GRIMM'S STORY
Walt Disney, creator of Mickey Mouse, is experimenting further with the cartoon' film, and is now making a full-length fairy-tale flim of Grimm's "Little Snow White." It will take 18 months to makė, and cost £50,000.
The elaborate process of produc- tion of the "Silly Symphonies," Is described in Fortune, în American magazine,, as follows:-
When the idea has been worked out tentatively by Disney and his assistants, it is turned over to the "writers." who produce sequences of pictures telling the story roughly, while the composers think about. appropriate munte.
After the final conference on ideas the backbone of the film be- comes the "work chart," on which appears a set of symbols for overy picture in the 50-foot film-to-be.
These pictures, or "frames," are calculated to move through the pro- jector at a uniform rate of 24 frames a second. The number of frames la carefully adjusted so that each "beat" of the musical score is made to fall on a definite frame.

Bulgarian Terrorists Dislodged
·DICTATOR BREAKS THEIR POWER
IMROS' CHIEF ∙A FUGITIVE
Reports trickling through the censor from Sofia indicate Bul- garia's new dictator has crushed the long-dreaded "Imro", or secret Macedonian Rivolutionary Party.
Their leader, the fiery M. Ivan Michailov, popularly known as "Little One", or Jack, has fled into Turkey and his followers are being mercilessly tracked down,
The man who dared to do this is General Kimon Georghioff, Bul- garia's now premier and dictator. In less than three months he has accomplished what no other Bul- garian statesman would have dreamt of trying.
Before General Georghief took over the Bulgarian government by n bloodless coup d'etat on May 18. the very name of "Imro" made Bulgarians shudder. M. Ivan Michailov, at the bead of a small but fearless group of revolutionary fighters, struck terror whorever ho The "action" of the films must be
