CHRISTIAN LOBBY FOR
MOVIE CENSORSHIP
Federal Regulation Urged by
the Rev. Wilbur +. Crafts
~ Spokesman.
HUGHES BILL SUPPORTED
Il Il Alleged That Uncensored
Pictures Promote Vice
and Crime.

WARRINGTON. March co.--rhe estab-
Nshment Of Federal censorship over
. moving pictures WAS urged to-day at q
meeting OF the House Committee on Edu-
cation.
The Rev. Wilbur +. Crafts, head OF
what is known as the Christian lobby
appeared TO urge favorable action on the
Hughes bill providing for the creation Of
4 Federal motion picture commission
which IL charged with the duty OF passlng
on all films exhibited In public.
The bill further provides that the cost
Of administering the law shall be betrayed
BY u tax OF 50 per 1000 feet on all Aims
that enter interstate commerce.
Mr.. Crafts was accompanied before the
House committee by the REV. Henry II.
Pringie, assistant superintendent Of the
Reform Bureau, and the Rev. William
Chase, PR sident Of the New York state
Civic League. A letter written by Samuel
Trigger of the New yorl; Association Of
Moving Picture Exhibitors indorsing Fed
er;,i censorship as proposed was read to
the committee.
Mr.. Crafts pointed out that Congress
had imposed n censorship on moving pic
lures when IL passed Il lan some time
after the Jeffries- johnson fight at Reno
prohibiting the transportation of prise
Minis in Interstate commerce. He also re-
called that In the new tariff law the Sec
rotary OF the Treasury Ia empowered to
prohibit the Importation Of Objectionable
moving pictures.
"A nationwide demand for more censoi-
ship" said Mr.. Crafts. ''is seen In the fact
that Ohio. Pennsylvania. Kansas and Cal.
hernia have ofYicial State censor boards
Ter motion pictures and san Erancisco
and some other cities have official local
censors. Manifestly II is fairer to moving
picture makers and exhibitors whose films
70 all over the country to have one ade-
quate censorship
1T Is also more satisfactory to those
seeking 10 guard moral interests. Moving
picture promoters and advocates of CEN
sorship laws both approve the establish
Dent OF an ofiicial national board.
The unofficial national board OF CEN
sorship OF moving pictures In New York
city has no power TO compel submission OF
Minis for censorship. and therefore does
not have opportunity TO censor all films
1T IL not necessary to multiply ev.-

fair sample OF multiplied testimonials
on tbs matter Is that Of Judge Edward
swami. who said 4 have had a great
many young people Of both sexes tell me
that they got their first suggestion to
commit crime from scenes portrayed In

This censorship board Is to add moth
ing to the burden Of government. The
moving picture men so far as We have
consulted them are entirely willing to
pay tax for the examination and certi-
hcation OF their nlms that viii cover all
reasonable expenses OF the commission"
bill similar to the Hughes bill il
pending In the Senate. 1t was offered by
senator Smith OF Georgia.
