HORRORS OF WAR.
DEAD AND DYING MEN IN A FILM.
BATTLE FRONT SCENES.
Berlin's great cinema theatre,
filled the U.F.A. Palace, was
to capacity when the first part of Ger- many's official film history of the war, "Welt-Krieg" was presented to the public.
The production is the work of two ex-officers' who are now custodians of the State archives. It is cati- mated that the total length of the film will reach twenty réels, of} which about seven were shown.
The pictorial sequences consisti almost wholly of films taken on the various battle fronts by Germany's beat and bravest cinematographers. They have been assembled in a munner that presents the war as a contínuous and comprehensive story, as written in the hearts and minds of the German people,

A Trial Order is Solicited.
It is not a propagandist produe- tlon, except in the sense that it re-
knew, and saw it. It suggests that Germany regarded the war as in! evitable, though admittedly pro- voked by the murder at Sarajevo, and it slurs over the invasion of Belgium. Apart from these points, there is nothing to which the ex- enemies of Germany could take ex- ception, and there is much that is profoundly interesting, heroic, and admirable.
This is a film that should end war, although the scenes of which it is composed were originally taken for the purpose of advertis- Ing war as "made, In Germany."
It shows men being slaughtered like flies. The big shells-British and Frerich shells-burst in crowd- ed trenches and when the smoke passes the men have disappeared. Nothing remains of them but sinis- ter debris Agonised faces. flush neross the screen. The distraught eyes, and open mouths tell their
