D. C., SEEK “MAN WITHOUT A COUNTRY” AS INTERNATIONAL MOVIE VILLAIN By the Assoclated Press. NEW YORK, February 13.—Ameri- can motion picture producers an- nounced here that if the “Man with- out a country” will consent to play the international villain they will make him the highest salaried person in the movies. The announcement was prompted, it was said, by recent threats of foreign governments to ban the films of pro- ducers who use one of their nationals as_the villaln in a picture. It hgs come to a point where Uncle Sam is the universal “goat,” they said, as the United States is almost the only nation to refrain from official action against the casting of one of its citizens in an unpopular role in the cinema. The consul general of China recent- ly asked for seats at a private show- ing befor? censors from several states of a “super picture” now showing on Broadway. He explained that his government probably would wish to protest the use of Chinese characters as villains of the piay. Abyssinia Makes Protest. In another picture recently filmed the unpopular roles were assigned to natives of Abyssinia. The Abyssinian government promptly lodged a pro- test, threatening to bar all pictures of the producers from that country and from other countries where it had influence. Mexico was the latest to put its foot THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, MOVIE FOLK ASK " FOR SQUARE DEAL stop the importation to Mexico of all films produced by companies which may continue to manufacture films derogatory to Mexico, even though the latter may bb destined to other countrie: 1ll-Feeling Engendered. It was intimated that ill-feeling to- ward Mexico had been engendered in Cendral and South American countries by pictures in which th: Mexican was portrayed as villain, “The trouble rests largely in the fact that pictures do not reach those countries until several years after they are made,” one producer explain- ed.” “When the United States and Mexico were at odds, in the years following 1916, the Mexican was a favorite character for the villain role. Now, although the two countrjes are friendly again, these ancient pictures are being dumped on the Central and South American market amd Mexico objects. ‘ “A" similar situation existed in China—in fact, in all foreign countries which depend upon the United States for their movies."
