PROTESTS WITHDRAWAL
OF 'AFFAIR BLUM'
To the Editor:
For some strange reason the
people of Detroit have been de-
prived of the right to see "The
Affair Blum," one of the finest
films on anti-Semitism ever pro-
duced.
With a great deal of advance
publicity "The Affair Blum"
opened at the Cinema on Feb. 15.
It was favorably reviewed by the
local papers. Yet on Feb. 17, the
movie was discontinued.
Upon discovering this I called
the manager of the Cinema. He
claimed the box office receipts
were exceptionally poor. He also
informed me that the decision to
pull the film came from New
York. (The Cinema is owned by
a New York concern.)
The film may be undesirable
to some because it deals frankly
with the question of anti-Semi-
tism. When our government wel-
comes into this country such men
as Herman Abs, a financial power
in the Hitler regime; when it
gives to Nazis high posts in the
West German government, one
cannot help but wonder whether
it will not also apply pressure
to restrict the showing of films
which may be too harsh on our
newly found friends and their
ideology.
