Orthodox Call `Hiding Place
a 'Missionary Production'

NEW YORK (JTA) — It
appeared unlikely that the
New York City Department
of Consumer Affairs will
take any action on a request
by an Orthodox Jewish or-
ganization that the film,
"The Hiding Place," be la-
belled as a missionary
movie.
A spokesman for Con-
sumer Affairs Commis-
sioner Elinor.Guggenhei-
mer said that the
department is investigating
the complaint made by Agu -
dath Israel of America that
"newspaper advertisements
misrepresent the film as

$9.75 per person based on double occupancy

being commercial entertain-
ment on a Holocaust theme,
when actually it is an out-
and-out missionary tract
with, a hard-sell evangelical
pitch."

The spokesman said, how-
ev' er, there is no law which
requires the producer's
name to be on advertise-
ments for the film.
_
"The -Hiding Place,"
which is based on a book
written by Corrie ten
Boom, a Dutch-Christian
woman, who helped save
some Jews during the Nazi
occupation and was her-
self arrested and tortured
by the Nazis, is produced
by World Wide Pictures, a
subsidiary of the Billy
Graham Evangelistic As-
sociation.
• In its complaint to the
Consumer Affairs Depart-
ment, Agudath Israel de-
manded that newspaper
advertisements say the film
is a "Billy Graham evangel-
ist production" and that the
theaters where -it is shown
are leased by the Graham
organization. In addition,
Agudath Israel and several
other Jewish organizations
have complained that mis-
sionary literature is being
distributed in the theater
lobbies to unsuspecting film
goers.
However, Rabbi Marc H.
Tanenbaum,' national direc-
tor of the American Jewish
Committee's interreligious
affairs department, said he
does not believe the intent of
the film itself is to convert
Jews to Christianity. He
said that officiAls of World
Wide Pictures have stressed
to him that the film, which
is being shown throughout
the country, is aimed at
Christians not Jews.
As for the missionary
tracts being distributed in
the lobby, World Wide
claims that this is being
done by local grouPs in each
community, according to
Tanenbaum. He said the
producers have promised to'
send a letter to all theaters
asking that this practice be
stopped.
However, Tanenbaum
said that despite its inten-
tions, the film does prove to
be offensive to Jews. He said
the- film shows Christian
faith as being strong with-
out showing anything of the
strong Jewish faith that
sustained many Holocaust
victims.
In addition, he said, the
film uses the Holocaust as a
prop or foil for showing the
greatness of Christianity.
