Australia Leads U. s.
 In Movie Enthusiasm

WASHINGTON, Oc.. 13.-Aus- tralians are even more ardent movie enthusiasts than Americans, says c. J. North, chief of the mo- tion picture section of the depart ment of commerce.
 American film interests, MT. North declares, estimate that Aus tralia spends $1.14 on motion pie ture admissions to every dollar spent thus in the United States, popularly supposed to have the highest proportion of film fans.
 In proportion to it's population, Australia is the best film market in the world. American films com mand more than 90 per cent of the entire Australian motion pie ture business. China, the best potential market in the Far East, is at present the poorest. Larger than the United States and with three times it's population, China has only 106 theatres. American pictures are popular there, their chief rivals being pictures Chinese produced almost entirely for local showings.
