210 JUVENILE DELINQUENCY Some people in the audience have good ideas and good thoughts. I have had 2 or 3 questions sent up here which are very, very good ones. If anyone else in the audience thinks they have something worthwhile to contribute, I would rather prefer that they write me a little note about it because we want to get along, but if they don't feel they can write, just let me know, and I will give them a chance. STATEMENT OF EOGER ALBRIGHT, DIRECTOR, DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATIONAL SERVICE, MOTION PICTURE ASSOCIATION OF AMERICA, LOS ANGELES, CALIF. Mr. Albright, you are the director of the Department of Educational Services of the Motion Picture Association of America, and this is another branch of the overall organization headed up by Mr. Eric Johnston. Mr. Albkight. That is right, sir. Chairman Kefaitvter. And how long have you been head of the educational services ? Mr. Albright. For 8 years, sir, and prior to that I was with the association as assistant to the director of community service. This was a type of program which has a similar function in the overall setup of our association. Chairman Kefauver. Mr. Bobo, do you want to bring anything out about the size of the staff he has before he reads or tells us about his statement ? Mr. Bobo. Your statement sets forth the size of your staff ? Mr. Albright. It doesn't happen to, and I shall be glad to describe that. I have my offices in Washington where there are three of us, myself, and assistant and secretary and then in addition to that we have in New York City an office where there are 9 peo]^le, 4 of whom are professional staff and 5 of them are secretarial staff in New York. Mr. BoBO. Mr. Albright, I think you have a statement which ex- plains the work which you do there. Do you wish to read your statement ? Mr. Albright. Yes, thank you, Mr. Bobo. So far our discussion has been in the area of what some people may think a motion picture has, contributes to juvenile delinquency. There has been for many j^ears a program through which the industry has consciously been trying to exert an influence in the other direction. It takes a long time to tell it, and I thought it would be better to re- duce it to writing. Chairman Kefatater. All right, Mr. Albright, you proceed in your own way. Just talk so that everybody can hear you. Mr. Albright. Mr. Chairman, my name is Roger Albright. My business address is 1600 Eye Street, Washington, D. C.
