Geared to meet wartime require
ments within hours after the at
tack upon Pearl Harbor, the motion
picture industry during 1912 under
took an unprecedented diversity of
responsibilities and activities either
directly or indirectly concerned with
the prosecution of the war, accord
ing to an industry-wide survey made
public yesterday.
The industry's efforts in Holly
wood and throughout the Nation
under the guidance of its War Ac-
tivities Committee, included large
variety of projects.
In the category of direct contri-
buttons to the war effort, the film
industry's production of training
films has won the high praise OF
ranking officials both in Govern
ment and the armed forces.
According to the most recent re-
port these training films, produced
by the various studios in rotation,
number 282 reels, covering lot sub
jects, which have been completed,
approved and accepted by the War
Department. Four additional films
have been submitted for approval,
81 are in production and II in prep
aration. Walt Disney, devoting 80
per cent of his plant facilities to
Government films, additionally has
completed more than 100 reels of
training subjects, most of which
are being used by the Navy.

lywood end of the industry, in ad-
dition to coping with its own prob
lem of diminishing manpower in
studio departments which utilize the
services of highly skilled technicians,
trained $50 motion picture camera
men and 176 still photographers for
the Signal Corps during l941, again
at no cost to the Government.
For reasons of military secrecy,
the industry could not report in de-
tail on the material furnished the
Military Intelligence Division, War
Department, through the Office of
Strategic Services. 1t was brought
out, however, that this material in
cluded approximately one-quarter
million feet of tllm clips showing
plants, harbors, beaches, landmarks,
etc, in countries with which the
United States now is at war, in ad-
dition to quantities of maps and
still pictures from studio reference
Libraries and other sources.
In the field of camouflage the
studios have provided experts from
the ranks of art directors and special
effects technicians, skilled in the art
of visual deception, to serve as in
structors and cooperate in working
out camouf1age projects with Army
and Marine Corps units.

An article explaining the func- tlons of the police force In the pro- lection of the city's children is ad- dressed today to the boys and girls of Waterbury by Patrolman Will liam c. Dwyer, safety instructor, as another step in the accident pre- vention bureaus safety campaign. It follows;
 Dear Boys and Girls
 am going to tell you few things about the policeman that works in your neighborhood that you probably do not know Well first of all, who is he; and what does he do for the childrenp He Is just another man like your dad only that his job is Q little different; he has to go out and break up your ball game for instance, that is If you arc playing on the street or If you are disturbing some of the people who might be sleeping days after q long night in the factory. Kind Of an old meanie you might say, but if all the boys and girls would stop and think for a moment you would then realize that most of the police men have children of their own and they know what Is best for your safety. We get complaints about children every day playing near some house where persons are i'll, You probably don't know that and you feel offended when he tells the boys or girls to go somewhere else to play. Then too, If you are play ing in a place that ile thinks is dangerous he will ask you to go else- where. This is being done for your protection and not because he is mean.
 Your parents pay the taxes so that they may receive police pro- lection; and this of course includes all the children in Waterbury. If you have any problems on safety ask the policeman on the beat; or if you know any dangerous places ex- istlng around the neighborhood tell him about them and we will try and correct 1t before some child gets hurt. Remember this, the police man is your friend and he is a pub- lie servant. We especially ask the smaller children to ask the police man to take them across the street if they are a little afraid of the traf- flc, or if it is 0 street where the trafilc is heavy. That is their job and we know that our relations with the children will be better if they will cooperate with us. The police man is not put out there to scare children, but to protect them and

 Orson Welles, who claimed he had spent six years in China and knew Mime. Chiang well, was fabbergast- ed when he drew no special recogni- ton.
 Adolphe Menjou, something of . linquist, asked the distinguished visitor how she felt-in Mandarin, offlcial dialect of China. Mme. Chiang's answer: "Okay."
