McCarthy, chairman of the ad vertlBlng advisory council of the Hays organization.. : "It undoubtedly will tend to de crease the production of criminal pictures." McCarthy said. Hays' action, announced yesterday, not only prohibited the making of a Dllllngcr picture by companies In his oigitnlKatlon, but also banned their distribution or exhibit of such a film. "It means," McCarthy said, "that If rome company outside this oran Izatlcn makes a Dillinger film, they would have no plnce to show It." The Hays organization represents 00 per cent of the Industry. McCarthy snld. providing true shock J ess steering, he ea!d. Also, the spring units are en tirely enclosed; Chevrolet units are pcrminentaly and entirely lubricated beca use t h ey ope ra te In a ba t h of lubricating fluid; the construction prevents excessive change In tread or "tire scrubbing"; and the unit i much simpler in construction.
