LURTON SPEAKS \

Explains Work Being Done
BY United States Vet
erans' Bureau,

F. e. Lurton, chief district infor-
nation officer Of the United States
Veterans bureau, spoke at the weekly
luncheon of the Lions club today on
the work being done by tho bureau.
To give some idea OF the magni-
tude of the work being undertaken.
he pointed out that in this district
alone the bureau had about 1.400
employees and that applications for
training or other forms Of assistance
has exceeded the 10000 mark and
were stiR coming in at the rate Of
over 500 per month.
The district includes four states,
and there are now over 1000 veterans
in the district under, care in hospitals.
as well as thousands who are under
the al Of the bureau for care or
training along other lines.
In this connection Mr.. Lurton
pointed u that the need for voca-
tional training could not always be
measured by the apparent severity of
the injury or disability incurred by
the veteran du5lng the war, citing the
q 8 of one veteran who had lost his
little finger, an injury trifling in itself,
but which incapacitated him from
following his profession, which was
that of expert stenographer.
The address, was a brief but COM
prehensive description of he work
being done by the bureau. Ia,
Mrs. Mary T. Wishman and L. w.
Myers spoke briefly in behalf OF the

Fairbanks production, for instance, would be
assured fortune through illicit exhibition.
The railroads cooperate with the film ex-
changes in seeing that junked film is junk in
more than name only. Instances are known
where railroad officials have refused to receive
as freight large shipments of partially de-
stroyed film, which shipments have been sent
back to be thoroughly mutilated. Motion pic
ture producers are in favor Of this railroad
rule and inspection, as it is further protec-
tion against film pirates
Probably 80 per cent Of the junked film in
this country is sent to Newark, to the firm Of
Emile Snyder & Co., who are the most i'm
portant salvagers of film by-product There
is little use for the celluloid ITSELF the chief
salvage being the nitrate Of silver used in the
emulsion.
The celluloid, after the silver has been
soaked off, is burned. From ten to fifteen
tons of junked film is destroyed every week
by the Newark firm mentioned. From 1875 to
140 ounces Of silver to the ton are salvaged
from the old film. A lot Of about 800 feet
like that shown in the picture, will net S75
in silver from the emulsion. There is little
use for the celluloid. A very small amount is
New-York tribune., 1922-09-17

used in making imitation leather Some is
used also in making film cement by dissolving
the celuloid in acetone But most Of the nu-
tilated celluloid goes into the flames after the
emulsion has been removed Each reel, about
1000 feet, weighs five pounds, of which the
emulsion represents q very few ounces
A new reel Of positive film costs at whole
sale about $40, printed and packed, which of
course, is exclusive of the studio cost of pro-
duction. The studio costs are what send film
production into the "staggering'' class Pro-
ducing negatives may cost from $4,000 for a
one-reel cheap comedy to about $1,000, 900 for
q spectacular production of tv96ve reels play
ing length. These finished productions may
be the result Of from three to one hundred
reels of shots, trimmed down to playing length.
All the trimmings" go into the junk pile first
hand, of course. The finished reels must serve
their term in edifying the pubic until they
reach that stage where patching ceases to be
virtue. Then comes the inevitable for the
comedians, tragedans, trained animals, ami
mated cartoons, educational pictures, news
scenes and scenics. Once more, to bring Mr..
Henley down to date:

Each reel, Of about 1000 feet, is cut into
four pieces, just the way pie is cut when it
is quartored These pieces are shipped by
freight as junk. Merely chipping the film part
way through will not serve, as the film so cut
can be patched up. The ways of film pirates
are marvellous, and the companies and ex-
