CHICAGO, Feb. 11.—Undesirables in the moving picture world will be “lopped off like rotten branches,” Carl Laemmle, producer, said today in a statement discussing the Taylor murder. “One hundred million American dol- lars invested in moving pictures: are endangered by the acts of a dozen or so wastreln and degenerates,” he said. “Ninety-nine per cent .of the film personnel is clean and sound. We do} not intend to allow the infinitesmil minority to wreck the business. No producer wants to employ people like that. They will be lopped off like rotten branches. “There is nothing wrong with Hollywood—the trouble les with only ® very few degenerates. I think so much of Hollywood that I am going to build a home there and I have a 20-year-old daughter. I have no fear] that anything in Hollygpod will in- fluence her wrongly.” In New York City there are more MRS.
