CZ OLYMPIC RULINGS OF FRANCE PROTESTED By HENRY L. FARRELL (United Press Sports Editor.) NEW~ YORK, May -23,—(United Press}—One of the primary pur- poses baci: of the revival of the Olympic games was to foster a bet- ter feeling among the nations of the world and to promote sports among all classes and Over a long stretch of years this princtple has been followed closely, with the result that better fc has prevailed in the last few 3 among tho athletic nations of t world than at any previous time in history. The trend of the times toward commercialism has been regarded as a menace to all amateur sports by students who have watched the purse replace the olive wreath as the most coveted token of victory There has also arisen the danger to that sportsmanship, which the amateur Idea seeks to promote, by the development of the “spirit that victory is the most important thing and that the means of victory have no restraint. Use of the Olympic games for per- sonal exploitation, for personal profit and for personal propagan was thought to be sure to come as a result of the tendency of the times and from the actions of the French Olympic committee, it has arrived. American newspaper publishers have protested to the French com- mittee and the American Olympic committee against the sale of all picture rights to a French concern. By granting a monopoly on the pic- ture rights, the French committee brought about a condition whereby the American press will have to buy all the pictures from the French As far as dollars and are concerned, no protest {s The market the pictures would be less th entailed in sending a her to Parfs fo; jority of the would prefer to buy thel from one of the Am n are grounds for 5 for the technical reason that the best of French photog- raphers could not have the eye for pictures that are wanted by Ameri. can publishers. The art of photog: rapby and the news sense in taking pictures ts just as local as the writ ing of a,news story. If the French committee sold the news story rights for the games the same theory would be involved as in the sale of the picture rights. Amer. can newspapers would not find the copy of a French writer suited thelr pecullar style than the copy of an American n¢ per n would be suitable fo pean journal.

Another message was sent by the committee to Col. Robert M. Thomp- son, president of the American Olympic committee, as follows: “The American press notes with considerable dismay that, apparently with your acquiescence, the French management of the Olympic games has given French concessionaire a monopoly on the photographic rights during the games.

The railroad rates to the stadium were increased 300 per cent, and a violent protest was raised by the French people against the extortion. It was suggested that French business should wait until the tour- ists arrived to boost the rates and not take advantage of the French people.
