For years cowboys and bounders with egg-toed shoes and padded shoulders represented American man- kind, to Europe. The British comic ‘papers and the British stage gave Europe its plctures of life in the United States. Then the movies came to the fore, and Europe insisted on having films which would not violate | .its notions on how Americans look and act. Films of conventional life in the United States apparently,do not appeal to European crowds. At .any rate they are never shown.
