At one period in 1926 not a single film was being made in this country. Last year no fewer than 78 full-length pic- tures were trade shown. About 33 films were exported to the United States, and American imports in- to this country decreased appreci- ably. Not since pre-war days, when the British film held its own all over the world, has there been s0 much activity, Nor has business in the threatres been affected in- juriously by the increased npmber of home-produced films. On the contrary, during the 1928 Christ- mas period in London all records were broken. Since the new Films Act came in- to force British production in most quarters has been placed on a bey ter business basis. The combina- tion of production, distribution, and exhibition in one hand is evi- dence of a tightening of control and more careful administration. Nevertheless, much remains to be done. British producers have not learned yet how to organize help- ful publicity, or to centralize re- sources (such as furniture proper- ties, players, technical equipment). There is too much diffusion of ef- fort where no competition is desir- able, with the result that British pictures, for the results obtained, are too expensive. The other great problem con- fronting the British producer is common to every studio through- out the, world--the provision of suitable stories. The work of find- ing them is never completed. The amount of material to be sifted cannot be measured. The number of novels, plays, and short stories read, synopsized, and filed by a scenario department in a year run® into thousands. Every author, young and old, is appraised. Yet with all this effort it does mot ap- pear that many new authors of re- pute have become screen play- wrights.

WOULD GIVE INDIANS MORE RESPONSIBILITY Indians cannot always live apart on reserves. One of the biggest problems is to train them in trade and farming, and otherwise fit them for vocations beyond the fur trade. This is the opinion formed from first-hand experience by Archdeacon F. T. J. Paul of Stur- geon Valley, Sask. Archdeacon Paul, in a recent statement on the work of Anglican missionaries among Indians in the north, said further that the northern Indians were more fully Christianized than those on the reserves of the south- pith al with easy terms $4650 Close to Motors THE Disney Real Estate 20 King St. E.
