„I am not surprised at the ban“

Editorial content. „Chaplin Answers Hitler, Duce

      Ban Of New Picture

      SINGAPORE, Straits Settlements, April 7. (U.P.) – Charles

Chaplin was just trying to be funny when he made his

latest movie, Modern Times, he said today, when he heard that

Germany and Italy have banned it as Communistic.

      He returned with Paulette Goddard, his co-star, by airplane

from Java. Miss Goddard was wearing a wedding ring

but no engagement ring. Neither would admit that, as reported,

they married on the way here by steamship from

the Far East.

      ,Dictators seem to believe the picture is Communistic,‘

he said. ,It‘s absolutely untrue. In view of the recent

happenings, I am not surprised at the ban. But our only

purpose was to amuse. I have no political aims

whatever as an actor. And anything Communistic would

be quickly stamped out in the United States.‘“
