven years. And
there are comparatively few French
families today who gan face the cut
lay of from four to seven thousand
dollars to give their sons a profes-
sional education.

PARIS, April 11.-Boheme. the
land of Mimi. Trilby and Svehgali.
of poor painters and sculptors. of
thresdbare students and poets is
no more. Devastated by war. it
takes its place with Rheims and
Chateau Thierry among the ruins
of land that was. Boheme has
become a tradition.
Joyous Ones Gone.
The Joyous student of the Latin
Quarter. with a bottle of wine in one
hand and his sweetheart held by the
other has become a myth. The stu
dents are still there. In smaller num-
bers, to be sure, but they are no
longer joyous. They no longer sing;
they seldom laugh. They are seri-
GUS, tense, strained, counting the
fictional French coin which has dis
appeared since the war, the centime.
L'Oeuvre urges that the govern
ment subsidize the universities to
give the students enough money on
which TO live. The number OF stu
dents is diminishing daily. The Ru-
manians, Czechs, Serbs, Polish and
South Americans, who formerly
came to Paris for their educations,
are rapidly disappearing. Many are
going to the German universities,
where the cost of living is said to be
from one-half TO one-tenth the price
of Paris.
American art students who wish
90 complete their studies In Paris
would do well to investigate the cost
of living today rather than ask the
Of uttG nf
other years. The figures published
in the Review of the University of
Paris indicate that. the life of a stu
dent at this school costs at least one
thousand dollars a year. The days
when the students lived on thirty
to fifty dollars a month are gone, 1t
seems. forever.
