Joseph Breen, administrator of motion picture production code of ethics at meeting with his deputies in Hollywood, California.

Joseph I. Breen, administrator of motion picture production code of ethics at a meeting with his deputies in Hollywood, California. Breen was appointed by William H Hays who was the president of the Motion Picture Producers and Distributors of America at the time. At the Production Code Administration meeting he speaks about importance of assuring that Hollywood films include stories with power, and punch, and backbone, but that they must at the same time be on the lookout for movie scenes, or action, or dialog which are likely to give offense. Regarding morality in films, he says "the responsible men in this industry want no such pictures and will not allow these to be shown." He speaks of the Production Code Administration, and says that no single person should argue on censorship, and that there won't be one man censorship, but rather a censor board of experienced professionals. (The group's work became known as the "Hays Code" and was a precursor approach to modern motion picture ratings.)
