Malaya's Own News Reel

LEAVES FOR U. S.

Laboratories. To Be Most Up-To Date In Asia

MALAYA is to have its own film and newsreel

company.

Before leaving last week on his way to the United States, Mr. L. H. Roos, who has just completed two Malayan travel films for a Hollywood company, told The Sunday Times his contract with the American firm had lapsed.

He was making a lightning trip to New York, he said, to acquire $43,000 worth of motion picture gear for # new company, Malayan Films, Limited, which at present was being formed. The nominal capital of the concern was $100,000,

Mr. Roos will be director in charge of production and general manager of the company.

The company is a private one, all the capital having been sub- scribed locally.

One of the directors is H.R.HI. Prince Sobhon Sasti, óf Siam.

Equipment to be bought by Mr. Rous on his arrival in New York will Include laboratory plant worth $40,000 and machine shop gear, to cost $3,000.

acquired are

TO-MORROW'S PICTORIAL FEATURES

To-morrow's Issue of £x: Telegraph Pictorial Supplement will contain many pictures of topical interest. Weddings illus- trated will be those of Mr. Nils Smedy

and Miss Elisabeth Aas- land, Mr. C. 1. Tan and Miss Emma Lim.

Amongst groups will be one of the past and present Directors of the Chinese Y.M.C.A. and another of the teachers and Kraduation pupils of the All Saints'

C.M.S. Girls' School. Those who attended the christen-

ing ceremony of the infant son

af Mr. and Mrs. F. H. Donnid will be seen in another group.

There will be two pictures of the dedication ceremony of the Hongkong Pentecostal Mission's new tabernacle; and other photo- Interesting graphs will Include portrails.

coverage of events in all parts of the country. Mr. Roos sald.

When the occasion demands, scenes will be taken on natural colour film. This material will be ideal for Malay, Chinese and Indian processions.

The company also aims to produce three Mainy feature films a year for audiences and one full-length Malaya feature film

year with Malayan background for world release,

"We will show Malaya to the world," Mr. Roos said when he mentioned that many shels from the company's newsreel would be released in other countries in lead- Ing American and British reels. The company's laboratories would be the most modern in Asta, Mr. Roos said. They would be able to handle 1,000 feet of negative an hour and 2,500 feet of print..

To ensure processing under per- fect conditions, the laboratory would be fitted with the latest air-condition- ing gear and water fliers, he ex- plained. These two features would eliminate the two main bugbears of tropical photography.

CORRESPONDENCE

Vicar's Attack On Christian Science

To the Editor.

Hongkong Telegraph.

Sir, Your issue of July 14 carries extracts from a paraphlet which {gives a very incorrect impression of Christian Science and of its dis- coverer, Mary Baker Eddy. May 1ị be permitted space tu correct these false impressions?

In 1800. Mary Baker Eddy met with a supposedly fatal neekdent. (She was healed of this by a revela- tion which came to her as she read the necount of the healing of the palsied man In the Bible. She realised then int there must be a spiritual law underlying the works of Christ Jesus and his apustles. Fur three years, she studied the Bible assiduously to the exclusion of all else and discovered the spiritual law which she gave

to the world in Christion Science. Frum that time, Mary Baker Eddy had no need of the serviers of doctors. As she Writings" states in "Miscellaneous 10 | (pugs 80): "Christian Science Mind- healing rests demonstrably on the bront and sure foundation of Science, and this is not the basis of materia medica as some of the most skilful and scholarly physicians openly admit." But Mrs. Eddy was always most grateful for the loving help sbe had received from doctors previous to her revelation and never scorned their honest attempts to help their !fellowmen.

London, June 21.

"Stand back. Let me go in. I am a younger man than you."

Shouting these words, a man of 31 pushed aside a would-be rescuer at a burning house early yesterday morning, dashed into the flames and smoke in an effort to save three children, was overcome by the fumes, and was later found dead.

All three children, who were in their cots, also perished:
