Film censorship and duties surface in Brisbane interview
Commonwealth Film Censor W A C O'Reilly in Brisbane says only overseas films faced censorship with eight per cent passing Sydney. Imports totaled 1766 with 1585 American and 14% from the United Kingdom. Most cuts affected feature films while rejections were confined to that class. Duty on film was 14d per foot, Hellish films paid 1d. Abolition of duty on Drigh films expected soon. Parliament debates classification for adult audiences though. Duties last year amounted to £130,895.
