Uruguay
Agitation — None against American films. The project to take all moving picture theaters under Government ownership and management has been shelved. A government-owned theater showed a series of French films for which it has contracted, but although this series met with popularity, it is not expected that the experiment will be repeated.
Censorship — Under Theater Inspection Department of the Montevideo City Government. Practically nil ; has not been invoked for years.
Competition — 65-75% American films shown.
Copyright Relations — Inter-American Copyright Convention, Buenos Aires, August 11, 1910. Ratified July 13, 1914.
Production— Restricted solely to newsreels on local subjects, and these not particularly successful. .
Taxes — Moderate. Importers having great difficulty obtaining foreign exchange. Films classed as luxury, practically all exchange granted for import of necessities. Importers must purchase exchange in "bootleg market" at prices running from 30 to 50% over official rate. No ship
