Movies an Organic Part
Of the Russian People

The Union of Socialist Soviet Re-
publies is very active in the develop
ment of its film industry, and striv-
ing hard to bring the production to
the highest point according to advice
reaching the official channels in
Washington. Special articles are APP
pearing in the magazines of the vari-
GUS countries Of Europe, praising the
rapid strides made in the Soviet
Union in the development of film
making.
According to the news gathered
from abroad, very few films are be-
ing imported. And the Soviet film
makers are concentrating on build
ing their own mechanical apparatus
for taking and projecting the pic
lures. This has been brought about
by the Soviet Regime because Of its
conception of the Cinema cas- an
organic part of the life of the people,
instead of being as in Western Eu-
rope and America merely an amuse-
ment program. Moving pictures are
a necessity and not luxury" Every
hamlet in the vast territory of the
country now goes to see pictures
made in U.S.SR. Not only in the
large centres like Moscow and Lenin-
grad, but in the smaller cities, num-
erous theatres are in operation.
Where no theaters exist the films are
shown in tents or in the open.

the Neighborhood Playhouse will bid
farewell to their little theatre on

On the Screen
CHANG

Here is a picture of the primitive
struggle for existence in Northern
Siam, more thrilling than any pic
ture of adventure. Not as fine a work
as "Grass," it is intensely dramatic
and surely worth seeing.
No trained actors take part in 1t.
The story is birds-eye view of the
struggle of a Siamese family to main
tain existence in the jungle. The
struggle for food, the dangers Of wild
animals, their superstitions and the
intimate family life are beautifully,
wildly portrayed and worth the ten
best books ever written on the sub
ject.
Merriam Cooper and Ernest Schoed-
sack, the same men who produced
''Grass," are responsible for this film.
The work is the result Of nearly two
years of life with the natives, study
of their means of livelihood and its
dramatic presentation. It was a
courageous, dangerous task no doubt.
A scene of a tiger hunt at which a
native in escaping falls before an at
lacking tiger is breath-tal1ing. freed,
the native, faces tiger who succeeds
in climbing within reach. The camera
records this so closely that the head
of the tiger rushes full into the screen
in all its beautiful viciousness.
There is a splendidly portrayed at
tack of an elephant herd on a village
which it demolishes into shreds. The
daring photographers have not only
succeeded in picturing this from many
angles but have actually brought the
colossal immensely Of these tons Of
moving beasts TO our vision in I'M
usual photographs taken from a pit
over which the elephant stampede
moved. You sec the fast moving
mammoths rushing overhead and
seemingly thru the screen into the
audience. Unusually realistic action
is achieved by the projection of these
scenes in double the usual size of the
balance of the picture. 1t is surely
as dramatic thing as has ever been
presented in motion pictures.
The film has more than dramatic
interest. There is also a generous
share of comedy contributed by a ma
tural born COMEDIAN white monkey.
Pet Of the family, this ancestor of
ours goes thru all the trials of the
native family, sharing their dangers
and comforts. When the home is de-
molished by an elephant and the FAM
lily escapes into the Jungle to face
the dangers of wild animals, the mon
