ROMK, Dec. 25. Reports from
Berlin of dissatisfaction over the
treatment of German-speaking in-
natiitants or south Tyrol by the
Italian authorities have brought an
outbreak of violent anti-German
sentiment In Rome.
The extreme fascist newspaper
Impero publishes a long editorial
entitled "Our Instinctive Racial
Enemy" in which it outlines the
Ital an policy to keep control of
south Tyrol In perpetuity and re-
garas lirenner pass as a sacreu na
tural boundary.
I'.aly to' Bo Ahead t
The article ' warns ' Italians
against the 'renewed activities of
Germans in commerce and de
clares that "Italy will never play
second f ddle to Germany again.'
The Imptero explains that there
was another excuse for Italy's tak
ing second place to Germany when
Italy was a secondary power, but
now, it asserts, Italy as a power of
the first order can no longer en
tertain .the Idea of ., being Ger

German Policy Given
The paper goes on to say that
Italy's policy toward Germany
must embrace the following con

continues to make a lively Issue
of the ascendancy of Ameiflean
films in the British Isles. The re
cent adverse vote of movie theater
owners on-the question of making
compulsory the exhibition of u
fixed proportion of British films
In British houses has, however,
thrown a new light on the prob
lem and halted action.
The British exhibitors would pre
fer British films if they were equal
to American films and had as good
drawing power, the vote made per
fectly clear. But the men who nip
the theatres. Indicated plainly that
the compulsory exhibition of Brit
ish films would, in their opinion
lessen the receipts of film houses.
In other words. It would reduce
the Income the government .re
ceives from amusement taxes.
The government needs all it can
get from amusement taxes and
there is apparently less eagerness
to rush legislation which would af
fect the treasury.
Many prominent exhibitors have
said very frankly that the public
wants American films for the very
good reason that the British
makera do not supply films which
appeal widely to theater goers.
They have said also that they do
not see any prospect of supplying
a large quantity of satisfactory
British lines In the films, in th

Liberal Jews can see nothing' In
the statement of Dr. Stephen S.
Wise of New York as to the his

value of his teachings about which '
to take, offense, said two of the
Portland rabbis today, but one of
them felt that Rabbi Wlse'a resig

was a good, thing because of tho
feeling the .statement had stirred
up among orthodox Jews, v l .
"Most Jews believe that Jesus
was a historical character, that -he
actually Jived' said Rabbi Samuel
Sachs, head of the Zionist move
ment In Portland, rabbi of tho
congregatqn Zedek Talmud Toreh.
It wasn t what Rabbi wise said.
but the way that he said It that
caused all the feeling. - Ha said lt
too abruptly. The baslo - differ-'
ence between tne unristian and tne
Jew is the question of Christ's divinity.
- Appeal Has Following;
"Pressure from the orthodox
Jews was the only reason for the
res'gnation of Rabbi Wise," said -Rabbi
Max Merritt of Temple
Beth Israel. ; "The .United Palestine
Appeal has Its great following
among the ortnodox jews, wnose
feeling against Christianity , has
been . engendered by' centuries .of.
persecution. Rabbi Wise's biblical,
interpretations found- their . teac-J

are not far removed from those
centuries of persecution." . .- i

that he did not think the -commit-'
