This propaganda is not subject to any special legislation, but is carried on by the free initiative of the Health Institutes and Associations mentioned above.
The Zagabria Hygiene Institute has its own Cinematographic Section, which provides in considerable measure for the production of the requisite films. Recourse is also had to foreign films for this purpose.
Latvia :
Film propaganda on hygiene and social welfare is not subject to any legislation in Latvia ; nor is it centralized in or organized by any Government department.
Films dealing with the matter are, however, shown from time to time in the public cinema halls and are accompanied by lectures of a popular kind.
The programs of instruction in secondary schools are now in course of being reorganized, and it is intended to include propaganda in matters of public health and social welfare in the new curricula.
A special law requires all primary and secondary schools to include anti-drink propaganda in their curricula.
All requisite films are imported from abroad.
THE ACOUSTICS OF SOUND RECORDING ROOMS
In dealing with this subject, one must of necessity be concerned with general considerations. Each sound recording room presents special problems calling for particular solutions, which arise from conditions that are imposed by necessities which are quite other than acoustical. In the particular case, therefore, the designer of a sound recording studio has to include in his general design problem the special conditions that must be met in order to record sound faithfully, and free from extraneous noise.
The first of these general considerations to be urged is that the matter of acoustic conditions be included from the very first in the development
(Ed. Note). The International Educational Cinematographic Institute does not propose to narrow down its interest in technical questions solely to the strict domain of the cinematograph; all technical problems of special interest which have even an indirect bearing on the cinema will claim its attention.
For this reason, we have pleasure in publishing herewith an article on the acoustics of sound recording rooms from the pen of Mr. Paul E. Sabine.
