THE AMERICAN FILMS
 AMUSE GERMANFANS
Harold Lloyd DiSplaces Charlie Chaplin in European Theaters

Munich, Sept. 21.-Horn-rimmed
 spectacles are now regarded by Euro
 peans as the infallible label of Am
 ericanism. Harold Lloyd has dis
 placed Charlie Chaplin in their fav-
 or. They have even, for the mo- ment, forgotten bouncing Douglas Fairbanks, Tom Mix and the other professional wild-westers, and accept the bespectacled Harold as the typi- cal American. And as it is difficult to reconcile the tortoise-shell blink CTS with cow-camps and Indians, Europeans are getting somewhat ,muddled in their conceptions of Am ,erican life.
 < For years cowboys and bounders with egg-toed shoes and padded shoulders represented American man kind. to Europe. The British comic papers and the British stage gave Europe its pictures of life in the United States. Then the movies came to the fore, and Europe insisted on having films which would not violate its notions on how Americans look and act. Films of conventional life in the United States apparently do not appeal to European crowds. At any rate they are never shown. { The ordinary European film is so
New Britain herald., 1923-09-21

slow in its action that the movie
 houses rely very largely on American
 films for their pep" and comedy.
 Europe produces tragedies without
 end Italy, Spain, France and Ger many stage sorrow and grief. Swe- den also supplies many tear-Yringers, and Russia is beginning to send soul- full films into. the houses of western Europe. So 1t remains for the Am ericans to supply something smilefu and lively.
 Europe has starved and fought and suffered so long that 1t wants change. European comedians have tried to make their fellow-country- men laugh, but they have failed so far in their efforts to produce first class comedy films.& Even the third rate American comics are more suc- cessful in Europe than the films in which the leading comedians of Eur ope have been featured.
 Comic nights are frequently adver- tised in German film theaters, when only the comic films of certain, Am erican favorites are shown. German producers, German actors and many of German critics denounce American comic films as foolish and inartistic, but the public crowds the theaters when they are shown and pays its hard-earned marks for chance to augh.

AUTHOR
 HIDES IN CR|MEA
s. Sergeyef zensky, Russian
 Writer Living Life of a Hermit

Simferopot, Crimea, Sept. 21.-In a little hut high up in the mountains some 50 miles from Simferopol, S.. Sergeyeff Zensky, one of Russia's most widely known authors, is today living the life of hermit.
 To an Associated Press correspon- dent Zensky related recently the diff faculties of being a hermit during a revolution, and spoke of his adven- lures during the numerous changes of regimes and the famine year in the Crimea
 "The famine here was very acute" he said. 'rhe land had been devas- tated by civil war and numerous ris- ings. It completed the rufhation, and carried away large portion of the population which was already depict ed by the upheaval and by terror.
 T lived here quite happily from 1913 until the beginning of 1918. Then the Germans raided my little farm, and later the Bolshevists. I had to take refuge in town, where lived in hiding for couple of months until I was able to secure from the authorities a guarantee of safety paper. My live stock and cat tie, which were conf1scated during the, period of my absence, were given back to me on my return, but they were unfit for work. Other changes of regimes, coupled with innumer- able Tartar risings, have each had their interest, and now the result is quite evident"
 Pointing to pile of timber and short beams in corner of the room, Aensky said: That, together with this little hut and one COW, is all that remains of my farm; all I have to leave to. my family"

MEXICO STIRS TO TALES
 OF BURIED TREASURE
Being Sent Out in En- dcavOr to Find Buried Hoards
 of Legendary Fame

Mexico City, Sept. 21.-Hunting for buried treasure, and revival of leg ends of hidden wealth, is noted
 Francisco Villa in an ambuscade at Parral, with the resultant disappear ance of the fear of that dread out laws vengeance if any of his sup posed hidden hoards were discovered, is one of the causes of the revival
 From Acapulco comes a story of the discovery by an unnamed German of 15,000,000 pesos worth of gold and silver bars popularly reported to have been hidden by the Mexican revolu- tionary General Vicente Guerrero. He captured this bullion, it is said, from treasure trains hurrying from the Guerrero mines to Acapulco when it became plain that Spain's days of domination in Mexico were num- bered.
 An expedition has left San Pedro de las Colonias, Coahuia, in search of several million pesos worth of bull lion, jewels, money and other valu- able objects reported to have been buried in 1914 by Villa somewhere along the Parras road.
 Ancient documents are being re- published to prove the existence of treasure said to total 2o,000,OO0 pesos in gold and silver, hidden in a cave on the banks of the Rio Hondo, be. tween sMexico City and Toluca. This hoard is reported to have been ac, cumulated by the revolutionary lead CT Antonio Balizan in raids conduct ed between 1912 and 1915 against Spanish bullion trains carrying metal from the mines of Sultepec and Tenn ascaltepec.
