GERMAN EMBASSY
MAY SUE MOVIES
The Ramparts We Watch
Film Is Not Pleasing
to Germany

New York, Aug. 29-(UP)-Louis
De Rochement, publisher of the
March of Time, said today that the
German embassy had threatened
legal action unless parts of its full
length film, The Ramparts We
Watch, were deleted.
De Rochement said the part OBJ
jected to was the Nazi propaganda
terror picture, Baptism of Fire,
which he said constituted "the most
damning indictment of the Nazi re-
CINE in existence" by the addition
Of other films.
De Rochement said he had invited
members of the German embassy to
see a preview of the film yesterday
afternoon, and offer suggestions.
The terror picture, Feuertaufe (Bap-
tism of Fire), had been used for
propaganda in Holland, Belgium and
Norway before their invasion, and
in Sweden, Denmark, Roumania,
Turkey, and Egypt.
The propaganda ministry, through
the embassy at Washington, had
willingly permitted the March of
Time to use the film for exhibition
purposes, believing it would con-
tinue to be useful as Nazi propagan-
da, he said.
The members of the embassy ask
ed the company to withdraw the
German portion of the picture. The
company refused, and last night,
the embassy. through Baron Ulrich
Won Gienanth, second secretary,
served notice that unless the March
of Time withdrew the German por-
tons, prompt legal action would be
taken, De Rochement said.
He said he told Baron Giennanth
that he would not submit TO censor
ship by the German embassy.
