So I would like to put this question to you ladies and gentlemen listening right this moment: Have you seen and enjoyed any of the pictures we have made? Have you ever read a line or heard a line, or seen any overt act? Have you ever left the theatre thinking that perhaps you might like the form of govern- é ment that was being portrayed on the screen better than the American form of government? . . g . ,. _ , -1,--t--Q Actually, your voices are what we need. You are the ones who are.;upposed 4 to tell the people who are running this Committee that you don't believe that what you are seeing in pictures is Communist-dominated, or acts of Communists, or that they are trying to overthrow the government. We are not doing that in the motion picture industry. We are very proud of our industry being a clean, wholesome entertainment, and we'd like to hear your voices on it agreeing with us in that matter.

-_.~.-._. Thank you. It seems to me that many of you listeners may well be confused about these "522*3 issues which are being so loudly discussed on both sides, and perhaps we can clear up something for you by telling you our position about this. J You may wonder ay, if Communism is a dangerous threat to our national _ security, why we seem to be in a position of objecting to some of the procedure 7.4-_ 4»,- of the Committee that is investigating this very movement in our country;- It's w< our feeling that the cert is before the horse. If Communism is as dangerous as we are told, and it may well be...this is not our authority to decide...then surely the proper authorities, such as the FBI, should be appointed by the government to arrive at this, and if it is this dangerous, then it must be outlawed. We feel it should be outlawed before reputations are put at stake, and people's lives and jobs are jeopardized through only being suspected of belonging to o party which is at this moment still 1 legal party. And we feel 5? that the order has been reversed rather shamefully for the publicity for a government's group. _ - g } -
