30.-A professor of drama from Chi

man, today called upon the motion
picture industry ito become the ally
and not the enemy of the school and
church in developing the culture OF
America and the world"
Eastman spoke at forum on the
motion picture at the Institute of
Human Relations, which began
week-long conference here last night
to consider public opinion in
democracy"
Eastman took to task the men con-
trolling the movie industry who, he
said, had until recently too little re-
gard for the effect of their pictures
upon the minds and character of the
people who saw them and too little
sense Of responsibility for protecting
Americas good name abroad"
Criticism of the movies also came
from DR.. Edgar Dale of the Bureau
Of Educational Research of Ohio Uni
versity for the industry's portrayals
Of racial and vocational stereotypes.
Dale gave as examples of what he
-classed as harmful stereotype por-
trayals the motion picture version of
newspaper men, the "money-grasping"
Jew and the Negro comic.
Eastman offered four suggestions
TOR getting better pictures: Keener
selectivity OF pictures on the part of
the moviegoer, community education
IN motion picture appreciation, elimi-

and empowering the State Depart
ment to withhold pictures which 20
