NEW YORK, July 4.-The resigna-

executive committee of the National
Board of Review of Motion Pictures be-
cause of its policy of accepting funds
from the movie industry and his con-
Nction that 1t has failed "to give effect

known today.
DR.. Harris, former commissioner Of
health in New York City, criticized
the practice of describing all films AS
passed by the National Board Of Re-
view of Motion Pictures"
THE use of the word passed is mis-
leading because the board has no
powers of censorship" he said. Fur
thermore, many pictures are thus ad-
vertised before the board can function
or any of $50 volunteer reviewers have
even seen the films"
DR.. Harris said he meant to discuss
the situation, with the committee but
later decided to resign by letter be-
cause Of his impaired health. The
letter Of resignation was dated June O.,

Typical American Changes

Foreign observers note a marked
change in the physical appearance of
Americans within the last half CEN
tury. Fifty years ago the tall lantern
jawed man typified Uncle Sam. Today,
they say, the square-faced. stocky
business man of the Babbitt type best
typifles him.
