STINNES IS EMBARKING
ON NEW VENTURES
BERLIN, Mar. 17—Like his fath
er before him, Dr. Edmund Stinnes,
youthful head of the far-flung Stin
nes concern, is reaching out for new
worlds to conquer.
Inheriting from his father, Hugo
a virtual empire of iron and steel
and coal, of ships, hotels and estates,
Dr. Edmund Stinnes has now
stretched forth his domains into new
lands and hitherto untouched realms.
The Stinnes’ concern’s latest ven
ture is the welding of a great Eu
ropean film trust, the purpose of
which is to fight the ever growing
inroads of the American film trade.
Stinnes’ great Westi Film company
has now linked itself with the
French Pathe consortum and is
seeking a further union with the
big Austrian Vita film company.
Vesti and Pathe have concluded an
agreement whereby the Westi
production is distributed through the
Pathe organization in Switzerland,
Holland, France, Spain, Belgium and
Egypt, while through the Westi or
ganization into Germany and its al
lied distribution territories. At the
same time, Stinnes has joined his
German concern with the Danish
Paladium company to distribute the
“funnies” of this Scandinavian out
fit.
As a writer in the “Berliner
Borsen Courier” expresses it, Stin
nes is now seeking to make an in
ternational syndicate in film trusts
as he has sought to internationalize
iron and steel—with himself in the
ruling position.
It is estimated that the Stinnes
concern’s' foreign holdings now in
clude at least 150 enterprises; how
many concerns he dominates in
Germany, only Stinnes himself
knows, but he is king over fully
as many enterprises as abroad.
After the death of his father, Dr.
Edmund Stinnes concentrated his
attention on extending his internal
holdings, and perfecting the links in
the great industrial chain his fa
ther had forged. This led the young
man—he is in the thirties—to buy
more concerns or to gain the

dominating power over shares in
desirable companies so that the Stin
nes production and distribution fac
ilities might function faultlessly.
However, in the last three or four
months, Stinnes has paid a greater
attention to the foreign field. In
Czecho-Slovakia, for instance, the
Stinnes concern has acquired the
Krompacher Works, producers of
j iron and copper. At the same time,
Stinnes obtained an interest in the
Anglo-Belgian Coal Company of
Belgium which earns dividends thru
supplying with bunkercoal the ships
that touch at Antwerp.
Not satisfied with these two fields,
the young man started negotiations
with the Norwegian government to
obtain the privileges of exploiting
!the great waterfalls at Glomford,
(where Stinnes proposes to erect one
I of the biggest power plants in Eu
| rope.
Inside Germany, Stinnes, hitherto
Ithecont rolling factor in the great
Rhein-Elbe, has strengthened his
position by internal shifts in this
concern. That is to say, the Boehler
Steel Company, belonging to the
i Rhein-Elbe, is forming a trust with
in a trust, swallowing up the Berlin
I and Austrian interests of the
Boehler concerns into a Swiss-Boeli
| ler Trust. In this development, Stin
nes also plays a prominent role.
Further, Stinnes widened his steel
| kingdom within Germany by form
| ing a “community of interest” with
! the noted ‘Baroper Walzwerk,’ where
by the Stinnes concern obtains the
sole right of distribution of the Bar
oper products for a quarter of a
century.
Stinnes also has his hands in oil,
The father knew that oil is the key
to much of modern industrial de
velopment and the son is grabbing
where he can new oil interests. For
instance. the Stinnes-Riebeck-Mon
tan-Gesellschaft, which represents
| the oil interests of the Stinnes eon
• cent in general has now extended its
! realm of interest to the ‘‘Hansa
Erdoel Company.”
Last, not least, the Stinnes Com
pany (Muelheim-Ruhr) has opened
a great branch at Bremen, the
manifest purpose of which is to link
Stinnes more closely with a sea out
! let.
Stinnes’ interest in the foreign
field is enhanced by the fact that
with the 10th of January some of the
barriers to German commerce under
: the Versailles treaty fell. Stinnes
| planned his developments so, that
| with the coming of a new unres
| tricted trade area, he would have
! markets for his vast production.

TOMB AT GIZA
IS OLDER THAN
KING TUT VAULT
BOSTON, March 18— A cable was
received here today from the Harvard
Boston expedition, excavating in the
Northern part of Africa, definitely es
tablishing the age of the tomb just
uncovered near the Giza pyramids.
According to Dr. Reisner, it is 1700
years older than the tomb of Tut and
was erected about 3,000 years B. C.
FORMER CIRCUS STAR
IS FOUND PENNILESS
NEW YORK, Mar. 17.—Many years
ago a blue-eyed, flaxen-haired girl
went to Adam Forepaugh and applied
for a position as equestrienne in his
circus. She got the job.
Today Mrs. Anna Jackson, that girl
of circus fame, was found in a cold,
hare room, facing eviction. She is
white haired and bent and eightv-two
now. A pathetic news item sent Mrs.
Mary Morrison to her.
i
Mrs. Morrison promised to see her
landlord, ,who is Congressman Bloom,
and to try to get some assistance for
her from the Actors’ Relief Fund.
