<i>Title:</i> From left, Congressman Simeon D. Fess, Senator William S. Kenyon, and Col. Arthur Woods, taken 11/17/21. Wood was chairman of the Americanism Committee of the Motion Picture Industry, a group formed at the request of the Secretary of the Interior and the joint Congressional Committee on Education in January 1920 to study the accomplishments of the motion picture industry in spreading American propaganda by both making and distributing Americanism pictures and in cooperating with patriotic societies in the preparing of special films for schools, churches, colleges, and welfare societies. Woods is presenting a report of the Americanism Committee to the two members of the joint Congressional Committee. Background information is from an article on page 143 of the December 24, 1921 <i>Exhibitors Herald</i> which used a similar photograph of the three men.
