In the months to come" he said,
world conditions may cause the
motion picture industry to play an
even larger part in the war against
Axis tyranny
Government Not in Films.
Gov. Earl Warren and Lowell
Mellett, Owl Motion Picture Bureau
chief, also addressed the banquet.
Mr.. Mellett said:
There has been, at times, some

within and without the industry
lest in seeming to place themselves

hands, the custodians of this great
creative art might endanger the
freedom of art.
1T is natural concern. one with
which those of us charged with
carrying out the Governments half
of the cooperation have had full
sympathy.
Il can say now with complete
conviction, and I believe you will
support me in the statement, that
the Government has not trans
crossed upon the freedom of ex-
preston enjoyed by those who ex-
press themselves through motion
pictures.
