The Censor's Office provides for censoring films bearing on hygiene.
The « Centre of Hygiene Propaganda » arranges for the supply of the requisite films, preparing the subjects and giving them local colour. The films are produced by Hungarian firms as a rule, but foreign films are frequently acquired, when they are of a nature to be of use in the propaganda.
The films contained in the archives of the « Centre of Hygiene Propaganda » are lent free of charge to those desiring them. The office has drawn up a complete catalogue of the film material in its possession.

The Board of Hygiene and Social Welfare of Angora informs us that none of the government offices have a section charged with cinematograph propaganda, which is dealt with exclusively by the « Direction of Statistics and Publications » connected with the Board of Hygiene.
The new law on hygiene contains a special paragraph dealing with propaganda by means of the cinematograph.
The Health Offices in the different provinces receive cinematograph films from the central authorities and put them, at the disposal of the communal authorities, who, turn by turn, arrange for them to be presented to the public for periods varying from 6 to 15 days according to the density of the population. These spectacles are explained and illustrated by the medical officers of health. Systematic hygiene and social welfare propaganda by means of the cinematograph is also carried on in elementary and secondary schools ; this is conducted under the direction of the medical officers of the schools, the head masters and teachers, who, in addition to illustrating the films by practical explanations, distribute pamphlets to the scholars dealing with the principal rules of hygiene, which are published by the Ministry of Public Education.
Industrial and commercial firms in Turkey are also beginning to make use of the film for purposes of hygiene propaganda among their employes.
There is not at present a scientific censorship for this type of film.
The greater number of the films are acquired in the United States, but a certain number are also bought from some of the European producers.
