DeMille Says His New
Film on Moses Is Most
Dramatic He Ever Made

HOLLYWOOD, (AJP)
Vet-
eran film producer Cecil B. De-
Mille told the AJP correspon-
dent with enthusiasm that he
believes his new film on the life
of Moses, "The Ten Command-
ments," will be the best he has
made in his whole life's career
as a producer. "It should inspire
future generations," he declared.
Calling Moses "the, fountain-
head from which three great re
ligions flow." DeMille said that
the story "we are filming is the
most dramatic I have encoun-
tered in my 40 years of motion-
picture making." It will show
"Moses as the Prince of Egypt,
outlaw shepherd and voice of
God."
"The three gikeat religions,"
DeMille said, "face a common
enemy today. But they also have
a common bond in their devo-
tion to the one God revealed to
Moses at the burning bush. I
hope that our production may
contribute to a realization of
that unity of brotherhood which
ought tc flow from it;"

Anti-Semitism Exposed
In Blanshard's Book

Paul Blanshard, whose sensa-
tional "American Freedom and
Catholic Power" stirred the em-
otions of many people, in his
new challenge to the Catholic
Church, in his book "The Irish
and Catholic Power," like., its
predecessor also published by
Beacon Press, makes the point
that "if America ever becomes
Catholic, Ireland will be the liv-
ing model."
Mr. Blanshard contends that-
under Catholic rule. there would
be no divorce, no birth control,
that the public school system
would be influenced by church
aspirations. He even claims that
there are tendencies from Cath-
olic quarters to promote anti-
Semitism. He accuses Father
Fahey of having distributed the
famous anti-Semitic forgery,
"The Protocols of the Elders of
Zion" and of having charged
that "the Communist Revolu-
tion in Russia was the work of
Jews," suggesting that "Marx-
ism is simply one of the wea-
pons of Jewish nationalism."
He •recalls the activities of
Father Coughlin, compares, him.
to the "Hero-agitator of the
present decade," Senator Mc-
Carthy; and states that the
"s o b e r and constructive ele-
ments" among Irish Catholics
who oppose McCarthy "are in a
distinct minority."
On the latter point we are in-
clined to disagree with Mr.
Blanshard. As in the case of
Coughlin, upon whom "the Vat-
ican frowned," we believe that
most Catholics also frown upon
McCarthy.
The threat of segregated edu-
cation is the most serious one
posed in the book, especially in
view of recent efforts to intro-
duce religious studies in our
schools. But Protestants, too,
are guilty of sponsoring it, and
some Jews also have been mis-
led by "release time" proposals
for Bible studies, Therefore we
feel that the Blanshard warn-
ings need not be limited to
the Catholic hierarchy, but also
are applicable to other faiths
whose adherents would be
threats to our democracy if they
acquired political power.
