Another feature which makes the " Five " the safest and most efficient projector ever designed is the Drum shutter. Safe because it effectively prevents any possibility of fire in case of breakdown ; efficient because it permits more light to reach the gate. ★ The secret of mechanical per- fection in any projector is found in its intermittent movement. Only in the " Five " with its patented cross of improved de- ililti sign can it be said that absolutely flickerless projection has been achieved. The superb quality of a Waltur- daw performance owes much to its high efficiency arc lamp. The special profile mirror provides a collecting surface a quarter as large again as the usual 12 in. optical system. A unique carbon feed compensator smooths out all burning rate fluctuations pro- viding fully automatic control with most carbon trims. A de luxe sound system capable of utilising all the recent ad- vances in sound recording adds the final touch of perfection to its matchless sound and picture presentation.

GUL 5451 138 The Kinematograph Year Book. * See also the following provisions. t Goods from the Empire are liable to the full rate of duty unless they are eligible for a lower rate of duty under any of the following provisions. % Film shown to be a duplicate of film on which duty was paid at the ad valorem rate operative prior to 3rd May, 1948, and not wholly or partly refunded, is also admissible at the rate of id. per linear foot under this head- ing. 1f1f These goods are not deemed to be goods of any other class or description. (1) In the case of film of a greater width than the standard width of if inches, the duty chargeable is increased in proportion to the extent to which the width is greater than the standard width, and in the case of unexposed sensitised cinematograph film of less than the standard width, the duty chargeable is decreased in proportion to the extent to which the width is less than the standard width. (2) All sheets or strips of unexposed sensitised film which are of a length not less than 12 feet are, whatever their width, treated as cinemato- graph film. (3) The expression " exposed cinematograph film " includes all such film whether it is positive or negative, whether it is developed or un- developed and whether or not it contains or consists of sound track. (4) Two lengths of exposed cinematograph film representing the same objects are not deemed not to be duplicates of each other by reason that one is positive and the other is negative, or by reason that the objects are represented on different scales and the dimen- sions of the lengths of film are correspondingly different, or where both lengths are intended for use in the production of a coloured picture, by reason of any differences ascribable to the nature of the processes involved in producing such a picture. (5) If, in the case of any exposed cinemato- graph film, it is shown to the satisfaction of the Commissioners either — (a) that the production of the film was organised by persons whose chief or only place of business was in the United Kingdom and the producer of the film and all the principal actors and artists employed for the production thereof, except five, or, if the total number of principal actors and artists is less than twenty, not less than three-quarters of the number of actors and artists, were British subjects and domiciled in the United Kingdom, or {b) that the Board of Trade have certified that the requirements of subsection (3) of section twenty-seven of the Cinematograph Films Act, 1927 (which prescribes what films shall be deemed to be British films for the purposes of that Act) or of subsection (1) of section twenty-five of the Cinematograph Films Act, 1938 (which prescribes what films shall be deemed to be British films for the purpose of registration thereof under Part III of that Act) have been complied with in relation to the film or in relation to any film of which the film forms part ; the duty chargeable on the film is the duty, if any, with which it would have been chargeable if it were still unexposed. In this paragraph the expression " artist " includes the person working the photographic camera or other photographic apparatus by means of which the film is made. _ (6) Where two or more lengths of exposed cinematograph film are imported together and it is shown to the satisfaction of the Commis- sioners that they both or all represent the same objects and are intended to be used as a set, each complementary to the other or others, in the production of a coloured picture, and are not suitable to be used separately, they are charged as a set with the duty that would be chargeable if one length only were being imported : Provided that where the said lengths are not equal, the duty chargeable is that which would be chargeable if the longer or longest only of the two or more lengths were being imported. (7) Where in the case of any exposed cinemato- graph film security is given to the satisfaction of the Commissioners — (a) that no duplicate will be made in the United Kingdom from the film or from any part thereof or from any duplicate of the film or of any part thereof except for the purpose of preparing not more than three copies of a version adapted for exhibition in the United Kingdom or for the purpose of replacing any copy so prepared which is shown to the satisfaction of the Commissioners to have been destroyed or otherwise disposed of in such manner that it cannot be further used for exhibition as aforesaid ; and (b) that the film and any duplicate of the film or of any part thereof and all copies of any version adapted for exhibition as aforesaid will be destroyed or otherwise disposed of to the satisfaction of the Commissioners within such period as they may require. duty is chargeable on the film at the rate of one penny per linear foot. *(8) Where, in the case of any exposed cine- matograph film, it is shown to the satisfaction of the Commissioners — (a) that duty was paid on the film at the rate of fivepence per linear foot ; (b) that no duplicate has been made in the United Kingdom from the film or from any part thereof ; and (c) that no duplicate of the film or of any part thereof has been imported into the United Kingdom ; a rebate at the rate of fourpence per linear foot may be allowed if the film is destroyed or other- wise disposed of to the satisfaction of the Commissioners. (9) Developed negative or positive cine- matograph films which are certified by the Ministry of Education under Section 7 of the Finance Act, 1935, as amended by Section 4 of the Finance Act, 1939, are exempt from duty [see page 5, paragraph 15, of the 1947 Tariff). * In the case of film on which duty was paid at the ad valorem rate operative prior to May 3, 1948, this provision would apply so as to allow rebate of the amount of duty paid in excess of duty at the rate of id. per linear foot.

Baker THERE are more committees, Governmental and industrial, than at any time in the trade's history. The climax was reached in December, 1949 with the publica- tion of the Working Party report on production costs and the more important investigation into dis- tribution and exhibition carried out by the Portal Committee, which, on the death of Lord Portal, came under the chairmanship of Sir Arnold Plant. Both of these exhaustive reports have been the subject of detailed Kine. reviews. (See issues dated 1.12. 49 and 8. 12. 49.) The Year's Output During the 12 months ending December 31, 1949, studios will have wholly completed 66 first- feature pictures — a larger number of first features than at any time since 1939. Producers made 63 pictures in 1948. That was quite inadequate for a 45 per cent, quota. And no one can rightly claim that even the 66 features made this year are adequate for the full 40 per cent, quota ; but although the output is not what it should be it is well in excess of what many people expected. In addition to these 66 first features, our studios have made 21 second features. It must be remem- bered however that a good proportion of these seconds will be used next year by some of the smaller inde- pedent exhibitors as first features. So far, 43 of the first features have yet to be released. It is the quality of the pictures which in the long run is far more important than mere quantity. In his annual state- ment to shareholders last October, J. Arthur Rank said : " Unfor- tunately, many of the films we produced were not of a quality to ensure even reasonable returns." To some extent the policy of attempt- ing quantity output at all costs is reflected in the 1949 workings of our studios. We may well find that the quality of the 1949 pictures at the box office can in no way be compared with the entertainment value of the 39 pictures made in 1944. Perhaps the most significant factor concerning our 1949 output is that during the last 12 months there has been a steady change of production power, with independent producers coming more and more to the fore. Of the 21 first features made in the three Rank Organisation studios of Pinewood, Denham and Shepherd's Bush, no fewer than seven of them have been made by independent producers who, in the majority of cases, have had no more than a GFD distribution contract which associates with with the organisation. In addition, the Rank group has had four films from Ealing for release. Last year the Rank Organisa- tion, with the Ealing product, was responsible for 34 of the 63 features made in all studios. This year, the British Lion studios at Isleworth and Shepperton will have completed eight features. They made the same number last year, but during 1949 fewer films have been made in the studios by Sir Alexander Korda and more inde- pendent and American producers have been working in association with Korda' s London Films. Seven from ABPC Associated British Picture Cor- poration completed seven films at its Welwyn and Elstree studios. Last year it made only three. The in- creased output was made possible by the sound practical and financial working arrangements ABPC has with Warners and the increased facilities at Elstree. A further eight first features will have been filmed overseas during the year, with dubbing and editing 154 The Kinematograph Year Book. being completed in the parent studios. Four of these come under the British Lion set-up, being made by independent producers, and one each has come from Renown, the the Rank Organisation and ABPC. This business of making films over- seas is one of the significant develop- ments of 1949. In the past, pro- ducers have gone on lengthy loca- tions but few have attempted to make up to 90 per cent, of their final screen time on foreign location. Strictly speaking, therefore, the number of pictures completely shot (except for moderate location work) in British studios is 58. Independents' Product It is apparent, therefore, that 24 first features, and this excludes any second-feature product, have been made in 1949 by producers other than the major groups and those working in association with them. The American companies have made seven first features in Britain this year, excluding any account of the Warner tie-up with ABPC. This, however, is two more than the previous year. Last year the overall total of films made by independents, in- cluding the five American, was 18. Without doubt the increased inde- pendent output this year has been largely due to the financial support of the National Film Finance Cor- poration. Nearly half of that loan has gone to British Lion toward the production of a group of pictures by independent producers. In all, the Corporation claims that since its inception in July, 1948, it has directly or indirectly made it possible for 44 pictures to be made — at least 35 of these films, have been made during the period under review. Exchequer returns for the nine months ending December 31st, show that the N.F.F.V. had taken ^4,130,000 from the Treasury of its authorised loan capital of £5 million that returned no more than ^6,000. This Government finance organisa- tion has been criticised on several counts during the year. It has been accused of lending money to companies which are not making " box office " films, of lending money to companies which have little chance of maintaining con- tinuity of production, of lending money to companies going outside Britain to make pictures, and of lending money for making, of all things, television programmes. Much of this criticism may be to the point, but the Corporation has done a good job of work. As regards the employment situa- tion in the studios in the first week of December, a total of 5,317 people were employed. During the pre- vious six months about 300 persons had been dismissed from the Rank Organisation group of studios and the organisation had brought into operation a " staff pool " to service Denham and Pinewood. The total employment in December was 5,017, compared with 5,219 in March. The Joint Production Advisory Committee — the parent body of the studio works committees, together with the British Film Producers' Association — decided at its annual meeting early in 1950 to release details of employment figures for publication. The figures are almost identical with the check made for the trade by the Kine, and published every three months in our Studio Review since June, 1946. Employment The returns are for persons em- ployed by feature production com- panies. The Kine figures have included persons employed by some of the smaller studios and feature production groups not mentioned in the BFPA statistics. The BFPA figures show that 4,431 persons were employed during the quarter ending December 31, 1949. The BFPA document shows that the peak employment of 7,739 in December, 1948, dropped for each quarter to 5,397, 5,882, 5,693 and down to the lowest so far of 4,431. The grade-by-grade break down of the last return shows that 33 are ex- pected to be made redundant by March next, while other studios British Production. 155 THE PAX-PENDENNIS ACTION DRAMA "TWENTY QUESTIONS MURDER MYSTERY" directed by Paul Stein THE EDMOND CREVILLE TRUE-TO-LIFE STORY "BUT NOT IN VAIN" and following future productions "MADAME TIC-TAC" from the play by Dr. Falkland, L.

One of the weaknesses of the recent Working Party report was that the committee confessed to be unable to obtain accurate details of employment. The Kine, has en- joyed the co-operation of studio managements in making these re- turns since 1945. The records, as set out in the tabulations, show that total employment has dropped alarm- ingly since the peak of 7,618 in March of last year. What does remain a mystery is that more films have been made this year when our total employment has never been above 5,220 than when, as in 1948, it never dropped below 7,000. It would appear that studios have been grossly overstaffed, or underworked ! But the real issue which affects everyone — producer, technician and craftsman, is whether or not the pictures we make will recover their money. That is why the Working Party and the Plant Committee were put to work in the autumn of 1948. The former committee has recom- mended to the President of the Board of Trade ways and means by which producers can cut their costs. The latter committee has made recommendations, very important recommendations, concerning the economic affairs of the industry after the pictures are made. Producers have now the task of cutting costs : there is little they can do themselves to implement the Gater Committee proposals. The task of cutting costs is no easy one and the Working Party report with inadequate facts and a split of opinion within the committee, has not taken us very much further towards solving this most difficult problem. It spoke vaguely about the need to increase speed of production, building up the amount of screen time which is shot every day. This is already being done. An analysis made by the Kine. of 42 of the first features completed this year shows that films are now being made in 10.3 weeks — or about 51 shooting days. This is still not swift enough but it compares well with the average of 12.4 weeks (based on 54 films) for 1948 and the alarming average schedule of 14 weeks for 1947 — when for a great part of the year the studios were working to a five and half day week. I think this average schedule is a more reliable figure than the " average screen time per camera day " cal- culated for the Working Party, because screen time shot per day can vary so much with the type of work in hand. What really matters is that films generally are made to CAMERA HIRE SERVICE PHONE: GER. 1365-6-7-8 NEWMAN SINCLAIR MODELS A' & 'E' WITH FULL RANGE OF EQUIPMENT AND TRIPODS ALSO NEWMAN HIGH-SPEED CAMERA ALL ENQUIRIES: S.F.L.

Eight weeks should be our target, and at the rate of progress so far we should make it next year. What happens in 1950 will have more far-reaching effects on pro- duction than at any period since the inception of the first Films. Act in 1928. It is to be hoped that any decisions made by the Government will prove of . greater advantage to production than the Films Acts which, originally set up as a tem- porary measure, have, during the past 20 years, been administered by successive Presidents of the Board of Trade in a variety of methods— so far without lasting success. But the real blame can be placed upon the industry itself. The Work- ing Party was quick to point out the lack of sound planning both for long-term projects and for individual films. Production costs will only come down when continuity of production spreads over the high studio operation costs each year on to several pictures instead of just one or two. The Working Party blamed pro- ducers for inadequate labour relations It told the unions to play their part in making the five-day week work by cutting out impractical overtime arrangements and restrictive prac- tices. The whole labour question will be settled as soon as new agreements through the Joint In- dustrial Council become effective. There is a case — an overwhelming case — for a reduction in entertainment duty. Producers put their case to the Plant Committee for improving the allocation, of box-office receipts within the- industry and the com- mittee "set its face against anything in shape of the subsidy. . The subject, however, is one of urgency and some means must be found by which a proportion of the entertain- ment tax can be ploughed back into 'he industy. We could. feel more confident about the future of British film making if the Kine. were able to provide more details of future production plans. The sale of two studios this year cannot heighten confidence, reflecting as it does the lack of confi ience of. producers in their staff and of financiers in the producers. We now have 25 studios, 73 sound stages and a total of 632,986 square feet of space available for film making. I hope that Kine. reports in 1950 will indicate a growing number of plans, for vigorous, entertaining, and economical motion pictures.

HOWARD CRICKS, F.B.K.S., F.R.P.S. INTIMATELY associated with the problem of production costs is the much-debated Independent Frame process. Its sponsors claim — and their claim is to an extent supported by figures (*) — that it enables pro- duction costs to be reduced by a quarter, with no sacrifice of enter- tainment value. Against this, it is urged that it restricts the work of director and artistes and detracts from the realism which can be secured only by the use of genuine location photography and unfettered studio work. Although Independent Frame has been regarded as merely a collection of mechanical devices to speed up production, actually it is far more than this. Its originator, David Rawnsley (now out of the trade) (2) and the present managing director of the sponsoring company, Kenneth Bellman (3) have given very clear expositions of the process from two different aspects. It is apparent that its first axiom is the placing of pro- duction upon a businesslike footing, with no loss of time and no idle stages or staffs between production — surely a principle to which all must subscribe. Back Projection Whatever may be the merits of the system from the wider aspect, from the technical point of view it has resulted in the production of some fine pieces of studio equipment. Notwithstanding the disclaimers of its sponsors, I.F. has been primarily associated with the use of back- projection. B.P. has, as a conse- quence, been developed to a high state of efficiency. Both still and moving background projectors have been developed for the process by British Acoustic films. (4) The former employs a 300- amp. arc, producing 50,000 lumens on the screen ; the 5 in. by 4 in. slide is cooled first by water-cooling of the light beam, secondly by air- cooling of the slide itself. The moving background projector employs the same arc and similar cooling systems. The mechanism incorporates a camera-type feed, and is sufficiently silent to be used with- out blimping. For use on very large screens, or on sets requiring multiple screens, a triple projector has been constructed. (5) Mobile Rostrums Work on the floor is expedited by the development of a series of mobile lighting rails and rostrums. (5) The former, constructed by Vickers- Armstrong, carry lamps and crew, and are moved by press-button control. On the mobile rostrums sets are built and can be moved through the pre-production and production departments, which are features of the process. In this connection, reference should be made to the Spelleroller, a device introduced at Ealing Studios.whereby heavy pieces of scenery can be jacked up and moved about with facility. ( *) Important progress has been made in studio lighting equipment, notably by the now British firm of Mole- Richardson. (6, ') "The Brute" is a 225-amp. arc possessing numerous novel features ; a junior model, running at 150 amps., is equivalent to the MR. 170. The compact-source lamp has re- ceived wide attention. ' ' The Spectre and "Dumbo" are respectively a spotlight and a flood, employing such lamps, the former either 5 or 10 k.W., and the latter 1\ or 5 k.W. The control of light intensity is of particular importance. A series of Venetian-type shutters has been developed, with remote control enabling a whole set to be dimmed, or alternatively the source of light 166 The Kinemato graph Year Book. changed, merely by movement of a knob. For more scientific purposes, such as high-speed filming, Mole- Richard- son have produced a device, also incorporating discharge lamps, enabling a very high intensity of light to be obtained for a second or two. A modification of this system enables a series of accurately-timed flashes to be produced, as for light- ning effects. (The still photographer's speed-lamp has been used for this purpose, but its flash is of too short duration.) (8) A range of compact-source illumi- nators has been produced by G.E.C., including 140 amp (10 k.W.) and 35 amp. (2^ k.W.) spotlights and a 2\ k.W. floodlight. (6, 9) An experi- mental development in the G.E.C. laboratories is a compact-source lamp of the enormous capacity of 25k. W. ( 10) A useful device, also developed by G.E.C, is a compact-source hand torch, enabling a bright spot of light to be produced from a hand-held torch. (•) Compact-source Units Multiple HD Industries have a full range of compact-source units, com- prising 1 k.W. and 2\ k.W. floods, and 5, 7| and 10 k.W. spotlights. (6) This firm has, too, specialised in equipment designed to cater for the modern trend of filming in country- houses. (21) G.E.C. have during the year in- augurated a comprehensive lighting service, which provides mobile gene- rators and lamps, together with experienced personnel, for all types of location work. (12) The organisation which has long been at the sendee of Mole-Richardson customers has been extended to the Continent. (13) Various factors, including electri- city cuts and the growing use of colour, have encouraged the develop- ment of mobile generators. Outfits combining a large output with reason- ably silent operation have been produced by Ealing (8, 14) and by Lang Wheels, of Hillingdon — (the latter for Pinewood Studios). (16) Other factors calling for the de- velopment of specialised equipment are the trend toward production on actual location (14) and in country houses. (15) Turning to cameras, the G.K.- Newall is being adopted in studios of the Rank group. (17) A modifica- tion of it provides for single-film recording, a British Acoustic record- ing head being built into the rear of the housing. (18) The Vinten Everest camera is receiving increasing commendation both in this country and abroad. The Type II embodies a coupled rangefinder which, in conjunction with the reflex viewing system, affords the operator exceptional faculty in lining up his shots. (17) For innumerable out-of-the ordinary jobs, from scientific work to odd-angle studio shots, the Eclair Cameflex has proved itself invaluable, with its Meccano-like interchange- ability- of components. It is now available in this country, being handled by W. F. Dormer, Ltd. (17) A high degree of accuracy of exposure is, of course, necessary for colour work, and one source of error, discrepancies between light trans- mission of different lenses, is to be removed by the adoption of the T or transmission calibration system. (19) An early development of the newly reopened M.-G.-M. studios at Elstree was an excellently-designed camera crane. A similar, but smaller piece of equipment, the design of which was sponsored by A.M.P.A.S. (21) is now being manufactured in this country by Mole-Richardson. A heavy-duty camera head, em- bodying panning and tilting move- ments, and capable of carrying a Technicolor camera, has been in- troduced by Ernest F. Moy, Ltd. (17) A development which holds promise of revolutionising sound recording methods in the studio is magnetic recording. W'hile a number of firms are producing magnetic recording equipment of various types, and one firm, Leevers-Rich, has used a normal tape-recorder both for com- mentary and for synchronous re- cording, (22) it has been left to British Acoustic to experiment with the coating of the magnetic track upon perforated film, so assuring perfect synchronism (23) and to de- velop studio type equipment, under the name of Ferrosonic. (24) The advantages of magnetic re- British Production. 167 TECHNICOLOR LTD BATH ROAD • HARMONDSWORTH WEST DRAYTON • MIDDLESEX Telegraphic and Cable Address : TEC NI COLOR Telephone: WEST DRAYTON WEST DRAYTON 2211 TELEX 2404 168 The Kinematograph Year Book. cording over photographic are many. Quality is undoubtedly superior, thanks to the absence of ground noise — a volume range 10 db. better than noiseless photographic recording can be secured, while at the standard 35-mm. speed of 18 in. per second, or even at the 16-mm. speed of 7.2 in. per second, an excellent frequency response is obtainable. Economically, the process has the advantage that NG takes are simply erased and the stock re-used. The one objection of the process, that the modulations cannot be seen for editing, has been largely overcome by Dr. Kolb by modifying an editing machine ; bis ingenious process whereby the recording is rendered visible is intended only for checking the recording gear. British Acoustic have also pro- duced a complete re - recording channel. (2l, 25) It comprises a tandem - drive projector, running either from synchronous or interlock motors, together with dummy heads, all operated from an interlocking system, in the design of which B.T.H. co-operated. The channel is completed by an excellently designed re-recording console, a feature of which is that each reactive network is built into an easily detachable box, which can be interchanged for a network of different characteristics. RCA have had a busy year with studio installations. The equipping of the company's own studio at Hammersmith is proceeding as rapidlv as building restrictions per- mit. At the ABPC Studio, Elstree, (26) the Crown Studios, Beaconsrield (2T) and in Pathe House, Oxford Street, (2S) extensive installations have been completed, while Ealing and Nettlefold (29) Studios are being largely re-equipped. The Visatone portable recording channel has undergone slight modifi- tions, including the replacement of the twin magazine by single maga- zines, so that a smaller weight of empty magazines is carried. Refer- ence should be made, too, to the portable microphone boom marketed by Mutiple HD Industries. (6) Interesting developments have been made in the DeLane Lea post- synchronising process, features of COLOUR II The AUFA COLOl R Laboratories have been specially designed for the most modern system of colour reproduction. The ALFA COLOUR Laboratories team is composed of chemists and technicians who have the highest qualifications and particular experience in colour work. 1. ALFA COLOFR is a subtractive Bi-pack process with a special method of three-colour development. This process gives images of high brilliancy and transparencv combined with pleasing colour balance. 2. The ALFA COLOFR Service Department is the first laboratory of its kind able to process any colour process based on colour development (as Agfa, Gevaert, etc.) three-colour separation negatives and colour negatives and printing of colour copies from Bi-pach negatives.

A number of films have been given new tracks by this process. (32) A piece of apparatus developed for use with the process is the Dell Synchrola, an editing machine pro- vided with features which assure quicker and more precise cutting of sound tracks. (30) The range of Acmiola editing machines has been increased by the addition of a model which provides a 9 in. by 6 in. picture from the 35-mm. frame. (30) An invaluable gadget is the Leevers-Rich track reader, a small portable device which adapts to a rewinder. (30) The Ross Streemlite projector has been produced in a special studio model, with double-film attachment and special studio type gate. (31) It forms part of several RCA installations. While Technicolor remains pre- eminent in the colour field, a number of new processes are in development. Denham Laboratories have installed plant for the processing of three- layer materials — intended primarily for Ansco Color ; (32) advantage has been taken of this plant by Anglo- American Colour Photographic Pro- cesses to introduce in the Chromart process a range of materials, two- and three-colour, which, besides providing an excellent range of colours, appear to offer certain TECHNICAL (1) .

Dufaychrome is a process of similar type, (34) while a process in its present stage rather simpler is Alfacolour ; laboratories for the processing of this system, at present two-colour, but later to be three- colour, are being erected. (33) The outstanding development in the laboratory has been the intro- duction of spray processing. The economics of this method of develop- ment were the subject of a B.K.S. paper by Dr. G. I. P. Levenson, of Kodak, (35) while a machine of possibly the most modern design in the country has been installed by Vinten at the M.-G.-M. Studios, Elstree, for special effects work. The link-up between G.B. and Bell & Howell has resulted in the former firm manufacturing in this country a range of Bell-Howell printers, including the semi-auto- matic models D and J, for 35-mm. and 16-mm. respectively, and the Model E release printer, in which light control is effected by a quarter- speed travelling matte. (30) G.B. are also manufacturing a full range of Bell-Howell splicers, both 35-mm. and 16-mm. While the production of 16-mm. reduction prints is becoming of increasing importance, it is to be feared that insufficient attention is still being paid to the quality of sound, the problems of which were the subject of a paper by Malcolm Hoare, of the Kay Laboratories.

OPERATION-" LOCATION" Cook's Overseas Film Location Service was established in May, 1949, to assist Film Production Units in all their trans- portation and Overseas location requirements. This specialised Service under the supervision of James Willoughby, M.B.K.S., a Film Production Technician and A.C.T. member of considerable experience, has been planned to undertake the whole or any portion of an Overseas Location " Operation." The overall scope of this Service has been carefully organised to cover all prior advice and travel arrangements in connection with the choice of foreign locations, including the securing of Foreign Government approvals and local area permits, Board of Trade Import-Export Licences and the handling of C D 3 Forms, also Bank of England- Treasury currency approval and Exchange Control requirements. This service also covers the actual transportation overseas by air or sea/rail (including Air Charter) for the Unit's personnel, equipment and baggage, Customs clearance, overseas accommodation and local transport requirements, together with all location facilities and the supervision of an Air " Shuttle-Service " for the processing of both Technicolor and black-and-white film " rushes " in U.K. A Research Section has also been incorporated to cover location finding, for which a photographic library is avail- able, and to assist all departments of Production Studios and Units in regard to queries involving historical, geographical, climatic, racial and other local research data.

A YEAR ago, technical comment centred on two correlated subjects, non-flam, base and the draft Home Office regu- lations (1). The trade hailed the former as a tool with which to defer the coming into force of the latter ; the effectiveness of this tool is dem- onstrated by the fact that the draft has been deferred for reconsideration in probably a couple of years' time. Non-Flam Base It must, however, be pointed out that the new stock has not been accepted as non-inflammable within the meaning of the Act. However, informed opinion seems to be veering to the view, which I expressed a year ago, that a modifying Act will be passed, accepting the British stan- dard definition of safety film (2) as outside the existing Act, and enabling the Home Office to impose appro- priate restrictions. One must not overlook the fact that although the inflammability of celluloid film is the legal pivot upon which hinge both the present and the draft regulations, in fact the regulations cover many factors entirely unconnected with the film or any possible danger therefrom. The two non-flam, bases, Kodak tri-acetate (3) and Gevaert acetate butyrate, have, during the past year, been subjected to protracted field tests. After some teething troubles due to slight difficulties in splicing, the stocks have shown themselves for all practical purposes the equal of nitrate. In one respect these difficulties in splicing may prove to have had a beneficial effect : it is at last officially accepted that a joining press should form an essential component of the rewinding equipment. The C.E.A. technical officers have not been con- tent merely to recommend the instal- lation of presses ; they have made exhaustive tests, and have, as a result, recommended presses made by Cinesales (*) and Rigby (5) — both specially developed for non-flam, film, and marketed at very moderate prices. Any projectionist would welcome the Robot II splicer, which, by a double movement of two knobs, cuts and scrapes both films, applies the cement, and exerts pressure upon the join, all within three seconds. How many exhibitors will be willing to pay ^60 or more even for such a marvel of ingenuity and a fine piece of engin- eering, remains to be seen (6). Following upon the world-wide popularity attained by the G.K.21 projector in the larger theatres, and later the 20 (7), two new members of the family have been introduced : the G.K.I 9 and the 18, the last an outfit intended for the 1,000-seater, and selling at a competitive price (8). It should be emphasised, however, that all the units of these outfits are inter- changeable, and, for instance, a small kinema preferring an enclosed mec- hanism can choose the G.K.I 8 outfit with the 19 picture head. Novel Design After many vicissitudes, attributed to difficulties in obtaining materials, tne pioneer firm of Kamm has pro- duced a projection outfit of novel design known as the Vanguard; it is a piece of sound design and good engineering (9). Imperial, of Leicester, also have a new outfit (10). Both these, like the B.T.H. SUPA ("), embody within the two housings the whole of the equipment for projection and sound reproduction. A firm whose experience in the manufacture of kinematograph equip- ment is equalled only by that of Kamm's, is Ernest F. Moy Ltd., who now manufacture the Walturdaw projector. Another essentially British machine is the Ross, whose GC mechanism now forms part of the Technical Developments. 483 Streemlite outfit. The Simplex is of course handicapped in the British market by its American oiigin, but in the Westar we have an example of a projector of American design — originally the Century — being manu- factured in this country. On the Continent, the firm of Philips maintain their pre-eminence, their newest machine, known as the F.P.7, being widely used (12). The same firm has produced a particularly attractive 35mm. portable projector, which combines many novel features with an exceedingly high optical efficiency (13). A still projector which lives up to its title is the All-Purpose Lantern, marketed by Robert Rigby. It is designed to project slides and effects and, in addition, to project a sharp spot either on the stage or in the auditorium — the latter for instance to encourage ice-cream sales. One of these lanterns meets all the ancillary projection needs of the kinema (14). Two arc lamps have been intro- duced during the year by G.B.-Kalee. The President, which forms part of the G.K.20 outfit, has the novel feature that two motors are used, one feeding each carbon ('). The Universal, embodied in the 18 outfit, can as its name implies be immedi- ately converted for operation as H.I. or L.I., on D.C. or A.C.(8). The problem of the optical relation between the arc mirror and the lens aperture has been the subject of a number of articles in the American Press, and in the Ideal Kinema and British Kinematography . With one exception, the authors are in agree- ment that the popular view is erroneous, that an equal / value of lens and mirror means matched optics and maximum efficiency (13). Other types of light sources than the carbon arc have received close attention. The mercury-cadmium discharge lamp is widely used in the studio, and A. G. Penny, of G.E.C., has discussed the possibility of its being adapted to 35mm. projection — he suggested, for instance, that it might be flashed during the opening periods of the shutter, so halving current consumption. He concluded, however, that in the present state of knowledge, the carbon arc remains vTk World's First Fully Automatic yTk Urhr Splicing Machine NIK — > "ROBOT II" «— Joins any kind of Film ENSURES SAFETY AND EFFICIENCY Special Cement Supplied with every Machine THE GRIFFIN FILM ENTERPRISES LTD.

The discharge lamp has neverthe- less proved itself suitable for sub- standard projection, showing an efficiency far superior to that of the filament lamp ; unfortunately its lack of red rays mars the reproduc- tion of colour films. A new light source claimed to produce light the colour of sunlight is the Siemens gas-arc. In this case the discharge occurs at high current density through xenon. Although the efficiency is rather inferior to that of mercury, the improved colour may compensate for this Sound Equipment As I have long advocated, sound equipment today generally forms part of the projection equipment, rather than being supplied as a sep- arate unrelated piece of apparatus. In the two projectors mentioned earlier, the B.T.H. SUPA and the Kamm, the sound head forms an integral part of the picture mec- hanism, while in the remaining machines the mute and sound heads are separate units, and different makes of sound equipment can if desired, be used. The need for a high quality of sound reproduction is today univer- sally recognised, and modern equip- ment is seen in even the smallest kinemas. One outfit which is partic- ularly suitable for the small show is the Kinetechnic, which in a small compass provides complete stand-by facilities (1S). It is, however, gradually being recognised that the limiting factor in reproduction quality is the acoustics of the kinema. It has been claimed that the science of acoustics has made important advances in the past ten years, and that future kinemas may be expected to show progress in this respect. The French equivalent of the B.K.S. has made a study of the subject, but it is to be doubted whether its findings will be generally accepted (19). A long-debated question is, to what extent can stereophony improve the quality of sound reproduction ? I had the privilege of hearing music over a stereophonic channel in the Philips electro-acoustic studio in Eindhoven, Holland, and was satis- fied that the realism of reproduction was much enhanced ; it has been suggested that kinemas debarred from opening for films on Sundays might instal this equipment and run Sunday concerts for music lovers. But when we consider stereophonic reproduction of the sound accom- panying films, it must be remembered that to a large extent stereophony is already assured by the fact that the speakers are positioned just above the centre of the screen, where generally the cameraman places the close-up heads of his characters. Magnetic recording, both on tape and on perforated film, is receiving close attention in the studio, and should be considered by the exhib- itor who is anxious to provide inter- ludes of a quality superior to that of discs. The system lends itself to the recording of announcements and advertising items, which can be re- produced as often as desired, and erased when finished with. Arc Rectifiers In the field of arc rectifiers, a number of questions remain un- answered : should the rectifier be placed in the projection room or in a separate rectifier room ? Should the projectionist be able to vary the current to his arc or should it be pre- set ? Is mercury or selenium the f^LEN^ENA j 1 THE SOAPLESS CLEANSER 3 Has all the qualities of soap- 1 and more.

Should arc control be by tapped transformer, tapped choke, or resonance ? (20) The Nevelector, and the Hewittic Unitarc Major and Minor, are designed to be placed in the projection room alongside the projector, and to pro- vide easy control of the arc. Other Hewittic models, like E.C.C.'s Ecwe- lite, are designed for a separate rec- tifier room, with remote control. The latter system is favoured, although not insisted upon, by Westinghouse, whose unique resonance control circuit retains its popularity. The Screen Although modern equipment makes it possible for a picture of adequate brightness to be thrown upon the largest screen, there are still in many kinemas pictures which fall short of the standard of 8 f oot-lamberts (21). On the other hand, there is a small number in which the brightness materially exceeds the permissible figure of 16 f oot-lamberts, and in such cases nicker becomes a serious problem. An excellent practice adopted by G.B.-Kalee engineers is to adjust projection conditions to produce an incident brightness of 20 foot-candles, which according to the condition of the screen and the atmosphere is equivalent to a reflected brightness of 12 to 16 f oot-lamberts. While screen illumination is com- monly measured as incident light, the standard lays it down that the measurement shall be in terms of reflected brightness, but does not indicate how the measurement is to be made. A meter which should prove exceedingly valuable is the Evans electro-selenium brightness meter, which measures the integrated light received from the screen and reads in f oot-lamberts ( 2 2) . The question of screen surface is receiving renewed consideration. I hear reports of a new plastic screen giving, it is claimed, three times the efficiency of the normal matt screen, due to its directional reflectivity, which avoids light being wasted by being reflected outside the seating area (23). On the majority of screens the masking is made with square corners. Since the film frame has rounded corners, it would seem logical that the screen should also, and it is now claimed that the round corner is in- deed superior from the point of view of showmanship (21). Showmanship is the force behind recent experiments in the picture surround. In America, conflicting views have been expressed by Ben Schlanger, well-known theatre archi- tect, who advocates a vignetting of the picture edges towards a dark surround, and R. Gillespie Williams, the British lighting engineer, who favours a screen silhouetted against a coloured background (25). The latter idea is undergoing test in France ; in the Kolorig system the screen is supported in front of a larger screen, which is colour-flooded (■•). In a South London kinema, the Essoldo, Penge, the screen is placed in the centre of the stage, surrounded by a semi-circle of drapes which are illuminated from the stage battens. My personal reaction was altogether favourable (27). Stage Lighting The doom of the massive stage switchboard, which demands agility and stamina to control a large instal- lation, is assured. By the adaptation of thyratron control, Strand Electric are able to design a remotely con- trolled system with a control panel measuring only 36 in. square for 48 circuits. Since control is by vol- tage, and not by resistance or re- actance, variations in the loading of the different circuits have no effect upon the rate of dimming, while the load is always balanced on the three phases ( 2 8) . Fluorescent tubes, notwithstanding their wide popularity in other direc- tions, have never hitherto been found suitable for stage or auditorium lighting, because of the fact that they could not be dimmed. On the stage of the little Boltons Theatre, South Kensington, Thorn Electric Indus- tries demonstrated a system of dim- ming such tubes down to an almost perfect black-out. Because colours are produced by fluorescence and not by niters, the efficiency, particularly in the purer colours, is much higher Technical Developments. 487 than that of filament lamps (29). In the above demonstration, con- trol of current was effected by ordin- ary resistance dimmers. G.E.C. are developing the use of saturable chokes for the same purpose, enabling an insignificant control current to dim considerable lighting loads (30). The Auditorium The possibility of dimming fluores- cent tubes will of course render them suitable for auditorium lighting. A particularly attractive form of dec- orative lighting has been installed by Philips at the Metropole Palace, The Hague ; on either side wall is a motif in luminous tubing, which dims with the hall lighting (31j. A form of decoration which de- serves closer attention is the design in fluorescing paints, which, illum- inated from a source of ultra-violet rays or " black light ", seem to glow from an inner source ( 3 2) . An important advance in theatre seating is marked by the G.B.-Kalee Ambassador chair. This is less a piece of furniture than a job of engineering. Constructed from die- castings and stampings, its design permits it to be shipped to any kinema, where it can be installed on a floor of any make and in circles of any radius. Covering is re- placed merely by slipping off the old cover and fitting the new one (33). Stereoscopy It is being increasingly recognised that stereoscopic projection may stimulate audience interest and revive kinema attendances. This argument has been used by Edwin Wright, whose process, employing polarised light, is in my view at a stage where a little expenditure would make it a commercial possibility (34) ; but few showman will agree with him that a system which demands that every patron shall be supplied with spec- tacles of Polaroid — even though they can be obtained quite cheaply- — -can be successful except as a novelty. Entirely different is the principle upon which L. P. Dudley is working. His studio at Kensington is adorned with most attractive coloured stereo- scopic transparencies, which would make admirable foyer displays. The principle employed is that known as the " parallax panoramagram ", in which a lenticular screen placed in front of a specially photographed image gives a very convincing effect of stereoscopy ( 3 5) . The objection to the adoption of this system on the kinema screen is that at certain viewing angles the picture becomes " scrambled," but Mr. Dudley claims to be developing a method that will overcome this prob- lem, and make his system suitable for large-screen projection in any kinema, unlike the much -boosted Ivanoff system, which of course requires the seats to be very carefully adjusted in relation to the screen. Television To the exhibitor in the London or Birmingham district, television is simply a competitor — how serious he has not yet decided. It is very regret- table that, while large-screen tele- vision is making rapid strides in America, our own manufacturers are debarred from developing it, by reason of the inability of the Tele- vision Advisory Committee and the Film Industry to reach agreement on the terms under which 'vision pro- grammes could be shown in kinemas. Notwithstanding this unfortunate situation, there is every indication that British equipment leads the world in picture quality.

West, its vice- president, so tragically met his death) a transmission system was set up by Marconi, and the picture was reproduced on a 16ft. screen by Cinema-Television equipment ( 3 6) . Reports agree that the standard of reproduction was exceedingly high, and the demonstration was enthusi- astically received by the technicians present ( 3 7) . The equipment used was practically identical with that which at the end of the previous year had been demon- strated at a Bromley (Kent) kinema (38). On this occasion, a comparison between the B.B.C. transmissions and those from the Cintel studio showed the marked superiority of the latter, a fact which, in conjunction with the different programme needs of the kinema from the private viewer, suggests that if television is to be of full value to the kinema, the indus- try must be permitted to inaugurate its own transmissions. American Systems In America, RCA, employing the same principle of projecting the image from a cathode-ray tube, have made a number of kinema installa- tions (39). Paramount on the other hand favour the intermediate film system (first experimented upon, of course, by John Logie Baird) ; the image on a small receiver tube is photo- graphed upon film, which is rapidly processed and within 55 seconds is fed to a modified kinematograph pro- jector, where it is projected in the usual fashion (40). While this system has the advantage that an almost normal film is produced, which can be projected with a normal illuminant, and can furthermore be retained for projection to other audiences, it is nevertheless difficult to see how any kinema could meet the heavy running costs entailing a considerable footage of film stock, together with skilled labour. Films are likely to form an in- creasingly important part of tele- vision programmes. A difficulty, ad- ditional to those encountered in this country, has had to be overcome in America, due to the fact that a trans- mission standard of 60 traversals per second has been adopted. As a result, it is not possible to adopt the com- paratively simple transmission method possible in this country, which entails merely increasing the film speed to 25 frames per second to match the 50 traversals per second ; instead, in a system developed by RCA, the film is scanned in brief pulses, so that a film running at 24 frames per second can be scanned 60 times per second (A1). The same company has given an apparently convincing demon- stration of colour television, which makes use of an exceedingly ingenious principle. A number of years ago, of course, Baird demonstrated a system in which red and green images were produced simultaneously upon oppo- site sides of a translucent screen. Columbia in America, and Pye in this country, have made use of the sequential system, three-colour filters being rotated in synchronism before the transmitting and receiving tubes. RCA, on the contrary, makes use of a principle analogous to that of the three-colour process block. By an ingenious " sampling " system the three colour components of the image are transmitted in the form of successive pulses, which are repro- duced on the screens of three tubes, in the form of points of coloured light, the three images being optically superimposed (42).

While some of the equipment admittedly makes for ease of manipulation, others — notably television equipment — will demand a standard of skill rarely found today in the projection room. Although, the standard of showmanship in the kinema is far superior to that of a few years ago, it is still not without shortcomings. What is being done to assure an adequate standard of skill and know- ledge on the part of the projectionist ? The answer is at present, nothing. A couple of years ago, the C.E.A. approved a scheme — ^and, further- more, agreed to meet its not incon- siderable cost — for the inauguration BRITISH STANDARDS 880 : 1949— Concert Pitch (revision) 1479 : 1948— Use of Sound Level Meters. 1488 : 1948— Test-films for 16mm.

At the time of writing, counter- proposals by the N.A.T.K.E. await the consideration of the C.E.A., and it is hoped that an apprenticeship scheme may be shortly launched. Meanwhile, in defeated Germany — ■ actually in Berlin, divided by inter- national dissension — a well-equipped projection school is organised, where theory and practice are taught to interested projectionists (44). The British exhibitor has shown his desire for a similar scheme : seemingly it is the projectionist who has hitherto lagged behind, notwith- standing that nothing is better calculated to enhance his status and assist his career.

Data for Technicians THE COST OF ELECTRICITY. An electrical unit is equal to 1 kilowatt-hour, or 1,000 watts for one hour. To ascertain the consumption in hours per unit of any piece of D.C. apparatus rated in watts, divide the rating into 1,000 : e.g., a 60-watt lamp will run for 1,0004-60= 16| hours for one unit. The theoretical electrical horse-power is equal to 746 watts. For electric motors, a useful approximation is to reckon one unit per hour per rated horse-power. In the case of A.C. supplies, maximum-demand charges are generally based, not upon the kilowatt, but upon the kilo-volt-ampere ; the relation between the two terms is known as power factor. Thus at a power factor of 0.8, a supply of 1 k.v.a. is equal in power output to only 800 watts. The loading of cables must also be based upon the k.v.a., and not the k.w. con- sumption. Lighting and heating circuits (other than neons and other discharge lamps) have a power factor of unity ; the power factor of motors, arc rectifiers, etc., may vary from 0.6 to 0.9. It is advantageous to keep the power factor of such apparatus as high as possible. CALCULATING ARC RESISTANCES. The value of a resistance R to pass a given current C at voltage V is expressed, according to Ohm's law, by the formula — In calculating arc resistances, however, the value of the back voltage A of the arc must be considered. This may be reckoned as 45 volts for low- intensity arcs, and for high-intensity from 25 volts for a horizontal-negative mirror arc or 40 for an inclined-negative mirror arc, up to 65 or 70 volts for rotating-positive arc and 20 volts for A.C. arc. The formula then becomes — V-A The earlier studs of a resistance should be so computed as to allow the arc to be struck on not more than one-third of its full current. ORDINARY FILM CEMENT. Amy l Acetate 4 oz., Acetone 6 oz. This may either be used as it is, in which case the cement will be a thin fluid with not much more body in it than water, or it may be thickened to any desired extent by dissolving it in celluloid chips. Celluloid film base from which the gelatine coating has been cleaned off will serve. For non-flam, film glacial acetic acid may be added ; some users also add chloroform. It is, however, preferable to use the cement recommended by the makers of the stock — e.g., for Dufaycolor use Ilford cement, Data for Technicians. 493 MEASUREMENT OF SCREEN BRIGHTNESS Mount photometer one- third the height of screen, and take readings at each end, in the centre, and intermediately (five in all).

Leading Equipment Companies. 505 CINEMA PROJECTORS Following the outstanding success of the S/U/P/A projector BTH has developed a somewhat simpler version —SHJri for use in medium-sized and smaller theatres. This projector retains the proved features of merit of the de-luxe equipment, and the quality of performance is of the same high standard. The lantern table is de- signed so that other types of lanterns may be fitted if desired. The S/U/P/A (Single Unit Projection Assembly) is a unique achievement in projector design, far ahead of contemp- orary equipment. It is fully in keeping with modern appearance and with the tra- ditional high standard of BTH equipment. It combines in one unit everything required for efficient projection, whilst retaining easy accessibility in high degree. S/U/P/A gives complete protection against fire risks. In addition to 35 mm projectors, BTH manu- facture a 1 6 mm sound-film projector, Type 301, for schools, hospitals, hotels, factory instruction and travelling road shows.

FINANCE Leading Companies; Structure, Executives, Capital and Financial Statements s 546 The Rinematograph Year Book. Financial Review of 1949 by V. J. BURTT OUTSTANDING feature of the year has been the collapse of the greater part of the British film production in- dustry, involving millions of losses — Rank Group, £5,000,000 ; British Lion, £1,389,000 ; and other smaller sums. Since last April to year-end the National Film Finance Corporation had advanced £4,130,000 and had been repaid only £6,000. In market values of securities, over £12,000,000 of £30,000,000 of new money put up by private inves- tors since the war has been lost. Another £30,000,000 of value has been taken off old ordinary and preference issues since January, 1947. At the time of writing the industry was mainly sitting on its haunches and blaming the Government for the impact of Entertainments Tax. Independent producers appeared to be making more headway. Rank had threatened to stop production altogether next June unless conditions improved, and he hoped that before a decision had to be made on this " the Government will have announced an alleviation of the burden of Entertainments Tax." Losses Curbed Results of the Associated Talking Pictures group (Ealing Studios) in- dicated that losses can at least be minimised by careful pruning of production costs, and that at the same time it is possible to produce pictures of outstanding merit, which in more normal times might give very satisfactory profits. Sir Philip Warter's Associated British Picture Corporation group results for the year to March, 1949, came out before the rot really set in. This is another group which has gone in for a moderate film production programme. Trading profits were still over £2,000,000 ; net profit £433,490 against £505,838 ; and dividend 20 per cent compared with 22^ per cent. Whether they have been able to stand up to the stress of the rest of 1949 remains to be seen next July when the report for the year to March 1950 is due. The maintanance of the interim divi- dend at 1\ per cent, was regarded as a favourable portent. Economy, economy, and again economy was the watchword in every department of the industry. This in turn has affected Rank's British Optical and Precision En- gineers, Ltd. group, which produces practically everything needed for the studios and kinema. During quite a good year, following the great amalgamation, the parent company earned 11.8 per cent, and paid 5 per cent. But subsequently the 5 percent. Preference share dividend has had to be deferred until the accounts for 1949 are available. The half yearly Preference dividend of Odeon Theatres has also been postponed. Exhibitors do well Taken all round the purely ex- hibition section has held its own. Capital and Provincial's earnings fell slightly from 21.3 per cent, to 19.8 per cent, on the ordinary capital and dividend was reduced from 17^ per cent, to 15 per cent. Considerable discussion took place at the meeting about the desirability of marriage with the stable com- panion, Scophony-Baird, so as to be in the forefront of screen tele- vision. But this question was un- resolved at the time of writing. The Granada group actually in- creased its net profit from £74,995 to £84,145 and maintained a 7^ percent, ordinary dividend, earned twice over. Shipman and King earned a net profit of £63,824 for the 12 months to April 3, 1949, against £43,404 for the previous 10 months. Ordinary dividend was 5 per cent, out of earnings of 23.4 per cent. Sol. Sheckman has now linked up his Essoldo Circuit with the almost derelict Twentieth Century Cinemas Ltd., and put through a drastic reconstruction scheme.

Summary of Acts and Other Legislation. 564 The Kinematograph Year Book. The Legal Outlook by NORMAN HART, B.A. AS to what is going to happen Zjk in 1950 and the future, at any 1 \. rate, from a legal point of view, is very difficult to surmise. New problems seem to be cropping up every day, which have to be surmounted and I am afraid the position is going to be very diffi- cult, especially for the independent exhibitor. The exhibitor has plenty of energy and determination, but if he is con- tinually being penalised and new conditions and restrictions being forced on him the independent exhibitor, at any rate, will nave a very difficult time in carrying on his business. Determination is all very well, but licensing authorities have such powers nowadays that, unless the exhibitor carries out what they want, he is endangering his licence and may have it taken from him, without any reason given — and the exhibitor has no redress. Quota The question of the quota will need very careful consideration. As readers will by this time know the quotas for the year ending Septem- ber 30, 1950, are 40 per cent, for the first feature films and 25 per cent, for supporting programme films, except for those theatres which may be granted relief or exemption from quota under Sections 4 (1) and 4 (3) of the Cinematograph Films Act of 1948. The Cinematograph Films {Quotas) Amendment Order , 1950, laid before the House of Commons on March 10, 1950, fixed the first feature quota at 30 per cent, and maintained the supplementary quota at 25 per cent. I would particularly refer readers to clause 13 of that Act, which deals with the question as to whether or not the smaller exhibitor will be able to comply with his quota requirements. At the present time there is a shortage of British films, which is going to make things very difficult. Clause 1 3 of the Act deals with relief from liability for quota offences in circumstances beyond the control of the exhibitor and if application is made to the Board of Trade and they are satisfied that any failure to comply with any of the requirements of Section 1 of the Act or with any conditions imposed by a licence in pursuance of Section 5 of that Act was due to circumstances beyond the control of any person, the Board may issue a certificate to that effect. Failure on the part of a person to fulfil any requirement of Section 1 of that Act shall be deemed to have been due to circumstances beyond the control of that person if, owing to the character of the films available or to the excessive cost of such films it was not commercially practicable to fulfil that require- ment. The Board of Trade has, in my opinion, always been very fair and that is borne out by the very few prosecutions that have been taken. Application for relief should be made as soon as the exhibitor realises that he cannot comply with his quota. He should not wait until he receives notice from the Board of Trade. If he has failed in complying with his quota and has not obtained the certificate — which I have above referred to, he will find it very difficult to satisfy the Bench or the stipendiary magistrate that it has been commercially impracticable for him to comply with the Act. Today the Bench seem to require proof that efforts have been made by the exhibitor to obtain British films but without success and, as I wrote last year, I think the exhibitor will be well advised to confirm or keep records of all replies he receives from renters as to their not being able to supply him with British films. The exhibitor certainly gets it The Legal Outlook 565 both ways. If he does not show the films his patrons like his pay-box suffers and also his prestige. On the other hand, if he does not show his full quota of British films and he has not been able to obtain the Board of Trade Certificate of relief he is prosecuted by the Board of Trade and is fined heavily. In order to get his quota reduced an exhibitor must be able to prove two things ; (1) That films are shown in not less than two near-by theatres, which are his direct competitors ; and (2) that British films are shown in these theatres before the applicant is able to obtain these films. If he can prove the above and show that his net takings for the 12 months do not exceed ^100 a week he is entitled to total exemption. V aluation and Rating The old valuation and rating procedure has been altered by the Local Government Act of 1948. From February 1, 1950, all rating valuations will be carried out by the Board of Inland Revenue and Assessment Committees, County Valuation Committees, doing away altogether with the Central Valua- tion Committee. I would point out that, whilst the rating authority has no duties so far as the valuation work is concerned, it has rights of appeal against assessments. A Local Valuation Court takes the place of the Assessment Committee. It is formed by members of Local valua- tion panels constituted by county and county borough councils and consists of a chairman and two members. The Court sits in public ; evidence may be taken on oath but there is no power to award costs. One can appeal to the County Court against the decision of the valuation court ; such notice of appeal must be given within 21 days from, the date of the decision. There is. also a right for the parties, instead of appealing to a valuation or county court, by agreement in writing, to refer the matter to arbitration. Leasehold Committee The Leasehold Committee appointed to inquire into the various aspects of the law affecting lease- hold property in England and Wales has now issued its interim report. It is too lengthy to go into it fully here but it can be bought from H.M. Stationery Office, Kingsway, London, W.C.2. In its report the Committee deals only with business tenancies — namely, whether and in what cir- cumstances the occupying tenant of business premises, including premises used for any business, trade or pro- fessional purpose, should be given security of tenure such as is at present enjoyed by tenants subject to the Rent Restriction Acts and whether it is desirable and practicable to control rents charged for business premises and, if so, by what means. It proposes the establishment of a temporary scheme, the general prin- ciple of which is that an occupying tenant should have a prima facie right to renewal of his tenancy which is to be obtained by an order from the Tribunal which it is sug- gested should be the County Court operating through a special pro- cedure. Renewal would not, how- ever, be granted if the landlord proves the tenant to be undesirable or if the premises are reasonably required for demolition, rebuilding, etc. The terms of the renewal, if they cannot be agreed between the parties, should be fixed by the Tribunal at a rent which the Tribunal thinks reasonable in all the circumstances. It is proposed that , no one renewal should be for a term exceeding seven years but that the tenant should be free to apply for subsequent renewals so long as the scheme remained in force and tenants should be expected to renew for at least three years and that where a tenant has a weekly, monthly, Or quarterly tenancy he should be given a tenancy for three years, but it would be non-assign- able, during which period the rent should not be reviewed. Certain classes of property it is proposed should be exempted, but the Com- mittee went out of its way to state that there was no evidence to suggest that cinemas should be similarly excluded as theatres, etc. The Committee did not seem to be '566 The Kinematograph Year Book. in favour of compensation at the moment as it seemed rather to have taken the view that a business tenant occupied his premises in order to trade and that he did not wish to be compensated for being prevented from so doing. In other words it contended that a " sitting tenant " of business premises should have some security of tenure beyond that afforded by the terms of his original tenancy. However, until this Interim Report becomes law the only remedy at present lies in the Landlord and Tenant Act of 1927 and the procedure to be adopted on application for a new lease and /or compensation was set out in my " Legal Outlook " of last year. Entertainment Tax As readers know, this is one of the main disputes dealt with in 1949. It certainly is a very unreasonable and unfair tax. You can go to a theatre and see a play presented, but if the same play with the same artistes is put on the screen up goes the tax, and on a seat costing 2s. 6d. at a cinema an entertainment tax of Is. Id. is payable where at a theatre on the same priced seat tne tax would only be 3d. Again, anyone interested in culture can, with the assistance of the Arts Council, present a play and pay no entertain- ment tax at all. I say nothing about " football clubs," but why should cinemas be so burdened ? It would, at any rate, be somewhat fairer if part of the money was put back into the industry. This tax is crippling the whole industry and should be abolished. Licences It is impossible to foresee what further conditions may be put upon licences in the coming year. A particular condition, with regard to the safety of ceilings in places of public entertainment, has caused the exhibitor a certain amount of anxiety and, apparently, the procedure to be followed is : — (i) The licensee is required to report to the licensing authority when he proposes to redecorate or erect a scaffolding in the auditorium of his theatre. (ii) The theatre should then be examined by an expert on behalf of the licensee and a technical officer representing the licensing authority should be present at that examina- tion to ensure that it is as thorough as circumstances will allow. It must be remembered that the presence of the technical officer does not relieve the licensee of his primary responsi- bility for the safety of the building. (iii) If it is not proposed to re- decorate within five years from the date of the last inspection a special inspection should be carried out by an expert on behalf of the licensee and a technical officer representing the licensing authority. This in- spection could in the first instance be a visual inspection and if defects are revealed or suspected a closer investigation could be made. (iv) More frequent inspection should, however, be made in special cases where, because of the age of the building or where, owing to the construction of the building or some other circumstances, it is felt that there is more than the average likelihood that faults may develop in the ceiling. (v) Certificate in the appropriate form as to the result of any joint inspection should be furnished to the licensing authority. I do feel very strongly that a law should be passed so that licensing authorities should act in a judicial capacity and not as they do today in an administrative capacity so that an exhibitor could contest the decision of a licensing authority in the law courts. Today no appeal can be made against the decision of the licensing authority as they do not act in a judicial capacity. I would strongly advise that whenever possible the licensing authority be asked to meet a deputa- tion to settle any outstanding dispute. It is much better to settle it round a table than fighting it out in Court. On the whole, I have found licensing authorities quite reason- able and when I have appeared before them they have always shown me the greatest courtesy.

An Act to make further provision for securing the exhibition of a certain proportion of British cinematograph films, and otherwise to amend and continue the Cinematograph Films Act, 1938. (24th March 1948.) IJE it enacted by the King's most Excellent Majesty, by and with the advice and con- sent of the Lords Spiritual and Temporal, and Commons, in this present Parliament assembled, and by the authority of the same, as follows : — 1. Obligation of exhibitors to show British films. (1) Subject to the provisions of this Act, an exhibitor who, in any quota period, exhibits registered films to the public at any theatre in Great Britain shall include among the films so exhibited such British films as are required by this section in respect of that period. (2) Where the films exhibited as aforesaid in any quota period include films registered as long films, the film so exhibited as the first feature film shall, on at least the pre- scribed percentage of the number of days on which such films are so exhibited, be a film registered as a British film and as an exhibitors quota film. (3) Where the films exhibited as aforesaid in any quota period include films registered as short films, or films registered as long films which are exhibited otherwise than as first feature films, those films shall, to the extent of at least the prescribed percentage of their total exhibited length, be films registered as British films and as exhibitors' quota films. (4) In this Act the expression " quota period " means the year beginning on the first day of October, nineteen hundred and forty-eight, and each succeeding year during which this section is in force. (5) The requirements imposed by this section in respect of any quota period shall be com- plied with separately in respect of the first six months of that period as well as in respect of the whole of that period. (6) If any exhibitor fails to comply with any of the requirements of this section, he shall be guilty of a quota offence unless the Board of Trade certify under the principal Act that his failure was due to circumstances beyond his control, or the exhibitor proves that fact to the satisfaction of the court. (7) This section shall continue in force until the thirtieth day of September, nineteen hundred and fifty-eight, and shall then expire. 2. Determination of quotas of British films. (1) The Board of Trade shall, not later than the first day of July, nineteen hundred and forty-eight, by order determine the per- centages which are to be the prescribed percentages for the purposes respectively of subsection (2) and subsection (3) of the foregoing section. (2) Any order made by the Board under this section may be amended by a subsequent order made by the Board : Provided that no such amending order shall have effect in relation to any quota period beginning earlier than six months from the date on which it is made. (3) Before making an order under this section, the Board shall consult the Cinematograph Films Council and consider its advice in the matter. (4) The power of the Board to make orders under this section shall be exercised by statutory instrument ; and any such instrument shall be of no effect unless it is approved by resolution of each House of Parliament. 3. Supplementary provisions as to quotas. 1) For the purposes of subsections (2) and (3) of section One of this Act, a film which was first registered as a British film more than four years before the beginning of the quota period in question shall be disregardea unless, upon an application made not later than the end of that period by a renter having a right to distribute the film in Great Britain, the Board of Trade, after consulting the Cinematograph Films Council and con- 568 The Kinematograph Year Book. sidering its advice in the matter, direct that the film shall be taken into account for that purpose. (2) A film shall be deemed for the purposes of this Act to be exhibited as the first feature film at a theatre on any day — (a) if it is the only long film exhibited at that theatre during the normal hours in the ordinary programme on that day ; {b) if the daily rental of the film exceeds that of any other long film so exhibited ; or (c) (where the daily rental of the film is . equal to that of another long film so exhibited, and is not less than that of any other such long film) if it is the last long film so exhibited. (3) For the purposes of the last foregoing subsection, the total rental payable by an exhibitor in respect of the exhibition of a film at any theatre during any period (whether ascertained by reference to receipts or otherwise) shall be divided by the number of days in that period on which the film is so exhibited, and the sum so arrived at shall be deemed to be the daily rental of that film. (4) In computing for the purposes of subsection (3) of section one of this Act the total exhibited length of the films of any class exhibited at any theatre in any quota period, or in the first six months of any quota period, the registered length of each such film shall be multiplied by the number of occasions on which the film is so exhibited (otherwise than as the first feature film) during the normal hours in the ordinary programme. (5) A film registered as a British film which is exhibited at a theatre on any day shall not be deemed for the purposes of this Act to be exhibited during the normal hours in the ordinary programme unless the whole Of that film is exhibited at least once between the hours of five and ten p.m. (6) A film of which the total labour costs are less than ten shillings per foot shall not be registered as an exhibitors' quota film, and any such film shall be disregarded for the purposes of subsection (2) and (3) of section one of this Act. 4. Exemption and relief of certain theatres and itinerant exhibitors. (1) If the Board of Trade are satisfied, on application made to them by an exhibitor who exhibits films to the public at any theatre in Great Britain — (a) that films are so exhibited at not less than two other theatres in the same locality in competition with his theatre ; and (6) that owing to circumstances beyond the control of the applicant films registered as British films are exhibited at those theatres on dates earlier than the dates on which he is able to exhibit the same films in his theatre, the Board may, if they think fit, direct that in relation to the exhibition of films at the theatre to which the application relates the prescribed percentage for the purposes of subsection (2) or subsection (3) of section one of this Act shall be reduced, in the case of such quota period or periods as- may be specified in the direction, by such amount as may be so specified : Provided that the Board shall not give any such direction if it appears f o them that the theatre is controlled by a person who controls more than two hundred theatres in Great Britain. (2) Before giving a direction under the last foregoing subsection, the Board shall con- sult the Cinematograph Films Council and consider its advice in the matter. (3) If upon application made to them as mentioned in subsection (1) of this section not less than three months before the beginning of any quota period the Board are satisfied — (a) that the theatre to which the application relates fulfils the conditions specified in paragraphs (a) and (b) of that subsection ; and {b) that the average net box office receipts of the theatre during the year ending six months before the beginning of that quota period did not exceed one hundred pounds per week, the Board shall direct that the foregoing provisions of this Act shall not apply to the exhibition of films at that theatre during that quota period. (4) In relation to an exhibitor who, in any quota period, exhibits registered films to the public at theatres in Great Britain (not being theatres of the class described in subsection (3) of this section) but does not so exhibit such films at any one such theatre on more than six days during that period nor at more than one such theatre at the same time, the foregoing provisions of this Act shall have effect as if all the registered films exhibited by him to the public at such theatres in Great Britain in that period were so exhibited at one such theatre. (5) The reference in subsection (3) of this section to the net box office receipts of a theatre shall be construed as a reference to the receipts from the sale of seats at all performances at which registered films are shown to the public, after deduction of entertainments duty within the meaning of the Finance (New Duties) Act, 1916. (6 & 7 Geo. 5 • c. 11.) 5. Circuit theatres, etc. (1) Where application is made to the Board of Trade for a licence under section nine of the principal Act authorising a person to carry on business as an exhibitor at any theatre, and it appears to the Board that the theatre is controlled by a person who controls more than two hundred theatres in Great Britain, any licence issued in pursuance of the appli- cation shall be issued subject to the con- ditions specified in the next following subsection. (2) The conditions of any such licence as aforesaid shall be such as appear to the Board to be necessary for securing that the exhibitor will, if so required by the Board, exhibit at the theatre as first feature films, on such occasions as the Board may direct during the quota period in respect of which the licence is granted, not more than six films registered as British films and recommended by a Selection Cinematograph Films Act, 1948. 569 Committee to be appointed by the Board for the purpose as being suitable for such ex- hibition by reason of their entertainment value. (3) A direction given by the Board under any such condition as aforesaid shall be without prejudice to the requirements imposed on the exhibitor by section one of this Act, but any film exhibited in compliance with such a direction shall be taken into account fcr the purposes of subsection (2) of that section. (4) If any such condition as aforesaid is not complied with, the exhibitor shall be guilty of a quota offence unless the Board certify under the principal Act that the failure to comply therewith was due to circumstances beyond the control of the exhibitor and of any person other than the exhibitor having control of the theatre in question, or the exhibitor proves that fact to the satisfaction of the court. Notwithstanding anything in subsection (3) of the said section nine, if it appears to the Board that any theatre in respect of which application is made for such a licence as aforesaid is controlled by a person who controls more than two hundred theatres in Great Britain, the Board may refuse to issue a licence authorising the applicant to carry on business as an exhibitor at that theatre unless it is shown to their satisfaction — (a) that the theatre was controlled by that person on the first day of September, nine- teen hundred and forty-seven ; and (b) that any arrangements in force for securing that the films exhibited at that theatre are the same as those exhibited at other theatres controlled by that person were also in force on the said date. 6. Charging of rentals for registered films. (1) The rentals payable in respect of all regis- tered films delivered by a renter to an exhibitor for public exhibition at a theatre in Great Britain during the continuance in force of section one of this Act shall be charged separately in respect of each film : Provided that nothing in this subsection shall render unlawful an agreement between a renter and an exhibitor for the delivery as aforesaid of two or more films at an inclusive rental, if the proportion of the rental to be attributed to each film is defined on or before the delivery of those films. (2) If any film of which the rental is charged in contravention of this section is delivered to an exhibitor as aforesaid, the renter shall be guilty of an offence and liable on summary conviction to a fine not exceeding fifty pounds. 7. Application to non-standard films. (1) Subject to the provisions of this section, this Act and the principal Act shall not apply to films other than standard films, that is to say films of the width of thirty-five millimetres. (2) The Board of Trade may, after consulting the Cinematograph Films Council and con- sidering its advice in the matter, make regulations applying the provisions of this Act and the principal Act to films other than standard films, subject to such exceptions and modifications as may be specified in the regulations. (3) The power of the Board to make regulations under this section shall be exercised by statutory instrument ; and any such instru- ment shall be of no effect unless it is approved by resolution of each House of Parliament. 8. — Composition of Cinematograph Films Council. (1) The constitution of the Cinematograph Films Council shall be varied as follows, that is to say — (a) the number of members appointed as being independent persons shall be seven instead of eleven ; (b) the number of members appointed as representing exhibitors shall be five instead of four, of whom one shall be appointed as representing exhibitors in Scotland ; (c) the number of members appointed as representing makers of British films shall be four instead of two, of whom one shall be appointed as representing makers of films not intended for general exhibition as first feature film ; and (d) four members snail be appointed as representing persons employed by makers, - renters or exhibitors of British films instead of two members representing persons employed by makers of British films. (2) Any committee of the Council may include persons who are not members of the Council, and any such committee may co-opt as additional members of the committee such persons, whether members of the Council or not, as the committee may, with the approval of the Council, determine. 9. Amendments of principal Act and repeals. (1) Subject to the provisions of this section, the provisions of the principal Act specified in Part I of the First Schedule to this Act shall have effect subject to the amendments set out in relation thereto in the second column of that Schedule, being amendments for securing the continuance in force of those provisions, minor amendments, and amend- ments consequential on the provisions of this Act ; and the enactments specified in Part II of that Schedule are hereby repealed. (2) Notwithstanding anything in this section, the provisions of the pincipal Act relating to exhibitors' quotas (including any order made by the Board of Trade under paragraph (c) of subsection (2) of section fifteen of that Act altering the percentages prescribed for the purposes of those provisions by the First Schedule to that Act) shall continue in force until the end of the exhibitors' quota period ending on the thirtieth day of September, nineteen hundred and forty-eight ; and without prejudice to subsection (2) of section thirty-eight of the Interpretation Act, 1889 (52 & 53 Vict. c. 63.) (which relates to the effect of repeals) the principal Act shall have effect ir>. relation to anything done or omitted before the commencement of this Act, or before the end of the period aforesaid, as the case may be, as if this section had not been enacted. (3) In accordance with the provisions of sub- section (1) of this section, the principal Act shall have effect as set out in the Second Schedule to this Act, but without prejudice to the provisions of the last foregoing sub- section. 10.

(1) Any renter who, in any renters' licensing year, delivers for public exhibition at a theatre in Great Britain a film which is a registered film shall keep records of — (a) the title and registered length of the film, the fact that it is registered as a British film, as an exhibitors' quota film or as a foreign film, as the case may be, and such other particulars with respect to the film as may be prescribed for the purpose of identification, and {b) the theatres in Great Britain for public exhibition at which he delivers the film to exhibitors, and the respective dates on which, or periods for which, the film is to be, or has been, exhibited to the public at those theatres on delivery as aforesaid, and, in the case of a long film delivered as aforesaid for exhibition on or after the first day of October, nineteen hundred and forty-eight, the rental paid or payable in respect of the exhibition of the film at each of those theatres ; and shall, whenever requested so to do by a person authorised in that behalf by the Board of Trade, produce those records for inspection by that person.

Summary of Acts and By-laws Revised by NORMAN HART, B.A. The Acts of Parliament and local by-laws which relate to or affect the exhibition, storage or transit of kinemato- graph films are of paramount importance to the trade, and should be closely studied by all engaged in it. Below will be found a condensed digest of the principal regulations govern- ing this industry. This has been prepared by a leading solicitor, who has explained the most essential points in a manner which will be readily understood by readers. CINEMATOGRAPH ACT, 1909. All kinematograph exhibitions must be held at premises which are licensed (s. i). This Act was passed for making better provision for securing safety at kinematograph and other exhibitions. Under Clause r, provided premises comply with the regulations laid down by the Secretary of State, which are regulations dealing with the question of safety, nothing more is required. All premises must hold a licence where inflam- mable films are used. The Act contains no definition of the word " inflammable." Exceptions. — A licence is not necessary in the following cases : — (a) Where non-flammable films are used (as to whether a film is non-flammable or flammable is one of fact for the Justices to decide). (See Victoria Pier, Ltd. v. Reeves, 1912, 28 T.L.R. 443 ; also see re Dickman and Moore, Times Newspaper, December 17, 191 2.) (Note. — If an exhibitor holds a licence for premises upon which he originally used inflammable films and decides in future to use non-flammable films only, he is still bound by the conditions on the licence granted although otherwise no licence would be necessary.) (b) For exhibitions in private dwelling-houses where the general public are not admitted whether on payment or otherwise. (Note. — A hospital has been held not to be a private house under Section 7 of the Act, for which a licence is required — National Hospital for Paralysed and Epileptic Persons, Times, October 11, 1913.) (c) where premises are only used occasionally and not more than six days in any one year. But in this case the occupier must — i. Give seven days' notice in writing to the Licensing Authority and the chief officer of police of the police area ; ii. Comply with the regulations as to safety; iii. Comply with any conditions imposed in writing by the Licensing Authority. (d) On premises used for the purpose of exhibit- ing films to bona-fide purchasers — Att.-Gen. v. Vitagraph Co., 1915, C.H. 206. Movable Buildings or Structures, provided the owner (a) Has a licence in respect of the building or structure from the Licensing Authority for the district whetfe he ordinaf ily resides. (b) Has given two days' notice in writing to the Licensing Authority for the district where the exhibition is to take place, and to the chief officer of police of the police area. (c) Complies with any conditions imposed in writing by the Licensing Authority. Regulations as to Safety. These are made by the Home Secretary (Act s. 1) except in Scotland and Ireland, where the Secretaries for Scotland and Ireland respec- tively exercise this power (Act ss. 8 and 9). They are known as the Cinematograph Regu- lations, 1910 (Statutory Rules and Orders [1910] No. 189) and 1913 (St. R. & O. [1913] No. 566). Every owner and manager of a kinema must make himself familiar with these regulations, which are binding, even if the conditions of the licence happen to be in- consistent with them. Licensing Authority. (1) England. — The Council of the County or County Borough, but as a rule these powers are, in the first instance at least, exercised by a committee. Where the place is licensed by the Lord Chamberlain for stage plays, that official also grants kinematograph licences. The County or County Borough Council may delegate these powers to the local justices (Act s. 5). Licensing Justices sit as an administrative body, not as a Court of Sum- mary Jurisdiction — Huish v. Liverpool Justices, [1914] 1 K.B. 109. Therefore they have no power to state a case. Doubtful if any appeal of licensing authorities where a licence is refused without any reason. If reasons are stated and not been satisfactory or a proper hearing has not been given, proceedings by way of mandamus should be taken to the Court of Appeal. A further appeal in such a case can be taken to the House of Lords, or proceedings might be taken in the King's Bench Division for a declaration that proposed conditions which the Licensing Authorities have decided to put upon licences are ultra vires, and an injunction asked for to restrain the authorities from enforcing same. In cases before the Court of Summary Juris- diction where the procedure is by way of case stated to the Divisional Court no further appeal is allowed. (2) Scotland. — The Council of the County or the magistrates of a royal parliamentary or police burgh. There is no power of delegation (Act s. 8). Summary of Acts. 581 (3) Ireland. — The Council of the County or County Borough or Urban District or the Commissioners of the Town. There is no power of delegation, but a County Council may, in writing, authorise any officer of the Council to exercise any of the powers of the Act (Act s. 9). Grant, Renewal andJTransfer of Licences. Licences are normally for one year, but may be for shorter periods (Act s. 2 (2)). The Act makes no provision for granting provisional licences. For new grants or transfers seven days' notice in writing must be given to the Licensing Authority and to the chief officer of police of the police area, but no notice need be given in the case of a renewal (Act s. 2 (4)). Fees Payable. — One year's licence (grant or renewal), £1. Shorter periods, 5s. a month but not to exceed £1 for every year). Trans- fers, 5s. (Act s. 2 (5)). Licensees. — The Licensing Authority has a discretion (Act s. 2 (1) (3)). Where the refusal was based on the ground that several of the directors and the majority of the share- holders of the company in question were alien enemies, the refusal was upheld by the Court (Rex v. L.C.C. ex parte London and Provincial Electric Theatres, [1915] 2 K.B. 466). Conditions. — Under .Clause 2, Section 1, Licensing Authorities have much further powers than those given under Clause 1, as they can grant licences subject to such con- ditions as they may think fit in addition to the regulations of the Secretary of State as regards safety. The condition must be reasonable — L.C.C. v. Bermondsey Bioscope, 80 L.J.K. 1314. It has been argued on the words of the Act that these must be decided upon when the application for each licence is made, and not determined beforehand [e.g., most of the authorities issue a list of conditions which licensees must submit to), but this argument has not met with favour (see Rex v. Burnley Justices (1916), 32 T.L.R. at p. 696). Conditions or undertakings which have been upheld in the Courts include Against opening on Sundays and Holy Days, even where non-inflammable films used (L.C.C. v Bermondsey Bioscope Co. [1911], 1 K.B. 445 ; Ellis v North Metropolitan Theatres [1915] 2 K.B. 61). Against showing any film to which the Authority objects (ex parte Stott, [1916] 1 K.B. 7) ; As to hours of opening and closing (Rex v. Burnley Justices, supra). Against showing any licentious or indecent film (Rex v. Burnley Justices, supra). There is a distinction between conditions and undertakings and a condition as to the admission of children has been held bad (Halifax Theatre de Luxe v. Gledhill, [19 15] 2 K.B. 46), but an undertaking of not so widespread a character relating to the same matter has been upheld (Rex v. Burnley Justices, supra). Breach of a condition is an offence for which the licensee may be fined, and at once lose his licence ; breach of an undertaking may lead to refusal of renewal. A condition that no film can be shown if a specified number of justices object is void, as different groups may think differently (Rex v. Burnley Justices, supra). Where the Licensing Authority enforce a condition that no film to which the Authority objects may be shown, the owner of the film is apparently without any adequate remedy (ex parte Stott, [1916] 1 K.B. 7 ; Stott v. Gamble, [r9i6] 2 K.B. 504). A condition that no film be shown which has not been certified for public exhibition by the British Board of Film Censors is ultra vires, as it sets up in place of the Licensing Com- mittee another Body whose ipse dixit should be a test of what might be exhibited. (Ellis v. Dubouski, [1921] 3 K.B.D.) As to whether, therefore, the above conditions are intra vires is somewhat doubtful, and it might be argued that even if a film had not been censored and no notice given to the Local Licensing Authority, the only legal ground for proceeding against an exhibitor • for showing the picture would be that of indecency. The argument was upheld in a summons brought against an exhibitor in the Midlands, by the Licensing Authority, on the condition that if it was desired to show a film that had not been passed by the Censor, three clear days' notice must be sent to the Licensing Authority. Police Supervision. — Any police officer and any person authorised by the Licensing Authority may enter any premises (whether licensed or not) where he has reason to believe that a kinematograph exhibition is being or is about to be given. A police officer needs no authority, and while there may pay attention to any other breaches of the law that he may suspect (McVittie v. Turner, [1916] 85 L.J. K.B. 23). If anyone prevents or obstructs him, the offender is liable to be fined up to £20 (Act s. 4). A Constable without consent is not entitled to take away a piece of a film for the purpose of testing whether it is inflammable or non- flammable. SUPER SEATING by HARRISONS The Cinema Furnishing Specialists CLIFTON MILLS, COLBORNE, LANCS Telephone: GOLBORNE 326-7 582 The Kinematograph Year Book. Penalties. Besides the offence just mentioned, the owner of a kinematograph or other apparatus who uses it or allows it to be used in contravention of the Act or the Regulations or the conditions of the licence, and the occupier of premises who allows them to be used in contravention of the same, may be fined up to £20, and in the case of a continuing offence £5 a day, and the licence may be revoked on conviction (Act s. 3) . The manager of a kinema owned by a company is not an occupier, and cannot be summoned as such {Bruce v. McMaines, [1915] 3 K.B. 1). A kinematograph licence does not authorise musical accompaniments. A music licence is not necessary where music is subsidiary to the picture — See Hallinan, 73 J.P.N. 458. Theatre and Music and Dancing Licences may also be necessary. Theatre Licences for Stage Plays are obtained from the Lord Chamberlain in London, and from the justices elsewhere. Music and Dancing Licences are granted by the County and County Borough Councils, who can delegate this power to the local justices. Music and Dancing Licences in London are governed by the Music Hall Act, 1751. In Middlesex by the Music and Dancing Middlesex Act, 1894. In other areas beyond 20 miles from the Cities of London and Westminster under the Public Health Acts (Amendment Act), 1890, Sec. 4. Music Licences are renewable only once each year. They may contain conditions (in view of the section of the Public Health Act) different to the conditions of a kinematograph licence, as that act does not apply to Music and Dancing Licences. A Music and Dancing Licence does not authorise stage plays, nor does a Theatre Licence, under the Theatre Act, 1843, include Music and Dancing. Children. Where an entertainment is given for children (i.e., under fourteen), or the majority of persons present are children, and their number exceeds one hundred, and access to any part of the building is by stairs, then it is the duty of the occupier (if he is paid) and of the person giving the entertainment (in any case) to see that an adequate number of adult attendants are present to prevent overcrowding in any part, to control the movements of the audience when entering and leaving, and also to take all reasonable precautions for safety. Police officers have the right of entry. The penalty for a first offence is up to £50, for a second or subsequent offence up to £100, and any licence held in respect of the building may be revoked (Children Act, 1908, s. 121). The kinematograph licence is not mentioned, as it had not come into existence at that date. The Employment of Children Act, 1903 , s.i enables local authorities to make bye-laws relating to the employment of children (i.e., under fourteen), and many of them have exercised this power. A licensee should inquire at the council offices whether the local authority of his district has made any by-law affecting him (e.g., as to programme, sweet, or cigarette sellers, etc.). No child (under sixteen) employed half-time in a factory or workshop may be employed elsewhere (Act 1903, s. 3 (3)), nor may any child be employed before six a.m. or after nine p.m., unless the local by-laws allow it (Act 1903, s. 3 (1)). The fine is up to 40s. for a first offence, and £5 afterwards (Act 1903, s. 5 (1)). Under the Children and Young Persons Act, *933> where there is provided in any building an entertaiment for children or an entertain- ment at which the majority of the persons attending are children, then, if the number of children attending the entertainment exceeds one hundred the person providing the enter- tainment must station and keep stationed wherever necessary a sufficient number of adult attendants, properly instructed as to their duties, to prevent more children or other persons being admitted to the building and to control the movement of the children and other persons admitted while entering and leaving the building or any part thereof, and to take all other reasonable precautions for the safety of the children. Under Section 4 of this Act a constable may enter the building at any time with a view to seeing whether the provisions of the Act are being properly carried out. By the Royal assent having been given to the Shops Hours of Closing Act, 1928, patrons can buy tobacco, matches, table waters, sweets, chocolates or other sugar confectionery or ice-cream at any time during performances in any Theatre, Kinema, Music Hall or other similar place of entertainment so long as the sale is to bona-fide members of the audience and not on a part of the building to which other members of the public have access. This does away with the ban put upon Kinemas by D.O.R.A. some years ago. Admission. Admission can only be given by ticket stamped with a mark denoting that duty has been paid, or in special cases, if the Commissioners approve, through a barrier which automatically registers the numbers admitted. But the proprietor can make arrangements with the Commissioners dispensing with these condi- tions on the terms of furnishing certified returns at stated times and giving security for due payment of the duty. Penalty for breach ; Proprietor, £50 and duty ; Person admitted, £5. Special provision is made for lump sum payments in the case of clubs or societies, or in the case of season tickets or tickets for a series of entertainments. Duty is not payable where the Commissioners are satisfied : (a) That the proceeds are devoted to philan- thropic or charitable purposes without deduction of expenses ; or (b) That the entertainment is wholly educa- tional (in case of difference the Board of Education decides) ; or (c) That the entertainment is provided for partly educational or partly scientific purposes by a society, and not run for profit ; or (d) That it is provided by or on behalf of a school or educational institution if the school or institution is not run for profit, and the entertainment is provided solely for promoting some object of the school or institution, and that all the persons who are Summary of Acts. 583 ENTERTAINMENTS TAX SEAT-PRICE SCALE AS FROM MAY 16, 1943 Net.

AUSTRALIA T> ROBABLY the most significant event of the * year was the decision to keep the same relationship as before between the £ Australian and the £ sterling, but to devalue the / Australian in terms of dollars. The decision to devalue the £ came late in the year, but threw panic into the ranks of the American distributor representatives. Overnight, something like £Ai million had been written off. To offset devaluation and still remit to the U.S. enough dollars to make the gap caused by the Government's decision, drastic internal economies have been undertaken ; these include some sackings and a good deal of belt- tightening. The effects of devaluation are still being felt and must continue to be felt for some time. One company, the Grand Theatre Co., took the initiative in West Australia and applied for price increases granted some months later. The New Year saw a slight price increase in N.S.W. theatres (the machinery of price control had earlier been taken away from the Federal Govern- ment and given to the States, which accounts for some having increases and others not.) Uniform censorship was brought in for all States bar N.S.W. and S.A. N.S.W. is still holding out, but exhibitors are voluntarily sub- mitting to the requirements of the proposed legislation. In the first tax review of the year the film industry did not benefit from an entertainment tax cut. In August it was revealed that the largest amount ever collected in entertainment tax — £5,298,696 — had been gathered for the year ended June 30, 1949. The trade was pleased at a slight entertainment tax cut of id. on cheap seats and 6d. on the dearer seats. The tax cuts were so small they disappointed most people and went unnoticed by the public, for the most part. The Tariff Board cut import duties on 35mm, equipments and increased those on i6mm. equip- ments. The cuts were substantial and the in- creases slight, so that local manufacturers were indignant at the move. Chief beneficiary : the Gaumont-Kalee importers. The censors report showed that for 1948 many more British films had been imported than the year previously. Television was demonstrated publicly for the first time in Australia during the year. Later, the Prime Minister, J. B. Chifley promised a regular television service (Government-monopolised) in two years. The Australian Theatre in Melbourne went all- British for three months. The Sydney Tatler tried out a series of all-British programmes, but had to abandon it after a couple of weeks because the films were attracting few patrons. The Perth Grand, towards the end of the year, had better luck. Reconditioned, it started on an ambitious programme of British screenings and scored good business with the first programme, "The Red Shoes." The Tasmanian Government bought the Theatre Royal for use as Australia's first national theatre. Greater Union bought two more Sydney suburban theatres. Cinesound, which used to produce features and has been making only newsreels for some years, went into the tele\nsion-film field, making shorts for U.S. video. Ealing began its third Australian film during the year when " Bitter Springs " went into work at Quorn, S.A. Warners started to bring 16mm. prints into the country for the Repatriation Department's circuit of ex-servicemen's hos- pitals and institutions. At the annual meeting of the Queensland Exhibitors' Association, backshding members were urged to stick to the rule not to pay more than 40 per cent, hire for any film. The biggest disaster of the year came in June with the long coal strike and the ban on com- mercial use of power. Theatremen had to run on petrol or diesel driven stand-by plants, but the industry kept screening in most cases. The crippling blow caused by the large-scale unem- ployment had effects which lasted right up to Christmas. Principal Circuits : Hoyts Theatres (160 kinemas) in which 20th Century Fox's National Theatres Corporation has a controlling interest, is particularly strong (40) in Melbourne suburbs. Greater Union Theatres Pty., Ltd. (124) in which J. Arthur Rank has a 50 per cent, interest. Waterman Bros, and Associate Companies 25 kinemas mostly in South Australia. M-G-M.

Customs and other duties : Preference is shown in tariffs to British film imports ; but there is a duty of 8d. per foot on all U.S. imports. Duties on studio equipment from Great Britain are lighter than those from non-Empire lands. Quota Restrictions : Law fixes the distri- butors' quota of Australian films at 3 per cent. The minimum proportion of Australian quota films which an exhibitor shall screen is z\ per cent. Exhibitor' minimum quota of British films is 15 per cent. Production: "Eureka Stockade" (Ealing) and " Into the Straight " were released in 1949. It has been a disappointing year for local pro- duction. Much was anticipated in 1946 when three films were released, but the boom failed to materialise. — Frank O'Connell. AUSTRIA 'T'HE Bundesministerium fur Handel und *■ Wiederaufbau (State Ministry for Trade and Reconstruction). (Ministerialrat Dr. Steyskal), Abteilung 23a of Zaunergasse 3, Vienna III, is the Austrian Government depart- ment which deals with the film industry. The Bundesministerium fur Unterricht (State Ministry of Education), (Ministerialrat Prof. Dr. Haustein) of Minoritenplatz 5, Vienna 1, is inter- ested in films of educational value for use in Austrian schools through its own State Office for instructional films and slides. Number of kinemas is 890 : there are approxi- mately 193 in Vienna. The figures for the various zones occupied by the four Allies (excluding Vienna) are : Russian, 307 ; American, 177 ; British, 170 ; French, 43. Mobile kinemas : there are about 30 in the American, French and British occupied zones, some using 35mm. and others 16mm. It is known that the Russians are also using such mobiles in their zone for combined entertainment and propaganda purposes. There are no static sub- standard kinemas, and there is an acute shortage of 1 6mm. feature films. There are no circuits as understood in Great Britain. An association called " KIBA " (Kinobetriebs-Aktien Gesellschaft) controls 45 kinemas most of which are in Vienna. This organisation is controlled by the Socialist Party which is seeking to extend its influence by acquir- ing, or building, further theatres. In general, kinemas in Austria are in private hands, or leased by private individuals. There are only one or two kinemas with over 1,000 seats. The majority have 500 seats and below, and average seating capacity is 300-350. Admission prices : a maximum of schillings 5 (2s. 6d.) is charged to first run and larger houses ; and a minimum of 1 schilling (6d.) for smaller theatres in outlying districts. Groschen 50 (3d.) is added to the price of each ticket if a variety act appears. Entertainment and other taxes are included in the maximum and minimum prices quoted. In the provinces prices range from a maximum of schillings 4.50 (2s. 3d.) down to 1 schilling. Entrance prices, entertainment tax and turn- over tax are based on classification of kinemas into categories according to seating capacity, general standard of furnishing and equipment or the district and type of population living in the neighbourhood. Entertainment taxes : tax absorbs between 10 per cent to 25 per cent of the gross takings, and is graded according to the size and category of the kinema in the same way as admission prices. In the provinces small local taxes are sometimes imposed, and every kinema entrance ticket also includes a charge of 3 groschen (fraction of a farthing) for the Association of Authors, Composers and Musicians, as a royalty. The import and export of films is regulated under the Foreign Commerce Law of 1948 (State Law of November 24, 1948, No. 251) as well as the regulations of the Austrian Ministry for Trade and Reconstruction. Permits to import foreign films are issued by the State Ministry for Trade and Reconstruction. Under the Foreign Currency Law all contracts for import and export of films also require permission of the Austrian National Bank. Between January r, 1949 and September 30, 1949, the following feature films were imported into Austria by various foreign countries : — United States 102 through M.P.E.A., 13 through various Austrian distributors, Germany 28, Great Britain 24, France 17, Russia 15, Switzerland 3, Italy 3, Mexico 2, Poland 2, and Sweden 1 : total 210. In addition the United States, through M.P.E.A., imported 55 shorts. Censorship : in the American, British and French zones the Austrian authorities now have the right to censor films. Charge for censorship is approximately schillings 400 (£10) for a normal feature film. Under Austrian law kinemas are at present the concern of each province, which has its own regulations. Under these regulations films for showing to youth must have a special permit (Zulassung) issued by the competent local office. For Vienna the age limit is 16. In the provinces of Salzburg, Styria and Tyrol this limit is 17 years ; in Carinthia and Voralberg 18 years. Uniform legislation is now under consid- eration and will shortly come into effect and control of films for youth will be exercised by one central authority. Customs and other duties : the tariff for ex- posed and unexposed film is Austrian schillings 120 per 100 kilos nett (225 lb.) including tin con- tainers, plus 2 per cent of the value. The value is calculated from the invoice price, plus freight cost. Cost and freight by air is at present about Austrian Schillings 7.20 per kilo. Freight over- land is slower and less reliable, and the cost works out at much the same. Import permits are granted for films to enter the country for 14 days if for viewing by a pro- spective buyer or distributor. A deposit of 10 per cent of the value of the film is necessary. For import of negatives, or of films for syn- chronisation, the titles of the films, and the name and address of the Austrian concern who will handle the negatives or films, must be given to the relevant Austrian Departments. The Austrian Ministry of Finance, in conjunc- tion with the Customs authorities, issue permits for a period of six months. A security, based on 10 per cent of the value of the negatives or films must be deposited with the Austrian National Bank. In certain cases the period of six months may be extended. 604 The Kinematograph Year Book. Permits must be obtained before films arrive in the country. These can either be arranged by the import Austrian concern, or by the trans- porting agents who handle the negatives or films. The firm Frey & Co., International Transport Agents, of 43, Lindengasse, Vienna 7, special- ises in international film transport. Quota : there are at present no quota or other restrictions on foreign imported films but in view of the present low state of Austrian production the Government is considering a law for safe- guarding the industry. This foresees special taxes on foreign imported films with special consideration for those films of foreign companies which undertake joint production with Austrian concerns. Exchange regulations : before importing foreign films into Austria the contract made between the foreign firm and the Austrian buyer, or distributor, must be submitted to the Austrian authorities for examination and agreement. The contract must be approved by the Austrian Ministry of Trade and Reconstruction as well as the Austrian Society of Film producers. Approval by the Austrian National Bank does not con- stitute an import licence. The agreement of the Austrian Ministry of Finance (5, Johannesgasse, Vienna I) has also to be obtained. Receipts from showing of films can only remain in Austrian currency at present. The currency is legal throughout Austria including the Russian occupied zone. Payments in foreign currency are strictly controlled by the Austrian Ministry of Finance. Legislation : to stabilise the Austrian film industry and to eliminate small concerns with no capital facilities it is necessary to prove a certain number of years actual experience in the production and distribution of, films before a licence is granted. New legislation is under con- sideration for fostering local production and encouraging joint production with foreign companies. Studios : the largest " Wien Film am Rosen- hiigel " are in the Russian sector of Vienna, and under Russian control, but can be rented. There are three stages : Hall (1), 40 by 20 metres, (2) 35 by 18 metres, (3) 12 by 14 metres. The " Neue Wien Film " studios in the Sievering district of Vienna, in the American sector has two stages : Hall (1) 20 by 30 metres, (2) 16 by 24 metres. These studios were built in 1916. " Neue Wien Film " also has a small studio,"one stage 11 by 18 metres, at Schonbrunn in the British occupied sector of Vienna, and a former brewery at 32, Cobenzlgasse, Vienna 19, has been converted. It has one stage 17 by 15 metres and sound stage 11 by 7 metres. The Salzburg Festival House at Salzburg is used as a film studio for the months of the year when not in use for the annual festival. It is controlled by the Osterreichische Film Gesell- schaft m.b.H. of 32, Schwarzstrasse, Salzburg, which also controls the film studio at Thiersee, Tirol. A former Passion Play theatre at Thiersee, a village in the Tirol, French zone, is now used as a film studio. Space is somewhat restricted. There is one stage only. Graz, the capital of Styria has a studio in a former aeroplane hangar, with workshops, dressing rooms, extensive lamp park, including some modern Mole Richardson H.I. lamps, and a large number of new German lamps of various sizes. This hangar is 80 metres long by 40 wide, with a height of 8 metres. Space permits of all interior sets in an average film being built at one time, and this is the usual method employed. At Imst, Tirol, the Optophon company is building a stage 24 by 14 metres with a height of 12 metres. It will be equipped with German and American equipment. Twenty feature films were produced in Austria in 1947, compared with two in 1946. A total of approximately 55 feature films and 14 documen- tary films have been produced since the end of the war. Documentary producers do not receive the support of any Government department or large concerns, and their existence is at present precarious through lack of capital. Repeated attempts on the part of documentary film pro- ducers to obtain Government backing have been unsuccessful, the Government maintaining that it has no funds available. To protect their interests, Austrian documentary producers have formed a Society for Austrian documentary films with a central office at 5, Bucklreuthstrasse, Salzburg, Austria.

The Ministry of Justice deals with censorship, the Ministry for Economic Affairs with admission prices, and the Labour Ministry is responsible for safety regulations. Kinemas : There are 1,402 kinemas in Belgium, of which only 1,303 are at present in use. Of these Brussels has 119, Antwerp 73, Liege 158 and Ghent 28. There are approximately 700 sub- standard kinemas. Admission prices : From 6 to 30 francs ; first run houses from 12 to 30 francs. Annual ad- missions, 113,680,000.

The total admittance to all theatres is estimated at approximately 32,000. Fifteen theatres are at La Paz, the Capital. The entire market is virtually controlled by two circuits — Lindo and Jose Santiz. Admission prices : For each Film these are fixed by the municipal censors ; they range from 2 to 30 bolivianos. Taxation : Based on the price of admission includes 16 per cent, national Government tax, 5 per cent, municipal tax ; certain percentages tor the universities, etc. It averages 22^ per cent, in the Capital, La Paz and district, but varies in other districts, up to 40 per cent. Distribution and Imports : The annual requirements are estimated at 436 feature films. Only one print is used for distribution per film. It is estimated that U.S. films account for 68 per cent., Mexican 17 per cent., Argentine for 13 per cent., all other countries for 2 per cent, of the screen time. There are no import restrictions, except a monthly allotment of exchange. A quota of §18,000 per month was fixed in August, 1947. Duty : A basic duty of 5 per cent, ad valorem and a surtax of 400 per cent, of the basic duty is applied to all film imports from any country. Censorship : This is handled locally by " In- spectores de Espectaculos." Sub-standard : No censorship is imposed on sub-standard films. Distribution and exhi- bition of sub-standard films is free from any restriction. They are mainly distributed through one agency the Fomento Cultural Cinematografico. Educational films are distri- buted by the Servicio Cooperative de Salud Publico and the United States Information Service. The Ministry of Education is proposing to establish a film library. — H. H» Wollenberg. BRAZIL THE National Film Council of Brazil, formed in 1942, governs the operation of the film industry. Kinemas : There are 1,678 theatres, or one theatre for 29,126 inhabitants. Seating capacity approximately 1,104,039. Estimated weekly attendances, 3-4 million. The most important kinema circuits are Severiano Ribeiro, with 74 houses ; Vital Ramos de Castro, 15 ; Serrador, 41 ; Freixa, 5 ; and Andrade, 13. The average admission price is estimated at about 2 cruzeiros (approx. 8d.), but as little as 0.5 cruzeiros is charged in some interior districts. The highest is 6.6 cruzeiros. There is an admission tax of 10 per cent, on all seats. In 1947, 465 films were exhibited. Feature films imported : U.S. 427, France 11 Argentina 21, Portugal 5, Mexico n, Remainder including Britain 22. Censorship : All films, including trailers, must be censored before being shown anywhere in Brazil. Censorship is carried out by the Divisao de Teatros e Cinemas (Division of Theatres and Kinemas), a sub-division of the Government Department known as D.I. P. (Departamento de Imprenso e Propaganda), which has its offices in Rio de Janeiro. There are no representatives of the Trade on this Board. In 1947, 702 feature films were submitted to censorship, including U.S., 535 ; France, 56 ; Italy, 24 ; Mexico, 23 ; Argentine, 19 ; Brazil, 11 ; Russia, 8 ; Great Britain, 7 ; Germany, 6 ; Portugal, 6 ; and Austria, 5. Old films must be destroyed five years after the date of censorship, and although prints which have been in service for five years cannot be recensored or exhibited, new copies of the same film can again be submitted for censorship and exhibited if passed. According to a decree published in' March, 1944, film companies are subject to a 10 per cent, income tax on 30 per cent, of remittances paid abroad. This is in addition to an exchange tax and other miscellaneous taxes which distributors must pay. Quota : Three home-produced features per year have to be shown by each kinema and 50 per cent, of the box office receipts must be paid as rent. In addition, every programme must include home-produced news reels and shorts. There are 6 major studios in Brazil. Feature film production is largely sustained by the Government, not so much by subsidy as by regulations and controls. In 1948, 14 feature films were produced. There is considerable activity with regard to production of shorts, newsreels and propaganda films. The Censorship Board is authorised by law to award among the producers prizes of at least 200,000 cruzeiros per annum from the censorship fees. — H.H. Wollenberg.

BULGARIA HPHE State film monopoly since early 1948, is operated by Bulgarska Kinematograna at Ulica Rakowski 96, Sofia, which is under the direction of the Committee for Science, Art and Culture. It controls all him production as well as importation, export and distribution of films and equipment. There are about 300 kinemas, but the current Two-Year Plan provides for the building of an additional 200. Two-thirds of the 300 theatres are owned by cultural organisations. Legis- lation (April 5, 1947) imposed the following taxes on gross receipts of these kinemas : the 30 theatres in Sofia, 34 per cent ; those in the nine principal provincial towns, 28 per cent. ; the remaining kinemas 10 per cent. Theatres owned by individual exhibitors pay the same taxes except in Sofia, where they pay an additional 13.2 per cent, municipal tax on their net receipts and various other taxes. Films made in Bulgaria with Bulgarian casts are exempt from taxation. Production is still in its infancy. A studio is planned near Sofia, to be completed in 195 1. Bulgarian, Czech, Hungarian, Rumanian and Polish State monopolies have signed exchange agreements. — H. H. Wollenberg. CANADA THE outstanding domestic trade development of the year in Canada was the creation of the Motion Picture Industry Council of Canada, with J. J. Fitzgibbons, C.B.E., of Toronto, as chairman, the purpose being to weld all branches of film activity into one group which would have one voice in dealing with matters of taxation, legislation, inter-mdustry and public relations and box-office promotion. The year saw an increase of 224 theatres to a total of 1,917 for the whole country, but it was noted that the rush of post-war construction had tapered to a minimum. Odeon Theatres (Canada), opened its last new Kinema in Eastern Canada, at Stratford (Ont.), in November, while 20th Century Theatres, a subsidiary of Famous Players Canadian Corp., appeared to have completed its major programme with the opening of the Birchcliff in suburban Toronto about the same time. The Dominion Government reported all-time high net receipts of all kinemas at $69,619,047 an increase of §7,240,474 over the previous year. The public paid an additional §13,622,459 in amusement taxes for a grand total of §83,241,506 for film entertainment in the latest i2-months' period. There was practically no change in prices. The hope of leading kinema operators for the introduction of television in the Dominion's theatres to bolster interest remained unfulfilled at the end of 1949 because of tardy action on the part of the Federal Government in the granting of TV licences. The film industry escaped increased restric- tions on imports from the United States of films and theatre equipment, but devaluation of the Canadian dollar had the effect of increasing costs by approximately 10 per cent. On the other hand, films and equipment cost less from the United Kingdom. Noteworthy was the increase in bookings of British features by Famous Players Canadian Corp. on account of improved product and an announced desire to help Britain's : national financial problem.

CHILE 'T'HE Direccion General de Informacion y Cultura (General Bureau of Information and Culture), is the Government Department dealing with the film industry. The Camara de Comercio Cinematografico (Film Trade Chamber) represents the trade interests. Kinemas : There are 320 theatres with a total seating capacity of 280,000. Average weekly attendance is estimated at 1,500,000. Ad- missions range from 10 to 25 pesos. The yearly gross income is estimated at 300 million pesos. An entertainment tax of n per cent, and a sales tax of 10 per cent, are collected on every ad- mission. An additional tax is collected by the Direccion General de Informaciones (General Office of Information). Educational and docu- mentary films are exempted from both Customs duties and E.T. The largest of the circuits are the Organizacion Teatral Cinematografica Martinez y Cia. (60 houses), Cines Unidos (5), Cia. Nacional de Teatros (16), Organizacion Teatral Chilena (7), Cia. Chilena de Espectaculos (6), Pairoa (5), and Empresa Rojas Barbieri (3). Censorship : The Board of Film Censors, a department of the General Bureau of Informa- tion and Culture, is responsible for censorship. A decree published in July, 1946, authorises the Director General of Information and Culture to permit representatives of moral or religious organisations to be present during the censor- ship of films. Once a film has been passed by the Board, it cannot be banned or suspended by any local authorities. Censored films fall into three categories : (1) for adults and children ; (2) for adults only ; (3) for adults but not for unmarried women. An import permit and exchange authorisa- tion covering the year's quota must be obtained from the National Foreign Trade Council of Chile. Applications to import films must contain the following data : Name of film ; number of prints to be imported ; length of the film and values of the first and second copies ; vaiue of royalties or percentage of proceeds ; break- down of "other expenses," such as advertising insurance, freight, etc. In 1948, 278 new feature films, 12 serials, and 40 reissues were released. Of the features, 177 were American, 33 Mexican, 25 French, 21 Argentine, 10 British, 6 Italian, 3 German, 2 Spanish and 1 Swedish. Production : The only modern studios in the country are those of Chile Films, controlled by the Government ; 27 features were produced during the last 5 years.— -H. H. Wollenberg.

The total seating capacity is estimated at 250,000. Roughly 60 per cent, of the theatres is controlled by the Colombia S.A. circuit. One or two prints per film are required for nationwide distribution ; these have to be imported. Imports : No quotas exist, but by existing exchange control regulations only 65 per cent, of gross income from film rentals may be remitted. A previously issued import licence is required for all shipments, including films, valued at 50 pesos or more ; this, however, does not limit the number of imported films. Import duty on films is 1 peso per gross kilo- gram. Censorship : There is no national censorship. This is undertaken by boards in various muni- cipalities. The Bogota censorship board usually sets the example for the entire country. Taxation : A national tax ranges from 5 per cent, to 10 per cent., apart from which there are certain municipal taxes. It is estimated that about 22 per cent, is taken from the admissions by taxes. Production : In recent years this has been confined to newsreels, shorts and advertising films. Five production firms are registered. — H. H. WOLLENBERG. DENMARK MINISTRY of Justice, Christiansborg, Copen- hagen, controls the film industry. Number of kinemas : (35mm.) 430. There are 28 mobile kinemas. There are no commercial 16mm. kinemas. All circuits are forbidden by law. Admission tax : 65 per cent, on basic admission price. Admission prices range from Danish kr. 1.25 (about is. 6d.) to Danish kr. 3.00 (approx. 4s.). Censorship regulations : approval of all films must be obtained from the State's Censorship Board, appointed by the Ministry of Justice. There are three classifications : White seal (banned), red seal (general audience), yellow seal (adults only). All posters and stills used for advertising purposes visible from a public thoroughfare must also be appoved. Customs and other duties : a customs duty of 10 per cent is paid on purchasing price. There is also a fee for censorship. Since October 1, 1947 all foreign films have been imported on a fiat rate basis but from January 1, 1950, films may be imported on a percentage basis as was the case before October 1947. Number of studios operating : four. Documentary and educational production are mainly in the hands of the government film committee and Dansk Kultur Film and private bodies. — Borge Slot. EIRE NO specific department deals with the Industry. The Revenue Commission deals with import duties and entertainments tax. Department of Justice is responsible for censor- ship. Department of Local Government deals with licences, and the Department of Industry and Commerce deals with building and erection licences. Number of kinemas : 35mm., 326 (mobile, 5) ; 1 6mm., 80 (mobile, 10). Principal circuits are : Odeon (Ireland), Ltd. (15); Capitol and Allied (7) ; McNally Cinemas (9). Among exhibitors who have interests in a number of kinemas which are registered as separate companies are : Maurice Baum (five), and Cinema and General Publicity, owned by J. Rackow and G. Kirkham (four) ; James J. Kavanagh, of Arklow, has interests in and books for the Ormond Circuit (10), Marten S. Breen, of Waterford (eight), John Egan, of Maryborough (eight), D. McGrath, of Dublin (four). Admission prices : These range from 6d. in country kinemas to 3s. 6d. in Dublin first-run theatres. Entertainment taxes range from i^d. on a 4d. admission to 3s. on a 4s. ticket. Censorship : All films publicly shown must exhibit the Censor's certificate, and the Censor has the right to censor all exploitation material publicly displayed. By law the Censor has the right to grade pictures and to issue limited certificates, but in practice all films are passed for family exhibition standards. Duty on important negatives is 5d. (full) and 3id. (preferential). On positives, 3d. and 2d. respectively. Full duty is paid on all imported film. Educational film and prints processed abroad by an Eire company are duty free. U.K. and Commonwealth films pay the pre- ferential duty. All films are imported through London and paid for in sterling. There are no studios operating. Hibernia Pictures undertake silent newsreel duties for foreign producers. Their interest shorts are processed and recorded in British studios. First National Irish Film Corporation, who at present produce a regular newsreel magazine featuring exclusively Irish items, hope in the coming year to establish a small studio and laboratory. Georg Fleischman, local cameraman acting as a free-lance, covers news items of international interest for Paramount and Fox newsreels. — T. J. M. Sheehy. EAST AFRICA T^HERE are approximately 50 35-mm. com- A mercial kinemas in Kenya, Uganda and Tanganyika. There are a number of 16-mm. mobile circuits run by Government depart- ments and a few operated in remote areas by private concerns. Admission prices : range from 50 cents (6d.) to 4s. 50 cents (4s. 6d.). Entertainment tax : up to 74 cents, nil ; 74 cents to is., 15 cents ; over is. but under 3s., 25 cents ; 3s. to 4s. 50 cents, 50 cents ; over 4s. go cents, is. Customs duty : 8s. per 1,000 ft.

Production : Studio and laboratory facilities are maintained in Nairobi by East African Sound Studios, Ltd., which is capable of completing all phases of 35-mm. and 16-mm. production, with the exception of Kodachrome processing. Kodak (F.A.), also maintains facilities for pro- cessing black and white 16-mm. films. Censorship : All films entering the country or produced locally are liable to censorship by a locally appointed board, and may be passed either for general exhibition, which means that they can be shown in Native Reserves, etc., or for exhibition only in municipalities and town- ships in duly licensed theatres. This Board has also the power of veto. A further censorship is imposed by the Kenya Government under an outmoded ordinance dated August 15, 1939, which demands that full shooting and dialogue scripts shall be submitted for prior approval before a foot of film is shot. It further reserves the right for a police officer to be attached to any film production unit during the shooting. The ordinance, although far reaching in its powers, is seldom exercised. EGYPT THE Ministry of Social Affairs is the main authority responsible in film matters. The Film Censorship Board is composed of 22 repre- sentatives of the Ministries of Social Affairs and of the Interior. There are no quota or other import restric- tions. Since 1945, all exhibitors showing foreign films exclusively, have been requested to show Arabic films for a period ranging from one to four weeks each year. This agreement, however, has not been enforced as there have not been sufficient Arabic films. Only three imported films per annum may be dubbed in Arabic ; the}' are to be selected by the Ministry of Social Affairs. Superimposition of Arabic titles is required by law. Customs charges : E/5 per kilogram net, plus quay dues 10 per cent of the duty, and 7 per cent ad valorem. — Censorship charge is 4 per cent. Kinemas : the total number is 225 with a total seating capacity of 200,000, including 68,000 seats in open-air theatres. The most important kinema is the Rivoli, seating 2,200 and opened in 1948 in conjunction with the Rank group. Average weekly attendances are 500,000 in Cairo, 250,000 in Alexandria. Entertainment tax : based on a sliding scale, varies from 10 per cent for 2-piastre admissions to 33^ per cent for 30-piastre admissions. Production : there are 12 major producers active, whereas 58 were listed in 1946. Corres- pondingly, 60 feature films were made in 1946 but only 35 approximately in 1947. There are eight studios in operation, all located in Cairo, with a total of 15 stages. The largest is Studio Misr. Documentary and instructional shorts are pro- duced for, or subsidised by the Ministry of Social Affairs. A newsreel dealing with North African and Middle Eastern events is released monthly. Distribution : 350 to 400 feature films per annum are required to supply the market. Latest statistics available are for 1947 when feature releases in Cairo totaled 377, including 220 American, 69 French, 52 Egyptian, 26 Italian 4 British, 3 Greek, 2 German, 1 Turkish : , Four more British films were released in Alexandria. There are 17-20 distributors of Arabic films. H. H. YVOLLENBERG. FINLAND TPHE number of kinemas in Finland is 470 — — an increase of approximately 10 during the year. Taxes : All cultural or educational films are tax-free and others are subject to 35 per cent., 40 per cent., or 45 per cent, taxes, according to whether they are classed as B, C or D films by the State Film Censors. Corresponding taxes for Finnish films are 25 per cent., 30 per cent, and 35 per cent. The Customs Duty on each kilogram is Fmks. 34. In Helsinki 325 films were shown between January 1 and December 1, 1949, including : U.S.A., 209 ; British, 24 ; Russian, 28 ; Finnish, 14 ; Swedish, 19 ; French, 18 and German, 7. FRANCE E central authority dealing with all film matters is the " Centre National de la Cinematographic Francaise ", comprising five divisions : 1. Production and Technical Services ; 2. Foreign Service ; 3. Distribution and Exploit- ation; 4. General Administration; 5. Social Problems. The Director-General of this organisation, which has all the characteristics of a Ministry, is M. Michel Fourre-Cormeray, who is responsible directly to the " Ministere' de lTndustrie et du Commerce (Ministry for Industry and Commerce). The Director-General has the right to sit ^or to be represented) on the Censorship Committee, which is presided over by a high-ranking Civil Servant and includes delegates from seven of the National Ministries and seven representatives of various branches of the film industry, exhibitors and critics. In his statement of policy M. Fourre- Cormeray has announced the adoption of the principle that the censorship commission can impose a ban only if it is voted unanimously by secret ballot and confirmed by a ballot taking place a fortnight later. No essential changes occurred during the past year in the set-up of the various unions and syndicates representing respectively film tech- nicians, producers, exhibitors and renters. Taxes: the " Taxe sur les Spectacles" (Entertainment Duty) ranges at present from 2% to 26% of the weekly takings according to the amount and the grading of the locality con- cerned (the lowest limit of the weekly takings being 35,000 frs., and the highest 150,000 frs.). " Taxes surle chiffre d'affaires " (taxes on the turnover) ; 7% on the negative production (paid by the producer, and actually consisting of 4-5% production tax, 1.5% local tax and 1% transaction tax), 12.5% on the value of the positive copy (paid by the producer and actually replacing the 12.5% paid previously on the value of the raw film by the supplier), 4.5% on the eventual price of exhibition rights (paid by the producer), 4.5% on the renting price (paid by the renter), 4.5% so-called " Taxe a la production " (paid by the exhibitor in addition to the above- mentioned Entertainment Duty). Newsreels are exempt from taxes on produc- tion, bookings or outright sales. Stamp Duty : 0.50 frs. on sums up to 50 frs. and by progressing scale up to 10 frs. on sums between 10,000 and 50,000 frs. A new tax has been introduced by the Act of September 23, 1948, on "Temporary Help to the Cinema ". In virtue of this law a supplement Overseas. 609 of 5 frs. is charged on every ticket costing 35 to 99 frs., and a supplement of 10 frs. on all tickets exceeding 100 frs. This supplement is thus paid by the public. Apart from this the law provides the payment of a " Taxe de Sortie de Films ", which amounts to 400 frs. per meter of film for every French-speaking picture (original French version or dubbed), 25 frs. per meter of a foreign language film in its original version, and 50 frs. per meter of short films (under 1.300m.) French or foreign. From these sources an " Assistance Fund " of 1,500 million frs. was to be created, into which the Treasury was authorised to pay immediately as a loan the sum of 400 million francs. This fund is to be used for financing new productions (up to 50% of the estimated cost) and for loans to exhibitors, whose kinemas need rebuilding or modernising as a result of the war. From October, 1948, to October, 1949, the total takings of the "Assistance Fund " amounted to 1,951 million francs, thus exceeding the original estimate considerably. In fact, the supplemen- tary tax on kinema seats has brought in the sum of 1,670 million francs and the " Taxe de Sortie " — 281 rnillion. 1,075 million francs of this fund were distributed in the following way : produc- tion— 800 million, loans to exhibitors — 250 million, propaganda for French films abroad — 25 million. (The administrative expenses did not exceed 1.5 million frs.) These last-mentioned 25 million frs. have been assigned as a first instalment to a newly created, State-sponsored organisation called " UNI- FRANCE FILM". It has come into being through a legislative Act on August 22, 1949, and its main object is to promote the sale and pub- licity of French pictures abroad. At its head is Robert Cravenne, formerly Chief of the Foreign Section of the " Centre National". Admission prices : despite a considerable rise in the cost of living and the devaluation of the franc, admission prices have been, throughout the year, kept on the level fixed by the Decree of November, 1947, i.e., ranging from 20 frs. (approx. 5d.) to 150 frs. (approx. 3s.). As prices are fixed in accordance with the officially recognized category to which a kinema belongs, a number of exhibitors, in order to overcome their difficulties, applied for a transfer into a higher category (in which, however, taxes are higher, too). An addition to the above-mentioned decree provided the possibility of establishing kinemas with one standard price for all seats. For special occasions, like exclusive or first showings in luxury kinemas, increases of admission prices are authorised. Abolition of price control is foreseen for 1950. Quota regulations : there are, in principle, no restrictions on import of foreign films, apart from the obligation to obtain an import licence and a visa of censorship. In accordance, however, with the French-American agreement of September 16, 1948, the number of foreign feature films shown in France with a French language sound- track (35mm- over 3,900 feet) is limited to 186 per annum, of which 121 are American. On this agreement is also based the Quota Regulation, according to which 5 weeks (instead of formerly four) in every 13 must be devoted to home-produced films (Decree of November 3, 1948). An additional clause in the agreement provides that dubbed foreign films can be shown simultaneously only in 5 kinemas of the Depart- ment Seine and in 10 kinemas of the other Departments. Customs Duty : this amounts to 20% ad valorem on raw stock. The rates per metre for processed films are as follows: negatives (35mm.), black-and-white newsreels, 3 frs., others zu rrs. ; negatives (35mm), in colour, newsreels 5 frs., others 25 frs. ; positives (35mm.), black-and- white, newsreels, 1 fr., others 4 frs. ; positives (35mm.), in colour, newsreels, 2 frs., others 5 frs. In addition there is 1% stamp duty and up to 16% Transaction Tax (varying according to the category of film in question). Sound-track only — the same rates as for black- and-white positives. Currency : transfer of money from France to other countries is only permitted with the authorisation of the " Office des Changes ". By virtue of the above-mentioned Franco- American agreement, U.S. film companies are authorised to take out of France yearly a sum not exceeding 3,625,000 dollars for four consecutive years. There are also provisions now enabling foreign film companies to use their frozen assets for producing films in France. At the British Embassy in Paris film matters are dealt with by the Public Relations Officer, Mr. P. F. D. Tennant, in whose department Miss T. Williamson is in charge of the Film Section. The French film interests are represented in London by the Commercial Counsellor to the French Embassy (Mr. Alexandre Apostol is in charge of the Film Section) at 22, Hans Place, London, S.W.i. (Telephone: KENsington 3481). Two distribution agencies for French films have been set up in London in 1949 : Blue Ribbon Films, 50 Bryanston Street, London, W.i. Telephone : AMBassador 6464. Films de France, 6 Rupert Street, London, W.i. Telephone : GERrard 6594. Production : costs are about 20 times higher than in 1939. Whilst the State retains in taxes, etc., 27% of the takings, the producer's share amounts approximately to 18%. As a rule the takings are divided as follows : taxes 27% ; exhibitors 42% ; renters 8.5% ; - author's rights, etc., 4.5% ; production 18%. Some improvement in this state of affairs is expected through the above-mentioned " Act on Temporary Aid for the Kinema". Within the French reconstruction plan, called " Plan Monnet ", the film industry has been given one of the top-ranking places. The " Commission de Modernisation du Cinema " has been formed to step up both the construction of new studios and the output of raw film with the object of pro- ducing 150 films per year in 1950. Until the end of 1949 about 100 productions have benefited by the financial aid of this fund. As for the reconstruction of war-damaged kinemas and the reconstruction of new picture- houses, the " Centre National de la Cinemato- graphic " is responsible for the examination of requirements and transmission to other Govern- ment Departments. The powers of this central authority are very extensive ; the whole distri- bution of ferrous metals for building of kinemas, for instance, is in its hands. As a result, 393 war- damaged standard size (35mm.) kinemas and 59 sub-standard (16mm.) kinemas have been re- paired or rebuilt in 1948. 1,500 applications con- cerning modernisation or reconstruction of kinemas have been received and will be dealt with within the current budget year. The French film industry, having at present 15 studios with the total number of 45 stages operating, is capable of producing on the average 80 feature films per year. The studio space is being increased by the construction of three additional stages at the Franstudios in Marseilles. The official estimate of feature films produced in France during the year 1949 is given as 90 (as compared with 95 in 1948, 91 in 1946 and 113 in U 610 The Kinematograph Year Book. 1938). The approximate figure for documentary and educational films produced in 1949 is 200. Kinemas : 35mm., 5,676 belonging to 5.499 exhibitors. Total seating capacity : 2,500,000. Average seating capacity : 500. Approximate number of spectators per annum : 370,000,000. 16mm., static, 1,235 : sub-standard mobile, 3,556. The latter are not subject to any restrictions, apart from the obligation to obtain a licence from the " Centre National de la Cin^matographie Frangaise ". Export and Import : in 1948 a total of 392 feature films were shown in Paris. These included 89 French, 222 American, 1 German and 80 others. The figures for the first 6 months of 1949 were : Total, 198 ; 50 French, 95 American, 53 others. — Francis Koval. FRENCH STUDIOS.

GERMANY CONDITIONS in the three Western zones of Germany have greatly changed during the sixteen months since the currency reform of the summer, 1948, and the gradual stabilisation of the West-German Federal Republic, with its Government in Bonn. Last summer a central Board of Filmcensors (so-called Self-Control) was established to which film censorship has been handed over by the occupation powers. Although regional ex- hibitors', renters' and producers' associations are carrying on in the three Western zones, as well as in the three Western sectors of Berlin, the " ADF " has been formed as a joint committee representing the industry as a whole. Towards the end of 1949 legislation in respect of films, including importation, was also handed back to the new German administration : it is, however, expected that any form of quota restrictions would not find endorsement by the Allied High Commissioners. Some other form of market regulation may be worked out in i95o. Kinemas : The number of kinemas has steadily been increasing. It is now approxi- Overseas. 611 mately 5,000 (3,500 in the three Western zones). Of these 250 (100 in the East) are in Berlin. Admission : Fees (at the rate of DM. 12.50 per £) now range between gd. for the cheapest seat in a small-time kinema to about 10s. for the most expensive seat in a de-luxe house. Average budget of German exhibitor is 40-45 per cent, for film rental, 13-17 per cent, for entertainment tax, 5 per cent, for trade and other taxes, 10-12 per cent, forrent, rates and/or amortisation, 3 per cent, for insurance, 2 per cent, for publicity, 12-15 per cent, for general expenses. Business last year was bad, partly due to good summer weather but mostly due to scarcity of money after currency reform. Distribution-: The total renters' remit- tances for the 16 months ended October 31, 1949, are authoritatively estimated at 160 million D.Marks, with a net share for pro- ducers of 100 million, including approximately 74 million for imported productions. The British share in West German screen-time and remittances can be assessed from an inquiry made with the 15 kinemas of a representative Rhineland city, for the twelve months from October r, 1948, to September 30, 1949. British feature films presented October- December, 1948, 23 per cent. ; January /March, 1949, 18.5 per cent. ; April /June, 1949, 14.5 per cent. ; July /September, 1949, 18 per cent : The total supply in 1949 amounted to 186 foreign and 56 German feature films. A very large proportion of German film fare is provided by the respective occupation power, the Russians exclusively in the East. In the West distribution is by Eagle-Lion and omnium (Associated British), the Ameri- can MPEA and the French IFA (International Film Alliance) respectively. Britain is now additionally represented by Deutsche London Film Verleih — Korda's own new Germany agency — which, in the short time of its existence, has scored heavily with "Thief of Bagdad," "Elephant Boy," "Henry VIII," and other old pictures and beaten all records with "The Third Man." Almost all British and most other foreign pictures shown in the West are dubbed, though in some cases sub-titles are still being used. Taxation-: Entertainment taxes are levied by the local government authorities and are extremely heavy. The rates vary from 12 to 30 per cent, of the- gross takings, with an average of 18 per cent. The total gross takings of an average box-office success are estimated at DM. 3,000,000. Production- : In the Soviet Zone (now called the Deutsche Demokratische Republik) pro- duction is still monopolised by DEFA (Deutsche Film AG, with headquarters at Krausenstr., Berlin), which controls 80 per cent, of the best surviving studio space and equipment of the former Ufa studios at Babelsberg and others at Johannisthal. In the Western Zones (now the Bundesstaat) producers had to obtain a licence from the respective occupation authority. An average first leature costs some 800,000 D.Marks. Approximately 40,000 goes on the story, 20,000 for director's fee, 200,000 for artists' salaries, 300,000 on studio rent and sets, 60,000 on stock and printing, 40,000 on exteriors. There has been a tendency to build far too many new studios, technically ill-equipped or at small places such as Gottingen, where even small-part players had to be imported from Berlin, Hamburg or Munich, GREECE HTHE Under-Secretariat of State for Press and Information is the authority concerned with film affairs. With it, is the Film Censorship Board, composed of three representatives of the Under-secretariat, one of the Ministry of Edu- cation, two of the Ministry of Public Order (Police), and the District Attorney. Children under 16, even if accompanied by an adult, are not admitted to films classified as unsuitable for juniors. There are 327 kinemas throughout Greece. Of these 163 (61 enclosed and 102 open-air) are in Greater Athens ; 45 are in Macedonia and Thrace (of which 16 are in Salonika and its suburbs) ; 36 in Continental Greece and Epirus ; 40 in the Peloponnese ; and 43 in the Islands. The average weekly attendance is estimated at 700,000 ; annual gross returns at 65,000,000,000 drachmas. The Athens area accounts for approximately 60 per cent. Admission prices range from 1,500 drachmas in the cheapest provincial theatres to 4,000 drachmas in Athens first-run kinemas. Production : the annual output since 1945 has been about seven feature films, made at the four major producing studios. However, eight Greek productions were shown during the 1948-49 season. In addition, short subjects and newsreels are produced by the Under-Secretariat of State for Press and Information. No documentary or educational films have so far been produced by Greek studios. Distribution : the annual requirements are estimated at about 400 feature films In 1948-9, 411 films were shown : U.S., 303 ; Great Britain, 46 ; Greece, 8 ; France, 32 ; Italy, 12 ; Germany, 2 ; Turkey, 3 ; Egypt, 3 ; Mexico, 1 ; Austria, 1. — H. H. Wollenberg. HUNGARY HPHE Hungarian film industry was nationalised *■ in 1948, and is controlled by three Govern- ment enterprises : Hungarian Film Trade N.E. (Magyar Filinforgalmi N.V.) ; Hungarian Film- Production N.E. (Magyar Filmgyarto N.V.) ; and Cinematographic N.E. (Mozgokepiizemi N.V.). Their activities are co-ordinated and directed by the National Film-Office. Two studios, three laboratories, a distributing organisation, about 500 35 mm. and about 500 sub-standard theatres thus come within the gov- ernment monopoly. Uraina and Corvin Theatres remain outside. Export-import business is handled by Hun- garian Filmtrade N.E. As the result of nation- alisation Hungary's imports, formerly between 180-200 films per year, have been reduced to 110-120 pictures. Distribution and exhibition are handled mainly by the Cinematographic N.E., but 105 kinemas still remain in private hands. Technical development and maintenance of equipment is controlled by the Radio and Film Technical N.E. which is allied to the three national organisations. Eight features were produced under state control in 1948, and six features in 1949. STUDIOS Magyar Filmgyarto N.V. Hunnia Filmgyara, Gyarmat-utca 39, Budapest, XIV.

Since then the industry has had a chequered career. Like all pioneer efforts, there was no plan or order in its development. The industry somehow grew up into All-India propor- tions during the last 28 years. Kinemas : it is estimated that India has 2,000 permanent theatres and a little over 400 touring cinemas. Of these permanent kinemas, about 40 are exclusively English picture houses. The war-time prosperity induced the con- duction of more and better theatres all over India. But the Government of India, in order to conserve all available building materials for essential purposes, has imposed a total ban on the construction of new kinemas. Production : there are 62 studios operating in India. This number is distributed between Bombay, Calcutta and Madras. In point of production, number of studios and facilities available, Bombay well may be said to be the Hollywood of India. It alone has 27 studios, while Calcutta has 12 studios and Madras 17. Though the number is divided in terms of cities, it does include one or two studios in other towns, within the provinces of which these cities are the capitals. During 1948 Bombay produced nearly 190 pictures in Hindi ; Calcutta 39 in Bengali ; Madras 23 in Tamil, 6 in Tegulu and one each in Canarese and Malayalm. Thus the overall production amounted to 260 films on an all- India basis. While the figure for 1948 shows a predominance of Hindi pictures over provincial pictures, in actuality pictures produced in provincial languages during that year were on the increase. While the South Indian Film Industry has not made much progress, one remarkable thing it did during last year was to turn its attention to the production of pictures in Hindi. The first attempt was made by Gemini Studios, of Madras, who edited and dubbed a successful Tamil picture of theirs into Hindi. This is to be soon followed by another dubbed version of another of the Studios' earlier success. That the production figure was maintained more or less at the 1947 level is really a credit to the industry as a whole, inasmuch as it has been passing through a most difficult period, both in terms of availability of raw stock and ready finance. Financiers were as far away from' the film world as raw stock was. For want of necessary funds, in South India alone some 18 films were stilled in the initial and mid- stages of production. Tax: the industry as a whole pays to the Government the huge sum of Rs. 3,00,00,000 annually by way of entertainment tax ; while its net income amounts to Rs. 12,00,00,000 per annum. The levy of entertainment tax varies between 25 per cent, to 33.J per cent, on the box office collections. Censorship : rules have become too rigid, and the producers are hard put to make films that would in all respects conform with the general principles laid down in the Production Codes presented by the various Provincial Governments. Since the advent of total pro- hibition, it has become obligatory to cut out all drink scenes from the films. In view of these difficulties a suggestion has been put forward that the script of all pictures should be pre- censored so that the limited available raw stock may not be wasted, jj For want of finance and raw stock and due to keen competition from foreign pictures both in their original and dubbed versions, the Indian film industry was paralysed towards the close of 1948, and is still lying in a supine stage. This general paralysis has caused some wise persons in the industry to sit up and take notice. A general feeling is now creeping in that, if they all band themselves together into a corporate production unit, pooling all available talents and resources, the banner of the Indian film industry may be kept flying. Therein lies the only hope for the industry, unless a miracle happens in the shape of active governmental aid or total nationalisation of the industry. — N. V. Eswar. ISRAEL '"PHE film industry is under the direct control ■*■ of the Ministry of the Interior. Film censorship is in the hands of a board comprising representatives of the Government and one each from the Writers' Association, Office for Religious Affairs, W.I.Z.O. (Women's Israeli Zionist Organisation), Educational Department, Police, Social Welfare of Tel Aviv and the Youth Organisation. Censorship fees are: new features, I£i5 ; shorts I£3. 75 ; news- reels I/0.25. Kinemas. There are 75 static kinemas, 18 of which are regarded as first-run houses. Tel Aviv has seven ; Haifa, seven ; and Jerusalem, four. All are independently owned. ITALY THE Industry is controlled by the Central Cinematograph Office, at the Presidency of the Council of Cabinet Ministers. There are four sections; Production, in charge of Doctor Annibale Scicluna Sorge, vice-president of the Central Office; General Affairs (Dr. Girolamo della Valle) ; Management and Revision (Dr. Gianni de Tommasi) ; and Foreign Trade (Dr. Benito Orta). There are approximately 6,200 kinemas showing standard films and some 500 for sub- standard films. Total seating capacity is approximately 3,000,000. Chief circuits are E.N.I.C. (60) and E.C.I (80) . Admissions during 1948 amounted to over 42,000 million lire. Admission taxes : Up to 60 lire, 35 per cent. ; above 60 lire, 50 per cent. The ' ' Associazione Nazionale Industrie Cinematografiche " (A.N.I.C.A.) combines the interests of both producers and distributors. Practically all kinema owners in Italy belong to the "Associazione Generale Italiana dello Spettacolo " (A.G.I. S., 91 Via Sistina, Rome). There are a number of associations covering the substandard film industry. They are grouped into " Federazione Nazionale del Passo Ridotto" (34, Via Antonio Bosio, Rome). Production : Cost of a superfilm in Italy amounts to 200-300 million lire; "A" films 100-150 million lire ; " B " films, 50-80 million lire. Feature production in 1949 totalled 90 subjects. Remittance of profits made on the showing of foreign films in Italy is allowed only in the case of countries having a clearing agreement with Italy, and the distributors of other countries have to re- invest their profits in the production of Italian films. Overseas. 613 There are 14 studios with some 50 floors, the capacity of which is in the neighbourhood of 120 features. Studios in operation are : Rome : Cinecitta (14 floors) ; Scalera Film (6) ; Farnesina (4) ; Centro Sperimentale di Cine- matografia (Experimental Cinematographic Centre) (2) ; Safir (2) ; Capitani (1) ; Catalucci (1) ; Pax Film (2). Leghorn : Tirrenia (4). Turin : Fert (3). Venice : Scalera Film (3). Palermo : O.F.S. (3). Imports : During the first 9 months of 1949, about 392 foreign films were shown in Italy, amongst which the United States were repre- sented by 328 films ; Great Britain by 23 ; and France by 17. American producers lease their films to Italian kinemas on share-the-gross-takings basis. Under this arrangement usually about 50 to 60 per cent, goes to the producers. Other companies often sell their films outright and in such cases the price per film varies from 1 to 60 million lire. Legislation : Every Italian film over 2,000 metres long shown before December 31, 1949, received a subsidy equivalent to 10 per cent, of gross takings this film secures during four, months of showing. Such films will receive additional 6 per cent, grant if the Technical Committee finds that they possess exceptional cultural and artistic value. It was expected that the policy of subsidies would be continued by the Italian Government in 1950. Documentaries from 2.50 to 2,000 metres received a 3 per cent, subsidy. Italian newsreels received a subsidy equal to 2 per cent, of the gross takings during the first six months of their showing. All kinemas in the country must devote 20 days in each quarter of the year to showing Italian films of over 2,000 metres. All imported films must be accompanied by a certificate of origin. Custom duty amounts to 80 lire for every hundred metres and a 10 per cent, licence tax is charged on the invoice. To the sum resulting from the addition of taxes and invoice is applied a 4 per cent, sales tax. — G. Coppa Zuccari.

MEXICO 'THE Direccion General de Supervision • Cinematografica, a department of the Ministry of the Interior, is the Government authority responsible for all matters concerning the film industry in Mexico. Kinemas : 1,726, with 18 more reported under construction. Seating capacity : About i,4CO,ooo. Yearly total gross box office takings : 140,000,000 Mexican dollars — i.e., 20,000,000 U.S. dollars approx. Average weekly attendance: 2,500,000 persons. The most important kinema circuit is the Circuito Operadora de Teatros, S.A., with 30 houses. Others are Circuito del Norte (38), Primer Circuito (11) and Fuerade Circuito (3). A large 70-house circuit is owned by William O. Jenkins, a former U.S. consul. Admission prices : First-run theatres in Mexico City charge from 3" to 5 pesos (approx. 5s.). Admission prices for second-run theatres range from 0.80 to 1.50 pesos (approx. iod. and 25. respectively). Kinemas in towns outside the Federal District charge from 0.20 to 3 pesos (approx. 3d. to 3s. 6d.). Feature films numbered 345 in 1948, including U.S., 185 ; Mexican, 72 ; French, 28 ; British, 24 ; Argentine, 15 ; Italian, 9 ; Spanish, 8. Censorship : This is controlled by the Secret- aria de Gobernacion, Dept. de Supervision Cinematografico, Mexico City to whom films must be submitted before exhibition anywhere in the country. There are four classifications: "A" — suitable for adults, adolescents and children ; " B " — suitable for adults and adolescents; — "C" — suitable for adults only ; " D " — suitable for exhibition under special circumstances only. The latter must have special authorisation for each showing. Import duty on films with Spanish dialogue is fixed at 8 pesos per kilogram (approx. 10s.), whereas that on films with English dialogue is fixed at 20 pesos per kilogram, (approx £1 5s.). Since February, 1949, an import licence for films has been required in view of the balance- of-payments position. There are no general quota measures. Only theatres situated in the Federal district are liable to show at least one Mexican production each month ; this ruling, however, has not been enforced. There is another regulation that no foreign actors will be allowed to work in Mexico unless they are undei contract. Production : Mexico has 7 major studios, with 59 large stages, which provide facilities for 61 producers, all members of the Producers' Association ; 15 of whom can be considered actually active. Average annual production is approx. 80 features and 75 short subjects. The Credito Cinematografico Mexicano (Mexican Film Bank) was formed with Government backing and with a capitalisation of about 15 million pounds sterling to strengthen Mexican production. Loans are given up to 60 per cent, of production costs. Average production costs are estimated at 450,000 pesos. Total invest- ment in the industry at the beginning of 1949 was estimated at about 400 million pesos. It set a ceiling on production costs with a view to keeping down the rapidly rising expenditure. Guidance and supervision of production is entrusted to the National Film Commission. — H. H. WOLLENBERG. 614 The Kinematograph Year Book. STUDIOS Estudios Azteta, Esq.

The industry, distributors as well as exhibitors, is organised in the Nederlandse Bioscoop Bond. Number of kinemas in operation : 461 ; about 18 mobile outfits. No 16 mm. theatres. There are about 11 circuits controlling from three to 12 kinemas. The most important circuit is N.V. Maatschappij Tuschinski, 20 Hobbemastraat, Amsterdam, which owns several theatres in Amsterdam, Rotterdam, The Hague and Schiedam, and has more interests. The Rank organisation as well is interested in this circuit. Other important circuits : N.V. Mij. tot Exploitatie van het City Theater, 24, Nieuwstraat The Hague, with theatres in Amsterdam, Rotterdam and The Hague, Rema Circuit theatres in Amsterdam and surroundings, 226, Kalverstraat, Amsterdam, and N.V. Ver. Theatres, Postbus 2, Heerlen. Admissions show a further decrease: 75,000,000 in 1948, 79,800,000 in 1947, 88,700,000 in 1946. Average seat prices range from fl. 0.40 to fl. 1.25. Foreign films shown during 1948 included 438 features ; U.S.A. 290, England 64, France 39, Italy 18, the remainder from smaller countries. Censorship : Two censorship boards, the Governmental Centrale Commissie Voor de Filmkeuring at The Hague for the whole country, and a Catholic Board which functions for the provinces Brabant and Limburg (both Catholic), where each film must be passed by both censor- ship organisations. Costs : 6 cents per meter. Distribution : From September 1, 1948, till January 1, 1950, theatres are obliged to release during a minimum of r6 weeks features which are not produced in the U.S.A., and for which no dollars are paid or no dollars-debt will be created. Production: After " Niet tvergeefs " (But Not in Vain) a second picture was made in the Cinetone Studios (newly equipped), " Een Koninkrijk Voor een Huis " (A Kingdom for a House). Entertainment tax : Still 35 per cent, as an average. Smaller towns only decrease this percentage. — Philip De Schaap. STUDIOS.

PARAGUAY rpHE National Department of Press and Pro- •*■ paganda is the authority responsible in film matters, but no censorship is imposed, except for the control of domestic production of cultural and propaganda shorts or newsreels. The number of kinemas is estimated at 33, with two more under construction. Ten are in the capita] (Asuncion) where a modern theatre, seating 1,700, was due to open early in 1949. Admission prices : Range from 0.40 to 1.50 guaranis (1 guarani roughly US, $0.30). In 1946, the gross income of Paraguayan kinemas totalled approximately US, $300,000. Distribution : 450 feature films, 100 shorts and 150 newsreels are required annually. The percentage of films exhibited is approximately : U.S., 70 per cent. ; Argentine, 20 per cent. ; Mexico, 5 per cent. ; Britain, 3 per cent. ; Italy, 1 per cent. ; France, 1 per cent. Municipal taxes : 5 per cent, of the total gross box-office receipts. Theatres also have to pay an annual licence tax. — H. H. Wollenberg. PERU HTHE Government Department responsible for *■ film matters in Peru is the Direccion de Publicidad del Ministerio de Gobierno (Seccion Cine) — the Publicity Department of the Ministry of the Interior, Kinema Section. Kinemas: Statics 235; mobile 35-mm 400; mobile 16-mm 10. The largest circuits are " Empresa Peruana de Cines " and " Empresa Peruana-Parlante." The largest theatre " Perricholi," seating 1,850, was opened at Lima, in March, 1949. Admission prices : Matinees in first-run kinemas in Lima, Callao and suburbs, 1.50 soles Overseas. 615 (approx. is.), i.oo sol, 0.60 sol and 0.50 sol ; afternoon and evening, 2.00 soles, (about is. 4d.) 1.50 soles, 0.80 sol and 0.60 sol. Other theatres; matinees from 0.30 sol to 1.00 sol ; afternoon and evening, from 0.40 sol to 1.50 soles. These prices do not include the 10 per cent municipal tax. There is a 10 per cent tax on the gross income of film distributors in Peru. The Film Censorship Board, for which pro- vision was made in a decree of January, 27 1949, was formally installed on February 23, 1949. The following types of films were named as un- suitable for exhibition : (1) Anarchical and Communistic films, and those contrary to patriotic feeling ; (2) crime films in which criminals are not punished ; (3) films with morbidly sensual themes. During the first quarter of 1949, features sub- mitted for censorship totalled 170, including U.S., 65 ; Mexico, 30 ; Argentina, 20 ; Britain, 14 ; China, 9 ; France, 9 ; Italy, 8 ; Spain, 8. New exchange control regulations require special prior permits from the Ministry of Finance for imports of films. A satisfactory arrangement under provision of these regulations has been made by distributing companies with the Peruvian authorities concerned. Customs : There is an import duty of 12 soles per kilogram of film, plus 20 per cent according to special regulation No. 9467 ; 1 per cent for the encouragement of art ; 2 per cent ad valorem tax computable on a minimum value of 30 soles per kilo, with 20 per cent surcharge ; 1 per cent ad valorem tax, allocated to a fund for the unemployed, with an additional charge on the weight of the container ; 4 soles per metric ton. Quota : There is no restrictive or protective legislation. Production during the first three months of 1949 consisted of 8 newsreels and 7 docu- mentaries. A new firm, " Artistas Cinemato- graficas Unidos S.A.," which is entirely Peruvian, is being organised with a view to promoting production. — H. H. Wollenberg. PORTUGAL THE main Government Department dealing with films is the Secretariado Nacional de Informacao, Cultura Popular e Turismo in Lisbon. There is a sub-division of Espectaculos and again a section for the kinema. This Department awards three prizes annually for the best Portuguese films. It also supervises the application of the quota law of December 27, 1946, by which one week in six has to be reserved for the showing of home-produced films. Exhibition of films dubbed, or spoken in Por- tuguese is permitted only when they are made in Brazil, or if in any other country, under co- production arrangements authorised with the following conditions : Participation of Portuguese capital in the minimum proportion of 25 per cent. ; Portuguese studios must be used alter- nately ; at least two Portuguese technicians and at least two Portuguese actors (in principal parts) must be employed. A special tax is payable by theatres on all foreign films. Customs and other duties represent about 25 per cent, of the revenues of the industry — exhibitors' admission taxes, etc., amount to about 30 per cent. The Inspeccao Geral dos Espectaculos and the Ministry of National Education, Lisbon, issues the special licenses for imported films. The number of theatres in operation in 1948 was 348 standard theatres ; average capacity is 500 to 1,000 ; 6 over 1,000 are in Lisbon ; 5 at Porto. The Coliseum Circuit controls 4,000 seats at Lisbon and 3,000 at Porto. Production: Decree Law No. 37/371, pub- lished on April 11, 1949, allots to the Film Fund a 1949 budget of 7,000 contos (U.S. $280,000). Subsidies have been granted for the production of four documentaries since the fund was estab- lished by the Films Council, in March, 1948. Lisboa Filmes now control all existing pro- duction facilities, including the three studios. Five Portuguese-made features were released in 1948 ; two were in production early in 1949. Trade organisations : exhibitors — Gremio Nacional dos Cinemas ; distributors — Gremio Nacional dos Distribudores de Filmes Cinema- tograficos ; employees — Sindicato Nacional dos Professionals de Cinema. — H. H. Wollenberg SOUTH AFRICA THERE are over 500 kinemas in the Union. The five main circuits are African Consolid- ated Theatres, M-G-M, 20th Century-Fox, Union Theatres (Pty.), and Western Province Cinemas. Admission prices : First release charges are from 2s. 4. to 4s. 1 id., but in smaller theatres, and particularly those catering for the coloured trade, they are as low as iod. Entertainment tax comes under the Provincial Councils. Highest is in the Cape where tax is 50 per cent, of admissions. Censorship : Controlled in Cape Town by Union Board of Censors, applies to all films (including newsreels) and advertisements. The code rejects nudity, suggestiveness, undue horror, offence to religious susceptibilities, fights between women or between European and coloured people. The following classes of certificates are granted : A, general exhibition ; B, European only ; C, excluding Natives ; D, other restrictions (children under 16 or 12, excluding coloureds, etc.). Fee for censorship is £d. per foot. Customs : A duty of 6d. per foot is levied on first copies of all sound films imported, whether 35 or 16 mm. Second and subsequent copies are charged 4d. per foot and silents are rated at 2d. per foot. If judged to be purely educa- tional films are admitted duty free. There are no quota restrictions. Production : One full - length Afrikaans musical " Kom Saam Vanaand " was completed by African Film Productions during 1948. SPAIN MOST important bodies concerned with films are the Subcomision Reguladora de la Cinematografia and the Sindicato Nacional del Espectaculo. Both are represented in the Junta Superior de Ordenacion Cinematografica (Superior Council for the Control of the Kinema) , the president of which is the Director-General of the Kinema and Theatre. The Council is responsible for film censorship and for guidance to all branches of the industry. Distribution : there are about 220 distributors operating in Spain. According to Subcomision 616 The Kinematograph Year Book. Reguladora figures, 127 films were imported in 1948, including 60 U.S., 50 Spanish-American and 17 European origin. According to the latest censorship statistics, in the year ended Septem- ber, 1948, the censorship board passed 331 feature films, including 60 Spanish, 173 U.S., 33 Mexican, 14 French, 14 Italian, 13 Argentine, 10 British and 9 Swedish. The actual total number of films first shown in 1948 was 277, including 141 U.S., 41 Spanish and 29 Mexican. There are approximately 3,665 kinemas, a 14 per cent, increase over the 1947 figure. Seating capacity is estimated at 1,752,000. Weekly attendance estimated at approximately 5 million. Admission prices : Madrid, 15 pesetas for first-run houses, 6 pesetas for second-run houses, 3 pesetas at suburban houses. In major provincial towns : first-run houses 7 pesetas, second-run houses 4 pesetas, all other houses 2 pesetas. In smaller places, admissions vary from 1 to 2 pesetas. It is estimated that approx. 700 million pesetas p.a. are taken in at the box offices, 200 million of which is remitted to the State. Gross receipts from films in their first-run are shared on a fifty-fifty basis by distributors and exhibitors ; 30 per cent., however, is deducted for entertainment tax and another 5 per cent, for " Proteccion de Menores " (Protection of Minors) tax. Kinemas are liable to show a Spanish film one week out of six unless the Sindicato of the Spanish film industry cannot provide the Theatre with a Spanish production. Imports from foreign countries, except Argentina, require import licences. Import licences are granted in proportion to the number of Spanish films produced or distributed by a company. The licences are granted to Spanish producers only, and the number granted is depen- dent on the classification of their Spanish films. Only 53 import licences were awarded to Spanish producers during the first 11 months of 1948, for the production of 39 films. Licences for dubbing are also awarded under a regulation of July 29, 1948. Spanish films declared of "national im- portance " get three dubbing licences. Two licences are granted for each Spanish film classified as first category ; one licence for second category films. The third category includes all films not deserving of any Gover- ment protection. The classifications are effected by a specially appointed committee while the granting of import licences is handled by the Ministry of Industry and Commerce. Home production is also encouraged by Government grants. There are roughly 90 production companies apart from a number of documentary, cartoon and other shorts producers. Of the 13 Studios the most important are Estudios C.E.A., Ciudad Lineal, Madrid; Sevilla Film Studios, Chamartin de la Rosa, Madrid ; Orphea, Parque de Montjuicb, Barcelona. In addition, there are six dubbing studios, and 13 laboratories. The annual output of feature films is about 50 at an estimated cost of 24 million pesetas ; and a like number of shorts of all kinds. The first Spanish colour film was shown in 1949. The average cost of a feature-length produc- tion is 2.5 million pesetas although some super productions cost up to five million pesetas. — H. H.

SWEDEN MAIN government department dealing with the trade is Statens Biografbyra (President: Jan Gunnar Lindstrom) which deals with censor- ship. Kinemas : 2,484, according to the statistics for January 1, 1949. Of these only 566 kinemas give two performances regularly every evening, while the remainder (1,918) give between one to nine performances every week, except during the summer months, when there usually is a close- down. Majority of kinemas in Sweden are controlled by circuits, 434 by welfare organisations, and about the same number by independent owners. Among the leading circuits is Svensk Filrn- industri and Svenska Forenade Biograf AB, both operating from Stockholm. Admission taxes : 30 per cent, up to one krona and then 45 per cent. Customs fees : 15.75 kronor per kilo. Distribution : handled by independent dis- tributors who operate as importers, except the "big eight" American distributors, which preferably handle their own import of films from their U.S. -offices and studios. England is represented by Svenska AB Eagle-Lion, and by Wive Film, the latter being Swedish distribu- tor for Sir Alexander Korda London Film. Selznick Release Organisation, which until last year was represented by United Artists, now is represented by Svensk Filrnindustri, the leading Swedish producer-distributor. Reports from distributors have said that the situation is satisfactory, except for imports from some countries in Central Europe, due to the fact that film imports have not been included in valid commercial agreements with these governments. A total of 292 films were shown at the first-run houses in Stockholm during 1949 : U.S., 168 ; England, 35 ; Sweden, 34 ; France, 24 ; Germany, 7 ; Italy, 7 ; Denmark, 5 ; Czecho- slovakia, 3 ; Austria, 2 ; Mexico, 2 ; and 1 each from Argentina, Canada, Finland, Poland and Switzerland. Many of the British films shown in Sweden are not of sufficiently high class to create good- will for the British film production among Swedish kinema-goers. One of the few successes of foreign origin during 1949 is the French-made " Clochemerle." Production has been limited since the high entertainment taxes went into force on February 3, 1948. The higher taxes were immediately followed by higher admission prices, and reduced attendance, which is expected to have dropped 15 to 20 per cent. Swedish producers have asked the government for financial help, and the Swedish Riksdag (Parliament) have ordered a committee to investigate the situation. As such committees usually work very slowly there is no Overseas. 617 rapid change expected. Some Swedish producers have started to produce their films in foreign versions for the world markets : Lorens Marm- stedt (Terra Film), during the past summer, produced " Singoalla " in Swedish, English and French versions, and Inge Ivarsson (Kungs- film) is to start productions in co-operation with American producers. Only a few of the films produced during 1949 could compete in the world markets. Best Swedish films during 1949 are : " Soldat Bom," " Eva," and " Kvinna I Vitt " (Svensk Fumindustri) ; " Gatan," " Flottans Kavaljerer " (Kungsfilm), and " Fengelse " (Terra Film). English and Swedish versions : "Singoalla" (Terra Film) and " Havets Son" (Sandrew-Bauman Film). Censorship : films are classified into three categories — White Seal (totally banned), Red Seal (general audiences), and Yellow Seal (adults only). — Svex G. Winquist.

TURKEY "\T7HILE there are no special restrictions on film importation an admission tax differential of 70 per cent, on imported films and 25 per cent, on native films has been intro- duced since August 1, 1948. Admission prices are fixed by municipalities. Distribution : First-run films shown during the seven months from September, 1948, to March, 1949, totalled 189, including 117 U.S. ; 19 French, 15 British, 15 Italian, 14 Turkish, 7 Egyptian, 1 Greek, 1 Spanish. Of the imported films, 50 were dubbed in Turkish. Kinemas : Estimated at 200 to 250 — 50 of them operating during the hot summer period ; 100 — 150 during the winter season. A modern theatre was opened in Ankara early in 1949, the " Buyuk," seating 1,600. Two other major kinemas are under construction in Ankara and Adana, respectively. Production : 10 feature films in 1946 ; 7 in 1947 ; 14 in 1948 ; 20 to 25 films are expected in 1949. Two studios are in operation. H. H. WOLLEXBERG. SWITZERLAND THE Federal decree of July 7, 1939, granting distributors the right to import feature films to the same extent as were imported during the four-year period from January 1, 1935, to December 31, 1938, is the only Federal legisla- tion concerning the film. The establishment of new distributing firms is thus practically im- possible, as they would not be able to obtain a share in the quota. The Schweizer Filmkammer, Berne (Swiss Film Chamber), calls for a gradual decrease of imports through the application of the import regulations. Switzerland has 410 kinemas, according to the latest figures. These include 245 in the German, 137 in the French, and 28 in the Italian-speaking areas of the Federation. Film censorship and other legislation is the prerogative of each of the 25 Cantons which form the Swiss Federation ; their rulings differ widely. The total of theatres in the German- and Italian-speaking areas are organised within the Schweizer Lichtspiel Theatre Verband, Bahnhof strasse 89, Zurich ; the theatres in the French- speaking area in the Association Cinemato- graphique Suisse Romande, with headquarters at 6, rue du Lion d'Or, Lausanne. The renters' organisation is Film-Verleiher Verband in der Schweiz, Marktgasse, 37, Berne. Only members of these organisations are permitted to distribute or exhibit films. There is also a special ruling by which a sub-standard film can only be hired from a renter who owns the 35 -mm. rights of the film. There is also a producers' association, Verband Schweizerischer Film-Produzenten, Rennweg 59, Zurich ; its members are essentially concerned with the production of shorts. The two major studios are at Zurich and at Munchenstein (Basle). STUDIOS Filmstudio Bellerive A.-G., Kreuzstrasse 2, Zurich. Tonfilm Frobenius A,-6., Munchenstein, Basle. VENEZUELA "\^EXEZUELA has approximately 338 com- » mercial- kinemas. Total seating capacity of 225,000 for 3,500,000 inhabitants. The most important kinema circuit is the Circuito Venez- olano de Cines with 25 houses. The Carcel y Muro circuit has 4 first-run houses in the capital. Admission prices : First-run theatres in Caracas, the capital, charge from 0.50 to 3.25 bolivars (approx. 3s. iod.) ; Second-run and other theatres in Caracas, 0.25 to 1.25 bolivars. In other big cities prices range from 0.25 to 2.50 bolivars. Censorship : all films are censored by board under the name of Junta Revisora de Espectac- ulos. Films are classified as 'A" for unrestricted exhibition and " B " for adults only. Customs duties : These vary according to the value of the film and the duty L paid on the gross weight. Film material on which duty has to be paid is classified as follows : prints, photographic propaganda material and posters. So far no restrictions on foreign films have been imposed. Production •„ the only two production com- panies are Productora Cinematografica Bolivar Films, at Chacao, and Atlas Films, at Caracas. Production facilities consist of two studios and stages. Output is estimated at 5 features. 20 shorts and 80 newsreels per annum. Distribution : the annual demand is estimated at 450 feature films, 200 shorts, and 300 news- reels. A programme for the showing of education films in schools was instituted by the Vene- zuelan Ministry of National Education some years ago, but owing to lack of funds this programme was never fully developed. The Government produced three educational films of good quality, but the studios in which they were made have since shut down and nothing further has been done in respect of educational films. — H.
