Florida Senate Okays Film Law With State Advisory Panel
Tallahassee June 1 The Florida Senate passed a measure to make it unlawful to exhibit films not approved by the national board of review or the New York board and to allow the governor to appoint three Florida citizens to the advisory committee. The House approved 60 to 8. Schools churches chambers and educational uses are exempt. The act aligns with a long dispute between federated clubs and exhibitors. The national board, formed in 1909 by the People’s Institute of New York, aims to guide content and remove objectionable material.
