'Degrading' Films Harming Youth"
Cardinal Tardini noted that "it is unfortunately a notorious fact that every year sees an increase in the number of immoral films, and the first victims of these bad spectacles are the less well protected and more impressionable souls, the souls of the young."
The cardinal acknowledged that "the education of youth depends primarily on the family and the church."
But, he declared, "the civil authority, for its part, cannot ignore the spiritual welfare of young people."
