British Will Combat
Witchcraft by Radio

LONDON.-To stamp out the evil Of
witchcraft among Central African ma
tives, which still constitutes one Of the
most battling problems the British ad-
ministration are facing in vast areas of
the Dark Continent, the use Of the
radio, movies and native-language
newspapers to spread educative propa-
ganda among the tribal negroes Is ad-
vocated
Frank H. Melland, formerly an officer
in the Northern Rhodesian service who
has made an intensive study of this as
pect of native life in Africa, has out
lined the plan to the government.
The present penal laws with which
the government aims to suppress the
practice Of witchcraft merely succeed,
asserts Mr.. Melland. in driving it un-
derground without banishing from the
natives minds the implicit belief which
they hold in it.

nations we're the result Of this policy of
ours. We now find ourselves among the
heaviest losers in the decline of world
trade. We, therefore, have an interest
in a new policy; but also We have a
responsibility to reverse q disastrous
policy which We fostered.
In 1928 our exports were approx
mately 10 per cent Of our total pro-
duction-roughly equivalent to the en-
tire output Of our automobile industry
So our lost export market IS worth re-
covering. We have large surpluses of
wheat, cotton, lard and other agri-
cultural commodities of which We would
like to dispose. Our manufacturers,
too. would like to find outlets for their
surplus capacity. We cannot hope to
find markets for our surplus and to
keep them unless we are willing to ac-
cept payment for the goods which We
have to sell. Ultimately those pay
ments must be in the form of goods
or services. The method BY which We
preserved a foreign market for our sur
plus while surrounding our own do
mestic market with high tariff wall
was to lend the money with which the
surplus was bought. That is, We ar
ranged for the buyers of our goods to
defer payments. without giving very
much thought to the question of actual
payment The international debt struc-
ture grew top-heavy. Just as the domes-
tic debt structure did
If we are to free the channels Of
trade we must be prepared to receive
other goods or services in payment, or
we must revert to the system Of lend
ing money with which our goods can
be bought. A realistic handling of
the problem must be based on the
realization that if We are ever to be
repaid for the goods we sell abroad it
must be with other goods and services,
and that the sensible solution is to
make it possible for us to receive pay
ments as we 60 along in goods which
We lack or which other nations can
produce more efficiently than we can.
Cooperation Necessary.
No nation alone can afford to lower
its own tariff barriers at the present
time, for If it did it would imme-
diate!y become the dumping ground
for the surpluses of other nations. This
is a part Of the general international
dilemma. But all nations. OF several
leading nations, can profitably co-cp-
crate to reverse the trend toward eco

LONDON.-Following the example Of
many British producers. an increasing
number Of film producers in the United
States are submitting scenarios to the
British Board of Film Censors before
they begin shooting"
Referring to this interesting develop
ment. the Right Rev. Edward Shortt,
president of the board, says in his
latest report:
Until quite recently this course was
only taken by certain British producers,
but during the year there has been an
increased tendency on the part Of large
American producers to avail themselves
of this facility to obtain the boards

opinion on their productions prior to
commencing operations at Hollywood.
Our observations have proved helpful
to them also, especially in the direction
of showing the differences between pub
lie opinion in America and England
with regard to certain subjects. This
has frequently led to alternative scenes
or shots being taken at the outset to
conform with the varying standard Of
each country. On many points the
standard Of censorship of the two coun-
tries is widely different"
Only 22 Rejected.
During 1882, according to the report,
1852 films were examined, but only %
were rejected, although exception of
some sort was taken to 1872 others,
necessitating cutting or alterations.
Jeremiahs hereabouts who have at
tributed much of the increase in crime
to f1lm-going are challenged by the
chief censor who asserts that the youth
of today, which has grown up under
the influence of the cinema, is better
than the youth Of an earlier generation.
This opinion, he says. is confirmed by
many educational authorities and for

mischief; it gives them something to

Blackball Love Films.
The film for the last 80 years, de-
clares the chief censor, has been by far
the most popular entertainment for the
youth Of Britain.
An Edinburgh cinema inquiry held
recently to ascertain the influence of
the fllm on school children and adde's
cents has revealed that the three first
preferences Of the boys in the Scottish
capital were, respectively. war pictures,
cowboy or wild west films and UNDER
world and gangster pictures. Pictures
with love" interest were scorned by
1853 per cent Of the boys. The girls
showed q decided preference for mys-
teries and wild west and, like the boys,
blAckballed love films.
