INSULTING TO THE

NATION

SHANGHAI (UP) China has dectaped war on motion pictures regarded aa insulting to the nation or dteeapectful to its people. The government's recent dispute with Paramount Pictures over “The General Died at Dawn’’ was only an incidental manifestation of a program which has for its aim the total auppreaalon, in all parts of the world, of any pictures deemed offensive to

China.

That the program has teeth in it was demonstrated by the “aanctiona”

Although the dispute over “The General Died at Dawn” received wide publicity because China demanded the withdrawal of the film after it had been shown in many parts of the world, the bias of the Chinese government against pictures believed to ridicule or discredit the Chinese people is one of several years’ standing. In 1936 Chinese groups protested against “Shanghai Express." but the movement lacked unity and direction, and made no headway. Later the showing of a Harold Lloyd comedy with some CJynese sequences brought a sharp protest from China and a near boycott of Lloyd films which resulted in apologies from the comedian himself as well as the studio, and the deletion of the offending scones. “Chu Chin Chow,’’ old time musical comedy stand-by was banned in China, but no effort was made to regulate its showing in other coun-

which it ifi proposed to invoke--any tries The picture titled “Shanghai” motion picture company which re- was never brought to China, as the

fuses to comply will have all its pictures banned throughout China. Five agencies of the Chinese government and its ruling party, the Kumintang, are enlisted in the cam-

paign: the ministries of foreign af- scenes showing fairs, interior and education, the mo- heroine’s lover,

lure was being shown elsewhere in the world in a different form, and demand for its world wide suppression was made. Makers of the film

agreed to suitable cuts.

Making of “The Good Earth,”

marked the first positive effort to

modify China pictures in the production stage. Gen. Tu Ting-hsiu, known in America as Gen. Theodore Tu, was sent to Hollywood as adviser to the producers. While there he was asked to pass on "The General Died at Dawn,” and on the basis of his approval, after some scones were changed, the studio believed the film was acceptable to China. That it was not was soon apparent; the Chinese vice-consul at Los Angeles protested against the showing of the picture and the foreign office followed with a demand for the picture’s world wide suppression. Hereafter, however. China will not delay its protest until a picture has been screened in many countries. All

of pictures already here.

In view of the number of films with Oriental background*, the stand of the Chinese government is oxpeeted to have a drastic effect on film fare in other parts of the world.

just as Francis came face to fnrn cnee more with the roughneck he v/tui about to light a while back “Well, well," said the Emperor cheerily, “my long lost friend!” The rowdy jammed his elbow into Francis' stomach The young ruler reeled. In a moment he refcovered, stepped up to the bruiser and shot a terriftc right hook to his jaw. The man went down like a bag of salt. Francis grinned triumphantly as he and Cissy slipped off into the crowd, leaving the inert form of the roughneck to he found by several startled secret servie*

All the dancers cheered mightily, and the band swung Into the national anthem, “God Preserve Our Noble Emperor" Tears -united in Cissy’s eyes as she join, d in sing-

The shooting-gallery attendant leaned over the counter. "Now what about letting the lady ehoot?" Cissy timidly picked up a rifle, aimed, and flred rapidly. "A perfect score!" cheered the barker. ‘"The lady should join the army! Here you are—fleet prize." He handed her another statue. “What's that?" asked Cissy. “The Emperor’s mother,’’ replied
