War Standards for Motion Picture Equipment and Processes

The U. S. Army Pictorial Service on September 24, 1943, requested the Engineering Vice-President of the Society of Motion Picture Engineers to consider immediately the preparation of a group of Performance Specifications for motion picture equipment, accessories, and processes. It was emphasized that even though the request was initiated by the Army Pictorial Service, actually the request came from the Armed Forces represented by the U. S. Army Signal Corps, U. S. Army Air Forces, U. S. Army Engineer Corps, Bureau of Aeronautics, U. S. Navy, and U. S. Marine Corps. As the request was most urgent, an informal meeting of the Committee on Standards of the SMPE was called by the Chairman arid the Engineering Vice-President to be held on September 27, 1943.
