This is on a full 900ft spool and is presumably part of a big film.
At the start it fades in to a group of Sheiks in a tent & then goes on with various scenes of Arabs attacking British soldiers, the war office in London etc. Sound stripe down the side but I only have silent projectors.
One actor in Arab dress appears to be English, A bit like Lawrence of Arabia but clearly not

Thanks Adrian, I just looked it up & see it was a
5 reeler staring Paul Robeson in what he considered to be his greatest role

so X2 on 900ft I expect

It was released in the USA under the title 'Dark Sands'

For anyone interested in 9.5mm sound films, Maurice Trace's fully detailed catalogue is a must have.
With regard to 9.5mm silent releases, it is a pity that the comedy section has not yet been issued.
