Existence: November 1968

General Note: Readersview: 'We heartily support your objective of getting the Joint Committee on Printing to amend its thinking on this important subject of credit lines.'
Viewpoint: The huge Armed Forces Audio-Visual Communications Conference looked like it was going to be an enormous success. But it was a talking session, and photographers shouldn't be talked to all the time. There has to be a time for doing, too.
Newsviews: The Budget Bureau has authorized the National Archives and Records Service to act as the single agency for cataloging all government-produced unclassified motion pictures, film strips, slides, sound recordings, and videotapes, and making them available for sale to the public.
Movies in Government: Marquees don't show it, Hollywood knows little about it, the late show hasn't got it, and nobody is selling tickets. Still, the U.S. government is the biggest film producer in the country- to the tune of some $100 million annually.
Portfolio: Willard B. Bass
Government Photograph Tests: The Koni-Omega Rapid, the large format camera that's a fast-handler; and the Beseler Topcon Super-D, a complete 35mm system in wide use in the government.
Product News: A round-up of new photographic supplies and equipment.
Newsview Special: The Oxberry 5117 Special Effects Step Optical Printer.
