Feb. 16, 1935 : Carl Laemmle Anniversary Jubilee 3 FORWARD! About a year and a half ago we met something even newer than sound. It was the Code! Today I do not know whether the Code is a good thing or just an extra expense. I welcomed it because it was an Administration experiment — and I am incurably in favor of the Administration of our national government, democratic or republican. I am still willing to give it an honest trial in the hope that it may bring good to all of us. Tomorrow — next week — next year — something new will turn up to occupy our minds and to make us use our thinking apparatus. Whatever it may be, it will keep us looking forward. I sincerely thank Cod that although I am nearing the age of seventy, I can still look forward more than backward. As a man who probably is older than you are, will you take this tip from me:— You are never too old to look ahead. Keep planning. Keep hoping. It is the only thing in the human world which will keep your chin above water, come weal or woe! In conclusion, let me thank those thousands of exhibitors who are participating actively in my present anniversary celebration. They are doing me a wonderful honor. And I am still looking forward!
