AMERICAN FILM MONOPOLY
ATTACK IN NEW SOUTH WALES
Sydney, December 26.
It is expected that the Government will earnestly attack the American film monopoly early in the New Year for the purpose of stimulating the production of British pictures. It is more than likely that the Government will insist on the compulsory inclusion in all programmes of 10 per cent, of British films, with the object of increasing the industry’s development. The Government is also expected to replace the existing voluntary censorship by a compulsory one, which will be an important difference, as a committee’s original scheme providing for the compulsory screening of certain British films was rejected by a small majority. Exhibitors will now be asked to submit further proposals.—Press Assn.
