Social Service Committee Recommendation (adopted)


1. That we deplore and condemn the salacious and immoral features characteristic of most of the motion pictures now being presented on the screen.

2. That we urge all parents to exercise the greatest care and diligence that children and young shall be kept away from the theatres when objectionable or questionable pictures are on exhibition.

3. That we approve the Brookhart Bill (S. 3770), which is now before the U.S. Senate, proposing to prohibit compulsory block-booking and blind-booking, whereby producers have compelled exhibitors to show their pictures without the right of choice; and that we give our support to any other legislation intended to prevent the exhibition of unclean pictures.
