FRENCH FIGHT
 FILM MONOPOLY

Paris.-French film producers and theater owners have risen in wrath against a scheme for n state film monopoly with studios and theaters operated and built by the government, plan advanced by Charles Delac. president of the French Cinema Chambre Syndi- cale, father also of the unpopular finally killed
 picture theaters. French produc- CTS are limited in the cost of their productions by the fact that they must amortize their films by 300 rentals at most, with little possi- bility of exporting French-lan- guage films.
 The DeIac plan provides for the construction of modern studios on state property and for the produc- ton of commercial. propaganda and educational pictures. Under the plan, municipalities would col la aborate in building 2,00O or 5000 theaters throughout France In which the French films would be run.
 The scheme was really designed to strengthen the French film in- dustry by increasing its domestic market. permitting 1t eventually to compete with American films which still dominate despite the German effort to capture the trade and the governments film licens- ing law
 one of the American firms which opened studios in the Join vile colony. the Hollywood of Paris, has created training school for film actors and ac- trcsses to meet the demand for trained personnel. They select 20 young women and 20 young men, pay them d salary while they go to school for a year to study elo- cution, acting. singing and danc- ing. The students are worked into the films as extras during their school year.

 The house seemed utterly silent. Terror, icy and inescap apable, gripped the girls heart. She was still giddy from her fall. Fear fully she fixed her eyes on the dull face of the slumbering woman.

 counted on the old woman to guard her easily. With infinite caution Liane took another step Never. never had she known what anguish there might be in simple
 motion.
 At last she reached the iron, door. There was an old-fashioned
 chain lock. With painstaking
 care she unlatched 1t and the
 door swung quietly on its hinges She felt her heart pounding Tn her throat. Softly she swung the door to, felt her way In her stockinged feet, her one silver slipper in her hand. across the sniintered porch. Salt air rose

RULES ON TAX FOR
DIVISION OF TRACT
Attorney General Says Holder
Of Certificate Must Con.
sent to- Division

Division Of q tract Of land jointly
assessed and taxed as against the
holder of tax certificates issued to pri-
vate parties prior to March IL, 1881,
cannot be permitted unless the party
holding such a certificate consents
to the division, according to a rul-
ing by Attorney General James Nor
ris.
The opinion was given In reply to
an inquiry from F. F. Doherty, Fargo,
Cas- county auditor, who asked whe-
ther under chapter 287 Of the 1881
session laws division of a tract of
land can be made without the con-
sent Of the certificate holder of a
certificate issued prior to the effec-
tive date of the act. The act pro-
vides for the division Of tracts Of
land Jointly assessed and taxed and
for the redemption of parts Of 1t.
"A purchase at a tax sale is a con-
tract" the attorney general said.
THE law In force at the time q
tax sale IS made becomes a part IF
the purchasers. contract and any sub
sequent statute which attempts to
deprive him Of any substantial right
secured to him by the existing law is
void as 'tmpairing the obligation of
contracts. Furthermore, the general
rule OF construction applicable to re-
peals and revisions of revenue laws
is that they have a prospective oper-
alton only unless the intent of the
legislature to the contrary appears.
Tn constituting q law susceptible Of
two constructions, one Of which would
be unconstitutional and one collsti-
~tutional, the law should be given the
construction which would favor its
constitutionality.
Applying these rules to the law In
question, it is my opinion that chap
ter 287, in SO far as it applies to the
division Of tracts Of land jointly as
sessed and taxed, Is prospective in Its
operation and does not permit the
division Of such lands as against the
holder Of tax certificates issued prior
to March IL, 1881, to private parties
unless the party holding such GER
tificate shall consent to the divi-
sion"

CELEBRATES ITS
50IH BIRTHDAY

Out by Time
Schilling and Volkmann,
Original Partners, Still
Owners Of House

The Golden Anniversary Of a San
Francisco business house Is being
celebrated today.
For It was fifty years ago this
morning that two young men. Au-
gust Schilling and George r. Volk-
mann. began at 122 Davis Street to
sell coffee. tea, spices. baking pow
der, and extracts IN competition with
the great houses Of the day. Many
called them rash to enter = field
apparently 80 well supplied. but
these scoffers did not know the
young men nor their principles.
Today those principles have been
vindicated, and THE House Of
echilling" stands as one Of the Inn
portant merchandising establish
ments Of tho nation. And 1t Is sttIl
owned and controlled by those same
men who started It. When their
business opened on September 3.
1881, August echilling and George
volkmAnn were partners and today
they still control the enterprise they
started.
In this modern day Of mergers
and combinations, many have won.
dered that schilling and Volkmann
would want to hold to the business
they started. Friends Of the pair
have answered every query with .
smile.
"schilling and Volkmann sell?
Neverl" these friends have said.
docs q man divorce his wife on
their Golden Wedding Anniversary?
Not oftenl"
Schiliug and Volkmann were born
ten days apart. They were each ~
years old when they began that
enterprise On Davis Street, but
already they were wise In the BUSH
ness they had entered. Each had
been In the business several years,
working for others. But they wanted
their firm to be different.
Their policy was clear In their
minds when they started business
but It was some time later that
August echilltng put It down In
writing and passed It to his partner

mann read:

heard of the brilliant 1ealot. DR..

The House Of Schilling was an
early believer In . vigorous adver.
tising campaign. and was the orig
inator Of many advertising stunts"
now IN common practice. One Of
these-long before the Pure Food
Laws came-is still remembered by
old San Ftanciscans.
