The great cathedral of Rheims,
France. destroyed by German shells
during the World War and rebuilt
largely through American interests,
has been re-consecrated.
In magnificent ceremonies, the
French Cardinal Suhard rededl-
Gated its famous altar, before
which the kings of France have
knelt to receive their crowns. Bless
ing its ancient walls. still bearing
the scars of war, he returned the
cathedral's sacred relics, absent
for % years.
AS age-old chants re-echoed IN
its medieval, vaulted arches it SEEM
ed that here was the triumph OF
good over evil.
The World War era is passing;
its scars rapidly are being erased
Few of the younger generation can
remember any of the terrors OF the
conflict. There remains, OF course,
the army of broken men, living
spectacles of conflicts havoc, but
most of these are segregated in hos
pitals or other government instltu-
tions, real prisoners of war await
ing inevitable but delayed release
from a stagnant, useless life. To
those who escaped unscathed, years
have turned battles into memory
Of gay adventure.
Huge, imposing memorials, dedi-
Gated within the past year, mark
the battlefields where thousands

Our Adversary
Never is Right

A Berlin newspaper the other DAY
published what it described as the Ten
Commandments" of a good Nazi sub
iect. To Americans, the list reads like
a comic opera, and even now-knowlng
how seriously the Nazi leaders regard
such things, we cannot help wondering
If the chap who wrote the command
ments" did not do so with large bulge
in one cheek, where his tongue was
lodged.
The first commandment, of course
was that Der Fuehrer adolf Hitler)
must be thy model
But the biggest horse-laugh to US on
this side of the ocean comes from Com
mandment No. ), which admonished all
good Nazis that Our adversary never
is right. If he were, he would be
Nationa-Socialist."
Even Hollywood couldn't think of
better gag line than that.
Seriously, however, the Nazi COM
mandments illustrate better than any
thing else could the reason for EurQpe's
present-day difficulties. They eXemplify
the utterly national, entirely selfish
ideas of a nation which is not in reality
q nation. but one man. They tell us that
there is no liberty in Germany, only
obedience to a dictator who gained his
position by force Of arms and holds it
the same way.
The very words of one Nazi command
ment demonstrate the whole trend of
tie Naz government. The command
mcnt tells Germans: "Thou hast no
rights, only duties"
Is it any wonder that German news
papers say only what Hitler wants them
to say (some American politicians would
like thatD, that opposition TO Hitler
means death or Imprisonment to any
German citizen, and that other nations
of the world are a bit shy of dealing
with a Germany guided by one man
who is Just as apt to be wrong as right?

Mickey Mouse because of his subVersive antics
in the newspaper Politica. Mickey it appears,
was getting involved in affairs of state and his
popularity was driving his comic strip foes to
cabals, juntas and other revolutionary devices.
Yugoslavian censors began to see Mickey as

whether or not Donald Duck, Pluto and Horace

Motion Picture Campaign
Launched Over The Nation
National Movie Quiz Conte st To Be Among Features: :
nouncement Appears In Daily Dispatch

In many cities the campaign will be
launched by proclamation by the
mayor or governor of the State and
py special editions in the news papers.
thousands of stores are cooperating
IN their advertising with motion pic
ture theatres, realizing as they do the
outstanding influence which motion
pictures exert on business life and
mercantile turnover of each COM
munity. Chambers of commerce
boards of trade, Rotary, Kiwanis and
Lions clubs are taking the occasion
of this campaign to register their tri-
oute to motion pictures from various
angles.
In Hollywood, Frank Whitbeck, pro-
ducer, has begun the preparation of
motion picture which will plav in
every theatre in the United States.
It's title is 1.-The World is yours" This
picture, in motion picture terms will
carry the same message to the screen
that the advertising message is con
veying in daily newspapers.
George Schaefer, executive chair
man of the campaign, expressed de-
light with the progress made on the
preparation for the start of Motion
Pictures Greatest Year on September
1. There is an additional value in
this campaign which none of us real
lied at the time it started. We are
proud of the fact that, as an industry.
we have so fundamentally guaran-
teed a large campaign fund We feel
that everything has been done by the
various committees to insure the sue
cess of the campaign. We feel that
the advertising program is definitely
step in the right direction not only
for the motion picture business but
as an example to all business. We
feel that results will amply justify the
effort.
None of us, however, visualized
the psychology of showmanship
which this united campaign has Gre
ated. Everywhere throughout the coun
try, showmen are waking up to the
realization that here at last is some
thing they can sink their teeth in and
about which they can go out and de-
monstrate the showmanship prin-
ciples upon which the business is
founded. Nothing like it has taken
place in the last four years of repres-
tation as means of arousing enthusi-
asm and putting showmanship brains
back at work."
