WORLD FILM & FINE ARTS FESTIVAL IN BRUSSELS
are more often working on the writer, rather than with him and finally, if expedient, they work around him.
The fact that my positive experiences give me the confidence to proceed now with production plans of my own, does not mean that these experiences are the less necessary for the writer who has no such intentions.
As fifteen months go, these have been hard and long.
They have convinced me that this is where I belong. I am grateful to those who made my coming possible. A community of working artists is a good thing. It makes the individual know that he is never alone. Making this point through Assigned to Treasury is what brought me to Hollywood in the first place. I am glad to be here.

World Film &. Fine Arts Festival at Brussels
June 1-30 are the dates of the World Film and Fine Arts Festival to take place at Brussels. The daily program, as recently made public in its tentative form, calls for concerts or related film music by Virgil Thomson, Aaron Copeland, Leonard Bernstein, George Gershwin, Benjamin Britten, and others; discussions (with Eric Johnston, William Wyler, Louis de Rochemont, Ingrid Bergman and others participating) ; and daily film showings from June 8 to June 27.
The U. S. industry will, as can be seen by the above, be much more adequately represented than it was last year at Cannes. But a look at the program appears to reveal that screen writers, as such, receive, if possible, even less attention than they did there.
Following excursions on June 28-29 to Liege, Spa and that landmark of recent vintage, Bastogne, there will be awards of prizes and closing ceremonies on June 30.
Eleven countries had, at this writing, signified their intention of showing films at Brussels. Their entries, as announced so far, are:
U. S.: Down to Earth, Song of the South, The Yearling, To Each His Own, It's a Wonderful Life, The Razor s Edge, The Best Years of Our Lives, The Egg and I, Hinnoresque, and one entry from United Artists and one from an independent producer;
Great Britain : The Courtneys of Curzon Street, plus five entries from the British Film Producers' Association ;
France: Le Diable au corps, Le silence est d'or (Golden Silence), Le Bataillon du ciel;
Poland : The Dragon of Wavel Castle, Parvel and Farvel, Land of Lubusza, Black Gold, Victory Parade (all shorts) ;
Switzerland: The Reign of Matto, Citizen and Peasant;
Argentina: Life of Albeniz, Kreutzer Sonata;
Belgium: Mr. Wens' Trumps, The Pilgrim to Hell;
Italy, Czechoslovakia, Mexico, Greece : Titles to be
announced.
