 Until William Cardinal o'Donnell of Boston hurled q challenge to the industry three weeks ago. in which he termed Hollywood "the scandal of the world" the VIII Hays office had satisfied itself with keeping Aims within fair bounds of Gccency.
 But now the censorship has be- come more rigid. Six Aims have been refused an official okay dur ing the pust six months. as against six pictures given similar refusal in the i've years preceding.

 Codes

 Elimination of competitive bid ding, higher prices and oppression of small units throng the lumber aid cement codes threaten nation ai recovery.
 Effective regulation of teh petro- leum industry can be obtained on. iy through passage of the Thomas oil control bill despite praise worthy efforts of Secretary of the interior Harold l.. Ickes.
