Fredric | | cast that includes such outstanding | | cerformers as Florence Eidridge,! | Francis L. Sullivan, Linden Travors | | ind Kathleen Ryan. | Chief responsibility for translating to the screen the historical drama | of the discovery of America was | shared by the produc A. Frnnk ‘Eundy, and the director, Davia Macdonald. They led the preduct on unit—actors, cameramen, make-up artists, property men and techni- dians—to Barbados, where much of the filming was done on authentic West Indian location. Scenes reproducing the magnifi- cence of the Spanish Court during ‘he reign of Ferdinand and Isa- cella were constructed on the studio | sound stages. There, the actors were attired in some of the richest per- lod costumes the screen has ever| seen. At Barbados were scenes of Columbus' explorations, and his ocean voyages. The latter sequences were staged on replicas of two of the explorer's ships, the “Santa Maria” and the “Nina.” “Christopher Columbus™ was years in preparation, with a large staff conducting - exhaustive re- search to insure the highest pos- sible degree, of realism. The his- torical material they compiled gov- erned every stage of the picture’s production. The film traces Columbus's years of disappointment in Spain when people laughed at his contention that the world was round, and his moment of vindication and triumph when he first sets foot in the New World.

(CurfainDown On Info Out fo Iron Curfain| WASHINGTON, Nov. 10—(®—The | Commerce Department announced a “voluntary” plan today to keep |important, though non-secret, | American technical information lfmm going out to Russia and her | satellites. While iron curtain countries were not mentioned in the announce- ment the aim was obvious. Under the plan, persons or firms thinking of exporting ‘“advanced technical data which may be im- portant to national security” are asked to hold off until they get an “official opinion” from the depart- ment on the desirability of trans- mitting the data. ! Simultaneously, the department slapped another 60 classes of | “highly strategic” goods under rigid lexpert license control to prevent reshipment from original destina- tions to the Soviet bloc. | Russia and her satellites have (been banned since March, 1948, from getting direct from the U.S. industrial goods which might add |to their war potential. The government is now seeking |to tlock chances of such goods get- Iting to the iron curtain sector inj | | | a roundabout way by re-shipments from such spots as Communist!
