I Salem, Oregon, Thursday, December 13, 1956 Censors Make first Revision Of Film Codt 5 NEW YORK Movie indur fry censors have revised thi movie code lor the first time sincr it was adopted in 1930. i'New standards, stricter in somi lenses and more lenient in others were announced yesterday by the Motion Picture Assn. of America the movie industry's self-imposei censoring board. The regulation! arc known familiarly s th? "Hays Code" because of theii adoption while the late Will H. Hays was president of the asso ciation. Eric Johnston, president of the MPAA, in announcing some 20 changes, said the new code "is already in effect Hollywood has been advised." 'Johnston and Ken Clark, vice president of the association, said it was not possible to "character lie or sloganize" the effect of the revision. Johnston said, however, he thought the code was "more flexible" than the older one. The new code permits the treat ment, "within the limits of good taste," of such subjects as abor tion, the kidnaping of children and the illegal traffic in and use of narcotics. At the same time, It adds "Thou halt nots" in the form of mercy killing, blasphemy and double meanings. - Under a general section entitled "aex," the new code specifically bans "open-mouth kissing," add ing this to a section that already forbids "lustful kissing, lustful embraces, suggestive posture and features." The new code followed almost a year of study and countless con aultations by a committee of film company executives appointed by Johnston.
