Movies for Americans Urqed
By Playwright Lillian HeIImon
Soys Hollywood Should
Give Up Attempt to
Hold Foreign Market

Hollywood producers must start
making pictures for Americans in
stead Of striving to hold on to the
rapidly declining foreign market,
Playwright Lillian Hellman be-
lieves.
Author Of the current Broadway
hit play, "The Little Foxes" and
"The Children's Hour" and scenar-
list Of half a dozen movies, Miss
Hellman talked about movie CEN
sorship yesterday after speaking
briefly at the Conference of One
Hundred. now meeting at the
Shoreham Hotel.
She cited "The Forty Days of
Musa Dagh," which was sacked be-
cause Of Turkish protest, and
Idiots Delight" which had to be
revised to please Italy, as exam
pies Of the growing censorship in
movies.
I've have to cut lines and chance
Ideas" she explained. There's
even an understanding that movies
shouldn't center around the Revo-
lutionary War for fear Of offending
Great Britain"
Her solution of the problem was
the production of the kind of
movies Americans particularly want
to see. She predicted that the
movie-going public will start de-
manding pictures that mean some
thing to them.
She explained her activities for
peace and those of many of her
fellow actors, writer's and directors
were the result Of their feeling that
artists can't remain outside" the
problems of country. She cited
what has happened to the artists in
relationships as examples of the
nearness of the government to its
artistic element.
After she leaves Washington, Miss
Hellman plans to take her first vaca-
ton in seven years.
Her few words on the platform
were delivered in a brisk. Fortnight
manner as she pledged the support
OF Hollywood to any action for peace
taken at the conference.
