1.-THE Chinese movement is not
like the Russian revolution. Russia's
sovereignty was not questioned at
any time. But Chinese sovereignty
is violated by the foreign powers in
treaties, foreign concessions, spe-
cial rights for foreigners and by
actions of force.
China wants. to be sovereign and
manager of her own house, so the
Chinese revolution is very like the
American revolution and not at all
like the Russian revolution"

WAS A RIOT
AND HOW

That foreign motion picture pro-
ducsrs, taking advantage Of the
preference expressed by the pGa-
lie for American films, are mis-
branding their pictures and sell
ing European-produced pictures in
India as American productions is
indicated in advices from Delhi,
india which tell of the protest
Of mob against an American
film"
Win H. Hays, president of the
Motion Picture Producers and Dis
tributors of America, Inc, says
that this is indicated in the dis
patches reporting the recent DEM
onstration by Moslems against
Moon of Israel" which is named
In cables as being an American
film
AN outbreak occurred in the
alter in protest against historically
correct scenes" said Mr.. Hays.
Cakes from London state that
Moon of Israel is an American
picture.
This production, which was
shown in New York city recently,
was produced by the Sascha Film
Company Of Vienna. 1t was made
in Austria from a story written
by III. Rider Haggard. an English
author. Americans had nothing
whatever to do with its produc.
ton. Moon Of Israel is known
on the continent as one of the
best Of the Austrian productions.
The American rights are owned
by Film Booking Office, an Amer
lean company.
Why it is designated in India
as an American production I do
not know. unless it was falsely
branded by persons who wished to
take advantage of the popularity
OF American pictures. Either that,
or the report charging the riot
as due to an American film may
be another evidence OF the or
gan'Zed effort to discredit Ameri-
can films IN certain countries be-

500 Line Files Suit
in u. S. District Court

Notice that the 500 Line railroad
has filed suit in federal court to
prevent the collection Of part Of the
taxes assessed against it this year
by the state board of equalization
has been received here by Attorney
General George F. Shafer.
The suit, which is directed against
the state board of equalization and
the auditor and treasurer of each
county in which the railroad oper-
ates, states that the company is
ready to pay 20 per cent of the
assessment levied against it but
asks that state and county officials
be enjoined from collecting the he.
naming 30 per cent.
The cases is based on tho same
claims as were presented to the
Burleigh county district court
earlier in the year, the action being
brought under a state statute. Al
that time the district court held tina,
the railroad could not bring an in.
junction action since the state Law
requires the disputed taxes be pait
and an action brought to obtain :
refund.
( Great Importance is attached Il
the case because of the fact that al
railroad property is valued by Thu
state for taxing purposes in thu
same manner, and success Of tn
500 Line suit might result in sim
liar actions by other railroads.
