of readings on a 5-inch hand-
calibrated scale fitted with an anti-
parallax mirror, and is guaranteed
accurate to B.S. first-grade limits
on D.C. and A.C. from 25 c/s to 2 kc/s.
The meter will differentiate between
A.C. and D.C. supply, the switching
being electrically interlocked. The
total resistance of the meter is
500,000 ohms.
CURRENT: A.C. and D.C. 0 to 10 amps.
VOLTAGE : A.C. and D.C. 0 to 1,000 volts.
RESISTANCE : Up to 40 megohms.
CAPACITY: -01 to 20 mFds.
AUDIO-FREQUENCY POWER OUTPUT:
0 to 2 watts.
DECIBELS: — 25Db to 4- 16Db.
Various accessories are available for extend-
ing the wide ranges ot measurements.
The instrument is self-contained, com-
pact and portable, simple to operate and
almost impossible to damage electrically.
It is protected by an automatic cut-out
against damage through inadvertent
overload.
By means of an external accessory (the Universal AvoMeter Power Factor and
Wattage Unit), power factor and power can be measured in A.C. circuits.

PICTURE PRESENTATION
Panoramic Projection. The aspect ratio of the standard film frame of 1.33
to 1 may be modified by masking off top and bottom of the frame. Ratios
commonly used are 1.66, 1.75 and 1.85 to 1, of which the second is most
general. (See table, page 453).
Conversion from standard ratio comprises fitting new aperture plates to the
projectors ; fitting lenses of shorter focal length (about J the previous focus) ;
and installation of screen of required dimensions.
CinemaScope. The CinemaScope system employs a non-standard film having
a picture aperture of .912ins. by .715ins. ; it carries four magnetic tracks, and
the perforations are narrower than usual.
Conversion of equipment comprises fitting magnetic sound heads below
upper spool boxes ; alteration of sprockets ; fitting new aperture plates and
preferably non-magnetic film path components ; generally new lenses of
slightly longer focal length ; anamorphic lenses ; and installation of curved
screen of aspect ratio 2.55 to 1.
StereoSCOpy. 3-D projection necessitates running two films in synchronism.
Projectors must be interlocked electrically or mechanically. Films are released
in 3,000ft. or 5,000ft. reels, necessitating fitting of new spool boxes and alter-
ation to rewinders. Polarising filters are needed in front of lenses ; viewers
must be provided for patrons. A screen of non-diffusing type is required.
Two systems permitting of 3-D projection from single films have been
i experimentally demonstrated.
SCREEN BRIGHTNESS
To measure incident light intensity, mount photometer one-third the height
of screen, and take readings at each side of screen, in the centre, and inter-
mediately (five in all). Average ofjreadings gives light intensity in foot-candles.
BS1404 : 1953 requires the screen to have a reflected brightness, as viewed
from any seat in the auditorium, of 8 to 16 foot-lamberts. To attain this
figure will necessitate with a new matt screen an incident intensity of 10 to 20
foot-candles, and correspondingly more as the screen ages. With a silver or
beaded screen the figure will depend upon the characteristics of the screen.
The surfaces of panoramic or CinemaScope screens have directional char-
acteristics, therefore installation of a panoramic screen rarely necessitates any
increase in illumination; CinemaScope generally does, although not in proportion
to the doubled area of the picture. 3-D projection necessitates a very con-
siderable increase, since against the added screen efficiency must be set an
absorption of 60% to 70% of the polarising filters and viewers.
STEREOPHONIC SOUND
Of the four tracks on CinemaScope film, the three wider ones feed into
speakers respectively left, right and centre of the screen. The fourth track
controls the speakers around the auditorium ; a 12,000 c/s control frequency
mutes these speakers when they are not in use.
Minimum additional equipment comprises magnetic sound heads as above-
mentioned ; at least three separate amplifier, channels with ganged volume
fcontrols ; and additional speaker assemblies ei ther side of the screen and in the
auditorium .

The Legal Outlook
by ELLIS F. PINKNEY, Solicitor to
The Cinematograph Exhibitors' Association
THE event of greatest legal
significance to the trade in 1954
is the bringing into operation
of the Cinematograph Act 1952. In
reply to a question in the House of
Commons on March 4, the Home
Secretary said that it was expected
that the Act would become effective
as from July 1, 1954.
On pages 508-51 1 there will be found
full notes of the cumulative effect of
the new and old acts which will now
be referred to as the Cinematograph
Act 1909 and 1952. Here is a
summary of the more important
points :
As from the appointed day, an
exhibitor will no longer be able to
operate without a licence on
account of the fact that he uses
safety film exclusively. This is
the case both for 35mm. and sub-
standard film.
New Cinematograph Regulations
dealing with safety and electrical
matters are issued in conjunction
with the Act, and on the specified
date previous Home Office regula-
tions are repealed. In the case,
however, of any licence granted
before the repeal of the former
regulations, such licence will not
be regarded as having attached to
it any more stringent conditions
than existed at the time it was
granted.
The consent of the licensing
authority must be obtained for
shows organised wholly or mainly
for children and given after the
appointed day.
The new provisions regarding an
exhibitor's right of appeal against
conditions imposed by a licensing
authority and in relation to music
and dancing licences not being
required for kinematograph ex-
hibitions become operative.
Some brief notes on what it is
expected will be included in the
new regulations appear on page 512.
In addition to empowering the
Secretary of State to make regulations
regarding safety, the new Act also
makes provision for the issue of
regulations providing for the health
and welfare of children in relation to
attendance at kinematograph ex-
hibitions.
At the time of going to press, the
draft regulations had not been
published. A number of recom-
mendations have been submitted to
the Home Office by the Cinema Con-
sultative Committee and it was
expected that the regulations would
cover such points as the minimum
age of unaccompanied children for
admission to kinemas and the
prohibition of admission of un-
accompanied children to kinemas
after fixed times.
In the field of entertainments tax,
a matter which affected both ex-
hibitors and renters has been the
incidence of the tax in relation to
the use of polarised viewers or
glasses in connection with 3-D films.
At the time when it was the practice
for glasses to be hired to patrons, the
Customs and Excise adhered to the
view that the amount of the hire fee
constituted part of the price of
admission to the entertainment and
consequently attracted tax.
The argument in this case was that
a payment for an admission to an
entertainment meant an effective
admission and that in the absence of
glasses, the patron was not so
admitted. However, this situation
has been eased due to the intro-
duction of viewers which are sold
outright to the public. On the
understanding that their sale is
subject to the following conditions
Customs and Excise has agreed that
no liability for tax arises : —
Admission to the kinema on
any specific occasion must be in

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.)
DE 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
Srst 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 ii
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 ?hall be disregarded
unless, upon an application made not later
than the end of that period by a renter
having a right to distiibute the film in Great
Britain, the Board of Trade, after consulting
the Cinematograph Films Council and con-
496
The Kinemato graph 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
(b) 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

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 to 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 ;

(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 bv 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

shown to the public, after deduction of
entertainments duty within the meaning
of the Finance (New Duties) Act, 1916.

(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

the purpose as being suitable for such ex-
hibition by reason of their entertainment value.

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 for 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.

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

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

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 nonstandard films.

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.

Council shall be varied as follows, that is to
say —

employed by makers of British films.

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.

(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

ments consequential on the provisions of

altering the percentages prescribed for the
purposes of those provisions by the First

undertaking as would, if it were legally binding
on the exhibitor, impose on him an obligation,
either actual or contingent, to take delivery
of a film to which this Act applies, for public
exhibition at a theatre in Great Britain,
being a film which had not been trade-shown
at the time of his giving the undertaking :
Provided that this subsection shall not operate

actual or contingent, to take delivery of a film
to which this Act applies for public exhibition
at a theatre in Great Britain at a date later
than six months after the date on which he
gives the undertaking.
Provided that, in relation to any serial film or
series of films, this section shall not operate
so as to restrict the making of an agreement

graoh Films Act 1948, it purports to impose
on any exhibitor an obligation, either
actual or contingent, to take delivery of a
film to which this Act applies for public
exhibition at a theatre in Great Britain,
being a film which has not been trade-
shown at the time of the making of the
agreement, or
(6) in the case of an agreement made more
than six months before the expiry of the
said section one, it purports to impose on
any exhibitor an obligation, either actual
or contingent, to take delivery of a film to
which this Act applies for public exhibition

later than six months after the date on
which the agreement is made :
Provided that the preceding provisions of this

Board of Trade, produce to that person such
books or other documents, and furnish to that
person such other information, with respect
to any film delivered or to be delivered by
him to any exhibitor in Great Britain for
public exhibition therein, being a film to
which this Act applies, as the Board may
require for the purpose of the enforcement of

ment as is declared by Part II of this Act to

25. — Determination of films to be treated as
British films for purposes of registration.
(1) Subject to the following provisions of this
section, a film shall, for the purpose of the
registration thereof under this Part of this
Act, be deemed to be a British film if, and only
if either it is made by or on behalf of a depart-
ment of His Majesty's Government in the
United Kingdom, or by or on behalf of the
Government of any other part of His Majesty's
dominions, or — ■
(a) the maker of the film was, throughout the
time during which the film was being made,
either a British subject or a British company,
and
(b) the studio, if any, used in making the film
was within His Majesty's dominions, and
(c) not less than the requisite amount of labour
costs represents payments paid or payable
in respect of the labour or services of
British subjects or persons domiciled in
some part of His Majesty's dominions.
(2) In paragraph (a) of the preceding subsection
the expression " a British company " means a
company incorporated under the laws of any
part of His Majesty's dominions, being a
company the directors of which, or the majority
of the directors of which, were British subjects ;
and for the purpose of paragraphs (a) and (c)
of that subsection, any film used for making
photographs depicted as part of any scene
in the film which is the subject of the applica-
tion for registration, shall be deemed to form
part of the last-mentioned film ; and in
paragraph (c) of that subsection the expression
" the requisite amount of labour costs " means,
in relation to any film —
(a) (in a case where the total labour costs of
the film amount to not less than thirty-
three thousand seven hundred and fifty
pounds, and the quotient derived from
dividing the amount of the said total labour
costs by the number of feet comprised in the
length of the film is a sum of not less than
four pounds ten shillings) whichever of the
two following amounts is the less, that is
to say —
Cinematograph Films Act, 1948.
503
(i) the amount arrived at by applying the
fraction three-quarters to the total
labour costs of the film, after deducting
therefrom, if the applicant for regis-
tration so desires, the amount of any
payment which, as part of those costs,
has been paid or is payable in respect
of the labour or services of any one
person who was, while engaged in the
making of the film, neither a British
subject nor a person domiciled in some
part of His Majesty's dominions ;
(ii) the amount arrived at by applying the
fraction four-fifths to the total labour
costs of the film, after deducting there-
from the amount of any payments
which, as part of those costs, have been
paid or are payable in respect of the
labour or services of any two persons
neither of whom was, while engaged
in the making of the film, a British
subject or a person so domiciled, and at
least one of whom was so engaged in the
capacity of an actor or actress, or
(6) in any other case, the amount arrived at
under sub-paragraph
(i) of the preceding paragraph :
Provided that if, upon the application for the
registration, as a British film, of a film in
respect of which the condition imposed by
paragraph (c) of the preceding subsection is
not fulfilled, the Board of Trade are satisfied
that the maker of the film took all reasonable
steps to fulfil the said condition, and that the
non-fulfilment thereof was due to exceptional
circumstances beyond his control, the Board,
if they think fit, may direct that this subsection
shall have effect in relation to that film as
if in paragraph (a) of this subsection for the
words " three-quarters " and the words
" four-fifths " there were respectively sub-
stituted the words " seven-tenths " and the
words " three-quarters."
(3) If, upon an application for the registration
of a film as a British film, the applicant
requests the Board of Trade so to do, the
Board shall, for the purpose of determining
whether the conditions imposed by this
section are fulfilled in respect of the film,
treat the film as if such portions thereof as
may be designated by the applicant, being
portions the length of which does not exceed
in all ten per cent, of the total length of the
film or twenty per cent, of so much of its
total length as consists of photographs of
studio scenes (whichever percentage is the
less), did not form part of the film ; and in
that case the length of the film shall, for the
purpose of the registration thereof, be
deemed to be reduced by the length of the
portions of the film which, by virtue of this
subsection, are to be treated as not forming
part of the film.
(4) Every film registered under this Part of
this Act shall, if the conditions imposed by
subsection (i) of this section are fulfilled in
respect of the film, be registered as a British
film, or, if these conditions are not so fulfilled,
be registered as a foreign film.
26. — Registration of British films as exhibitors'
quota films.
(l) Every film registered under this Part of this
Act as a British film shall be registered as an
exhibitors quota film, unless the total labour
costs of the film are less than ten shillings
per foot.
27. — Power to disregard items of labour costs in
certain circumstances.
If, upon any application for the registration of
a film under this Part of this Act, being an
application in connection with which it is
material to ascertain —
{a) the labour costs of the film, or
(b) the proportion of those costs which
represents payments in respect of the
labour or services of persons of any particular
class,
it appears to the Board of Trade that any
sum which, as part of those costs, is paid or
payable in respect of the labour or services
of any particular person is so great as not to
be a bona fide payment by way of remuneration
for the labour or services in question, the
Board may direct that the said sum shall,
as to the whole or any part of the amount
thereof, be disregarded in ascertaining the
said labour costs or the said proportion thereof,
as the case may be.
28. — Registration of serial films.
(1) Subject to the provisions of the following
subsection, an application for the registration
of any part of a serial film or series of films
may be entertained if three parts of the film
or series have been trade-shown.

Cinematograph Films Council and consideiing
its advice in the matter, may by order direct
that the preceding subsection shall not apply
in relation to any such application for regis-
tration as aforesaid which may be made
during the continuance in force of the order;
and any order under this subsection may be
revoked by a subsequent order of the Board.
(3) If an order is made under the last preceding
subsection, any provision contained in Part
II of this Act which qualifies, in relation to
any serial film or series of films, a restriction
imposed by that Part of this Act shall operate
so as to qualify that restriction in relation
only to the exhibition of such parts (if any)
of a serial film or series of films as are not the
subject of applications for registration made
during the continuance in force of the order.
29. — Prohibition of registration of film exhibited
or registered before commencement of Act.
A film which has been exhibited in Great Britain
to the public before the commencement of
this Act or which has been duly registered
under Part II of the Act of 1927 shall not be
registered under this Part of this Act :
Provided that for the purposes of this section a
film shall not be taken to have been exhibited
to the public by reason only that the film
has been trade-shown.
30. — Corrections of register.
If, at any time after the registration of a film,
the Board of Trade, upon making any such
inquiries as they think desirable, are satisfied
that the film either ought not to have been
registered or is incorrectly registered in any
particular, they shall cause the necessary
deletion or correction to be made in the register
and, if the Board think proper, issue to the
maker of the film, or, if the film has been
acquired by a renter for distribution in Great
Britain, issue to the renter, a certificate of
registration to take the place of any such
certificate previously issued in respect of the
film ; but the Board, if in any particular
case they think fit so to do, may direct that,

extent as may be specified in the direction,
be treated as if the deletion or correction in
the register had not been made.

taken by the Board of Trade for the purpose
of the performance of their duties in relation
to the register, may, subject to rules of court,

Court, and the decision of that court on any
such application shall be final and not subject
to appeal to any other court.
(2) In relation to any person whose principal
place of business is in Scotland, the preceding
subsection shall have effect as if for any
reference therein to the High Court there were
substituted a reference to the Court of Session.

The registration of a film may be proved by the
production of —
(a) a copy of the Boad of Trade Journal
containing a notification of the registration
of the film, or
(b) the certificate of registration issued, or,
as the case may be, last issued in respect
of the film, or
. (c) a copy of the entry in the register relating

The Kinetnato graph Year Book.
The Cinematograph Acts,
1909 and 1952.
As from July 1, 1954, the Cinematograph Act, 1952, comes
into operation . The 1909 Act, as amended , remains in force
and below are printed the two measures with explanatory
notes. So far as possible the layout is intended to show
the manner in which the two Acts affect each other.
CINEMATOGRAPH ACT, 1909
Section I. — No cinematograph exhibition (as
defined in the Cinematograph Act, 1952) shall
be given unless the regulations made by the
Secretary of State for securing safety are
complied with, or, save as otherwise expressly
provided by this Act, elsewhere than in
premises licensed for the purpose in accordance
with the provisions of this Act.
Note. — The opening words of this section have
been amended by the new Act with the result that
there is now no distinction for the purpose of
licensing between inflammable and safety film.
Section 2. (1) A county council may grant
licences to such persons as they think fit to use
the premises specified in the licence for the
purposes aforesaid on such terms and con-
ditions and under such restrictions as, subject
to regulations of the Secretary of State, the
council may by the respective licences
determine.
(2) A licence shall be in force for one year
or for such shorter period as the council on
the grant of the licence may determine,
unless the licence has been previously
revoked as hereinafter provided.
(3) A county council may transfer any licence
granted by them to such other person as
they think fit.
(4) An applicant for a licence or transfer of a
licence shall give not less than seven days'
notice in writing to the county council and
to the chief officer of police of the police area
in which the premises are situated of his
intention to apply for a licence or transfer.
Provided that it shall not be necessary to
give any notice where the application is for
the renewal of ah existing licence held by the
applicant for the same premises.
(5) There shall be paid in respect of the grant,
renewal, or transfer of a licence such fees
as the county council may fix, not exceeding
in the case of a grant or renewal for one
year one pound, or in the case of a grant or
renewal for any less period five shillings for
every month for which it is granted or
renewed, so however that the aggregate of
the fees payable in any year shall not exceed
one pound, or, in the case of transfer, five
shillings.
(6) For the purposes of this Act, the ex-
pressions "police area" and "chief officer
of police," as respects the city of London,
mean the city and the Commissioner of
City Police, and elsewhere have the same
meanings as in the Police Act, 1890.
CINEMATOGRAPH ACT, 1952
Section 1. Subject to the provisions of section
seven of the Act of 1909 and to the exemptions
hereinafter provided, the said Act and (except
so far as they otherwise provide) any regula-
tions made thereunder shall apply as respects
all cinematograph exhibitions, whether given
by means involving the use of inflammable
films or non-inflammable films, or by means
not involving the use of films.
Note. — The above section requires the licensing
of exhibitions given by means of television as well
as by means of film.
Section 2. (1) The matters for which provision
may be made by the regulations of the
Secretary of State under the Act of 1909 shall
be the following : —
(a) safety, in connection with the giving of
cinematograph exhibitions (including
the keeping and handling, in premises
where other entertainments are being
given or meetings held, of cinematograph
film used or to be used for the purposes
of cinematograph exhibitions or other
articles or equipment so used or to be
used) ;
(b) the health and welfare of children in
relation to attendance at cinematograph
exhibitions.
(2) Any statutory instrument containing such
regulations as aforesaid shall be subject to
annulment in pursuance of a resolution of
either House of Parliament.
Note. — This section deals only with those
matters in relation to which Home Office Regulations
may be made. Such regulations may now apply to
exhibitions of both inflammable and non-inflam-
mable. Whether or not a film is inflammable is a
question of fact for the court to determine though
most licensing authorities treat safety stock as
non-inflammable.
Section 3. (1) It shall be the duty of the
licensing authority, in granting a licence
under the Act of 1909 as respects any
premises, —
(a) to impose conditions or restrictions pro-
hibiting the admission of children to
cinematograph exhibitions involving
the showing of works designated, by the
licensing authority or such other body
as may be specified in the licence, as
works unsuitable for children ; and
(b) to consider what (if any) conditions or
restrictions should be imposed as to the
admission of children to other cinemato-
Cinematograph Acts, 1909 and 1952.
509
Cinematograph Act, 1909— contd.
Note. — Until the operation of the new Act, the
Scottish courts held that the licensing authority
could only impose conditions as regard to safety.
The title to the old Act has been amended so that it
now "regulates" cinematograph exhibitions, which
coupled with Si of the 1952 Act will change the
law in Scotland.
Section 3. If the owner of any apparatus uses
the apparatus, or allows it to be used, or if
the occupier of any premises allows those
premises to be used, in contravention of the
provisions of this Act or the regulations made
thereunder, or of the conditions or restrictions
upon or subject to which any licence relating
to the premises has been granted under this
Act, he shall be liable, on summary conviction,
to a fine not exceeding twenty pounds, and in
the case of a continuing offence to a further
penalty of five pounds for each day during
which the offence continues, and the licence
(if any) shall be liable to be revoked by the
county council.
Note. — This section has been amended to cover
any apparatus which would include television.
There has been no change in the penalties the court
can award. It should be noticed that under this
Section penalties may be inflicted on either the
owner or occupier of the kinema who may be a
person or concern other than the licensee.
Section 4. A constable or any officer appointed
for the purpose by a county council may at all
reasonable times enter any premises, whether
licensed or not, in which he has reason to
believe that such an exhibition as aforesaid is
being or is about to be given, with a view to
seeing whether the provisions of this Act and
any restrictions subject to which any licence
has been so granted or any regulations made
thereunder, and the conditions of any licence
granted under this Act, have been complied
with, and, if any person prevents or obstructs
the entry of a constable or any officer ap-
pointed as aforesaid, he shall be liable, on
summary conviction, to a penalty not ex-
ceeding twenty pounds.
Section 5. Refers to power of county councils
to delegate licensing powers to local magis-
trates.
Section 6. County boroughs to have similar
licensing powers to county councils.
Section 7. — (1) Where the premises are premises
licensed by the Lord Chamberlain the powers
of the county council under this Act shall,
as respects those premises, be exerciseable by
the Lord Chamberlain instead of by the
county council.
(2) Where the premises in which it is proposed
to give such an exhibition as aforesaid are
premises used occasionally and exception-
ally only, and not on more than six days in
any one calendar year, for the purposes of
such an exhibition, it shall not.be necessary
to obtain a licence for those premises
under this Act if the occupier thereof has
given to the county council and to the chief
officer of police of the police area, not less
than seven days before the exhibition,
notice in writing of his intention so, to use
Cinematograph Act, 1952— contd.
graph exhibitions involving the showing
of works designated by the authority or
such other body as aforesaid as of such
other description as may be specified in
the licence.
(2) Neither the last foregoing section nor
subsection (i) of this section shall be con-
strued as derogating from the generality
of the power of the licensing authority, as
respects any premises, to impose conditions
or restrictions.
Note. — This section makes it obligatory on the
licensing authority to impose certain conditions
apart from such other conditions or restrictions as
the authority already had power to make under
S2(i) .of the 1909 Act. The general position in
relation to the discretionary powers of licensing
authorities in granting licences and imposing
conditions remains subject to the very impor-
tant section regarding appeals included later.
Section 4. (1) Subject to the provisions of this
Act, no premises shall be used, except with the
consent of the licensing authority, for a
cinematograph exhibition organised wholly or
mainly as an exhibition for children.
(2) Subject to the regulations of the Secretary
of State under the Act of 1909, and without
prejudice to any conditions or restrictions
imposed by the licensing authority on the
granting of a licence, the authority may
impose special conditions or restrictions on the
granting of any consent under this section.
(3) Subsections (2) to (5} of section two of the
Act of 1909 (which contain supplemental
provisions as to licences) shall with the
necessary modifications apply for the
purposes of this section as they apply for
the purposes of the said section two ; and
sections three and four of that Act (which
impose penalties and confer powers of entry
for purposes of inspection) shall have effect
as if references to that Act included
references to this section and references to
licences included references to consents.
Note. — This section, which is now important
and empowers the licensing authority to impose
special conditions in the case of children's perfor-
mances as well as requiring the exhibitor to obtain
special consent for such performances. There is a
right of appeal to quarter sessions against refusal
of consent or against conditions or restrictions
imposed.
Section 5. (1) The following exemptions shall
have effect in the case of cinematograph
exhibitions (hereinafter referred to as
"exempted exhibitions") to which the public
are not admitted or to which the public are
admitted without payment, that is to say : —
(a) a licence under the Act of 1909 shall
not be required by reason only of the
giving of an exempted exhibition, and
for the purposes of subsection (2) of
section seven of that Act (which
exempts premises used only occasionally
for cinematograph exhibitions) the
giving in any premises of an exempted
exhibition shall be disregarded ;
(b) section four of this Act shall not apply
to an exempted exhibition ;
(c) regulations made by the Secretary of
State under the Act of 1909, being
regulations made by virtue of paragraph
510
The Kinematograph Year Book.
Cinematograph Act, 1909— contd.
the premises, and complies with the regula-
tions made by the Secretary of State under
this Act, and, subject to such regulations,
with any conditions imposed by the county
council, and notified to the occupier in
writing.
(3) Where it is proposed to give any such
exhibition as aforesaid in any building or
structure of a moveable character, it shall
not be necessary to obtain a licence under
this Act from the council of the county
in which the exhibition is to be given if
the owner of the building or structure : —
(a) has been granted a licence in respect of
that building or structure by the
council of the county in which he
ordinarily resides, or by any authority
to whom that council may have
delegated the powers conferred on
them by this Act ; and
(b) has given to the council of the county
and to the chief officer of police of the
police area in which it is proposed to give
the exhibition, not less than two days
before the exhibition, notice in writing
of his intention to give the exhibition ;
and
(c) complies with the regulations made by
the Secretary of State under this Act,
and, subject to such regulations, with
any conditions imposed by the county
council, and notified in writing to the
owner.
(4) This Act shall not apply to an exhibition
given in a private dwelling-house to which
the public are not admitted, whether on

of the 1952 Act.

Scotland with suitable modification as to
authorities concerned.
Section 9. Deals with application of Act to
Ireland, etc.
Section 10. Short title and commencement,
i.e., January i. 1910.
Cinematograph Act, 1952— contd.
(b) of subsection (i) of section two of
this Act, shall not apply in relation to an
exempted exhibition, and regulations
made by the Secretary of State under
that Act, being regulations made by
virtue of paragraph (a) of the said
subsection (i), shall not apply in relation
to an exempted exhibition unless given
in premises in respect of which a licence
under the Act of 1909 is in force ;
(d) in connection with the giving of an
exempted exhibition in premises in
respect of which a licence under the Act
of 1909 is in force no condition or
restriction on or subject to which the
licence was granted shall apply except
in so far as it relates to the matters
specified in paragraph (a) of subsection
(1) of section two of this Act :
Provided that (without prejudice to the
operation of paragraph (d) of this subsection)
paragraph (a) thereof shall not have effect in
the case of exhibitions where the pictures are
produced by means specified by regulations of
the Secretary of State under the Act of 1909 as
means involving risk such that it is inexpedient
that the said paragraph (a) should have effect.
(2) For the purposes of this section an
exhibition shall not be treated as an
exempted exhibition if organised wholly
or mainly as an exhibition for children who
are members of a club, society or association
the principal object of which is attendance
at cinematograph exhibitions, so however
that this subsection shall not apply to any
exhibition given in a private dwelling-house
or any exhibition given as part of the
activities of an educational or religious
institution.
(3) Subject to the provisions of the last fore-
going subsection an exhibition given by an
exempted organisation in any premises
shall be treated for the purposes of this
section as an exempted exhibition, not-
withstanding payment for admission
thereto :
Provided that an exhibition shall not be
treated for those purposes as an exempted
exhibition by virtue of this subsection if on
more than three out of the last preceding
seven days the premises in question were
used for the giving of a cinematograph
exhibition which fell to be treated as an
exempted exhibition by virtue of this
subsection.
(4) In the last foregoing subsection the
expression " exempted organisation "
means a society, institution, committee or
other organisation as respects which there
is in force at the time of the exhibition in
question a certificate of the Commissioners
of Customs and Excise certifying that the
Commissioners are satisfied that the
organisation is not conducted or established
for profit.
Note. — Careful note should be taken of sub
clause (2), the effect of which is that children's club
matinees are not to be treated as exempted exhi-
bitions even if the general public are not admitted.
The cases where exempted exhibitions, i.e., free
or private ones, are given in a licensed cinema
particular attention should be paid to SS (i) (e) and
(d).
Section 6. (1) Any person aggrieved-
fa) by the refusal or revocation of a licence
under the Act of 1909 or of a consent
under section four of this Act, or
(b) by any terms, conditions and restrictions
on or subject to which such a licence or
consent is granted,
may appeal to quarter sessions.

(2) Section thirty-one of the Summary
Jursidiction Act, 1879 (which relates to
appeals from courts of summary jurisdiction
to courts of quarter sessions) shall, with the
necessary modifications, apply in relation
to any appeal under this section as if the
decision against which the appeal is brought
were an order of a court of summary
jurisdiction.
(3) Where the decision in question is given
on an application of which (in accordance
with subsection (4) of section two of the
Act of 1909) notice was required to be given
to a chief officer of police, any notice of
appeal under this section against that
decision shall be given to that officer as well
as to any other person to whom it is required
to be given apart from this subsection.
(4) Where a licence under the Act of 1909, or a
consent under section four of this Act, is
revoked, the licence or consent shall be
deemed to remain in force during the period
within which an appeal under this section
may be brought and, if such an appeal is
brought, until the determination or
abandonment of the appeal.
(5) In the application of this section to
Scotland there shall be substituted for the
reference to quarter sessions a reference
to the sheriff, and subsection (2) shall be
omitted.
Section 7. (1) A licence shall not be required
for any premises under any enactment for the
regulation of places kept' or ordinarily used
for public dancing, singing, music or other
public entertainment of the like kind by reason

playing music, dancing or singing or which
otherwise includes oris accompanied by music.
(2) For the purposes of this section any music
played in any premises by way of intro-
duction to, in any interval between parts of,
or by way of conclusion of, a cinematograph
exhibition or in the interval between two
cinematograph exhibitions shall be treated
as music accompanying the exhibition or
exhibitions, as the case may be, if the total
time taken by music so played on any day
amounts to less than one quarter of the
total time taken by the cinematograph
exhibition or exhibitions given in the
premises on that day.
Note. — The limitation on time occupied by
interval music should be noted if the exemption
from the requirement for a music and dancing
licence is to be claimed.
If the cinema is occasionally used for concerts or
other similar functions or cine variety is staged a
licence will be necessary.

HOME OFFICE REGULATIONS
TN the House of Commons on March 4, 1954.
-^-the Home Secretary stated that it was hoped
to bring into operation the Cinematograph Act,
1952 on July 1, 1954. The new Cinematograph
Regulations to be issued by the Home Office
will then become effective but at the time of
going to press these had not been published.
When the new regulations become effective,
the previous regulations SR & O 1923 No. 938
as amended, and Statutory Instrument 1950
No. 2133 as amended will be repealed. But
any licence granted prior to the repeal will not
be subject to any more stringent conditions
than may have been imposed at the time it was
granted.
Separate sets of conditions will be issued for
(a) England and Wales, and (b) Scotland.
The expectation is that the new regulations
will fall into separate sections as follows : —
A. Regulations applicable to all Cine-
matograph Exhibitions. — These will apply to
all kinematograph exhibitions for which a
licence under the Cinematograph Acts 1909
and 1952 is required irrespective of whether
the film used is (a) inflammable or safety, or
(b) 35mm. or sub-standard. .It is expected
that matters covered will be the provision,
construction and marking of exits, the
arrangement of seating and gangways, the
provision and duties of attendants, fire pre-
cautions, the construction and operation of
projection rooms and projection apparatus,
the use of projectors situate in the auditorium,
the structure of the premises, lighting and
various electrical requirements.
B. Additional regulations applicable when
inflammable film is used. — These regulations
will apply when film other than safety stock
is used and in effect will require to be observed
in all kinemas in which inflammable film is
used only for occasional shows. Matters
dealt with are likely to include special safety
precautions for projection and rewind rooms
and electrical and projection apparatus.
C. Regulations applicable to occasional
performances. — In certain cases it is probable
that some of the ordinary regulations will be
relaxed, dependent on the seating capacity
provided and the frequency of the occasional
exhibitions on the premises in question.
D. Addition regulations will have to be
observed when television exhibitions are given.
THE LEGAL OUTLOOK-continued from page 494.
no way conditional on the purchase
of viewers.
Persons admitted to the kinema
must be recognised as having the
right to use viewers already in
their possession.
The sale of viewers must be an
outright sale, i.e. under no cir-
cumstances (except voluntary
abandonment of the viewers on
the premises) will the exhibitor
take back the viewers into his
possession.
The introduction in the House of
Commons of the Landlord and
Tenant Bill will, as and when the
Bill becomes law, go a long way to
clearing up a matter of doubt in
relation to the right of a lessee
exhibitor to claim security of tenure
of his kinema. Under the Landlord
and Tenant Act, 1927, the position
of a kinema was by no means clear.
It is intended that the new Bill
should apply to all business premises
which includes premises occupied by
a tenant wholly or partly for the
purpose of a business carried on by
him.
The Bill provides that in the
absence of agreement between the
parties the Court shall have power
to order a new tenancy of up to
fourteen years and at the same time
to state the conditions applicable
and rent payable. In fixing the
rent, the Court is to pay regard to
what might reasonably be expected
to be the rent of the premises if let
in the open market by a willing
landlord.
For those exhibitors or potential
exhibitors who have been looking
forward to the day when the building
of new kinemas becomes generally
possible, the passing of the Town and
Country Planning Act, 1953, will be
a welcome step. Under that Act,
development charges for new con-
struction begun on or after November
18, 1952, were abolished. Not only
does this affect new buildings but
also alterations to existing buildings
or the change of use of buildings.
The greater part of the Town and
Country Planning Act, 1947 however,
remains in force including the provi-
sions and regulations regarding the
display of advertisements. Planning
permission is required for all outside
poster sites and that permission can
be refused on the grounds of amenity,
safety, etc. Permission when granted,
however, is normally of three years'
duration.

ENTERTAINMENTS TAX
The existing scale of Entertainments Duty
applicable to Kinemas as provided by the
Finance Act, 1952, appears on another page.
On the same page is shown the amount of levy
payable by exhibitors on each admission to the
British Film Production Fund under the Eady
Plan.
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
performers are under sixteen and are
scholars or ex-scholars of the school or
institution.
In the case of a charity performance where the
whole of the expenses are deducted, but do not
exceed 50 per cent, of the receipts, the duty is
repaid to the proprietor.
Exemption is also granted under the Finance
Acts, 1948 and 1949, in respect of certain
Kinemas in rural areas. In these cases the
Customs and Excise have to be satisfied that
the entertainment is held in a building in a
borough, urban district or rural parish
within the meaning of the Local Government
Act, 1933, being a borough, etc., with a
population not exceeding 2,000 or 640 to the
square mile, and further that seating capacity
for more than 400 persons cannot be provided
in the building.
Under certain circumstances a reduced rate of
duty is payable if Kine-variety is presented.
For details, reference should be made to the
Finance Act, 1950.
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.
Any officer of excise authorised to do so may
enter a place of entertainment and any person
who prevents or obstructs him is liable to a
fine up to £20.
The Commissioners can make regulations, any
breach of which entails an excise penalty
of £50, and they may make arrangements
whereby the local authority (county, borough,
or urban district council), or the police may
exercise all or any of the powers of the Com-
missioners as to this duty. The law is
contained in the Finance (New Duties) Act,
1916, ss. i and 2.

Taxation and Film Hire
Payments to the fund by exhibitors are an
allowable charge both for taxation and film
hire. In the case of contracts on sharing
terms, the levy will be deducted as a prior
charge from the gross takings in renters'
returns in a manner similar to the deduction
of Entertainments Tax.

THE CELLULOID ACT
An Act known as " The Celluloid and Cine-
matograph Film Act of 1922 " has been
passed to make better provision for the pre-
vention of fire in premises where raw celluloid
or kinematograph films are stored or used.
The purposes to which this Act applies are : —
(1) The keeping or storing of raw celluloid —
(a) In quantities exceeding at any one time
one hundredweight ; or
(6) In smaller quantities unless kept (except
when required to be exposed for the purpose
of the work carried on in the premises)
in a properly closed metal box or case ; and
(2) The keeping or storing of kinematograph
film-
fa) In quantities exceeding at any one time
twenty reels or eighty pounds in weight, or
(6) In smaller quantities unless each reel
is kept (except when required to be exposed
for the purpose of the work carried on in the
premises) in a separate and properly closed
metal box or case : —
Provided that : —
(i) For the purpose of this Act, kine-
matograph film shall be deemed to be
kept in any premises where it is tempor-
arily deposited for the purpose of exam-
ination, cleaning, packing, re-winding or
repair, but celluloid or kinematograph
film shall not be deemed to be kept or
stored in any premises where it is tem-
porarily deposited whilst in the course of
delivery, conveyance or transport ; and
(ii) The provisions of this Act shall not,
except in the cases referred to in para-
graphs (c), (d) and (e) of Subsection
(1) of Section 1 thereof, apply to premises
to which the Factory and Workshop
Acts, 1901 to 1920, apply. Nor do the
provisions of this Act apply to premises
licensed under the Cinematograph Act,
1909. It should be pointed out, how-
ever, that under this Act any Officer duly
authorised by a local authority may at
any time take for analysis sufficient
samples of any material which he suspects
to be or to contain Celluloid.

Theatre Sales.
Board of Trade survey for second quarter 1951
shows that 4,597 kinemas operated some sales.
The total gross receipts of items sold during the
quarter was £3,498,200. Ice cream and drinks
and confectionery together represented
£2,827,500 (3,681 kinemas were operating these
sales) and tobacco sales amounted to £670,700
(and involved 2,369 kinemas).
Circuits with over 50 kinemas took £1,754,800
on sales other than tobacco (1,128 kinemas were
in this group) and £405,300 for tobacco sales
(1,069 kinemas were in this group).
During the quarter this represented 2.8d. per
patron for all sales. The pence per patron was
o.8d. in small kinemas and 3-4d. in the larger
theatres. In the London and Home Counties
area the sales were as high as 3-sd. a head.
Sales were thus being operated in one in nine
kinemas.
Recent estimates reaching the " Kine ' ' indicate
that pence per head are slightly up and are (at
January 1954) about 3d. per patron. Ice cream
is believed to represent about two thirds of all
sales. In the current year the value of soft
drinks sales is expected to be £1,800,000 gross.
Profit margin on ice cream, soft drinks, nuts and
some confectionery is high.
Advertising
The Board of Trade estimates that in 1938
£570,000 was spent by advertisers on placing
advertisements in kinemas. Screen advertising
was estimated to be at a level of £2,190,000 in
1948, of which about £1,750,000 was the amount
believed to be going to exhibitors.
EADY SCHEME
Started September 1950 with payment of Jd.
a seat to British Film Production Fund. Year
ending August 4, 195 1, brought in total of
£1,197,841 leaving £1,180,244 for distribution
after expenses paid. Payments made to British
producers against net receipts from box-office,
averaged about 15 per cent. " bonus payment "
against returns. Maximum payment for a
feature was £32,000. About 4,300 kinemas
contributed, average £6 week each kinema.
449 feature and 554 shorts benefited. Short
film maximum benefit was £3,654 a picture.
Second year of scheme provided payments id.
a seat up to is. then Jd. on all seats. Producers
received about 50 per cent, on gross as " bonus."
During the first three years of the Eady scheme
(up to August, 1953) £6,051,820 has been
distributed.
In the three-year period G.F.D. received
£1,741,683, British Lion £933,622, Associated
British-Pathe £748,122 (a total to the " big-
three " of £3,423,427).
Of the total distributed in 1953, £2,211,956
was paid to 61 companies on account of 588
features and £257,403 was paid to 95 companies
on account of 689 films under 3,500 ft. In the
second year of the fund features received a
bonus equivalent to 44 percent, of gross receipts.
By December 1953 the bonus had been reduced
to 34 per cent.
A full summary of " Where the Eady Money
Goes" appeared in the " Kine." on November
26, 1953, pages 3 and 6.

(See notes below.)
NOTES ON IMPORT DUTY.
(1) In the case of film of a greater width than
the standard width of ij 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.
Import Duty.
521
(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.
IK3) 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
(6) that the Board of Trade have certified
that the requirements of subsection (3) of
section twenty-seven of the Cinematograph
Films Act, 1937 (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
»ot 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) (i) Where in the case of any exposed cine-
matograph film security is given to the satis-
faction of the Commissioners —
