FRANCE CLAMPS
TIGHT EMBARGO
ON u. S. FILMS
80 Movies in Six Months Is
Limit; Mickey Mouse
Escapes Ban.
BIZ United Press

BIZ United Press
PARIS, June ga cold govern
ment, determined to reduce the
counuys unfavorable trade balance,
made provision today to let Mickey
Mouse slip through customs cor
don so severe that American motion
picture men said it meant the Eek
tinction" in France Of their indus
try.
BY special provision, it was de-
creed that animated cartoons
should continue to enjoy unre-
stricted entrance and exhibition.
So severe was tho decree concern
ing films generally that Harold
Smith, representative of American
producers, cabled Will Hays during
state department intervention to
save the American film trade in
France.
An official decree prescribed that
during the entire six months be-
ginning July l only ninety-four
films could be imported from for
eign countries for clubbing for
completion in the French language
here.
The same decree doubled the i'm
port duties on foreign films.
Showing of nondubbed films, with
their limited appeal, is restricted to
five theaters in the Seine depart
ment, which is the Paris district,
and ten elsewhere in rance.
The United States share of the
ninety-four films to be admitted
during the last half of the year
was expected to be 85 per cent, or
eighty films.
Mr.. Smith, discussing the decree,
said that it was the worst treatment
United States producers ever had
experienced. Last year, France al
lowed 242 foreign films, and author
lied English language films in five
Paris theaters. French exhibitors
had asked a quota of 325 films a
year.

Let's Go Fishing
FAMED DIXLAKE
is IDEAL SPOT
FOR SPORTSMEN
Kentucky Water Is Full of
Fish; But George Got
Nary a One.
BY GEORGE II. DENNY
Times Fishing Editor

Before the fishing editor was a
fishing editor he uS"d to catch
fish once in a while. Since that time
his luck has been bad and it must be
his skill.
The above plant is preface to
few remarks about my trip last
weekend TO Dix lake, that famous
bass water near Danville, KY.
I've angled just long enough to
know that some days they just
won't, so the fact that no one in the
party even had a strike was slightly
lost in our admiration for the coun-
try.
They're In There
The great Dix dam backs the
water up for more than thirty miles
in a narrow. limestone canyon stud
ded with cedars and hardwood. In
spots the walls are carved away by
ancient floods, forming underwater
caves and pockets for the exclusive
use Of the hordes of large mouths.
The fact that we couldn't coax
them out from their caverns de-
traCted not one bit from the "fiShy'
look OF the water. You know they're
there and you are willing, as we're
we, to try for them all day with no
encouragement.
Near the dam the water is 300
feet deep. On the hottest days
there are cool depths to keep up
the fighting spirit of the bronze
backs. (Just happened to think
that there are only 200 feet of line
on my reel, so if that's where they
were, I was helplesSD
They Use Plugs
Most successful fishermen use
plugs in this lake, casting the shore
lines closely. or dropping the lure
into school Of minnoWs as the
bass charge them.
The water is low at this time and
tops of tall trees tower above the
flsherman's boat. It's a strange
feeling to drop your soft craw or
minnoW down through the sunken
limbs, knowing that if you have a
strike the odds are high that the
bass will hang you up where birds
used to build
Beside bass, the lake sWarns with
Dream and "newlights." Bream are
much like our blue gill and new
lights" are of the family of crap
pies.
He Wants to Go Again
Here's one place where the cane
pole fisherman can dangle his bait
from the bank with no worries about
getting it out into deep water. On
the contrary, he may be fifty feet
or so from the bottom if he's sitting
on one of the oVerhanging Lodges.
In spite of the Waterhaul, I want
to try it again. No one could con-
vince me that the sport wouldn't be
we'll worth the 200-mile trip on days
when the bass decide to feed.
And if, as we were, you are lucky
enough to be guests of a charm
ing Kentucky family, after the third
or fourth helping of fried chicken
and corn mullins, you won't care
whether you fish or not.

He has done a wonderful work in the
Treasury Department at a critical and
trying time.
His help was so valuable that I
persuaded him to stay far beyond the
period for which he originally con-
sented to come.
He is leaving now only because he
feels that it is urgently necessary to
give attention to his responsibilities
in st. Louis.
Not only am I personally deeply
grateful to him. but feel that he de-
serves public recognition of able serv-
ices to the Nation"

FLINT, Mich, May ia bank
robber gang that acted with Dillinger-

out definite clue to the whereabouts
Of the five men and a woman who
looted a branch bank here of $50, 900
yesterday.
After witnesses had studied photo
graphs Of the Nations No. l public
enemy of the moment, the first theory
that John Diflinger led the raiders
faded. The belief persisted with some
investigators that the robbery was
carried out by the Dillinger gang, but
others shifted to the theory that the
robbers were Detroit or Toledo gang
sters.
One OF three men who invaded the
bank few minutes after an armored
car had delivered 500. 900 from the
home Office of the Citizens CONNER
cial & Savings Bank, carried a sub
machine gun. The woman, who sat
with a man in an automobile near
the bank while the robbery was in
progress, also had a machine gun.
The other gang members had sawed
of shotguns and pistols.
The robbers escaped in two auto
mobiles. A hurried but thorough
search Of highways for those cars was
fruitless.
