Czech Critics Raped
For Cagey Praise Of
Red Propaganda Film
By the Assoeioted Press

PRAGUE, Oct. 15.-The Russian
ouestion-that's the name of the
film-has Prague and the rest OF
the country on its theological ears.
The Aim is one made from Con-
stantin Simonov's play Of the same
name, which portrays American
publishers as scoundrels who won't
let reporters write the truth about
Russia.
The film had premiere in
Prague and rs other Czechoslovak
cities simultaneously and appears
to be in for fairly long run.
The critics all praised it-of
course. But the manner Of praise
struck a sour note and those who
dwelt only on the technical excel
lence Of the film were raped sharply
by theological leaders.
Technical Details Fair.
The film has a pretty fair brand
Of technical excellence, at that, GER
tainly as much as Hollywood film
about Russia. The montage back
OF the taxi window which shows ii
traversing Broadway gave the i'm
preston of lights and people and
traffic. and it was only carping
American who noticed the Roxy
sign appearing half dozen times
and who figured out that it took the
cab Is minutes to make it from the
Roxy to the Brass Rail.
And somewhere there may be city
rooms like the one portrayed in the
headquarters Of Harry Smiths anti
Russian publication. All the Rus
sian actors had to pronounce il
Garry, of course, because there are
no his in Russian.
But all in all, the films technical
details were satisfactory enough.
However, the films critics who
mentioned only that were taken tc
task by Jaromir Horec. editor of the
left-wing youth paper Mlada Fronta
He said the firm was textbook un-
yelling the stupidity of the So
cialist ghost" that Western imperial
ism was foisting on the world.
Critics Are Criticized.
It unmasked, he said, the true face
of American capitalism and warned
against new Hitlers and new Goeb-
bels.
The Communist newspaper Rude
Pravo Red Right took up the hue
and cry and the official party line
was that those who saw only techni-
cal excellence in the film didn't be-
long in the field of film criticism
and better find something else to do
The films opening scenes are
filled with newsreel shots of the
United States, attempting to show
contrasts between night clubbers and
share croppers. skyscrapers and
tenements. and picturing police
clubbing strikers, strikers pouring
out milk. and Klansnen burning a
fiery cross.
1t winds up with montage OF
American tanks being loaded into
ships apparently sent year age
to Turkey, and other alleged Amer
lean preparations for war. The clos
ing shot shows Prime Minister Stain
on a balcony, saluting troops.

apologizing for his remarks. The
questions asked by Mr.. Bramuglia
he said, gave him "the impression
they were designed to drag the
Soviet Union into the debate on
the Berlin question"
Mr.. Bramuglia said he could have
answered them in writing, which
would not have constituted par
ticipation in the debate and the
Russian position would thus have
remained consistent"
Congratulates Bramuglia.
DR.. T. F. Tsiang of China con-
graduated Mr.. Bramuglia for his
answer to MIR. Vishinsky He said
after the meeting he intended tc
make such reply, but that the
Argentine beat him to it.
Oscar Lange of Poland, who re-
nounced his American citizenship tc
return to the Communist country
indicated Russia would veto any
Security Council decision on Berlin
and attack the competence of the
U. N. General Assembly to discuss
the matter. He said he believed only
direct negotiation will solve the
crisis.
Dmitri Manuilsky of the Soviet
Ukraine said any hope of Berlin
compromise rests with the three
Western powers, because they
brought the question before the
Security Council.
Neutrals Appeal for Accord.
Six lesser powers on the Council
had appealed to the Big -Four to
settle the blockade by direct nego-
tiation.
MIR. Vishinsky contended last week
that the Eecurity Council has nc
jurisdiction over the Berlin ques-
ton. He said blockade does not
exist. He contended that only the
Foreign Ministers council may act
on German questions until Ger.
man peace treaty is signed. He re-
peated those arguments today. He
declared that the Kremlin had or.
dered him to take no part in debate
on the Western power charges that
the Russian action in Berlin en-.
dangered peace and security.
Mr.. Visinsky repeated his theme
that there would be no Berlin ques.
ton II the Western powers had not
violated agreements made by the
four nations occupying Germany.
When he finished, the old prose.
cutor turned around toward mem.
bers OF his delegation. He smiled
broadly. Then he sat down, seized
his pencil and returned to his doc.
dle-making.
Tried for Week for Accord.
The neutral" nations-Argentina
Belgium, Canada, Colombia, Syria
and China-had tried without sue
cess for week to reach a compro-
mise formula which might dissolve
the issue. The Western powers have
refused any settlement which does
not include immediate lifting of
the blockade.
Four of the six lesser powers on
the Council said they believed there
still is a possibility OF a direct peace
full settlement. They said this after
a week of exploratory talks with the
Big Four delegates.
The United States, Britain, France
and Russia agreed in principle at
Moscow August 30 to lifting Of the
blockade in exchange for Western
acceptance of the Soviet mark as
Berlin's sole currency.
In the succeeding Berlin talks.
Marshal VASTLY D. Sokolovsky. Rus
sian occupation commander, injected
new Russian demands, including con-
troll of the Allied airlift to Berlin.
This caused a breakdown in direct
negotiations. The Western Allies
then tossed the issue to the Security
Council.

APPEALS COURT
REvERSES RULE.
IN MADRID CASE
Defendants Win Decision At
ter Long Fight: Theatre
To BE Re-Opened

Following a ruling by the dis
trict Court of Appeals in Toledo
Monday, the Madrid theatre may
again be re-opened as a moving
picture show place.
Judges of the Court of An
peals reversed the decision hand
ed down by Judge Z. C. Savord,
Sandusky, who heard the orig
mai case in the Ottawa county
common pleas court March 5.
In his decision, Judge Savord
enJoined Jack O'Connell, Toledo
theatre operator, from remodeling
and reopening the Madrid theatre,
and ordered Mrs. Velma. Hessel-
bart, Akron, owner Of the Mad
rld theatre property, to abide by
the terms of Il lease held by the
Popular Theatres & Amusements,
Inc, operators of the Clinton and
Erie theatres.
During the trial, the Popular
Theatres firm claimed it failed to
pay rent for the theatre building
for five months last year through
inadvertence, and because negotia-
tions were in progress for buy
ing the property.
Mrs. Hesselbart, the former
Nelma Reichert, stated she took
possession of the building and
leased it to Mr.. O'Connell last
summer in the belief that Popu-
lar Theatres had abandoned its
lease.
Judges of the Court of Appeals
ruled the Popular Theatres firm
had abandoned the lease. The
decision was a victory for Prose
cutting Attorney George W..
Slaughter, who represented Mrs.
Hesselbart and Mr.. O'Connell.
Plans are underway to COM
plete remodeling of the Madrid
theatre and for opening the
movie house soon. During the
winter months, the theatre "feud"
elected interest here when Popu-
lar Theatres officials posted the
building and hired guards to keep
out workmen hired by O'Connell.

RAMEy REPORTS
S18,5OO FUND TO
REPAIR PIER
Sum Included i'm COngressiOn-
al Appropriation For
New Year

Through the efforts of Congress
man Homer Ramey, Mayor Carl
Becker and Councilman Harold
Nielsen, Port Clinton's long-need-
ed East Pier repairs will become
an eventuality in the near future.
Mayor Becker this week received
a letter from Congressman Ram
ey, which stated that $18,500 had
been allocated in the Rivers and
Harbors Civil Functions bill for
repairs at the local harbor.
Becker and Nielsen last month
made a survey while high water
was running the pier, took pic. 50
Of the damage, and sent an ap-
peal to Mr.. Ramey. At that time,
huge rocks along the pier were
falling into the river.
In his letter, Mr.. Ramey said he
had been in touch with y. S. Army
Engineers and that $17,5O0 had
been allocated for maintenance and
repairs to the East Pier, protected
and reinforced with stone, and that
$1,000 would be used to cover a
survey of the entire area.
Ramey concluded: II am happy
indeed that we can accomplish this
in the 50th Congress for Port Clin-
ton, where such aid is so truly de-
served"
Becker stated that the contem-
plated repair work will be from
the northern end of the cement
pier to the extreme end of the
stone pier. Workers will straight
en- the present stones and add two
feet more to bring the surface
above the water.
U. S. Army engineers are ex-
pected here soon to complete an
other survey, and repair work is
expected to begin soon after July
l, when the appropriation becomes
effective.
