California Senator Lauds
American Film Industry
Thomas II. Kachel of California
in in address to the Senate on
Thunday, Feb. 26, paid tribute to
the motion picture Induatry a? ?
significant "international messen
ger" that produces a "vaatly ad
mired commodity all over the
world."
Senator Kuchel's remarks, after
the Academy Awards nominations,
follow :
"As many of my colleagues who
have traveled widely know, to most
people abroad the word California
frequently means Hollywood and
the movies.
"So pervasive and widespread is
this great American medium that
the names of many American mo
vie stars and of many American
films are almost as well known
as that of the Great American
president whose birth the Nation
observed Sunday.
"In carrying out another annual
custom of wide significance, the
American motion picture industry
has just paid deserved compli
ments to some of its personnel who
typify the reason American movies
are a. potent force for better un
derstanding of our way of life
among peoples of varied races and
cultures.
"The respected Academy of Mo
tion Picture Arts and Sciences has
just announced the 19S9 nomina
tions for its widely known and
coveted Oscar awards. Presenta
tion to the final winners will be
made next month over a nation
wide network expected to bring
the ceremony to an audience of
90 million people.
"Hollywood, of course, is more
than a place of glamor and excite
ment. Hollywood is big business
by any standards. It is the base
for one of California's leading in
dustries; it affords employment
to many thousands of persons in
my state directly, and to scores
of more thousands ? all over the
Nation and around the globe? in
directly. Its impact economically
and culturally is world wide.
"Today, more than ever, this
universal character of the motion
picture is typified in the nomina
tions made for the awards for per
formance and accomplishment for
the put year. Foreign picture*,
foreign actors and actresses, fut
elgn technician* from many coun
tries ire on the lists of nominee*.
"And these Dominations are im
portant news, *11 over the world.
Today, in Rome and Paris and
Bombay and New Delhi and Tokyo
and hundreds of other cities
abroad, the names of these nom
inees are being talked about by
movie-goers.
"The American motion picture
has become an international mes
senger. It h*s brought America
to the doorstep of the most remote
villager in all the far-flung places
of the world. American motion
pictures are a vastly admired com
modity all over the world, alike
in countries which have no picture
production of their own, and in
countries which are major pro
ducers.
"Thus, In India and Japan, which
numerically produce far more pic
tures than the United States, our
technique, our artistic talent, our
writers, and our actors and Ac
tresses are regarded as the acme
of the profession.
"We are pleased that in all coun
tries American pictures out-draw
by wide margins the films of any
other country Even behind the
Iron Curtain, long lines stand pa
tiently waiting to pay admission
! to see an American film in pref
erence to watching free or for a
pittance a subsidized Russian pic
ture."
The above statement by Senator
Thomas H. Kuchel of California
along with other statements from
people who hold public office
i should prove that American movies
are in fact "international messen
gers" and are well known all over
the world.

Boatmen in Accidents
To Report on New Form
Norfolk? A new accident report
ing program for boatmen has been
put in use by the Coast Guard. All
accidents involving motorboats or
pleasure craft occurring on federal
waters must be reported to the
Coast Guard if they result in loss
of life, injury to any person causing
incapacitation for over 72 hours,
or in damage to property in excess
of 100 dollars.
If loss of life results from an
accident, a report must be made
within 48 hours. All other accidents
must be reported within five days.
Every report must be made in
writing and submitted to the Coait
Guard marine inspectiorw-ttffiM
nearest the place of the M^idenC
In the event that more than one
boat is involved in a accident, a
separate report must be submitted
by the operator of each boat. If
the operator is not physically cap
able of making the report, it should
be made by the boat owner or
other person familiar with the facts
of the accident.
A Coait Guard Form (CG-3865),
Boating Accident Report, has been
designed to simplify and minimize
the writing required by an opera

Never Steal Anything 8mal!, a
rough, tough waterfront story per
fectly suited to the brilliant artis
try of James Cagney, will win
overwhelming plaudits from the
audience when it opens Friday at
the Morehead theatre.
With Shirley Jones joining Cag
ney in the robust story, notably
abetted by co-stars Roger Smitfi
and Cara Williams this picture is
guaranteed to chase anybody's
blues away.
A powerful picture that is
marked with sustained action and
an overall quality of general ex
cellence, Never Love A Stranger
will open Wednesday at the More
head Theatre.
Never Love a Stranger is not
a "pretty" picture. It is a harsh,
violent study of the era when
America was harsh and violent?
the era of the gangster and rac
keteer. But there is an undertone
of tenderness and warmth that
makes it all add up to high drama
in every sense of the word.
Randolph Scott stars in Ride
Lonesome, which will open Sunday
at the City theatre, and co-stars
Karen Steele. Ride Lonesome is
in color.
Scott plays a bounty hunter
whose only friend is his gun. A
former sheriff, he had sent to
prison a notorious gunman who,
breaking out, had slain Scott's
beautiful young wife. Now, Scott
lives for the day he can wreak re
venge on the gunman.
Playing Wednesday and Thurs
day at the City theatre is a double
feature, Paratroop Command, star
ring Jack Ilogan and Submarine
Seahawk, starring Bratt Halsey.
Friday and Saturday is children's
day at the City with a double fea
ture made up of Snowfire and The
Littlest Hobo. Snowfire is a pic
ture about a wild white stallion
