Movie Firms O. K. Ruling
Consent Decree Reached In U. S. Suit.
NEW YORK, Oct. 23 (U. P.)— Five major motion picture producIng firms cited by the Government on anti-trust charges have agreed on the terms of a consent decree,
it was disclosed today in Federal court,
The companies were among eigh- . firms accused of monopolistic practices and blocking booking. Under the terms of the consent decree, the Government withdrew its point in hat it is improper for motion picure producing companies to be also ret distributors. The companies, for their part, promised to refrain from monopolistic practices in thé future. A modification in the system of block booking by which independent exhibitors formerly were obliged to rent a year’s output of pictures sight unseen also has been made. Independents will be allowed to see the pictures before they rent them ¢ and need take only five at a time. Judge Henry W. Goddard granted a8 week’s postponement to permit the U. S. Attorney’s office here to obtain the formal approval of Attorney General Robert Jackson. The five companies are Loew's Inc, Warner Bros. Pictures, Inc. RKO- Radio Pictures, Inc., 20th . Century-Fox Films Corp. and Paramount Pictures, Inc. The three companies not concerned in the proposed consent decree are Columbia Pictures, Inc., United Artists Corp. and Universal Pictures, Inc.

VICHY, Oct. 23 (U. P.). — The French Government has begun a
complete reorganization of the film |}
industry under the direction of six censors. Their aim will be to “educate and instruct” the people, as
well as amuse them. Films will be strictly censored, beginning with the scripts, then in the actual filming and finally in public display. Censorship of scripts will be for their fundamental tendencies. Producers will be obliged to furnish a full list of all actors and technicians collaborating in the film, and proof of financial capacity to make it. All adult films will be forbidden to children under 16 years of age. News reels will be strictly controlled. Movie houses will be forbidden to show more than one feature film any evening, to favor the showing on newsreels, travel and scientific S.
