MOpieS Helped Combat
Hun Propaganda in War

constituted almost our most serious
problem We found that the real rea
son so many neutrals were pro-Ger-
man was the fact that they wore be-
ing fed pro-German films. In com
batting this condition we were as :
sisted by the difficulties most motion
picture producers found In obtaining
films from Germany. After our entry
into the war almost 30 per cent OF
the films. the world over were Ameri-
can products. We used that condi-
ton to further our own work and to
present America in a more favorable
light in these countries.
The system was very simple. We
united all the American film produc-
ers under the division OF foreign pic
ture service Of the committee on
public information and arranged that
their exports to foreign countries
were TO be regulated by that division
The result was thar we were In a
position to compel foreign motion
picture exhibitors to give America a
square deal in their productions. In
the first pis-e. We cut out German
Propaganda entirely. substituting Am
erican propaganda instead"
