Stay-in Strike Echoes

Just as, last summer. French In
dustrialists saw In the "stay-in"
strikes here q terrific attack on the
principle Of private property, so, to-
day, the American counterpart Is
viewed here as an event reaching far
Beyond a simple wage-and-hours
conflict.
:. Conservative Frenchmen have the
same feeling about the American
strikes as they had about their own.
Such manifestations are an unwar-
1anted interference with personal
liberty and the fundamental princi-
pies Of property, they hold. To

transactions that can't be accom-

Sous were first issued as currency

the very beginnings Of the history
Of France as a nation.
Then 1t was a pretty sizeable coin.
A man with q Sou could certainly

maybe got the lien Of a good heifer

No American or other foreigner
can consider himself or herself a
true Partisan until he can automat-
ically calculate in Sous instead OF
centimes and francs In petty trans
actions. It's an art.

Ko0tenai Theatre Dedicates
New Sound System

With the showing of Wake Up
and Live" as the opening vehicle,
w. +. .Klenitz, manager of the Koo-
tenai theater, announced the public
Inauguration Sunday of the revolu-
tionary new RCA Victor sound re.
producing system, the Magic Voice
of the Screen which has been in
stalled in the last few days.
Working in the early hours of the
morning SO as MOTTO interfere with
the regular showings, RCA Victor
sound engineers have installed and
tested the elaborate new sound sys-
tenn and reported it ready. A new
loud-speaker system which insures
uniform distribution of all sound
frequencies to every part of the
theatre, has been put in place be-
hind the screen. The soundwaves
penetrate tiny perforations in the
screen, which are invisible from the
auditorium and flow out from
around the top and sides of the
screen. In the projection booth a
High Fidelity soundhead has been
incorporated into the picture pro-
lection system and powerful ampli-
fer racks installed.
Technical progress in the sound
motion picture art has been so rapid
that sound reproducing systems of
the earlier days are now hopeless1y
inadequate for recreating the finely
recorded pictures of the present day.
Whereas previous systems have been
able to reproduce tones as low as 100
cycles and as high as 5000 cycles
at the very best, the new RCA equip
ment can faithfully reproduce tones
as low as so cycles and as high as
100000 cycles. The range of volume,
too, has been improved SO that the
merest whisper of the wind in the
grass, the laundering roar of a
niagara of sound, or the great Gre
scenda of symphony orchestra may
be reproduced with equal fidelity
With the installation of this re-
markable new sound apparatus in
the Kootenai theatre, motion pic
ture fans of Libby can enjoy sound
of the same high standard as that
in the two finest theatres in the
world, the Center Theatre and
Radio City Music Hall, of Rookie
Teller Center, New York, for the
sound systems are practically iden-
teal in operation and quality of re-
production.
