14. Harris & Ewing Hayes office General Counsel protests Neely Bill to regulate movie sales. Washington, D.C., April 3. Charles C. Pettijohn, general counsel for the Hayes office, movieland's self-censoring group, was on of the first witnesses before the Senate Interstate Commerce Subcommittee which heard actor Robert Montgomery this morning. Gesturing wildly, he eloquently pleaded against passage of Senator Neely's bill to prohibit 'block booking' and 'blind selling', movie trade practices which remove theater owner's choice in selecting his movie bill. He offered to bring Walt Disney before the Committee to prove the disastrous effects of the bill if made law, saying that the biggest hits are seldom expected by either producers or theater managers. General Hollywood expert opinion was that 'Snow white and the Seven Dwarfs' would never sell, he said. 4-3-39

15. Water buffalos of Roumania. When you get to Roumania you are into the Orient, with its color and its Eastern atmosphere. In Roumania, for example, you first run across the water buffalo of the east. This is a land of strange contrasts. The water buffalo may be seen in dragging a plow. While in the adjoining farmland some enterprising chap is trying out a baby tractor. In the streets of Bucharest, great white oxen with sweeping horns drag rude peasant wagons along utterly indifferent to the honking of automobiles that may be either American, German, French, or Italian, or the well known flivver of the U.S. which has become international. In many sections of Roumania the transportation crisis has become so acute that yokes of oxen are extremely valuable in hauling needed supplies. It was the transportation tie-up, caused by depreciation of railroad equipment, that added to the country's misery and made American Red Cross relief supplies, brought in with whatever means of transportation offered itself, very welcome
