20 reels a year The corps total
production approximates 40 films,
about half of them sound movies.
Maj. M E. Gillette, in the Office Of
the chief signal officer, in the
Munitions Building, is the w. S. van
Dyke of the War Department He
explains that the primary interest of
his division is in 'lnstructional films
on military subjects, designed specif-
cally for use as class room aides to
teach officers and enlisted men mill
tary operations and tactics and the
use of equipment"
The Signal Corps has few his
torical films which may be borrowed
by non-mllitary bodies, but most of
its production is of the how to do
type. No movies of an historical
nature are being made at present
because the Army is not engaged in
any maneuvers which warrant this
kind of treatment. The last such
film was Of American troops in
Shanghi in 1881. This is not being
circulated even in the Army.
Movies Of American troops in the
World War are being reassembled and
prepared for use in the service schools
to instruct Army men in military
operations. Maj. Gillette says these
pictures furnish invaluable illustration
Of certain phases of operating an
army in the field, the building Of
pontoon bridges, the movement of
supplies, etc.
The C. C. C. figures prominently
in Signal Corps movies, as it does in
Agriculture and Interior movies.
Films were made showing how the
Army handled supplies, housing and
organization Of the peace time con-
Servation force.

movie makers, the Signal Corps

The Interior movie makers also are
proud OF a picture they made of the

month, and shows an exciting rescue
OF two men whose boat overturned.
The purpose of this movie is TO
illustrate flood rescue and rehabili

HEARON is thinking seriously" Of
making color movies. He has
had talks with statesmen for several
processes. The public domain,
national parks, Indians and other
subjects in which Interiors movie
division specializes ''are the finest
kind of color subjects" Hearon said.
Musical arrangement for Interior
movies is done on contract by James
Bradford. composer and veteran of
the motion picture industry, in New
York City. Bradford sometimes uses
his own compositions.
Hearon's division makes about 30
reels year at an average cost Of
sl.I00 a reel, everything included
The cost per foot is about 50. it is
estimated, compared to 81 or s5
commercially.
Arrangements and rules of dis
trloutlOn are the same as for
Agriculture Department films. No
Government movie may be exhibited
for an admission charge urless a part
Of regular program.
Latest distribution figures show
about 500 shipments of Interior movies
each week. With an average of 100
persons seeing each movie. annual
attendance is placed at approximately
2,ooo,0 600. exclusive of regular theater
shoWlngs, which bring to about
100000 the number which sees these

Evans said the technical difficulties
OF making story pictures in sound
deferred him from attempting this
kind of production. He has not aban-
doned the idea, however, and intends
to cast players from the department S
Dramatic Guild.
Agriculture's movie division has a
studio for making interiors and a
certain amount of props. News reel
concerns occasionally ask for and
receive permission to use these facil-
tiles. The division expects to move
soon into new Offices, laboratories and
studio in the departments South
Building.
As FOR custumes, the division
maintains small wardrobe
whose main appurtenances are floppy
farmers hats, boots and jackets

Evans calls on the National Museum
which has big and famous collection
of period costumes. In the making
Of Sir Loin" beef movie, it was
! necessary to have some one represent
an old English king. The National
Museum obliged with the costume

The titles OF some Agriculture
movies are as alluring as the products
OF Hollywood. You'd think, for in

hopes that it will eventually be in
strumental in saving the lives Of few

Considerably younger in the movie
field than Agriculture, but just as up
and-coming, is Interior Department.
Tanning Hearon, a young man with
10 years newspaper experience,
Southern man, is chief Of Interiors
division of motion pictures.
Hearon's Office has made more than
SIS movies. Five others, totaling IA
reels, will be ready by mid-July,
bringing to 80 the production since
July J., 1885.
All photography of Interior Depart
ment subjects is done with silent
camera. Music and sound effects are
added by an outside contractor in
New York and the off-stage voices are
those of New York radio announcers.
In addition to making movies for
the Interior Department, Hearon's
division does some work for other
agencies. 1t made The Story of
WOOL for the Farm Credit Admins
tration, with the subtitle, From
Fleece to Fabric" Hearon thought
From Back to Back" would have
been better, but the F. c. A. said no.
Service to Those Who Served" was
produced for the Veterans Admins
tration. Many films are made for the
Civilian Conservation Corps, which
allots some of its appropriation to
Interior for this purpose. Agriculture
and Signal Corps also have made a
number of c. C. C. pictures Probably
the c. c. c. boys appear IN more
Government pictures, individually and
collectively, than any other kind Of
amateur players"
IN PRODUCTION for Interior is a
movie called The Price OF Prog
reSs,' which Hearon believes will be a
smash hit. like Resettlements The
Plow That Broke the Plain" The
latter, incidentally. was not actually
a Government-made picture. 1t was
done under Government auspices, for
| the Government, by group Of tech
nicians hired on contract for Just this
one occasion.
The Price of Progress" is a sermon

Evans says production costs, in
Guiding everything-salaries, raw ma
terials, travel expenses-amount to not
more than $500 a reel, or about one
| half or one-third the cost of CONNER
! cial production.
Although most such pictures are
/ filmed with silent cameras and the
! sound effects and music added latter,
| the division is equipped to record
natural sound and last Summer made
a movie of the invasion of the l7-year
locusts (cicadas). Part of the picture
was filmed at the suburban home of
a department entomologist, but the
best sound effects were obtained by
turning loose a box of locusts in the
! divisions studio under 5,O0O-watt
lights.
They cut loose to beat the band

Is to overcome major diseases such as
cancer and tuberculosis. and to this
end the cooperation of newspapers,
magazines and radio Is essential"
This statement was made recently
by Dr. Arthur C. Christie of Washing
tional Congress of Radiology, which
will meet in Chicago, September 13 to
IT. 1t will be the first time that an
international congress of this branch
Of medicine-the diagnosis and treat
ment of injury and disease by X-rays
and radium-has ever been held in
America. The congress will be at
tended by at least 1000 delegates and
visitors from all parts OF the United
States and probably 500 delegates
from 80 nations in Europe, North and
South America, and Asia.
''Radiology is the youngest branch
Of medicine" said DR.. Christie. 1T
is only about as old as the motor car
or aviation, but like these means of
transportation, it has had an amazing
growth and expansion in its 40 years
OF existence. Radiology has been ac-
cepted as very valua BILE arm Of medi-
cine and surgery, and We hope to show
in this international congress that
this specialization is now and will in
creasingly be Of benefit to humanity.
For example, the diagnosis Of dis
ease by X-rays has practically revo-
lutionized the study and knowledge Of
tuberculosis, and nearly all cases of
this once-dreaded disease are now
diagnosed by X-rays. Many cases Of
cancer have been cured by X-rays and
radium. There have been a number
OF successful treatments Of internal
cancer of the vital organs. We could
carry this further and show that most
stomach ulcers are diagnosed by the
X-ray, as are bone and kidney dis
eases, Affections Of the sinuses, of the
teeth, and even the brain.
I'm FACT, all organs Of the body, as
well as the bore structures can
now be made apparent to the radioIo-
gSt for his diagnosis. BY injection
